Living with mamaw and pawpaw: Examining the impact of context when raising one’s grandchildren

Scott, Rachel K 13 August 2024 (has links) (PDF)
The parenting literature has long explored the influence that socioeconomic status has on parenting practices, but more recent theorists have suggested that contextual factors may influence or explain this relation in some capacity. The current study sought to explore the influence of these contextual factors within a nationwide sample of caregiving grandparents. The results indicate that grandparental financial well-being, depressive symptoms, scarcity of resources, and grandparenting practices share significant associations. Further, contextual factors (i.e., grandparental depressive symptoms and access to resources) mediate the relation between financial well-being and both the positive and negative grandparenting practices that are employed. These findings suggest that there are additional factors that may better explain differences in parenting practices employed by a group of caregivers who are typically within lower socioeconomic strata. This may allow for more targeted interventions to further support a large proportion of child caregivers.

A geoepidemiologia e o lugar : espaços de sentido para as violências contra mulheres rurais do Rio Grande do Sul / Geo-epidemiology and the environment : spatial data analysis in violence against rural women in RS state

Bueno, André Luis Machado January 2017 (has links)
Trata-se de um estudo ecológico, descritivo, do tipo série de casos, desenvolvido a partir de dados da segurança pública e da análise cartográfica da violência contra mulheres rurais em municípios de pequeno e médio porte da metade sul do Rio Grande do Sul, no período de 2010 a 2013, com o objetivo de traçar e analisar o perfil geoepidemiológico desses eventos. Aborda-se a temática das violências contra mulheres rurais a partir do seu construto sociocultural que a tornou, nas últimas décadas, um dos mais graves e complexos problemas sociais. Sustenta-se a ideia de que as desigualdades sociais limitam, ou mesmo impedem, o exercício pleno da cidadania ao criar, recriar ou transmutar, no rural, incondições de vida urbana para o enfrentamento das situações de violência. Reconhece-se que o setor saúde, em particular, tem dificuldades, especialmente em áreas rurais, para enfrentar o problema das violências contra mulheres por se tratar de eventos invisíveis (velados) e mascarados por sinais e sintomatologias diversas, quando pensados somente na perspectiva biológica. Nesse sentido, entende-se que a violência se transforma em problema de saúde por afetar a saúde individual e coletiva, demandando a formulação de políticas públicas específicas para prevenção e tratamento. Os resultados apontam para a conformação de um padrão de ocorrência dos eventos de violência nas cidades com os piores índices relacionados ao IDH, ÍNDICE DE GINI, PIB E INCIDÊNCIA DA POBREZA. As mulheres jovens, entre 12 e 17 anos são mais vitimadas por violências no recorte espacial analisado. As lesões corporais com ocorrência aos domingos entre as 12:01 e 18:00 responderam pela maioria dos registros de violências. Os casos de estupro chamam a atenção pela alta prevalência sendo, aproximadamente, 7 vezes mais prevalentes que os dados para o RS em 2012 e 17 vezes mais para os dados de 2015. As análises das cartografias sugerem que as variáveis relacionadas à renda, ao analfabetismo e às atividades típicas do rural atuam como agentes vulnerabilizantes para violências. O abandono social, a falta de políticas públicas eficazes e a crescente pobreza fazem com que o rural, na perspectiva e recorte espacial analisado, constitua-se como fator de vulnerabilidade específica para violências. Nesse sentido, o número de estabelecimentos de saúde municipais parece assumir caráter protetivo. Considera-se, dessa forma, que a implementação de políticas de saúde, de emprego, de educação e de renda pode auxiliar no combate às formas de discriminação baseadas nas assimetrias de gênero, fomentando a promoção da autonomia das mulheres vítimas de violência, por meio do aumento das capacidades para lidar com situações adversas, nesse caso, representado pelas diversas possibilidades constitutivas de violências contra mulheres em ambiente rural. / This is an ecological, descriptive study, a case series type, based on data from public security and cartographic analysis of violence against rural women in small and medium sized cities in the southern half of Rio Grande do Sul state from 2010 to 2013, with the aim of tracing and analyzing the Geo-epidemiological profile of these events. The issue of violence against rural women is approached from its socio-cultural construct which has made it one of the most serious and complex social problems in recent decades. The idea sustained here is that social inequalities limit or even stop the full exercise of citizenship by creating, re-creating or transmuting, in the rural, no urban life conditions to face situations of violence. It is recognized that the health sector in particular has difficulties, especially in rural areas, to address the problem of violence against women because they are invisible (veiled) events and masked by different signs and symptomatologies when considered only in biological perspective. In this sense, it is understood that violence becomes a health problem because it affects individual and collective health, demanding the formulation of specific public policies for prevention and treatment. The results point to the conformation of a pattern of occurrence of violence events in the cities with the worst indexes related to the HDI, GINI INDEX, GDP AND POVERTY INCIDENCE. Young women between the ages of 12 and 17 are the main victims. Body injuries occurring on Sundays between 12:01 p.m and 6:00 p.m., accounted for most of the violence records. Rape cases call attention to high prevalence, being approximately 7 times more prevalent than data in Rio Grande do sul state in 2012 and 17 times higher for 2015 data. Cartographic analysis suggest that variables related to income, illiteracy, and typical rural activities act as vulnerabilizing contexts of violence. Social abandonment, lack of effective public policies and increasing poverty make the rural, in the analyzed perspective, constitute a specific vulnerability factor for violence. In this sense, the number of municipal health facilities seems to take on a protective character. In this way, the implementation of health, employment, education and income policies can help fight off forms of discrimination based on gender asymmetries, promoting the empowerment of women victims of violence, through abilities to deal with adverse situations, in this case, represented by the many constitutive possibilities of violence against women in rural environment.
