THE JAPANESE FAMILY: ECONOMIC PRESSURES AFFECTING CULTURAL VALUES WITHIN THE HOMEShioji, Hiroki January 1980 (has links)
This paper is a socio-economic study of the modern Japanese family. It is intended as an update on field studies conducted by sociologists and anthropologists on the Japanese family system of the earlier post-war period, but this study was conducted through the compilation and analysis of nationwide data, rather than through field work in a particular community. The paper begins with a discussion of the significance of the traditional family system, followed by a history of the process of urbanization in Japan, particularly in the Greater Tokyo area. Changes in the labor force during industrialization are also set out in order to explain the importance and identity of the "salaryman" in the modern urban labor force. This study then examines the financial situation of today's family. It is demonstrated that increased costs of living, particularly in urban housing, put financial strain on the budget of the young urban salaryman, causing him to depend more than in previous decades on the earnings of his wife and on financial help from his elderly parents, in a reversal of long-standing cultural patterns. The urban housing market is described in detail, with an overview of the prices and locations of various types of homes in the Greater Tokyo area. Many families now change homes throughout their life cycle, starting with an apartment for the young adult or newlyweds, then a condominium in a high-rise building or a small, non-custom-built single-family residence for the young family, and finally, perhaps, a large custom-built single-family residence. However, it is increasingly the case that such a home is priced beyond the reach of all but the most affluent, or those who can pool the most resources from several adult family members. Because of this, it is pointed out, there may be a trend back toward the extended family, but now in the city instead of the countryside. The question of personal savings is also explored, since the Japanese have been renowned for their high rates of savings. It is shown that today's young salaryman is not able to make ends meet if he buys a home, and with Japan's slowing economic growth, it is unlikely that he will ever accumulate the degree of savings that earlier generations have. Finally, changes in the physical structure of the home are outlined, with emphasis on ways in which youngsters raised in a modern urban home may have different cultural and aesthetic values than do those who were raised in a traditional home with their grandparents. In conclusion, it is speculated that changes in home and family life which are now occurring will be accelerated within the next generation, but the Japanese may find unique ways to combine traditional values with the realities of modern urban life.

The infant caring process among Cherokee mothers.Nichols, Lee Anne. January 1994 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to identify the process of providing care to infants among Oklahoma Cherokee mothers. American Indian infants are one of the most vulnerable populations in the United States, thus making them more vulnerable to the care they receive. American Indian mothers have cultural differences that influence the care they provide to their infants. Given the dearth of knowledge about this process and its significance to the health and well-being of American Indian children and perhaps other children, a qualitative grounded theory method was used to build scientific knowledge in this area. Northeastern Oklahoma Cherokee mothers who had an infant less than two years of age comprised the sample pool. Informants were selected according to the process of "theoretical sampling." Nineteen informants were interviewed over a three month time period. Data were also obtained through participant observation. These interviews and observations provided the data for analysis. The audio-taped interviews were transcribed, and then analyzed using the technique of "constant comparative analysis," consistent with grounded theory. A social process of Indian infant care among Cherokee mothers was identified. Eight concepts emerged from data analysis. The first and principal concept, Being a Cherokee Mother, described the functions of being an Indian mother in Cherokee society. The seven other concepts describe the patterns of cultural care the mothers provided to their infants. These concepts were: Accommodating Everyday Infant Care, Accommodating Health Perspectives, Building a Care-Providing Consortium, Living Spiritually, Merging the Infant into Indian Culture, Using Non-Coercive Discipline Techniques, and Vigilantly Watching for the Natural Unfolding of the Infant. Trustworthiness and credibility of the findings were established. Knowledge gained from this study may enable nursing professionals to become culturally competent in providing care that promotes the health practices of Cherokee mothers as they then provide care for their infants. Culturally sensitive nursing care provided to Cherokee families will be enhanced.

Analyzing the Biosocial Selection into Life-Course TransitionsUnknown Date (has links)
Over the past 30 years, scholars have increasingly focused on the individual-level factors that explain criminal behavior. This line of research has revealed that myriad factors influence the onset of a criminal career, the maintenance of a criminal career, and the desistance from a criminal career. The current study focused on the factors that account for desistance from a criminal career. One of the most prominent contemporary criminological theories posits that exposure to adult social bonds such as marriage, employment, and military involvement explains why a person desists from crime. Criminological research has supported the theory, but has failed to consider the influence of genetic factors on exposure to adult social bonds and, ultimately, desistance from crime. Three key findings emerged from the analysis. First, genetic factors explained a significant proportion of the variance in nearly all of the adult social bonds analyzed. Second, genetic factors explained a significant proportion of the variance in changes in delinquency, drug use, and antisocial behavior from adolescence to adulthood. Third, once genetic factors were controlled, the explanatory power of an adult social bond on desistance from delinquency was often weakened or eliminated. The theoretical implications of these findings are discussed. / A Dissertation submitted to the College of Criminology and Criminal Justice in
