The Economic Resource Receipt Of New Mothers, Laura Nichols, Cheryl Elman, Kathryn M. Feltey Sep 2006

The Economic Resource Receipt Of New Mothers, Laura Nichols, Cheryl Elman, Kathryn M. Feltey

Sociology

U.S. federal policies do not provide a universal social safety net of economic support for women during pregnancy or the immediate postpartum period but assume that employment and/or marriage will protect families from poverty. Yet even mothers with considerable human and marital capital may experience disruptions in employment, earnings, and family socioeconomic status postbirth. We use the National Survey of Families and Households to examine the economic resources that mothers with children ages 2 and younger receive postbirth, including employment, spouses, extended family and social network support, and public assistance. Results show that many new mothers receive resources postbirth. Marriage …

Update On The Status Of The Medicaid Prospective Payment System In The States, Roger Schwartz, Peter Shin, Megan Reilly Sep 2006

Update On The Status Of The Medicaid Prospective Payment System In The States, Roger Schwartz, Peter Shin, Megan Reilly

Health Policy and Management Faculty Publications

The Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 replaced the traditional cost-based reimbursement system for federally-qualified health centers (FQHCs) with a new prospective payment system. States were also allowed to implement an alternative payment methodology (APM) as long as it did not pay less than what FQHCs would have received under PPS and the affected FQHC agreed to the APM. Although changes in payment policies were to take effect in 2001, states were slow to implement them and most only did so after one or two years. With little or no oversight by the federal government, the National Association of …

Searching For Social Capital In U.S. Microenterprise Development Programs, Nancy C. Jurik, Gray Cavender, Julie Cozogill Sep 2006

Searching For Social Capital In U.S. Microenterprise Development Programs, Nancy C. Jurik, Gray Cavender, Julie Cozogill

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

This paper focuses on the claims and efforts of U.S. microenterprise development programs (MDPs) to build social capital among poor and low income entrepreneurs. MDPs offer business training and lending services to individuals operating very small businesses (with five or fewer employees and less than $20,000 in start-up capital). Advocates suggest that MDPs help promote economic development by building social capital defined as networks among small entrepreneurs and between entrepreneurs and their larger community. We begin our paper with a short review of the varied definitions and claims about the role of social capital in promoting civic and economic empowerment. …

A Study Of The Impact Of Apts On Service Quality Perceptions Of Elderly And Disabled Riders, Julian M. Benjamin, Gregory N. Price Sep 2006

A Study Of The Impact Of Apts On Service Quality Perceptions Of Elderly And Disabled Riders, Julian M. Benjamin, Gregory N. Price

Journal of Public Transportation

New transportation technology that directly impacts consumers should be evaluated by the people who are affected. Automated dispatching has become standard practice for paratransit services. This article summarizes a study analyzing consumer response to the Mobility Manager at a demonstration site in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The Mobility Manager was applied to the TransAID demand-responsive mini-bus service for people who are elderly or who have disabilities. Survey data from two questionnaires, before and after the implementation of the Mobility Manager for the same subjects, were used to examine travel behavior and perceived service quality. These travelers reported service improvements such as …

Faculty Publications

Objective: To assess the effects of energy dilution with non-fermentable and fermentable fibers on abdominal fat and gut peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 expressions, three rat studies were conducted to: determine the effects of energy dilution with a non-ferment-able fiber, compare similar fiber levels of fermentable and non-fermentable fibers, and compare similar metabolizable energy dilutions with fermentable and non-fermentable fibers. Research Methods and Procedures: In Study 1, rats were fed one of three diets with different metabolizable energy densities. In Study 2, rats were fed diets with similar fiber levels using high amylose-resistant cornstarch (RS) or methylcellulose. In …
