Trajectory of Deconstruction Among Fundamentalist Exvangelical Women
Leaving a strongly socialized identity can be particularly stressful. Using interviews with 32 women who left fundamentalist Christianity and now identify as atheist or agnostic, this study explores religious upbringings and how they shaped participants’ processes of leaving their faith communities. Results illustrate the toll of religious deconstruction, as well as resilience and agency in navigating identity outside previous religious framework…

Moving Beyond Red Flags for Imposter Participants
Health research guides health practice and policy; therefore, data integrity is of the utmost importance. The use of incentives to compensate respondents for their discomfort and inconvenience in sharing their lived experiences has unfortunately drawn imposter participants, posing significant threats to the trustworthiness and transferability of qualitative data. A growing literature provides "red flags" and methods for identifying imposters, suc…

Social service providers under Covid-19 duress
1472), we ask: (1) how did agencies and social service workers manage service disruptions associated with COVID-19; (2) how did social service workers perceive shifts in clients' needs; (3) how did social service workers experience the transition to remote interactions with clients; and (4) how did social service workers cope with COVID-related transitions and demands. Findings: Our findings tell a story of unprecedented crises alongside powerful…
Social work ‘voice’ and interprofessional education
Interprofessional education (IPE) ideally trains students from various disciplines together. Social work historically has lower status and power in the healthcare hierarchy, and little is known about how status differentials affect ‘social work voice’ during IPE. We explored ‘social work voice’ during an IPE event through social work students’, other disciplines’ students’, and social work faculty perspectives. We share the lessons learned from r…
Revising ruling discourses
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross' pioneering work focused on dying, yet some clinicians persist in prescribing it as a path through grief. We surveyed 964 mental health clinicians who completed a five-section mixed methods survey: two sections assessed knowledge with multiple choice questions and a case study to assess clinicians' knowledge-base and approach to grief/loss in practice. Analysis of four items related to Kübler-Ross' model and 66/962 case stud…
From Abortion Rights to Reproductive Justice
As aggressive cultural and legislative attacks on abortion rights and access continue, we call upon social workers to pursue the liberatory aims of the reproductive justice (RJ) movement. We argue that the RJ framework, rooted in feminist theory, aligns with social work's social justice ethos and goals, appropriately guiding advocacy and intervention. After outlining the central aims and tenets of the RJ movement, we consider policies that impair…
Forget the “Five Stages”
The COVID-19 pandemic has inflicted widespread loss, most notably as the result of over 1 million deaths; however, we are also mourning lost jobs, relationships, schooling, security, rituals of transition (e.g., graduations, marriages, funerals), and a sense of security. Now more than ever, social workers must be prepared to assist grievers compassionately and competently. Grief scholars, theorists, and well-attuned practitioners regard Kübler-Ro…
Actions and Uncertainty
The development of genomic technologies has seemed almost magical. Excitement about it, both in medicine and among the public, stems from the belief that genomic techniques will illuminate the causes of health and disease, will lead to effective interventions for both rare and common genetic conditions, and will inform reproductive decision‐making. Novel diagnostic tools, however, are often deployed before targeted therapies are developed, tested…
They Say, “If You Don’t Relax…You’re Going to Make Something Bad Happen”
Little is known about how women with medically high-risk pregnancy manage their emotions while worried about their pregnancies. This study aimed to phenomenologically explore 16 hospitalized women’s emotional reactions and coping during medically high-risk pregnancy with a focus on how emotion management techniques were utilized and what rationales women used for employing them, along with their interpretations of health care providers’ and famil…
A phenomenology of informal caregiving for HIV/Aids in India
Women provide informal caregiving across the world and are often expected to provide care even when ailing themselves. We explore the lived experience of 33 impoverished married Indian women living with HIV and caring for their husbands and/or children living with HIV. Drawing on concepts of authoritative knowledge (AK), self-efficacy and resilience, we found a trajectory that reveals barriers to accessing care, yet we also found that women devel…
HIV Health Care Providers as Street-Level Bureaucrats
Client-provider relationships have significant effects on how individuals comprehend their life situation during chronic disease and illness. Yet, little is known about how frontline health care providers (HCPs) influence client’s identity formation through meaning-making with clients such as HIV-positive women living in poverty. This requires ethical consideration of the meanings made between clients and providers about client’s health and well-…
Drug adherence levels are falling down again’
Integrated models of HIV/AIDS service delivery are believed to have advantages over stand-alone models of care from health planners' and providers' perspectives. Integration models differ, yet there is little information about the influence of differing models on workers' beliefs about models' efficacy. Here, we examine the effect of integration of HIV care into the general health system in India. In 2014, India replaced its stand-alone model of …
On Being Mother and Patient
Medically high‐risk pregnancy (MHRP) affects 3 to 10% (diagnosis‐dependent) of pregnant women in the United States (National Institute of Child Health Development, 2015), threatening maternal and fetal well‐being. Although mothers’ prenatal distress and mother–infant attachment after birth have been quantitatively researched, little research has examined women's lived experiences of MHRP in the United States. We examined 16 women's experiences of…
Practicing maternal virtues prematurely
In this study, we examine the phenomenology of maternal identity development among U.S. women hospitalized with medically high-risk pregnancies (MHRP). We conducted 16 in-depth interviews with women and found that they drew on culturally normative notions of maternal nurture, worry, and sacrifice to construct maternal identity in the context of MHRP. Based on our findings, we suggest that MHRP shape women's sense of connection to and distinctive …
In Response to Need
In this qualitative research synthesis, interviews with 22 early health-related social workers were reexamined to identify themes that emerged when these social workers discussed the roles and goals of their work. Those interviews, with colleagues of Ida M. Cannon and those leaders in the next generation of social workers who had practiced during the first half of the 20th century, were conducted in 1976. For this study, the themes that emerged f…

