ABSTRACT The global COVID-19 pandemic exposed structural inequality perpetuated by neoliberalism. essential workers, including helping professionals, have experienced a high-stress level. This pilot study examined the challenges faced by social welfare workers in Japan during the pandemic. Japanese social welfare departments in municipal governments, which are primary providers of public assistance and social services, are staffed by government officers (GOs, permanent government employees) and non-regular frontline workers (NRs, hired on annual contracts, predominantly female, covering direct casework). Informed by narrative inquiries, five individual interviews of GOs and NRs were conducted. The thematic analysis highlighted the increased employment instability, individualisation, and powerlessness among NRs. NRs expressed intensified stress from the safety risk, long working hours, and insufficient organisational support. Stratified by different types of contracts, resultant tasks, and genders, NRs experienced intensified isolation, leading to burnout. The implications of working precariously in the pandemic under the neoliberal social welfare systems are discussed.
COVID-19全球大流行暴露了新自由主义长期存在的结构性不平等。必要的工作人员,包括帮助专业人士,经历了高水平的压力。这项试点研究审查了大流行期间日本社会福利工作者面临的挑战。日本市政府的社会福利部门是公共援助和社会服务的主要提供者,其工作人员由政府官员(GOs,长期政府雇员)和非正式前线工作人员(NRs,按年度合同雇用,主要是女性,负责直接个案工作)组成。在叙述调查的基础上,对政府官员和非政府组织成员进行了五次单独访谈。专题分析强调了nr中就业不稳定、个性化和无力感的增加。注册护士表示,安全风险、工作时间长和组织支持不足加剧了他们的压力。按不同类型的合同、相应的任务和性别分层,注册护士经历了加剧的孤立,导致倦怠。讨论了在新自由主义社会福利制度下,在流行病中不稳定工作的影响。

ABSTRACT While there is substantial empirical evidence on the adverse effects of childhood trauma experiences, less is known about whether and how those experiences are related to cyberbullying perpetration in adolescents. This study examined the potential effects of childhood trauma experiences on cyberbullying perpetration with consideration of the role of emotion dysregulation. Participants (N = 1305) were recruited from elementary and middle schools (ages 9–16) in Yiyang County, Jiangxi Province, China during 2019. Multi-phase logistic regression analysis was used to explore childhood trauma and emotion dysregulation as predictors of cyberbullying experiences. The results showed that both childhood trauma experiences and emotion dysregulation were positively related to cyberbullying perpetration, with the relationship between sexual abuse and cyber-perpetration showing the highest coefficient among forms of childhood trauma. These findings may provide valuable information for use in cyberbullying prevention/intervention research and practice by clarifying avenues for alleviating childhood trauma experiences among minors.
虽然有大量的经验证据表明童年创伤经历的不良影响,但这些经历是否以及如何与青少年的网络欺凌行为相关却知之甚少。本研究探讨了儿童创伤经历对网络欺凌行为的潜在影响,并考虑了情绪失调的作用。参与者(N = 1305)于2019年在中国江西省益阳县的小学和中学(9-16岁)招募。采用多阶段logistic回归分析探讨儿童创伤和情绪失调对网络欺凌经历的影响。结果表明,儿童创伤经历和情绪失调与网络欺凌行为均呈正相关,其中性侵犯与网络欺凌行为的关系在儿童创伤形式中系数最高。这些发现阐明了减轻未成年人童年创伤经历的途径,可为网络欺凌预防/干预研究和实践提供有价值的信息。

ABSTRACT Previous studies have reported that food insecurity influences depression, with the reverse reported as well. The study explores the reciprocal causal relationship between food insecurity and depressive symptoms among impoverished Korean elderly. The data were derived from the 8th wave to the 10th wave of the Korea Welfare Panel Study. A total of 3,476 subjects aged 60 years or older were analysed. An auto-regressive cross-lagged model with three-year longitudinal data was conducted for the analysis. For all waves, the reciprocal causal relationships between food insecurity and depressive symptoms were examined. The findings have implications for gerontological policy and practice, especially for the Korean impoverished elderly.
先前的研究报道了食物不安全会影响抑郁症,反之亦然。本研究探讨韩国贫困老人的食物不安全与抑郁症状之间的相互因果关系。数据来源于韩国福利委员会的第8 ~ 10次调查。总共分析了3476名60岁或以上的受试者。采用3年纵向数据的自回归交叉滞后模型进行分析。对于所有波,粮食不安全和抑郁症状之间的相互因果关系进行了检查。这些发现对老年学的政策和实践具有启示意义,特别是对韩国贫困的老年人。

