Holy Smokes! You’re Brave Girls: Parents’ and Daughters’ Perceptions About the Benefits ofHorse Sports
This study advances both risky play and symbolic interactionist intersubjectivity research by using dyadic matched daughter-parent qualitative interview data from 30 families in which daughters participated in Hunter/Jumper equestrian sports to explore what young people and their parents think daughters gain from participating in an extreme sport with a horse companion. Both parents and daughters strongly felt that horse sports helped daughters n…
“Orgullo por ser hija de esta fusión”: El 12 de octubre y las disputas de sentidos sobre una efeméride incómoda
Qué recordamos cuando conmemoramos el 12 de octubre? ¿Cómo se inscribe, rememora y enseña la fecha en las instituciones escolares? ¿Qué tensiones hay entre la enseñanza escolar y la construcción disputada de una memoria colectiva? Esta efeméride fue rebautizada en Argentina “Día del Respeto a la Diversidad Cultural” en el año 2010. La frase citada en el título fue publicada en Twitter/X en octubre de 2023 por la vicepresidenta Victoria Villarruel…

Among those who remained teachers, their careers ran the gamut from adjunct and lecturer lines through tenured a…
They Ease Your Mind: Horses as Co-Agents in Supernurturers' Self-Care
Lace up Your Boots and Do Something: A Symbolic-Interactionist Analysis of Girls and Young Women Equestrian Athletes' Resilience
This analysis illuminates how girls and young women dedicated to horse sports craft a resilient identity that they take to their wider lives. The constitutive features of their horse person identity are their willingness to love, care, and learn about horses combined with their embodied close relationships with specific horses. This horse person identity orients them toward a resilient mindset marked by perseverance, patience, and adaptability, a…

Grasping the effects of storyline complexity, task structure and proficiency in narrative writing performance
Task complexity has attracted the attention of researchers interested in syllabus design and language pedagogy since the eighties. A scarcely investigated feature is storyline complexity, and its effects on complexity, accuracy and fluency (CAF) in narrative writing. This study examines the effects of storyline complexity in the narratives of 60 low to upper-intermediate Swedish secondary school learners of Spanish as a foreign language. Furtherm…
A new theoretical engagement framework for citizen science projects: Using a multi-temporal approach to address long-term public engagement challenges
Effective citizen engagement is generally accepted as one of the most important steps for the success of citizen science programs. However, there is a lack of a common theoretical framework for recruitment and most projects rely on intuition or trial-and-error to develop their engagement strategies. Effective citizen science engagement needs theoretical participation frameworks and the concurrent action of different engagement roles to implement …
The interplay of task complexity (± Here-and-Now) and proficiency in shaping written narratives in Spanish as a foreign language
Research on task complexity focuses on the influence of different task features on language learners' production in terms of linguistic complexity, accuracy, fluency and lexis. Within this field, a line of investigation that has attracted much attention is the influence of resource-directing and resource-dispersing features of cognitive task complexity. Notwithstanding, the evidence assembled to date has yielded contradictory results that are not…
How performance standards could support innovation and technology-compatible fisheries management frameworks in the U.S
A healthy fishing industry requires real-time, adaptive, and flexible management to overcome increasing human and ecological threats. Electronic technologies (ET) are at the center of present-day discussions for how to enable robust fisheries management in the face of change. Looking at the United States as a case study, this work identifies the practice of centering regulation around defined, discrete classes of technology (e.g., electronic moni…