Authoritative Knowledge, the Technological Imperative and Women’s Responses to Prenatal Diagnostic Technologies
What Do Women Want? Experiences and Reflections of Women After Prenatal Diagnosis and Termination for Anomaly
It is difficult to hear the voices of women describing their experiences of perinatal health care in the United States. This article reports results from interviews with 30 women about their experience of pregnancy termination for fetal anomaly (TFA) and their encounters with the medical system during the diagnosis through the aftermath of termination process. The ways researchers inadvertently silence women's voices are analyzed. Themes emerged …
Discrepant feeling rules and unscripted emotion work
The sociology of emotion is rapidly evolving and has implications for medical settings. Advancing medical technologies create new contexts for decision-making and emotional reaction that are framed by "feeling rules." Feeling rules guide not only behavior, but also how one believes one should feel, thereby causing one to attempt to bring one's authentic feelings into line with perceived feeling rules. Using qualitative data, the theoretical exist…
I'm not a saint
Prenatal testing is widely utilized, yet few studies have explored decision-making processes about diagnosis from the pregnant woman's standpoint. This qualitative, exploratory study reveals a factor not accounted for in prior research geared toward associations between demographic categories and decisions. The 30 women in this study demonstrated a three-part decisional trajectory that included an effort to collect information about the challenge…
Revisiting the Benefits Debate
Social work discussion about the intersection of therapy and research has been heated. There is ongoing theoretical debate about the fit of qualitative research and social work practice, as well as the proper goals and potential impact of clinical research. In this article, two qualitative researchers report empirical findings and discuss the implications of their research participants' unsolicited identification of the benefits of engaging in in…
Conducting Intensive Interviews Using Email
This article examines the use of computer-mediated recruitment and email intensive interviewing in contrast to more traditional methods of data collection. Email interviewing is compared to telephone and face-to-face interviewing with the same study population utilizing the same interview guide. This allows analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each interview format to emerge. This serendipitous comparison opportunity arose from a study…
