  • The Creation of Dangerous Violent Criminals

    Lonnie Athens, Lonnie H Athens et al.BOOKCreation of Dangerous Violent…2017

    Lonnie H. Athens’ path-breaking work examines a problem that has baffled experts and the general public alike: How does a person become a predatory violent criminal? In the original edition, the process that Athens labeled “violentization” encompassed four stages: brutalization, defiance, dominative engagements, and virulency. In this edition, Athens identifies a new final stage, violent predation, as the culmination of the violent criminal’s dev…

  • The Making of John James Audubon

    Jennifer J Baker, Rita Rhodes et al.ARTICLEThe William and Mary Quarterly2006

    In an 1830 letter to Philadelphia naturalist Richard Harlan, John James Audubon lamented how little Americans appreciated his ornithological work. A passage from this letter supports and also complicates efforts to claim Audubon as an American phenomenon: Where are our Washingtons, Franklins ... nay, even Jeffersons? 'No taste in America.' That is severe judgment indeed-and yet what can we say to the contrary. For my part, was I not an American I…

  • "Give Me Strengths!" Evaluating the Effectiveness of a Graduate Level HBSE Course

    Miriam Mcnown Johnson, Rita RhodesARTICLEJournal of Human Behavior in the…2001Cited by: 3References: 22

    This article reports on the findings of a quasi-experimental, nonequivalent comparison group design. Three class sections of MSW students and two class sections of graduate-level education students were asked to write responses to open-ended questions about at-risk populations. The perceptions of MSW students changed in a direction that might be anticipated given the CSWE mandates. The lack of a similar pattern among education students taking a h…

  • Students' Perceptions of Single Parents and Social Injustice: A Women's Issue

    Open AccessRita Rhodes, Miriam Mcnown JohnsonARTICLEAffilia2000Cited by: 4References: 4

    This study examined graduate social work students' perceptions of vulnerable populations. The results suggest that although the students were able to identify oppression as a factor in the lives of women and other at-risk populations, for the most part, their perceptions of single parents underscored the belief that the life conditions of femaleheaded families are the consequence of individual choice, rather than of societal arrangements that hav…

  • The Need for Nuclear Power

    Rita Rhodes, Richard Rhodes et al.ARTICLEForeign Affairs2000Cited by: 2

    The world needs more energy. Energy multiplies human labor, increasing productivity. It builds and lights schools, purifies water, powers farm machinery, drives sewing machines and robot assemblers, stores and moves information. World population is steadily increasing, having passed six billion in 1999. Yet one-third ofthat number?two billion people?lack access to electricity. Development depends on energy, and the alternative to development is s…

  • A Feminist Approach to Treating Alcohol and Drug-Addicted African-American Women

    Rita Rhodes, Ann JohnsonARTICLEWomen & Therapy1997Cited by: 3References: 4

    African-American women remain a population that is both unlikely to receive adequate treatment and more likely to be punished for behavior associated with alcohol and drug use. These societal responses originate, in part, in the failure of traditional addiction models to take into account the environmental context of addiction. Guided by the medical model in particular, the treatment community continues to identify addiction as a unitary experien…

  • Women and Alcoholism: A Psychosocial Approach

    Open AccessRita Rhodes, Ann Johnson et al.ARTICLEAffilia1994Cited by: 4References: 1

    This article contends that the unequal allocation of resources for women alcoholics is partly a result of the failure of models of addiction to take into account the special features of alcoholism in women. It discusses the problems of the medical and moral models for women alcoholics and argues that the psychosocial model is a more robust alternative for describing the addictive process and for creating effective interventions
