Purpose: Having a strong family support is one of the most important factors contributing to successful rehabilitation and especially among adolescent ex-offenders and thereafter gain a sustainable livelihood. This study sought to examine the role of family support in the social re-integration of adolescent offenders in Kinshasa city. The study was grounded on strain theory as proposed by Merton (1957) as well as pm system theory. Methodology: Mixed methods research approach focusing on explanatory sequential design was adopted. Data was collected from a sample of 345 individuals including 330 adolescents and 15 key informants using questionnaires, FGDs, and key informant interviews. The study participants were selected from three localities, Kisenso, Limete, and Matete and Kisenso, using stratified sampling technique and purposive sampling. Findings: Findings on adolescent offenders’ perception on family support indicates that, 10% (n=33) of adolescent offenders expressed low perceptions of family support; 82.7% (n=273) had moderate perception of family support while 7.3% (n=24) have high perceptions of the support received from family members. The study also found a positive albeit rather weak correlation between family support and social reintegration of adolescent offenders, with a Pearson Correlation Coefficient (r) 0.377. From the findings, the ANOVA tests revealed that, family support (F=1.962, p=0.018) has statistically significant influence on social reintegration of adolescent offenders. The study concludes that, family support was found to be a predictor of social reintegration as family financial, material, and emotional support is needed to influence readjustment and social functioning of affected individuals. Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: From the study, it was recommended that, different stakeholders including the government, NGOs, the religious organizations and individual philanthropists should support the family in her role to provide material and non-material support towards their adolescent ex-offenders for effective social re-integration.
目的:有一个强大的家庭支持是一个最重要的因素,有助于成功的改造,特别是青少年前罪犯,然后获得可持续的生计。本研究旨在探讨家庭支持在金沙萨市青少年罪犯重新融入社会中的作用。该研究以Merton(1957)提出的应变理论和pm系统理论为基础。研究方法:采用以解释性序列设计为主的混合方法研究方法。数据收集自345个人样本,包括330名青少年和15名关键举报人,使用问卷调查、fgd和关键举报人访谈。采用分层抽样和有目的抽样的方法,从Kisenso、Limete、Matete和Kisenso三个地区选取研究对象。调查结果:青少年罪犯对家庭支持的认知结果显示,10% (n=33)的青少年罪犯对家庭支持的认知较低;82.7% (n=273)对家庭支持有中等认知,7.3% (n=24)对家庭支持有高度认知。该研究还发现,青少年罪犯的家庭支持与他们的社会重新融入之间存在着正相关关系,尽管相关性很弱,Pearson相关系数(r)为0.377。方差分析结果显示,家庭支持对青少年罪犯重返社会有显著影响(F=1.962, p=0.018)。研究发现,家庭支持是社会重新融入的一个预测因素,因为家庭在经济、物质和情感上的支持需要影响受影响个体的重新适应和社会功能。在理论、实践和政策方面的独特贡献:研究建议政府、非政府组织、宗教组织和个人慈善家等不同利益相关者应支持家庭的角色,为青少年前罪犯提供物质和非物质支持,使其有效地重新融入社会。

Purpose: Military brutalities continue to occur in Africa notwithstanding a momentous drop in military coups. Military-civilian relations are still problematic and complex since in some cases civilians die in military custody. This article is a sociological study and analysis of how Ghana’s Convention Peoples Party’s Northern Regional Chairman, Issah Mobila was brutally murdered in military custody in Tamale, the Northern Regional capital and the effect the murder had on the family and the people of the Region. Methodology: The study was purely qualitative hence qualitative procedures and processes were used. Interview guides as well as observation were used for the primary data while the secondary data were sourced via internet and written documents like the newspapers. The data were thematically analysed and, in some cases, individual responses were quoted verbatim. Findings: The study asserted that Mobila was murdered by the military hence two of the military officers were convicted. The study also asserted that Mobila was wrongly accused by the security services and murdered in military custody. The study found that the family of the deceased continued to suffer psychological discomfort hence the elder’s son contemplated committing suicide. The Regional Security Council gave conflicting statements which angered the youth and the opinion leaders which created insecurity in the municipality resulting in hunger in the capital of Tamale as food sellers refused to sell for the fear that they might be killed. Also, the wives of the military men in the barracks also seized going to the market for fear of reprisal. Tamale therefore came to a standstill in the midst of heavy military patrols in the municipality. Media reportage was prominent as the murder issue was discussed thoroughly. Unique Contribution to Theory, Policy and Practice: This murder case was unprecedented in the history of the military in Tamale hence it provoked calls on government to ensure cordial and effective relationship between the civilian population and the military to obviate a recurrence. Constant lectures and dialogue on military-civilian relationship are being encouraged in order to strengthen coexistence between the military and the civilians.
