Abstract

ABSTRACT Poverty simulations are interactive experiences that simulate the challenges of poverty. We conducted a pre-experimental study to examine the impact of the Community Action Poverty Simulation (CAPS) on participants’ attitudes toward poverty and multiculturalism. We surveyed participants’ attitudes immediately after the simulation and three months later. Participants (N = 119) reported statistically significantly improved attitudes toward the stigma and structural perspectives of poverty, as well as multicultural actions before and immediately after the CAPS. Participants (n = 52) also reported significantly improved attitudes toward the stigma of poverty three months after the CAPS compared to before and immediately after.

贫困模拟对多元文化态度和贫困态度的直接和扩展影响

贫困模拟是模拟贫困挑战的互动体验。我们进行了一项实验前研究，以检验社区行动贫困模拟（CAPS）对参与者对贫困和多元文化的态度的影响。我们在模拟后和三个月后立即调查了参与者的态度。参与者（N=119）报告称，在CAPS之前和之后，他们对贫困的污名化和结构性观点以及多文化行动的态度在统计上显著改善。参与者（n=52）还报告称，与CAPS之前和之后相比，CAPS之后三个月对贫困污名化的态度显著改善。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
