Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to explore if, how, and why organizational religion helped African American couples sustain healthy marriages. The study explored a strength-based approach enhancing the strengths and characteristics already present within African American individuals, families, and their communities. This qualitative study was conducted using a phenomenological approach relating to participants lived and human experiences. The research objectives were to explore (1) perceptions that African American Christian couples have about organizational religion helping them to achieve and sustain healthy marriages and (2) perceptions that religious leaders in the church have about organizational religion helping African American Christian couples achieve and sustain healthy marriages. A total of 22 individuals participated in this study. Eighteen participants were married couples and four participants were church leader/administrators. All participants were African American males and females residing in the Dallas/Fort Worth area of the state of Texas in the United States. Of the nine couples interviewed, all participants reported being married, identifying as Christian, and having a religious affiliation (N=18). All participants also reported being active members of their local church attending church services at least once a week. Data were collected from small group interviews, individual interviews, and church leader/administrative interviews. The interviews were audiotaped, transcribed, and analyzed to determine emerging themes. Church artifacts were examined to gauge educational programs offered to its church members. Participation in events sponsored by the church’s Marriage Ministry were surveyed to determine participants involvement in these activities. Themes were determined from small group, individual, and church leader/administrative interviews collectively. Themes from small group interviews included (a) relationship, (b) rigid practices, (c) connection to a higher deity, (d) personal growth/togetherness, (e) church as a support for marriage and (f) balancing church and family dynamics. Themes from individual interviews included (a) model for healthy marriages, (b) teaching, (c) support for married couples, (d) encourages relational bonding, (e) proactive relationship, (f) challenges, and (g) intimacy. Themes from church leader/administrative interviews included (a) marital stability, (b) purposeful approach to the marriage, (c) motivation for ministry, (d) overextension, (e) positive interrelations, and (f) positive reinforcements. Three supporting themes in favor of marital support for couples were identified from church artifacts: (a) teaching, (b) enrichment, and (c) personal growth. Of the comprehensive themes determined, three overarching themes were determined indicative of organizational religion and marital perceptions of African Americans: (1) teaching, (2) modeling, and (3) supporting.

Book Synopsis Interpersonal Relationships in Education: From Theory to Practice by : David Zandvliet
Download or read book Interpersonal Relationships in Education: From Theory to Practice written by David Zandvliet and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together recent research on interpersonal relationships in education from a variety of perspectives including research from Europe, North America and Australia. The work clearly demonstrates that positive teacher-student relationships can contribute to student learning in classrooms of various types. Productive learning environments are characterized by supportive and warm interactions throughout the class: teacher-student and student-student. Similarly, at the school level, teacher learning thrives when there are positive and mentoring interrelationships among professional colleagues. Work on this book began with a series of formative presentations at the second International Conference on Interpersonal Relationships in Education (ICIRE 2012) held in Vancouver, Canada, an event that included among others, keynote addresses by David Berliner, Andrew Martin and Mieke Brekelmans. Further collaboration and peer review by the editorial team resulted in the collection of original research that this book comprises. The volume (while eclectic) demonstrates how constructive learning environment relationships can be developed and sustained in a variety of settings. Chapter contributions come from a range of fields including educational and social psychology, teacher and school effectiveness research, communication and language studies, and a variety of related fields. Together, they cover the important influence of the relationships of teachers with individual students, relationships among peers, and the relationships between teachers and their professional colleagues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the voice of Mee Ali, readers experience the rhythms and rituals of life in rural Namibia in interconnected stories. In Oshaantu, a place where women are the backbone of the home but are expected to submit to patriarchal dominance, Mee Ali is happily married. Her friend, Kauna, however, suffers at the hands of an abusive husband. When he is found dead at home, many of the villagers suspect her of poisoning him. Backtracking from that time, the novel, with its universal appeal, reveals the value of friendships, some of which are based on tradition while others grow out of strength of character, respect, and love.

This book was released on 2011-09-26 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively, practical text presents a fresh and comprehensive approach to doing qualitative research. The book offers a unique balance of theory and clear-cut choices for customizing every phase of a qualitative study. A scholarly mix of classic and contemporary studies from multiple disciplines provides compelling, field-based examples of the full range of qualitative approaches. Readers learn about adaptive ways of designing studies, collecting data, analyzing data, and reporting findings. Key aspects of the researcher's craft are addressed, such as fieldwork options, the five phases of data analysis (with and without using computer-based software), and how to incorporate the researcher's “declarative” and “reflective” selves into a final report. Ideal for graduate-level courses, the text includes:* Discussions of ethnography, grounded theory, phenomenology, feminist research, and other approaches.* Instructions for creating a study bank to get a new study started.* End-of-chapter exercises and a semester-long, field-based project.* Quick study boxes, research vignettes, sample studies, and a glossary.* Previews for sections within chapters, and chapter recaps.* Discussion of the place of qualitative research among other social science methods, including mixed methods research.
Book Synopsis An American Health Dilemma by : W. Michael Byrd
Download or read book An American Health Dilemma written by W. Michael Byrd and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At times mirroring and at times shockingly disparate to the rise of traditional white American medicine, the history of African-American health care is a story of traditional healers; root doctors; granny midwives; underappreciated and overworked African-American physicians; scrupulous and unscrupulous white doctors and scientists; governmental support and neglect; epidemics; and poverty. Virtually every part of this story revolves around race. More than 50 years after the publication of An American Dilemma, Gunnar Myrdal's 1944 classic about race relations in the USA, An American Health Dilemma presents a comprehensive and groundbreaking history and social analysis of race, race relations and the African-American medical and public health experience. Beginning with the origins of western medicine and science in Egypt, Greece and Rome the authors explore the relationship between race, medicine, and health care from the precursors of American science and medicine through the days of the slave trade with the harrowing middle passage and equally deadly breaking-in period through the Civil War and the gains of reconstruction and the reversals caused by Jim Crow laws. It offers an extensive examination of the history of intellectual and scientific racism that evolved to give sanction to the mistreatment, medical abuse, and neglect of African Americans and other non-white people. Also included are biographical portraits of black medical pioneers like James McCune Smith, the first African American to earn a degree from a European university, and anecdotal vignettes,like the tragic story of "the Hottentot Venus", which illustrate larger themes. An American Health Dilemma promises to become an irreplaceable and essential look at African-American and medical history and will provide an invaluable baseline for future exploration of race and racism in the American health system.
