Family home child care providers make up a sizeable portion of the available child care in Iowa; however, their sustainability is threatened by providers making a low income and lacking access to benefits. The current study describes the enrollment of family home child care, cost drivers of providing care, and participation in business practices such as paying oneself a salary, providing for one’s health insurance, accepting state child care subsidy, and participating in the state quality rating system (QRS), as well as relationships among these business practices. Chi-square analyses indicate that providers who accept child care assistance (CCA) are more likely to contribute to their health insurance and provide themselves with paid time off; however, their participation rates in QRS are similar to those who do not accept CCA. Directions for future research and potential points of intervention to support family home childcare (FHCC) providers as small business owners are discussed.","PeriodicalId":39829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Social Science","volume":"58 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141804977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a sample of 630 racially diverse fathers, we found enhanced economic vulnerability of urban fathers and Black/other minority fathers, and greater individual and work-related challenges for White fathers at program start. Results from growth modeling indicated fathers reported sustained growth over 1 year in nearly all measures assessed including relationship skills and functioning, hope for ensuring a positive future, father involvement and parent-child relationship quality, child academic adjustment, and commitments and ability to meet financial obligations. Evidence of enhanced benefit of programs in multiple areas over time for rural and White participants, compared with Black/other minority and urban fathers is presented. Results also indicate receiving case management first enhances fathers’ attendance and retention in program classes.","PeriodicalId":39829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Social Science","volume":"32 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140979345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study focused on myth reduction, as well as self-defense self-efficacy. Demographics allowed for within-group comparisons along gender and race. Among men who attended Bro Code, Black men had significantly lower sexual assault myth adherence on many rape myths than the control group, not true of white men. Those women who attended Girls Night Out (GNO) had significantly lower sexual assault myth adherence than the control group. While greater reductions in myth adherence were seen in white women than among Black women, Black women had significantly lower overall sexual assault myth adherence (in both control and sample). As a side note, we found that women who attended GNO had lower general intimate partner violence myth acceptance in addition to lower sexual assault myth acceptance, with some variation on individual myths. Finally, those women who attended self-defense training were significantly more likely to endorse self-defense self-efficacy. Results were then explored through the lens of cultural, gender, intersectional, and community-based contexts. Future research needs and implications are discussed.","PeriodicalId":39829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Social Science","volume":"49 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139536648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to explore factors that influence an older adult’s performance in food-related activities. Older adults eligible to receive a monthly senior food box from community food distribution sites were recruited to complete a survey. The survey included home information, Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information Systems (PROMIS®) v1.1 Global Health measure, individualized supplemental food utilization profile (FP), and a kitchen inventory. Descriptive and statistical analyses were performed. From December 2021 until March 2023, n = 200 participants were recruited and n = 36 took the survey for an 18% completion rate with a mean age of 71 years old; 61% were female and 36% were male. Of the participants who took the survey, 64% ( n = 23) acknowledged having at least one chronic disease and 89% ( n = 32) indicated they prepared meals for themselves. The OPMF revealed grocery shopping, cooking, and eating as “extremely important” and directly related to their performance and satisfaction. The FP rate revealed that 61% ( n = 22) of participants always use 100% of their food box by the end of each month. While the participants in this study report having at least one chronic disease, most are functional and independent when it comes to food-related activities, and most report that they have the tools to manage and use their food resources.","PeriodicalId":39829,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Social Science","volume":"5 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139150637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
