Learning from the Lived Experience of Women Leaders of Faith
This essay introduces the Faith-Anchored Dynamic Resilience (FADR) Model, developed inductively from personal essays written by 73 women leaders across 46 countries and six faith traditions. Rather than fitting their experiences into existing frameworks, the analysis traces recurring patterns across narratives to construct a four-layer model: a Foundation of faith, identity, and community; eight Dynamic Capacities organized around in-the-moment a…
Meatpacking America
An engaging look at meatpacking in Iowa and the people connected by it, Kristy Nabhan-Warren's Meatpacking America weaves a story of religion, community, and the push and pull of belonging. Taking the reader from the killing floors of pork processing plants to the decaying gardens of closed Catholic parishes, Nabhan-Warren sheds light on the complicated nature of current migration patterns and refugee experiences. She insists that small-town Iowa…
Becoming Through Belonging
This essay explores the identity pathway to realizing one’s full potential within the religious framework of women from a multi-faith perspective. When exploring one’s calling for meaningfulness, women of faith search for answers within their ascribed roles culturally and their higher calling from the Divine. In the search for becoming, they find their sense of belonging within their religions. Belonging gives their lives a sense of purpose and r…
The Effects of Elderly Koreans’ Individual Characteristics on Living Arrangements
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of individual characteristics of elderly Koreans on their living arrangements. Interviews with elderly persons aged 65 years and over were conducted in Seoul, the capital of Korea.The study population was Korean elderly people who lived either independently or with their children. The sample was stratified to represent older adults in high- and low - income areas of Seoul. Regression was used f…
Attachment‐to‐Home
Traditional models of residential mobility use sociodemographic characteristics, housing characteristics, and residential satisfaction to explain the desire to move. This study compared the traditional mobility model with one that incorporated psychological attachment‐to‐home as an additional variable. Data were analyzed for 198 subjects who responded to a mail questionnaire and in‐depth telephone interview. Correlation analysis revealed that two…
Housing Affordability
A major concern of the American public is housing affordability. The purpose of this study was to investigate how general housing market factors differed between rural and urban counties in a midwestern state and their effect on housing affordability. Research results suggest that in urban counties the housing market factors have a higher mean score than those of rural areas. Housing financing programs and regulations are more apparent in urban a…
A Casual Model of Barriers and Incentives to Affordable Housing in Southern Rural Communities
Housing type diversity was examined from two dimensions: type of non-single housing available and perception of number of housing types available within rural communities. There are several factors which contribute to the diversity of housing options: regulations, finance, and practices available within communities which support the development of various housing types and forms. The range in diverse options is a major influence on affordability …
Theses and Dissertations Completed in Home Economics
This article reports a summary of the 726 titles of theses and dissertations completed in Home Economics in colleges and universities throughout the United States in 1993. The tables illustrate information about graduate research in the Human Sciences. These tables summarize the information by institution, subject matter, ranking of institutions, and leading subject matter areafor the years 1989‐1993
Empirical Evaluation of Relationships in a Proposed Perceptive‐Boundaries Paradigm
This article presents an evaluation of relationships in the perceptive‐boundaries paradigm. The paradigm encompasses previous work in sociopsychological aspects of housing and provides a conceptual basis for integrating prior findings into a holistic model. Perception of adequate housing is based on culture, experiences, norms, and values. Perceptions are believed to filter one's view of the housing environment and influence both housing preferen…

Housing Values Patterns and Orientation of Households
This article assesses the housing value patterns and the impact of socio-demographic characteristics on housing value orientation. With a paired-comparison format which included family, personal, economy, and social value statements, two popular housing value patterns were identified based on ranking orders: “FEPS” (family-economy-personal-social) and “FPES” (family-personal-economy-social). When a paired comparison of the statement of economy an…
Innovative Housing Adoption Model for Households
Rogers’ Innovative-Decision Theory was used to develop a framework and model to study acceptance of innovative housing. The dependent variables for the model were level of knowledge, innovativeness, willingness; and attitude toward housing innovations. The independent variables included the basic demographic and social variables that influence the housing acquisition process. Sex, age, and education were important in the adoption process. The hou…
Perceptive Boundaries
This preliminary study examines the conceptual links among variables employed in Housing Adjustment Theory (Morris and Winter, 1975) and Housing Values (Cutler, 1947; Beyer, Mackesey, and Montgomery, 1955). Two variables--the perception of adequate housing and sociopsychological housing congruence--are added to the five fundamental, sociopsychological aspects cited from previous studies. The framework for a new model is proposed with these new va…
The Determinants of Residential Environmental Qualities and Satisfaction
As an exploratory study, an environmental evaluation model was proposed and tested. To test the model, an Analysis of Linear Structural Relationships (LISREL) was used. County housing practices (financing, housing programs, and housing regulations) were included as well as socio-demographic variables as exogenous variables. Despite some measurement error, overall model fit was concluded. There was no direct effect of exogenous variables on reside…
A Housing-Decision Framework
This paper explains the theoretical bases and procedures used in developing and testing a housing-decision framework. The framework presented 1) assumes that consumer choice among housing alternatives is a function of available knowledge and predictability of intertemporal or future impact of a decision, and 2) requires the rating of six socio-economic and production factors on three conditions of choice resulting in an 18-cell matrix for assessi…

A Research Note on
Using Annual Housing survey data, the choice of housing location and mode of transportation to work are compared for the years 1974 and 1977. Chi-square analysis indicates that households are choosing to minimize their transportation costs to work by locating their housing closer to the workplace and using less-expensive modes of transportation than in the past
