Assessing the Impact of Social Factors on Survival Among Infants Born with Transposition of the Great Arteries, Tetralogy of Fallot, and Diaphragmatic Hernia in Texas, 2011–2019
Beneath the Incision: Variation in Low-Risk Cesareans Among Asian and Pacific Islander Subgroups in the United States
Screaming, 'No! No!' It was Literally Like Being Raped: Connecting Sexual Assault Trauma and Coerced Obstetric Procedures
How does the victimization of women's bodies in medical interactions contribute to their experience of gendered violence? We answer this question by joining sexual assault and birth trauma literatures with the medical sociology conversation on the power of hospitals as organizations and the hierarchy of the doctor-patient relationship to analyze the interviews of 101 women who identify as having experienced a coerced, pressured, or forced labor o…
Cultural conceptions of Women's labor pain and labor pain management: A mixed-method analysis
Future consideration of the influence of dominant American cultural beliefs about labor pain - including misunderstanding of the nature of labor pain and racial bias in expectations of labor pain - on individuals, norms, and structures is expected to improve quality of patient care
Race, Insurance Status, and Nulliparous, Term, Singleton, Vertex Cesarean Indication: A Case Study of a New England Tertiary Hospital

The Effects of Organizational and Political Embeddedness on Financial Malfeasance in the Largest U.S. Corporations: Dependence, Incentives, and Opportunities
This article examines the causes of financial malfeasance in the largest U.S. corporations between 1995 and 2004. The findings support organizational-political embeddedness theory, which suggests that differential social structures create dependencies, incentives, and opportunities to engage in financial malfeasance. The historical analysis shows that neoliberal policies enacted between 1986 and 2000 resulted in organizational and political struc…
Branch Banking and Institutional Racism in the U.S. Banking Industry
Studies abound documenting racial disparity in mortgage lending, yet lenders insist that they do not use race in their decision-making process, but rather rely upon credit scores as an objective financial predictor of an applicant's ability to repay a loan. However, I suggest that because on average blacks and Latinos have lower credit scores than whites (Sheila D. Ards and Samuel L. Myers, Jr. 2001; Stephen Ross and John Yinger 2002; Federal Res…
Corporate Diversification Revisited: The Political-Legal Environment, the Multilayer-Subsidiary Form, and Mergers and Acquisitions
This article examines causes of product-line diversification in the largest 200 U.S. corporations between 1986 and 1996. The analysis shows that some corporations decreased their level of diversification. However, in contrast with previous studies, other corporations became more diversified. Change in the number of first-level subsidiaries and the value of mergers and acquisitions influenced corporate diversification. In contrast with the multidi…
Internal and External Sources of Organizational Change: Corporate Form and the Banking Industry
How do internal and external constraints impact the likelihood that organizations enact organizational change? Resource dependence theory argues that organizational change is a response to internal and external constraints. However, the interaction of these constraints remains theoretically and empirically underconsidered. Using longitudinal data from the U.S. banking industry, I examine this question from a resource dependence perspective and I …

Unionization Matters: An Analysis of Post-World War II Strikes
Recent macroeconomic analyses of post-World War II US strikes conclude that union density during a given year does not affect the occurrence of strike activity during that same year, a finding attributed to the institutionalization of collective bargaining after WWII. However, this argument does not take into account two processes that may render new bargaining units more radical than established bargaining units and, hence, more likely to use st…
Ego State Dominance and Occupational Role Selection
This study examines the relationship between dominant ego states and occupations. For a select number of occupations independently rated as closely associated with specific ego states, respondents employed full-time in these occupations are likely to be dominant in the specified ego state. There is some indication that the tie between occupations (anticipated, in this case) and ego states begins to develop before children enter high school
