ABSTRACT The goal of the current study was to examine gender differences in the experiences of sexual harassment and assaults, and attitudes toward sexual harassment and toward the #MeToo campaign. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 364 women and 253 men. Although the study revealed high percentages of women and men who experienced sexual harassment and assault victimization, significant gender differences were found in almost all outcomes examined: 29% of women reported having experienced sexual assaults compared to 15% of men. Significant gender differences were also found in attitudes toward sexual harassment and toward the #MeToo campaign, women being more positive toward the campaign than men. A stepwise regression was found to be significant, with demographic variables, attitudes toward sexual harassment, and being victims of sexual harassment predicting approximately 46% of the variance in attitudes toward the #MeToo campaign. The higher prevalence of women who reported having experienced sexual harassment and assaults demonstrates that prevention interventions against sexual harassment in society must continue, and awareness of the issue must be intensified. Additionally, interventions and campaigns should focus on men as well, who should also be recognized as victims.

ABSTRACT The purpose of the study is to explore the association between the socio-environmental factors and suicidality (suicidal ideation or suicide attempts). Cross-sectional data were obtained from 2,369 undergraduates (1,168 male and 1,201 female students) from four colleges in China. Approximately 12.7% of the participants reported having engaged in suicidal ideation and 6.4% reported having attempted suicide. Students belonging to a sexual-minority group were more likely to have engaged in suicidal ideation (23.2% vs. 11.7%; p < .001), and suicide attempts (16.5% vs. 5.5%; p < .001) than heterosexual participants. Multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that being a sexual minority (+), parenting styles including warmth (-), indulgence (+) and neglect (+), and support from family (-) were significantly associated with suicidality among male students. On the other hand, being a sexual minority group (+), parenting styles including warmth (-), humiliation (+) and neglect (+), support from teachers (-) and from boyfriend/girlfriend (-), and school conditions including learning atmosphere (-) and extracurricular activities (-) were significantly associated with suicidality among female participants.
摘要本研究旨在探讨社会环境因素与自杀行为(自杀意念或自杀企图)之间的关系。横断面数据来自中国四所高校的2369名本科生(1168名男生和1201名女生)。大约12.7%的参与者报告有过自杀意念，6.4%的参与者报告有过自杀未遂。属于性少数群体的学生更有可能产生自杀意念(23.2% vs 11.7%;P < 0.001)，自杀企图(16.5% vs. 5.5%;P < 0.001)。多元logistic回归分析显示，性少数(+)、父母教养方式(温暖(-)、放纵(+)、忽视(+)、家庭支持(-)与男生自杀倾向显著相关。另一方面，作为性少数群体(+)，父母教养方式(包括温暖(-)、羞辱(+)和忽视(+)，教师支持(-)和男女朋友支持(-)，学校条件(包括学习氛围(-)和课外活动(-))与女性参与者的自杀倾向显著相关。

ABSTRACT The present paper outlines parental pathological projective identification as a form of childhood adversity that some patients attempt to address in psychotherapy. This phenomenon involves a parent’s unconscious relocation of an unbearable state of mind, combined with the interpersonal evocation of such in the child. A child’s effort to deal with this experience may involve the development of pathogenic beliefs about the self. These beliefs subsequently cause difficulties in living and considerable distress. Through understanding the dynamics of parental pathological projective identification, clinicians may help patients to develop insight into the origins of their pathogenic beliefs, along with appropriate corrective experiences. The integration of Control-Mastery Theory with the concept of parental pathological projective identification can facilitate such understanding. A clinical example is provided to illustrate these concepts and their relevance to psychotherapy with adult patients.

The emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) has hampered international efforts to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. VOCs have been characterized to varying degrees by higher transmissibility, worse infection outcomes and evasion of vaccine and infection-induced immunologic memory. VOCs are hypothesized to have originated from animal reservoirs, communities in regions with low surveillance and/or single individuals with poor immunologic control of the virus. Yet, the factors dictating which variants ultimately predominate remain incompletely characterized. Here we present a multi-scale model of SARS-CoV-2 dynamics that describes population spread through individuals whose viral loads and numbers of contacts (drawn from an over-dispersed distribution) are both time-varying. This framework allows us to explore how super-spreader events (SSE) (defined as greater than five secondary infections per day) contribute to variant emergence. We find stochasticity remains a powerful determinant of predominance. Variants that predominate are more likely to be associated with higher infectiousness, an SSE early after variant emergence and ongoing decline of the current dominant variant. Additionally, our simulations reveal that most new highly infectious variants that infect one or a few individuals do not achieve permanence in the population. Consequently, interventions that reduce super-spreading may delay or mitigate emergence of VOCs.