ABSTRACT This paper adopts the ‘Child Well-Being Study in Greater Taipei’ to examine factors associated with children’s screen use. This Study was conducted in 2017 and 2018 with 6,480 caregivers of primary school aged children. The hierarchical regression analysis shows that parent–child interaction and parents’ working time schedules are associated with children’s screen use. Based on the findings, this paper suggests that governments and social workers could provide courses and activities to promote parent–child interaction, encourage the implementation of flexible working time arrangements and offer childcare support for parents working atypical hours to reduce children’s excessive screen use.
摘要本研究采用“大台北地区儿童幸福感研究”来检视儿童使用萤幕的相关因素。这项研究是在2017年和2018年对6480名小学学龄儿童的看护人进行的。层次回归分析显示,亲子互动和父母的工作时间安排与儿童的屏幕使用有关。基于研究结果,本文建议政府和社会工作者可以提供促进亲子互动的课程和活动,鼓励实施灵活的工作时间安排,并为非典型工作时间的父母提供育儿支持,以减少儿童过度使用屏幕。

ABSTRACT This study aimed to identify the trend of judicial decisions on child abuse deaths in South Korea and provide practical implications to improve the current child welfare legislation (the Child Abuse Act or the CAA). The present study investigated factors related to sentencing decisions for child abuse deaths between 2000 and 2013 (45 cases before the CAA) and between 2014 and 2017 (20 cases after the CAA). This study used Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) to examine whether there were differences in judicial decisions before and after the CAA. The results showed that the sentencing standard has become stricter following the enactment of the CAA; however, sentences have still been primarily guided by judicial discretion. The current study suggests that it is important to amend the current CAA to clarify sentencing standards for child abuse. This amendment can ensure that punishment is primarily determined by specific provisions of the law.
摘要本研究旨在确定韩国儿童虐待死亡司法判决的趋势,并为完善现行儿童福利立法(《儿童虐待法》或《儿童福利法》)提供实际意义。本研究调查了2000年至2013年(CAA之前的45起)和2014年至2017年(CAA之后的20起)之间虐待儿童死亡案件判决的相关因素。本研究采用定性比较分析(QCA)来检验民审前后的司法判决是否存在差异。结果表明:《民航法》实施后,量刑标准趋严;然而,量刑仍然主要以司法裁量权为指导。目前的研究表明,重要的是修改现行的CAA,以明确虐待儿童的量刑标准。这项修正案可以确保惩罚主要由法律的具体规定决定。

ABSTRACT This article provides a theoretical review of the conceptualisation of power and powerlessness related to older people and proposes an integrated analytical framework for examining old age powerlessness. This framework conceptualises old age powerlessness regarding subjective sense and objective situations. The article argues that three powerlessness traps, the structural, cultural, and professional practice traps, interact to construct old age powerlessness. It also discusses the contribution of the framework to social work practice.
本文从理论上回顾了与老年人有关的权力和无力感的概念,并提出了一个综合的分析框架来研究老年无力感。这一框架将老年无力从主观感觉和客观情况上概念化。本文认为,结构陷阱、文化陷阱和职业实践陷阱这三个无能陷阱相互作用,共同构成了老年无能。讨论了该框架对社会工作实践的贡献。

ABSTRACT Organisational practices like mandatory practices, management practices, involvement in policy-advocacy-lobbying-networking practices and governance practices are considered healthy practices that contribute to organisational performance. This paper identifies some of the standard organisational practices of NGOs (N = 33) in Kerala State, India. From the study, it was evident that the NGOs were more into mandatory practices. The relation orientation of the Managerial leadership Behaviour showed a higher mean value of 2.8567 ± 0.49331SD than the task orientation. The study unravels the need for an updated policy in the voluntary sector and affirming the role of social work professionals in the organisation.
组织实践,如强制性实践,管理实践,参与政策倡导-游说-网络实践和治理实践,被认为是有助于组织绩效的健康实践。本文确定了印度喀拉拉邦非政府组织(N = 33)的一些标准组织实践。从研究中可以明显看出,非政府组织更倾向于强制性做法。管理领导行为的关系取向的均值为2.8567±0.49331SD,高于任务取向。该研究揭示了在志愿部门制定最新政策的必要性,并肯定了社会工作专业人员在组织中的作用。

