    Open AccessEmily Adlin Bosk, Joanna Kempner et al.ARTICLESociological Forum2023

  • Exploring barriers to, and enablers of, evidence-informed hip fracture care in five low- middle-income countries

    Open AccessElizabeth Armstrong, Xuejun Yin et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2022

    Globally, populations are ageing and the estimated number of hip fractures will increase from 1.7 million in 1990 to more than 6 million in 2050. The greatest increase in hip fractures is predicted in Low- and Middle–Income Countries (LMICs), largely in the Asia-Pacific region where direct costs are expected to exceed $US15 billion by 2050. The aims of this qualitative study are to identify barriers to, and enablers of, evidence–informed hip frac…

  • Measuring impacts of continuing professional development (CPD)

    Louise M Allen, Claire Palermo et al.ARTICLEMedical Teacher2021

    Introduction Evaluating continuing professional development (CPD) programs is essential to demonstrate their value to participants and their institutions, and to inform the improvement and quality of CPD programs. Existing surveys measure a narrow range of impacts. This study developed a survey that can measure a broad range of impacts of CPD programs, not just those that are easily measured such as knowledge, skills, attitudes and confidence.Met…

  • Applying a social theory of learning to explain the possible impacts of continuing professional development (CPD) programs

    Louise M Allen, Margaret Hay et al.ARTICLEMedical Teacher2020

    BACKGROUND: Continuing professional development (CPD) is essential for life-long learning of health professionals, yet evaluations of CPD focus on a narrow range of impacts. This study explored the range of impacts that are possible from attending CPD programs that foster social learning, and applied Wenger's social theory of learning to explain why these impacts occur. METHODS: Twenty semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with a pur…

  • How and How Much

    Open AccessElizabeth Armstrong, Beth Glover Reed et al.ARTICLEViolence Against Women2019References: 3

    This study generates practice-based evidence about organizational strategies for addressing co-occurring domestic violence (DV) and substance abuse (SA) using a survey of organizations working on both issues ( N = 204). How (the strategies) and how much (the extensiveness) organizations attend to both issues vary by organizational type (DV, SA, or multiservice) and populations served. While most SA and multiservice organizations address DV intern…

  • Hegemonic Femininities and Intersectional Domination

    Open AccessL T Hamilton, E A Armstrong et al.ARTICLESociological Theory2019Cited by: 55References: 99

    We examine how two sociological traditions account for the role of femininities in social domination. The masculinities tradition theorizes gender as an independent structure of domination; consequently, femininities that complement hegemonic masculinities are treated as passively compliant in the reproduction of gender. In contrast, Patricia Hill Collins views cultural ideals of hegemonic femininity as simultaneously raced, classed, and gendered…

  • Good Girls

    Open AccessE A Armstrong, L T Hamilton et al.ARTICLESocial Psychology Quarterly2014Cited by: 114References: 18

    Women's participation in slut shaming is often viewed as internalized oppression: they apply disadvantageous sexual double standards established by men. This perspective grants women little agency and neglects their simultaneous location in other social structures. In this article we synthesize insights from social psychology, gender, and culture to argue that undergraduate women use slut stigma to draw boundaries around status groups linked to s…

  • De-Romanticizing Black Intergenerational Support

    Open AccessKatrina Bell Mcdonald, Elizabeth M Armstrong et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2001Cited by: 17References: 24

    Past research suggests that despite the substantial strengths of Black kin networks, they are not always up to the task of supporting young mothers. This study is an analysis of potential barriers to women-centered kin support for present-day urban Black teen mothers and possible implications for kin support mandates specified in the 1996 federal welfare reforms. In-depth interviews with African American midlife women, who themselves were teen mo…

  • Lessons in Control

    Elizabeth M Armstrong, Elizabeth ArmstrongARTICLESocial Problems2000Cited by: 25References: 14

    As childbirth has become medicalized, a gap has opened between the needs and wishes of the individual woman giving birth and the dictates of the institution where birth occurs, the hospital. One way the medical establishment has sought to reconcile these differences is through prenatal education. Drawing on participant observation of a series of prenatal classes for poor and working-class women at a large urban hospital and interviews with the pa…