The L2 status factor hypothesis revisited: The role of metalinguistic knowledge, working memory, attention and noticing in third language learning
This chapter provides a nuanced view of the L2 status factor model, emphasizing explicit metalinguistic knowledge as the key factor governing transfer, together with individual differences in working memory and the operations associated with it. We argue that individual differences regarding the degree of explicit metalinguistic knowledge attained either in the L1 or in the L2 and differences when it comes to working memory, attention and noticin…
Transfer from an L2 in third language learning: A study on L2 proficiency
This chapter addresses the role of proficiency in a prior non-native language (L2 proficiency) on transfer in third language learning. It discusses some methodological considerations and gaps in previous research, while also bringing up conceptual difficulties in defining, operationalizing and measuring L2 proficiency. An empirical study is presented on the role played by overall proficiency in L2 German on the occurrence of transfer in L3 Englis…
Every Time They Ride, I Pray: ’ Parents’ Management of Daughters’ Horseback Riding Risks
This study uses qualitative interviews with 29 parents of horseback riding daughters aged 10–23 years old to explore parents’ perceptions of risk and their risk management strategies, as their daughters engage in horse sports and recreation. First, parents are keenly aware of risks in equestrian sports and liken them to risks from automobile accidents and other high-risk sports. Second, parents manage these risks by working diligently to enhance …
Empowerment and Condom Use Among Mexican and Mexican American Women in Illinois
This study used a survey of 218 Mexican women living in Illinois to test if measures of women’s empowerment in the economic, sociocultural, interpersonal/relational, and political dimensions influenced condom use. Our findings revealed that sociocultural and political forms of empowerment were significantly correlated with condom use. More specifically, women who were allowed to leave the house to visit friends without their husband/partner’s per…
Dummy Article Title
The extent to which English law remedies injury to autonomy (ITA) as a stand-alone actionable damage in negligence is disputed. In this article I argue that the remedy available is not only partial and inconsistent (Keren-Paz in Med Law Rev, 2018) but also gendered and discriminatory against women. I first situate the argument within the broader feminist critique of tort law as failing to appropriately remedy gendered harms, and of law more broad…
Developmental Patterns in Marital Satisfaction: Another Look at Covenant Marriage
This study investigated differences in the trajectory of marital satisfaction in the first 7 years between couples in covenant versus standard marriages. The authors analyzed data on 707 Louisiana marriages from the Marriage Matters Panel Survey of Newlywed Couples, 1998-2004, using multivariate longitudinal growth modeling. When the sample was restricted to couples who remained married over the duration of the study, a marginal benefit of covena…
Fiery wives and icy husbands: Pre-marital counseling and covenant marriage as buffers against effects of childhood abuse on gendered marital communication
Whose Time Is It: The Effect of Employment and Work/Family Stress on Children’s Housework
Children's time use-and specifically the time they spend on household chores-is an important arena for understanding social change. However, few studies accurately depict the multiple factors influencing children's household labor, including parent's and children's available time and parent's levels of work/family stress. We address these gaps by exploring how parents' and children's time use and perceived stress constrains time for housework. We…
Covenant Marriage and the Sanctification of Gendered Marital Roles
This study contributes to research on the deinstitutionalization of marriage and changing gender ideologies by focusing on a unique group of marriage innovators. With quantitative and qualitative data from the Marriage Matters project (1997-2004), this study used a symbolic interactionist perspective to compare covenant- and standard-married couples. Findings reveal that covenants are more traditional than standards across religious, marital, and…
The Use of Picture Stories in the Investigation of Crosslinguistic Influence
III One remarkable fact about the use of visual prompts in L2 research is that the characteristics that can make a picture story inappropriate for certain purposes can make that same picture story quite useful for other purposes.This is what we have found regarding our use of picture stories (and also films) in investigations of crosslinguistic and cross-cultural influences on L2 acquisition and use.From the perspective of the 33 criteria propose…
Attitudes Toward Gay Marriage in States Undergoing Marriage Law Transformation
This study examines attitudes toward gay marriage within the context of concern over the weakening of heterosexual marriage. We use data from a three-state survey conducted in 1998 - 2000 and designed to explore attitudes toward marriage and divorce reform (N = 976). We find that women, Whites, and younger persons are more approving of gay marriage than men, Blacks, and older persons. Nonparents with cohabitation experience are most approving, wh…
Links between premarital cohabitation and subsequent marital quality, stability, and divorce: A comparison of covenant versus standard marriages
Two as One: Couples’ Perceptions of Time Spent Together, Marital Quality, and the Risk of Divorce
This article employs event-history analysis of couple-level data from two waves of the National Survey of Families and Households to examine the effects of spouses' perceptions of shared time and marital quality and stability on subsequent odds of marital dissolution. Of central importance in the analysis is the role that gender plays, because empirical evidence documents significant gender variation in spouses' expectations, perceptions, and exp…
Setting the Clock Forward or Back: Covenant Marriage and the “Divorce Revolution
In 1997, Louisiana codified a new family form by becoming the first state to pass covenant marriage legislation. Soon after, Arizona and Arkansas followed suit. This act created two marriage types with substantially different marital and divorce provisions. In spring 1998, the authors conducted qualitative interviews with focus groups consisting of covenant married couples, feminist activists, and poor women living in public housing, examining th…
Becoming Mothers and Fathers: Parenthood, Gender, and the Division of Labor
This study used two waves of the National Survey of Families and Households (1987 to 1988 and 1992 to 1994) to examine the effect of the transition to parenthood on the division of labor among married couples, hypothesizing that parenthood would produce a more differentiated gender division of labor, but that attitudes and preparental division of labor would moderate parenthood. There were no effects of parenthood nor direct or moderating effects…

