The relationship between low social/emotional support and health care affordability among rural and urban residents
PURPOSE: Social/emotional support can help to buffer the health and financial impacts of health care costs. However, little research examines differences in social/emotional support as it relates to health care affordability, and even less examines these issues by rurality despite rural/urban differences in health and health care access. This study addresses these gaps by examining differences in social/emotional support and health care affordabi…
Barriers to health care among rural adults by disability status
PURPOSE: Access to health care supports both individual and population health. Ample research demonstrates access barriers faced by rural residents and people with disabilities; however, less research has examined access barriers for rural residents by disability status or explored differences across multiple types of access barriers. This brief report addresses this gap by examining 11 financial and nonfinancial barriers to accessing health care…
Housing Quality and Affordability Among Same- and Different-Sex Couple Households
Within American society, marginalization shapes access to many needed resources. As the U.S. housing crisis has shown, the need for affordable, stable, safe housing is paramount. Given the severity of the current housing crisis, we seek to understand housing insecurity, particularly among LGBTQ+ adults. In this brief report, we draw upon nationally representative data from the 2019-2022 American Community Survey to provide an up-to-date overview …
Rural/urban differences in receipt of governmental rental assistance
PURPOSE: Housing is essential to health. Governmental rental assistance is one way to increase access to affordable housing, but little is known about how it varies by rural/urban location. This paper seeks to address that gap by examining rural/urban and within-rural differences in receipt of rental assistance, with particular attention differences by health and disability. METHODS: We used data from the 2021 National Health Interview Survey (n …
Misery loves company? Linkages between actual vs. Desired couple work arrangements and women’s mental health
Match or mismatch between the demands of work, home, and the broader community shape individuals’ well-being, leading to some recognition of mismatch as a public health issue. Using a life-course framework, I draw on farm families as an illustrative case to explore how couple work arrangements influence individual well-being. Farm couples face many demands within a family-based business, including various work and family roles in a changing farmi…
Are Biological Science Knowledge, Interests, and Science Identity Framed by Religious and Political Perspectives in the United States
Science trust and views of science differ by political and religious orientations. In this study we examine whether political and religious perspectives are also associated with biological science knowledge, science interest, and general science identity. Results show that conservative Protestants have lower biological science knowledge than other religious groups on several specific topics. Party affiliation is associated with vaccine knowledge …
Women's Work? The Relationship between Farmwork and Gender Self-Perception
Women have long been involved in agricultural production, yet farming and ranching have been associated with masculinity and men. In recent years women have become more involved and more likely to take active and equal roles on farms and ranches and thus increasingly are doing tasks that have been associated with masculinity. Prior work indicates that women are perceived by others as more masculine when they do these tasks, but less work has focu…
Predictors of Family Support and Well-Being Among Black and Latina/o Sexual Minorities
Sexual minorities are receiving an increasing amount of attention within sociological research on families. However, much of the existing work on these families has been limited to largely White, middle-class, and highly educated individuals. Using national data from the Social Justice Sexuality Project, this study fills a much-needed gap by exploring predictors of family support and the relationship between family support and well-being among Bl…
