Environmental Correlates of Children's Physical Activity and Obesity
Future preventive practice requires a multifaceted approach incorporating both individual and environmental changes
Determinants of Parental Perception and Support on Youth Physical Activity
The study examines the impact of parental perception of children's weight and parental support on children's physical activity (PA) by weight groups. Multivariate regressions of parental perception of children's weight, parental support, and children's PA were conducted using parent-reported survey data. Results show that parental support was positively associated with children's PA. The impact of parental perception on children's PA and parentin…
Evidence-Based Policymaking
Family-to-Work Conflict
Balancing parenthood and a successful career in workplace holds unique challenges, especially for women who often report greater demands in terms of child care and family obligations. Gender and parenthood status influence couple's definitions and perceptions of the work and family demands and responsibilities, and thus lead to different work and family outcomes measured by job satisfaction and marital satisfaction. This study examines gender dif…
Grandparents Caring for their Grandchildren
Families are the safety nets for society. They handle whatever problem there is no program or organizational response to solve in the larger society. Normative arrangements for exchange and transfer that have served families well for many generations are under considerable strain as demographic, medical and economic change has increased the length of time generations care for each other, the severity of problems that people are surviving while co…
Culturally Diverse Elders and Their Families
Demographic shifts among the aging population of the United States call for a re-examination of our understanding of the needs of these individuals, especially when race, ethnicity, family composition, and country of origin are considered in the discourse. This paper examines some of the implications of the rapid increase in racial and ethnic diversity among the older population in the United States for delivering culturally competent care throug…
Intergenerational Relationships and Elderly Care in China
Based on a review of recent research literature, major value-practice conflicts toward elderly care in China are explored, some commonalities and differentiations of real practices with traditional values are presented, the emerging new values in intergenerational relationships are discussed, and the theoretical underpinnings of interdependency are examined. Some sociologists had predicted a continuing decrease in family interdependence and careg…

Being at Home in a Global Society
Home as a concept has several dimensions and aspects of theoretical importance. From a family and individual perspective being at can mean a variety of different statuses and experiences. In the global society the question arises as to how families and their members are able to negotiate establishing a home and having a place as well as group identity. For this analysis the term home will be used to capture the differences between family househol…
Immigrant and Ethnic Minority families
The impact of intergenerational transmission processes on the intercultural contact and ethnic identification of second generation adolescents is studied in five different groups of migrant families: Italian, Greek, and Turkish work migrants, German repatriates from Russia, and Jewish immigrants from Russia to Israel. In each group, 400 dyads of parents and adolescents with the same sex were interviewed with a standardized questionnaire in the la…
Conflicts between Family Strategies and State Policy in a Global Society
The mismatch in scale between the coping strategies and resources of family units and their kinship connections and the scope of state policy, international economic and political institutions and access to mobility has often led to seeing the individual and family as a dependent variable in scientific studies of ethnicity and migration. The relationships between families and nationstates in the issue of immigration is one in which it would seem …