目的:军事暴行在非洲继续发生,尽管军事政变大大减少。军民关系仍然有问题和复杂,因为在某些情况下,平民在军事拘留期间死亡。这篇文章是对加纳国民大会人民党北部地区主席Issah Mobila如何在北部地区首府Tamale被军事拘留时被残忍杀害的社会学研究和分析,以及谋杀对该地区家庭和人民的影响。方法学:本研究为纯定性研究,采用定性研究程序和方法。主要数据采用采访指南和观察法,次要数据通过互联网和报纸等书面文件获取。对这些数据进行了专题分析,在某些情况下,逐字引用了个别答复。调查结果:该研究断言,Mobila是被军方谋杀的,因此两名军官被定罪。该研究还断言,Mobila被安全部门错误地指控,并在军事拘留期间被谋杀。研究发现,死者的家人继续遭受心理上的不适,因此老人的儿子考虑自杀。地区安全委员会发表了相互矛盾的声明,这激怒了年轻人和意见领袖,造成了市政当局的不安全,导致首都塔梅尔出现饥饿,因为食品销售商因担心被杀而拒绝出售。此外,军营里军人的妻子也因为害怕遭到报复而阻止他们去市场。因此,在市区的大量军事巡逻中,塔梅尔陷入停顿。媒体的报道是突出的,因为谋杀问题得到了深入的讨论。对理论、政策和实践的独特贡献:这一谋杀案件在Tamale的军事历史上是前所未有的,因此它激起了要求政府确保平民和军队之间的友好和有效关系,以避免再次发生。正在鼓励就军民关系不断进行讲座和对话,以加强军民共存。

Relationship between partnership and the sustainability of institutionalized child care in Lira City, northern Uganda 乌干达北部里拉市制度化儿童保育的伙伴关系与可持续性之间的关系
Pub Date : 2022-11-19 DOI: 10.47941/jas.1122

Purpose: This study assessed the relationship between partnership and the sustainability of institutionalized child care in Lira City, northern Uganda. Specifically, three objectives guided the study, namely; to examine the relationship between networks and sustainability of institutionalized child care, to examine the relationship between coordination and sustainability of institutionalized child care, and to determine the relationship between collaboration and sustainability of institutionalized child care. As a consequence, the paper reverts to three selected variables of partnership, that is, networks, coordination and collaboration vis-à-vis sustainability of institutionalized child care. Methodology: A mixed approach was used and data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and an interview guide. The study was based on Forebelian principles and attachment theory. Statistical data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (linear regressions). Thematic analysis was used to analyse qualitative data. Results: The study established a positive and significant relationship between networking and sustainability of institutionalized children's care (R2 =.362, Coef. =.425) as it increases the sustainability of institutionalized child care by 36.2%. Further, the findings revealed that coordination increased sustainability of institutionalized children's care by 47.7% since it produced an adjusted R2 of.477. The regression coefficient of.477 suggested a strong and positive correlation. Finally, it was established that a significant correlation exists between collaboration and sustainability. Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: The study recommended that the government should partner with institutionalized children's homes since partnership is one of the fundamental mechanisms in promoting sustainability. Also, there is need for capacity building through trainings on partnerships organized by either the government or NGOs, and further studies may be conducted to examine other factors that affect the sustainability of institutionalized children’s care apart from partnerships. Consequently, the results contribute to the national policy on child care centers seeing that they are becoming more instrumental in caring for the vulnerable children.
