Patient COUNTS
Many Asian American cancer patients face barriers to cancer care but little is known about their navigational needs. We designed and implemented a pilot study to provide culturally- and linguistically-appropriate navigation for Asian American cancer patients. We recruited Asian American adults age 21+ years, who spoke English, Cantonese, Mandarin, or Vietnamese, with newly diagnosed, stage I-III colorectal, liver, or lung cancer in the Northern C…
Intimate Partner Violence Against Women in Zimbabwe
The present study examines intimate partner violence (IPV) reported by a sample of women in Zimbabwe to explore factors associated with the problem. Findings from the study indicate an important role of gender relationships in violence against women. The effects of gender inequalities on the likelihood of IPV vary with types of violence, but husband's patriarchal behaviors increase the likelihood of all forms of violence. The study suggests the i…
Immigration and Crime
Theories and perspectives on immigration and crime mainly focus on the roles of individual motivation, cultural conflicts, the social context of immigration resettlement, and assimilation in shaping immigrants' behavior and adaptation outcomes. Research has provided some support for these theories and perspectives, but most of them, except the acculturation model, have not been systematically tested. Because immigrants are not a homogeneous group…

Immigration, Masculinity, and Intimate Partner Violence From the Standpoint of Domestic Violence Service Providers and Vietnamese-Origin Women
Data from in-depth interviews with Vietnamese immigrant women residing in the United States and both interviews and a focus group with service providers for abused Vietnamese immigrants suggest a complex relationship among job market context, changing norms about appropriate feminine behavior, immigration adaptation, masculinity, and men's violence against intimate partners. During immigration resettlement, men's economic status can worsen, there…
Getting Out of Harm's Way
The study identifies predictors of women's remaining entangled in abusive relationships. The sample includes 57 women in one Vietnamese American enclave. Women's beliefs in maintaining an intact family, patriarchal decision making, and fear of their partners characterized women remaining. To a lesser extent, seeking help from a variety of places characterized women who escaped, and concern with achieving important goals, number of children, finan…
Parent—Child Conflicts, School Troubles, and Differences in Delinquency Across Immigration Generations
This study examines delinquent behavior among schoolchildren in a nationally representative sample from the United States and seeks an understanding of the factors contributing to variances in delinquency across immigration generations. Data analysis indicates that the levels of self-reported substance use, property delinquency, and violent delinquency among first-generation students are significantly lower than those among students from later im…
The Connection of U.S. Best Practices to Outcomes for Vietnamese American Women Abused by Intimate Partners
A grounded theory approach and sensitizing concepts were used to study U.S. best practices for addressing intimate partner violence against 55 Vietnamese American women interviewed at the beginning and end of a twelve‐month period. Advocacy agency, police, and court contact were associated with women's decisions to leave abusive relationships. Also associated were Vietnamese‐speaking professionals and referrals between helping sources. Women's ob…
Risk Factors for Abusive Relationships
This study identifies risk factors for Vietnamese American women's abuse. Intensive interviews with 129 Vietnamese women immigrants in a northeastern metropolitan area provided data to examine risk factors for sexual, physical, and verbal abuse. Patriarchal gender arrangements in the family, arguments about fulfilling gender and family roles, and partner's threat that divorce would compromise the participant's immigration status put women at risk…
Perceptions of Intimate Violence and Attitudes Toward Interventions
The present study investigates the effects of perceptions of intimate violence, knowledge of domestic violence policies, and attitudes toward domestic violence interventions among Vietnamese Americans. Data analyses indicate that Vietnamese Americans tend to view intimate violence as a problem and strongly support government interventions, but they are not likely to support criminal justice interventions. Perceptions of the problems and attitudes…
Help-Seeking Behavior Among Abused Immigrant Women
The present study examines help-seeking behavior among abused Vietnamese American women to understand factors associated with their decisions to seek help. Using a qualitative method and data obtained from in-depth interviews with 34 abused Vietnamese American women selected from four different Vietnamese communities in the United States (Orange County, CA; Houston, TX; Boston, MA; and Lansing, MI) and 11 Vietnamese Americans who had contacts wit…
Domestic Violence Victims' Behavior in Favor of Prosecution
This article examines how economic, emotional and social-power related factors affect victims' behavior in favor of prosecution during police investigations. Data drawn from police records and police narrative reports indicated that mutual charge, dual arrest, the severity of assaults and the severity of injuries suffered by victims negatively affected the victims' behavior in favor of prosecution. These findings suggest that the norm of unequal …
Cultural-Specific Gender Ideology and Wife Abuse in Mexican-Descent Families
The present study, which was designed to improve understanding of the context, patterns, and meanings of violence against wives, uses a standpoint-based approach which incorporates a symbolic interactionist method and a feminist perspective to examine wife abuse in Mexican-descent families. Findings from the study indicate that wife abuse occurs in the complex context of economic hardship, changes in gender role expectations and performances, and…
Domestic Violence in the Vietnamese Immigrant Community
This study examines domestic violence in Vietnamese American families, focusing on changes in socioeconomic structure and culture, to identify factors associated with wife abuse. Husbands' patriarchal beliefs and dominant positions in the family and conflicts about changing norms and values between husbands and wives were found to be related to wife abuse. The study suggests that class, culture, gender, and immigration status could simultaneously…
