Dynamic Social Networks in Recovery Homes
Acute treatment aftercare in the form of sober living environments—i.e., recovery houses—provide an inexpensive and effective medium‐term treatment alternative for many with substance use disorders. Limited evidence suggests that house‐situated social relationships and associated social support are critical determinants of how successful these residential experiences are for their members, but little is known about the mechanisms underlying these…
An Investigation of Hope and Context
One of the tenets of community psychology is examining psychological phenomena in context, and our studies explored the relationship between hope and context among individuals in recovery for substance use disorders. Study 1 involved 595 participants who resided in 90 recovery homes. We found that context, as house effects, was salient in residents’ perceptions of hope, suggesting that the context of recovery homes–their configurations and dynami…
Hope, Self‐esteem, and Self‐regulation
Hopefulness remains unclear in relation to aspects of self‐control and self‐esteem among adults in substance abuse recovery. The present study explored the relationship between dispositional hope (agency and pathway) with self‐esteem (self‐liking, self‐competency, and self‐confidence) and self‐regulation (impulse control and self‐discipline), using a latent variable measurement model and structural equation modeling among adults ( n = 601) residi…

The essays below continue a debate that began with the publication of Michael B. Katz, The Irony of Early School Reform: Educational Innovation in Mid-Nineteenth Century Massachusetts (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1968). One celebrated part of this important work was a study of the controversy over the public high school in Beverly, Massachusetts, including a close analysis of the vote in 1860 to abolish the school. The occasion for these…

And, finally, having authored the Report on the Barbarous Indians of the Province of Texas, Padilla possessed knowledge of the local Indians which might have allowed him to arrange McQueen's murder. Why was this account included? McLean's objective was to prove that Sterling C. Robertson, also standing to gain from McQueen's death, was not the murderer. To…
