Understanding Nepalese Labor Migration to Gulf Countries
This work explores the reasons Nepalese emigrate for employment to Persian Gulf countries, despite potential risks of doing so. The authors obtained data from questionnaires administered to Nepalese who reside in rural areas. The data suggest that Nepalese realize the dangers associated with the Gulf. However, Nepalese emigrate because of limited opportunities in Nepal, an obligation to improve their families’ well-being, and the allure of Gulf n…
Craigslist Exposed
This research examines how people advertise themselves on Craigslist. The authors develop a framework that highlights 13 resources that heterosexual and homosexual men and women offer in Craigslist advertisements. The results reveal that many heterosexual advertisers offer and seek similar resources on Craigslist, whereas gay men primarily use Craigslist to seek and offer sex. About one-fourth of homosexual advertisers are in committed relationsh…

Disadvantaged individuals and individuals who live in disadvantaged communities are more likely to support vouchers but social st…

Most research, however, tests related theories in isolation from one another and focuses on black‐white contact. This article tests contact, cultural, and group threat theories to learn how contact in different interactive settings affects whites' stereotypes of blacks and Hispanics, …