ABSTRACT Our manuscript discusses the importance of the Social Work Grand Challenge of Technology. We believe it is the most cross-cutting of the 12 original challenges and reflects the wave of technology that has already changed our daily lives and many practices and clinical fields including social work. Specifically, the goal of this challenge is to positively change the profession by using technology to drive transformations producing more service accessibility, better outcomes, and a change in social work’s relationship to technology, including throughout academia. A discussion of the history and barriers to change, the standards for use of technology, promising technology applications, and an overview of policies and research are covered. Further, recommendations for research exploring field educators’ and social work students’ perspectives, concerns, and behaviors related to technology are suggested to produce strategies for a broad roadmap for positive technology innovation within the social work profession. The path forward runs through the use of technology in both university settings and field settings. The question for the social work profession is we commit to this, and if so, how?

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to explore experiences of violence and victimization among Black adults with serious mental illnesses (SMIs) in mental health services. Fourteen Black individuals with SMIs participated in semi-structured interviews exploring their experiences and definitions of community. Thematic analysis revealed that participants experienced personal and vicarious criminal/violent encounters, putting them at high risk for adverse mental health and quality of life outcomes. Utilizing the structurally engineered trauma perspective and an intersectionality-based framework, implications for social work practice for preventing and reducing violence and victimization with Black populations with SMIs are discussed.

ABSTRACT Discussing race and racism in classroom settings presents challenges for instructors and students alike. Although studies have shown that these conversations are difficult, the literature on higher education classrooms in general and social work education is sparse. This qualitative study used focus groups to explore the perceptions and experiences of 28 recent MSW graduates discussing race and racism in their MSW courses. Analysis of the data revealed four themes: the variability in experience of discussion, pedagogical techniques and the role of the instructor, participants’ emotional reactions, and advice for instructors. The findings imply that classroom discussions about race and racism must be intentional and comprehensive. Central to this are instructors who acknowledge their positionality and its impact on classroom dynamics.

ABSTRACT Migrant presence is a social reality in most societies of today. Most of the research on migrant health comes from countries popular for migration. Thus, research on migrant health is less available in developing worlds. This study, therefore, investigated psychological distress among Liberian migrants in Nigeria with shame and social supports as correlates. Participants were Liberian migrants residing in a refugee camp in Nigeria. With a quantitative research approach, data were collected via the use of questionnaires from 520 participants, 64.2% men and 35.8% women. Findings revealed that psychological distress is heightened by a predisposition to experience shame. On the other hand, social support was associated with less psychological distress. The implications of these findings were discussed and emphasis was placed on committing more effort to research on migrant health in Nigeria.

ABSTRACT This article focuses on internalized racial oppression, a less understood yet detrimental aspect of racism. This article is based on a qualitative grounded theory study that explored how Black women psychotherapists understand the phenomenon. Literature and findings reveal that there is no existing shared understanding of how Black women experience IRO. Findings support how systemic racism upholds IRO and how IRO is intersectional. I use sociopolitical concepts and psychological object relations to discuss the findings as understood by Black women. In this, colorism, hair texturism, double consciousness were unexpected but important findings. Implications and future directions are discussed.

ABSTRACT Anti-Black Racism (A-BR) has led to recent and highly publicized killings of African Americans (AA). Still absent from the professional and scientific social work (SWK) literature are multilevel descriptions of recommendations for advancing AA racial justice (AARJ). First, the manuscript provides a brief summary of historical forms of American structural, interpersonal, and intrapersonal racism. A cost-benefit analysis was conducted to aid social workers in resolving ambiguity regarding the SWK profession’s role in advancing AARJ. Multilevel, nuanced recommendations for policy, clinical practice, and educational SWK interventions are provided. The recommendations are diverse and can be implemented across multiple levels of SWK practice. For the social work profession to reach its potential, it must recognize and use its distinctive qualities for advancing AARJ.