Women's and Men's Constructions of Perceptions of Housework Fairness
Much work on the perceived fairness of the division of housework focuses on what we consider pragmatic approaches (i.e., resources, time availability, and power), but nascent research articulates a more symbolic approach, examining relational meanings of house-work. We examine both perspectives simultaneously. Using the National Survey of Families and Households, we investigate how perceptions of housework fairness for men and women in heterosexu…
Links between premarital cohabitation and subsequent marital quality, stability, and divorce: A comparison of covenant versus standard marriages
Gender, Labor Allocations, and the Psychology of Entitlement within the Home
This study analyzes the effects of partners' absolute and relative labor allocations on women's and men's perceived fairness of the division of household chores within unions. Using data from the 1988 National Survey of Families and Households, the analyses indicate that (1) men's housework efforts are powerful determinants of women's and men's fairness perceptions, and (2) women's employment hours have no effect on men's fairness perceptions whi…
Hard Living, Perceived Entitlement to a Great Marriage, and Marital Dissolution
Using the two waves of the National Survey of Families and Households (NSFH), we examine the effects on marital dissolution of couple's gender attitudes, perceived unfairness, marital disagreements, and relationship alternatives, exploring whether these dimensions of marriage influence marital dissolution, net of serious forms of hardship commonly noted in divorce research. With event history methods, we find that husbands', but not wives', perce…
Family Status and Criticism of Gender Inequality at Home and at Work
The literature on gender attitudes indicates that acceptance of women's involvement in the labor force is greater than acceptance of changes in the domestic division of labor. We argue that this difference exists because challenges to inequality in the home are especially threatening to men's interests and that women's dependence on men plays a role in shaping interpretations of gender inequality. To test these claims, we explore the relationship…
Badgering or Bantering: Gender Differences in Experience of, and Reactions to, Sexual Harassment among U.S. High School Students
This study uses the American Association of University Women 1993 survey on sexual harassment in America's schools, a national sample of high school students, to examine gender differences in the behavioral, emotional, and educational consequences of sexual harassment. Previous research indicates that a high percentage of both boys and girls experience sexual harassment and that the negative consequences are greater for girls. The authors use a f…
Women's Power and the Gendered Division of Domestic Labor in the Third World
The study described in this article examines whether wives' relative resources and material conditions affect husbands' domestic labor within varying economic development contexts. The study tests: (1) whether wives' relative resources increase husbands' regularity of housework participation and (2) whether the effects of wives' relative resources on husbands' regularity of housework participation vary in quantity and effect at different levels o…

Material Resources, Family Structure Resources, and Husbands' Housework Participation: A Cross-National Comparison
This cross-national analysis examines whether wives' material resources and family structure resources affect husbands' housework. Logistic regressions analyze data from four Southeast and East Asian countries at varying levels of capitalist development as well as from one late industrialized country (the United States). Resources embodied in employment, education, reproductive decision making, and childbearing are found to have no consistent eff…

Traditional Values and Democratic Impulses: The Gender Division of Labor in Contemporary Spain
We examine the gender division of labor among married Spaniards (Family and the Use of Time Survey, 1993), testing hypotheses about secular, rational efficiency effects of employment, education, and political attitudes conflicting with wives' and husbands' gender traditional reactions to parenthood and Catholicism. The dependent variables include a summed inventory of six routine household maintenance tasks, daily hours spent in employment, house…
Similarities in women's and men's perceptions of the societal gender division of labor
Gender‐division‐of‐labor research has documented a paradox: Although labor is divided unequally between women and men in personal relationships, most married women and men perceive this situation as fair. This paradox makes sense in light of women's and men's interests in minimizing feelings of inequity in close relationships. However, if the referent is not their own personal lives, women and men may feel greater freedom to be critical of the ge…
