Embracing Queer Temporality in Academic Social Work
Current sociopolitical conditions of American higher education introduce profound demands on the time, energy, and attention of all educators. Scholars in fields with ethical commitments to justice, equity, and diversity, including social work and gender and sexuality studies, are especially affected, with those at the intersection of these fields multiplicatively impacted. This commentary draws upon queer temporality literature to reimagine how …
The Poetic Life Narratives of Midlife and Older Bisexual Adults
Empirical discourses surrounding bisexuality often focus on challenges and disparities. This analysis identifies counternarratives of coping and survival among 21 midlife and older bisexual individuals. Findings are presented in three found poems followed by interpretations within participants’ life experiences. Each poem depicts an “act” of life, separating narratives into three stages of meaning-making. Act I: The Struggle captures early-to mid…
Depression and Anxiety in Hospice Patients
Depression and anxiety are prevalent among hospice patients. A detailed understanding of the symptom comorbidity and key symptoms of depression and anxiety among Chinese hospice patients can promote targeted interventions. This study investigates the depression and anxiety symptom network and compares networks in different symptom groups in 388 Chinese hospice patients. Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and the Seven-Item Generalized Anxiety Disorde…
Bisexual Individuals Envisioning Aging Futures
This study explores the future outlooks of 21 bisexual adults (aged 51–71) in the U.S. Guided by the recent calls to queer aging futures, semi-structured life-review interviews were analyzed inductively. Four future outlooks emerged, forming two contrasting but not mutually exclusive pairs: Exploratory and Settling-Down, and Affirmation and Fraught. Exploratory outlooks were marked by anticipation of fluidity in sexuality, gender, and social conn…
Reorganizing bonds
Despite growing research on bereavement, the experience of China's only-child generation after parental loss remains insufficiently examined. This study explores the bereavement experiences of only-child adults who provided end-of-life care to their parents. Using thematic analysis of interviews with 15 participants and fieldwork materials, and guided by the Continuing Bonds perspective, four themes emerged: Losing You Is Losing Me and the World:…
Navigating Interdependence
The one-child policy has shaped the life trajectories of millions of only children in China. As this cohort ages into mid-life, providing end-of-life care to their aging parents is becoming a critical social issue. Their lived experiences and sociopolitical context likely lead to distinctive end-of-life caregiving experiences; however, to date no existing literature has investigated this phenomenon. This study uses a convenience sample of 15 adul…
Attitudes toward end-of-life care and preferred death locations
Older adults' attitudes toward end-of-life (EOL) care significantly affect its utilization. This study explored latent profiles of EOL care attitudes, their characteristics, and relations to prefer death locations among 498 Chinese community-dwelling adults aged 50 and above. Exploratory factor analysis identified four distinct dimensions of EOL care attitudes: "life reflection and legacy," "physical comfort and pain management," "autonomy and de…
Unpacking the Roles of Psychological Distress and Social Well-Being in Minority Stress
While many sexual- and gender-minority adults experience significant rates of everyday discrimination, less is known about how it shapes life satisfaction and the psychosocial mechanisms involved. Using three waves of nationwide data on 612 sexual- and gender-minority adults in the United States from the Generations study, we analyzed the relationships between everyday discrimination, psychological distress, social well-being, and life satisfacti…
Professional Identity and Turnover Intention amongst Chinese Social Workers
The turnover rate of social workers is extremely high and the predictive roles of professional identity and job burnout on turnover intention have not been explored in China. The study examined the relationship between professional identity and turnover intention, mediated by job burnout and moderated by a social work degree, amongst social workers in China. Based on a sample of 829 participants and the structural equation model method, the findi…
For money or identity—or both? Which could promote the retention of social workers in China
Low pay and the absence of professional identity (PI) are often blamed as major antecedents related to the turnover of social workers in China, yet no study has provided any consideration of the two antecedents together in predicting the turnover intention (TI) of social workers and comparing them, which acts as a more powerful predictor. Based on a sample of 819 participants and by using structural equation models, the current study indicated wh…