目的:本研究评估了乌干达北部里拉市制度化儿童保育的伙伴关系和可持续性之间的关系。具体而言,有三个目标指导研究,即;研究网络与机构化儿童保育的可持续性之间的关系,研究机构化儿童保育的协调性与可持续性之间的关系,确定机构化儿童保育的协作性与可持续性之间的关系。因此,本文回归到伙伴关系的三个选定变量,即网络,协调和协作-à-vis制度化儿童保育的可持续性。方法:采用混合方法,数据收集使用五点李克特量表和访谈指南的结构化问卷。这项研究是基于前瞻原则和依恋理论。统计数据采用描述性统计和推理统计(线性回归)进行分析。采用专题分析对定性数据进行分析。结果:网络与机构化儿童保育的可持续性之间存在显著正相关(R2 =。362年,系数。= 0.425),因为它使机构儿童保育的可持续性提高了36.2%。此外,研究结果显示,协调使制度化儿童护理的可持续性提高了47.7%,因为它产生了调整后的R2为0.477。的回归系数。477表明两者呈正相关。最后,我们发现合作与可持续性之间存在显著的相关关系。在理论、政策和实践方面的独特贡献:研究建议政府与机构化儿童之家合作,因为合作是促进可持续发展的基本机制之一。此外,还需要通过政府或非政府组织组织的伙伴关系培训进行能力建设,并可进行进一步研究,以审查除伙伴关系外影响制度化儿童照料可持续性的其他因素。因此,研究结果有助于儿童保育中心的国家政策,因为它们在照顾弱势儿童方面变得越来越重要。

A perspective on the relationship between partnership and sustainability of child-care organisations in Uganda 关于乌干达儿童保育组织的伙伴关系和可持续性之间关系的观点
Pub Date : 2022-11-19 DOI: 10.47941/jas.1121
David Ekwang Otto, D. Mwesigwa
Purpose: This study aimed to discuss the relationship between partnership and sustainability of child care organisations in Uganda. This was largely so because it has become clearer that modern day child-care organisations lack ability to continue operating beyond the donor or sponsorship yet sustainability is a key ingredient in child-care organisational initiation. This limitation has placed cumulative burden on child-care organisations wishing to enhance their sustainability by ensuring that they put greater emphasis on partnerships in terms of coordination, networks and collaboration both from within and without. And bearing in mind the countless trials and the signal of dearth of partnership through networks, coordination and collaboration in not-for-profit child-care organisations in Uganda, the motivation of this study is on how Ugandan child-care organisations can achieve sustainability in the competitive 21st century.   Methodology: The study adopted a desk review method, some earlier theories on child-care as well as various literatures on each of the three constructs of networks, coordination and collaboration are debated as a base for drawing recommendations to different stakeholders. Results: It can be noted that for sustainability to be achieved in a child-care organisation, emphasis needs to be put to the three issues of networks, coordination, and collaboration. Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: The outcomes of this analysis are helpful to the different theories and policies on child care organisations in northern Uganda and the country in general.
