How Do Children Become Workers? Making Sense Of Conflicting Accounts Of Cultural Transmission In Anthropology And Psychology, David F. Lancy, Christopher A.J. Little Sep 2016

How Do Children Become Workers? Making Sense Of Conflicting Accounts Of Cultural Transmission In Anthropology And Psychology, David F. Lancy, Christopher A.J. Little

Sociology, Social Work and Anthropology Faculty Publications

This article uses children’s work as a lens to examine methodological concerns in the study of cultural transmission and children’s learning of useful domestic and subsistence skills. We begin by providing a review of the relevant literature concerning cultural transmission in the context of the ethnographic record, as well as more recent studies originating largely from psychology. We then offer an ethnographic case study concerning Asabano (PNG [Papua New Guinea]) childhood to make an important methodological contribution in the interdisciplinary study of cultural transmission. The case study centers on the paradox that Asabano parents, in interviews, claim that their children …

The Relationship Between Life Stressors And Drug And Sexual Behaviors Among A Population-Based Sample Of Young Black Men Who Have Sex With Men In Chicago, Dexter R. Voisin Sep 2016

The Relationship Between Life Stressors And Drug And Sexual Behaviors Among A Population-Based Sample Of Young Black Men Who Have Sex With Men In Chicago, Dexter R. Voisin

Faculty Scholarship

Younger Black men who have sex with men (YBMSM) have the highest rates of HIV incidence in the U.S. and are also exposed to high life stressors (e.g., unemployment, incarceration, and exposure to communality). This study assessed whether life stressors were related to drug use and sexual risk behaviors among a representative sample of YBMSM. The South Side of Chicago and selected adjacent suburbs represents the most populous contiguous Black community in the U.S. Over 10% of the estimated YBMSM population in this geographic region were sampled. Major findings indicated that higher life stress was significantly associated with greater odds …

Winthrop News 2016

  • Barbara Burgess-Wilkerson, an associate professor of management and director of student professional development in the College of Business Administration, said her research will help millennials identify their areas of strength and weakness as they prepare for their professional lives.
  • Millennials—the largest population in the workforce—have hyper-socialized online lives but feel increasingly alienated in their real lives.
  • Students said that among the factors that contributed to a successful integration from college to a career were having professors who cared for them and having mentors who talked with them about their futures.


Tetzlaff: Has The "Undue Hardship" Test Become Undue?, Alex J. Beehler Sep 2016

Tetzlaff: Has The "Undue Hardship" Test Become Undue?, Alex J. Beehler

Seventh Circuit Review

As the wage-market remains stagnant, and student indebtedness continues to rise, many graduates struggle to balance their student loan debt. Generally, when a debtor files for bankruptcy, her student loan debt is not dischargeable. However, under 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(8), debtors can discharge their student loans through bankruptcy if they can prove that maintaining those student loan debts would impose an "undue hardship" upon themselves. Unfortunately, Congress did not define what "undue hardship" meant when enacting the bankruptcy code. Courts have since been left to interpret the definition of "undue hardship," and many do so in different ways.

Across the …

An Exploration Of The Factors That Support Improved Pro-Social Outcomes For Young People In Detention: Social Care Practitioners' Perspectives., Emer Loughrey

Dissertations

Youth detention facilities like many other services funded by public money need to be able to demonstrate the difference it makes to the lives of the small cohort of young people who are detained. In a world which has become more security and safety conscious, evidencing the difference made to the lives of these ‘troubled youths’ is of particular interest to society today. This study aimed to explore the factors that support improved pro social outcomes for young people detained. As key agents of change having access to a formative time in young people’s lives while in detention, social care …

A Phenomenological Investigation Of Factors Leading To Success In Diverting Non-Urgent Emergency Department Use At A Rural Critical Access Hospital Using The Patient Centered Medical Home Model, Paul Gratton Sep 2016

A Phenomenological Investigation Of Factors Leading To Success In Diverting Non-Urgent Emergency Department Use At A Rural Critical Access Hospital Using The Patient Centered Medical Home Model, Paul Gratton

Doctor of Business Administration (DBA)

Emergency Department (ED) overuse for non-urgent medical concerns is a factor contributing to ED overcrowding, which is in turn related to negative health outcomes. Additionally, low-urgency care provided in the ED is more expensive and less comprehensive than in a primary care clinic. To address this issue, a number of programs have been developed in the United States to redirect non-urgent, high-frequency patients from the ED to their primary care clinic. These programs utilize the patient-centered medical home (PCMH) model to provide holistic, team-based care in a primary care setting in order to address the educational and behavioral needs of …