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to validate the Meaning in Parenthood Questionnaire (MPQ) among Chinese mothers in Hong Kong. Based on the data collected from 854 Chinese mothers, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were conducted to examine the factor structure of the scale. The internal consistency reliability and construct validity of the scale were also examined. EFA yielded a twofold factor structure (i.e. presence of meaning and search for meaning in parenthood) with ten items, which was supported by the CFA and explained 62.1% of the total variance. The Cronbach’s alpha indicates a satisfactory reliability of MPQ-Presence and MPQ-Search subscales (i.e. .788 and .883, respectively). The construct validity of both MPQ-Presence and MPQ-Search subscales were established by their significant correlations with parental efficacy and life satisfaction. The MPQ as a reliable and valid scale can enable researchers and practitioners to measure meaning in parenthood.
摘要本研究的目的是在香港的中国母亲中验证父母意义问卷(MPQ)。采用探索性因子分析(EFA)和验证性因子分析(CFA)对量表的因子结构进行检验。并对量表的内部一致性、信度和结构效度进行了检验。EFA产生了一个包含10个项目的双因素结构(即意义的存在和父母意义的搜索),该结构得到了CFA的支持,解释了总方差的62.1%。Cronbach 's alpha表明MPQ-Presence和MPQ-Search子量表具有令人满意的信度(分别为。788和。883)。MPQ-Presence和MPQ-Search分量表的结构效度均与父母效能感和生活满意度显著相关。MPQ作为一种可靠有效的量表,可以帮助研究者和实践者衡量亲子关系的意义。

ABSTRACT Kanter’s model of structural empowerment developed in Western individualist culture has similar functionality in Hong Kong where collectivism is valued. Structural empowerment exerted a direct effect on job satisfaction and an indirect effect on psychological well-being via global psychological empowerment and job satisfaction. Opportunities for training and self-growth were most accessible to social workers, but least related to job satisfaction and had no bearing on psychological well-being. To empower social workers to provide a quality service, access to information, resources, and support in the workplace is more essential than access to training and self-development.
坎特在西方个人主义文化中发展起来的结构性赋权模式,在重视集体主义的香港也具有类似的功能。结构授权通过整体心理授权和工作满意度对工作满意度产生直接影响,对心理健康产生间接影响。社会工作者最容易获得培训和自我成长的机会,但与工作满意度的关系最小,与心理健康没有关系。为了使社会工作者能够提供高质量的服务,在工作场所获得信息、资源和支持比获得培训和自我发展更重要。

To empower social workers to provide a quality service, access to information, resources, and support in the workplace is more essential than access to training and self-development.","PeriodicalId":44820,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Social Work and Development","volume":"69 1","pages":"131 - 146"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83886111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT This study examines the factors associated with the substantiation of child maltreatment in Korean child protective services (CPS), including organisational, external, and individual case factors based on social ecology. Multilevel logistic regression was utilised with data from 14,014 alleged child maltreatment cases and 36 CPS agencies and their jurisdictions. The results revealed that maltreatment substantiation is associated with the characteristics of alleged child maltreatment cases and the backgrounds of organisations and communities. Specifically, using time-limits to determine decision-making at CPS agencies was associated with a higher likelihood of substantiation, whereas more workload of investigation workers and residents’ mobility in communities were associated with a lower likelihood of substantiation. Additionally, a child’s mental health concerns, the caregiver’s risk factors, caregiver being parent, the family structure, and police officer accompanied for investigation were associated with substantiation. Based on the findings, improving substantiation decisions in the Korean CPS were discussed.
本研究探讨了韩国儿童保护服务(CPS)中与儿童虐待相关的因素,包括基于社会生态学的组织、外部和个案因素。对来自14,014起涉嫌虐待儿童案件和36家CPS机构及其管辖范围的数据进行了多水平逻辑回归。结果显示,虐待证据与指称儿童虐待案件的特征以及组织和社区的背景有关。具体而言,使用时间限制来确定CPS机构的决策与证实的可能性较高相关,而调查工作人员的工作量和社区居民的流动性与证实的可能性较低相关。此外,儿童的心理健康问题、照顾者的风险因素、照顾者是否为人父母、家庭结构以及陪同调查的警官都与证据确凿有关。在此基础上,讨论了改进韩国CPS的实证决策。