目的:本研究旨在讨论乌干达儿童保育组织的伙伴关系和可持续性之间的关系。这在很大程度上是因为,越来越明显的是,现代托儿机构缺乏在捐赠者或赞助之外继续运营的能力,但可持续性是托儿机构启动的一个关键因素。这一限制给希望通过确保更加重视内部和外部的协调、网络和合作方面的伙伴关系来提高其可持续性的托儿组织带来了累积的负担。考虑到乌干达非营利性儿童保育组织中无数的试验和缺乏通过网络、协调和合作建立伙伴关系的信号,本研究的动机是乌干达儿童保育组织如何在竞争激烈的21世纪实现可持续发展。研究方法:本研究采用案头回顾法,讨论了一些早期的托儿理论,以及关于网络、协调和协作三种结构的各种文献,作为向不同利益相关者提出建议的基础。结果:可以注意到,为了在托儿机构中实现可持续性,需要强调网络,协调和协作三个问题。对理论、政策和实践的独特贡献:这一分析的结果对乌干达北部和整个国家的儿童保育组织的不同理论和政策有帮助。

Purpose: This study sought to examine the influence of case management on the resilience of adolescents living with HIV in Kibra Sub-County, Nairobi, Kenya. Mainly, the study aimed to assess the effect of the healthy domain, safe domain, schooled domain, and stable domain interventions on the resilience of adolescents living with HIV in Kibra Sub-County. Methodology: The study was anchored on Resilience Theory, Empowerment Theory, and Case Management Model and adopted a cross-sectional descriptive design. The study used a sample size of 165 adolescents living with HIV aged between 10-19 years and 16 key informants. A stratified sampling technique was used to select adolescents living with HIV, while key informants were selected through a purposive sampling technique. The study used questionnaires and interview guides to collect data. Findings: It is observed that case management interventions explained 80.0% of the resilience of adolescents living with HIV. More importantly, the study found that healthy domain, safe domain, schooled domain, and stable domain interventions had a positive and significant effect on the resilience of adolescents living with HIV in Kibra Sub-County. The case management interventions contributed significantly to the resilience of adolescents living with HIV in informal settlements. The most significant predictor of resilience was stable domain interventions, followed by schooled domain interventions, safe domain interventions, and healthy domain interventions. Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommends that organizations or facilities dealing with adolescents living with HIV need to strengthen health education training, viral load monitoring, assisted disclosure, and follow-ups and bolster basic counselling, enhanced adherence counseling, and life-skill training. They should also support needy adolescents with sanitary pads and school fees/levies, monitor school attendance, provide relief food support to families experiencing emergencies, and provide career guidance and business and vocational/technical training. The findings contribute significantly to project management since all development projects aim to build the resilience of beneficiaries and enable them to become self-reliant. In order to support the findings that successful case management contributes to higher resilience and improved wellbeing, the researcher invites more research to identify other variables under case management intervention.
目的:本研究旨在探讨病例管理对肯尼亚内罗毕基布拉县感染艾滋病毒的青少年恢复力的影响。本研究主要旨在评估健康领域、安全领域、受教育领域和稳定领域干预对基布拉县青少年艾滋病毒感染者心理弹性的影响。研究方法:本研究以弹性理论、授权理论和个案管理模型为基础,采用横断面描述性设计。该研究使用了165名年龄在10-19岁之间感染艾滋病毒的青少年和16名关键信息提供者的样本。采用分层抽样的方法对感染艾滋病毒的青少年进行抽样调查,采用有目的抽样的方法对关键信息提供人进行抽样调查。该研究使用问卷调查和访谈指南来收集数据。研究发现:病例管理干预解释了80.0%感染艾滋病毒的青少年的恢复力。更重要的是,研究发现健康领域、安全领域、受教育领域和稳定领域的干预措施对基布拉县感染艾滋病毒的青少年的恢复力有显著的正向影响。病例管理干预措施极大地促进了非正规住区中感染艾滋病毒的青少年的复原力。最显著的预测因子是稳定域干预,其次是学校域干预、安全域干预和健康域干预。对理论、实践和政策的独特贡献:该研究建议,处理感染艾滋病毒的青少年的组织或机构需要加强健康教育培训、病毒载量监测、协助披露和随访,并加强基本咨询、加强依从性咨询和生活技能培训。它们还应向有需要的青少年提供卫生巾和学费/征费,监测上学情况,向经历紧急情况的家庭提供救济食品支助,并提供职业指导以及商业和职业/技术培训。这些研究结果对项目管理有重大贡献,因为所有发展项目的目标都是建立受益者的复原力,使他们能够自力更生。为了支持成功的案例管理有助于提高弹性和改善幸福感的研究结果,研究人员邀请更多的研究来确定案例管理干预下的其他变量。

They should also support needy adolescents with sanitary pads and school fees/levies, monitor school attendance, provide relief food support to families experiencing emergencies, and provide career guidance and business and vocational/technical training. The findings contribute significantly to project management since all development projects aim to build the resilience of beneficiaries and enable them to become self-reliant. In order to support the findings that successful case management contributes to higher resilience and improved wellbeing, the researcher invites more research to identify other variables under case management intervention.","PeriodicalId":319695,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Sociology","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122284512","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}

Purpose: The success of the insurance industry vastly depend on the ethical behavior patterns of insurance companies, insurance agents, or insurance brokers as they are the persons who have direct relationships with customers. Ethical behavior patterns in turn build up the customer’s satisfaction and trust towards the insurance industry. Therefore, the insurance industry stakeholders must have the knowledge of the key factors that influences existence the unethical behavior in insurance industry if they want to ensure the ethical behavior prevail in the industry. Different factors contribute to these ethical behavior patterns and organizational factors are more important among them. The main purpose of this study was to identify the factors contributing to existence of unethical practices in the insurance industry. Methodology: In this study, a systematic search was carried using search engines such as Google Scholar, Google Books, Semantic Scholar, Science.gov and ResearchGate, using the keywords; “ethical practices” and “insurance industry”. In total, 52 papers, published until between November 2012 and January 2022, were extracted from these databases. After removing duplicates, the titles and abstracts of these articles were reviewed based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria included all types of studies that examine organizational ethical practices. Exclusion criteria included non-English language articles, articles whose full text could not be accessed, and clinical organization articles due to their different nature. After screening the titles and abstracts of the articles, 46 articles were carefully selected for full text review based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and finally, 34 articles were included in the study. Findings: According to the findings, researchers have shown that it is impossible to salvage the public image of insurance industry without ethical behavior patterns of insurance companies, among insurance agents, insurance brokers, insurance customers, and other stakeholders. This study further shows that more effort is required to protect the individual salesperson’s reputation as well as that of the entire insurance industry. Ethical behavior has been found to be a key ingredient to the success of every insurance provider and to the insurance industry. Recommendations: This study recommends that insurance providers should place ethical issues first in their core values in order to uphold and maintain integrity and accountability in their services. It is also recommended that the management in the insurance industry should uphold transformational leadership that embraces honesty and integrity in business operations. Moreover, the management of the insurance companies should ensure that all their sales agents have adequate knowledge of their various insurance policies to avoid instances of guesswork, just in efforts to lure customer to subscribe to the policies, which is merely aimed at liftin
目的:保险业的成功很大程度上取决于保险公司、保险代理人或保险经纪人的道德行为模式,因为他们是与客户有直接关系的人。道德行为模式反过来建立客户对保险业的满意度和信任。因此,保险业利益相关者要想确保保险业道德行为盛行,就必须了解影响保险业不道德行为存在的关键因素。这些伦理行为模式的形成有多种因素,其中组织因素的作用更为重要。本研究的主要目的是确定导致保险行业存在不道德行为的因素。方法:本研究采用谷歌Scholar、谷歌Books、Semantic Scholar、Science.gov、ResearchGate等搜索引擎,采用关键词进行系统检索;“道德操守”及“保险业”。从这些数据库中总共提取了52篇发表于2012年11月至2022年1月之间的论文。删除重复后,根据纳入和排除标准对这些文章的标题和摘要进行审查。纳入标准包括检查组织道德实践的所有类型的研究。排除标准包括非英语文章、无法获得全文的文章和临床组织文章,因为它们的性质不同。在对文章的标题和摘要进行筛选后,根据纳入和排除标准,筛选出46篇文章进行全文审阅,最终纳入34篇文章。研究结果表明,如果没有保险公司、保险代理人、保险经纪人、保险客户和其他利益相关者的道德行为模式,就不可能挽救保险业的公众形象。这项研究进一步表明,需要更多的努力来保护个人销售人员的声誉以及整个保险业的声誉。道德行为已被发现是每个保险公司和保险业成功的关键因素。建议:本研究建议保险公司应将道德问题置于其核心价值的首位,以维护和保持其服务的诚信和问责制。此外,我们亦建议保险业的管理层应秉持变革式的领导,在业务运作中提倡诚实和诚信。此外,保险公司的管理层应该确保所有的销售代理人对他们的各种保险政策有足够的了解,以避免猜测的情况,只是为了吸引客户购买保险单,而这仅仅是为了提高各自销售代理人的收入。此外,建议保险公司应增加审计频率,以发现欺诈索赔。

Purpose: Diabetes is one of the non-communicable diseases (NCDs) of great global public health and development concern. This NCD has adverse effects on the social well-being of patients, their households, and the whole society. The overall objective of this study was to determine the relationship between social roles of family members and effectiveness of diabetes management of patients seeking care at St. Mary’s Mission Hospital, Nairobi. Methodology: This study drew on descriptive study design, involving quantitative and qualitative methods, particularly closed and open questions. The sample size was 269 respondents included in the study through purposive and convenient sampling. These sampling techniques were preferred in this research since data was gathered from the respondents during their visit to the hospital. The researcher collected data through interviewer-administered questionnaires containing both open and closed questions. Qualitative data was grouped, coded, and categorized, picking on cross-cutting issues, then compiled, analysed, and interpreted accordingly. Quantitative data was coded then entered into Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22 for windows. SPSS was used to run frequency distributions and cross-tabulations for analysis and interpretation, and Microsoft Excel was used for graphical presentation. Findings: The study established that diabetes management is costly and not affordable to many patients. Hence, it affects the social well-being of the patients and their families. Unique Contribution to Theory and Practice: The study recommends free or affordable and available medication for diabetes patients, and continuous awareness programs for patients, family members and the community across all Counties to address the effects of diabetes management on the patients, families, and the Nation. This would contribute to the social well-being of the patients and their families and the Nation's economic development.
目的:糖尿病是引起全球公共卫生和发展关注的非传染性疾病之一。这种非传染性疾病对患者、其家庭和整个社会的社会福祉产生不利影响。本研究的总体目标是确定家庭成员的社会角色与在内罗毕圣玛丽教会医院寻求治疗的糖尿病患者管理有效性之间的关系。研究方法:本研究采用描述性研究设计,涉及定量和定性方法,特别是封闭式和开放式问题。通过有目的和方便的抽样,本研究的样本量为269人。这些抽样技术在本研究中是首选的,因为数据是在受访者访问医院期间收集的。研究人员通过受访者管理的问卷收集数据,问卷包括开放式和封闭式问题。定性数据被分组、编码和分类,挑选交叉问题,然后相应地编译、分析和解释。定量数据被编码,然后输入到统计软件包社会科学(SPSS)版本22为windows。使用SPSS软件运行频率分布和交叉表进行分析和解释,使用Microsoft Excel进行图形化呈现。研究结果:该研究表明,糖尿病治疗费用昂贵,许多患者负担不起。因此,它影响到患者及其家属的社会福祉。对理论和实践的独特贡献:该研究建议为糖尿病患者提供免费或负担得起的可用药物,并为所有县的患者、家庭成员和社区提供持续的意识项目,以解决糖尿病管理对患者、家庭和国家的影响。这将有助于患者及其家属的社会福利和国家的经济发展。
