Effects of Childhood Exposure to Gender-Based Violence on Polyvictimization of GBV in the Dominican Republic
We examined the effects of childhood exposure to gender-based violence (GBV) on the risk of GBV polyvictimization among women in the Dominican Republic. Logistic regression analyses were used to estimate risks of three types of GBV (emotional, physical, and sexual), and polyvictimization, experiencing two or more GBV types. GBV in adulthood is associated with forced sex before age 15, entry into sexual intimacy in early adolescence, and witnessin…
Examining U.S. pet ownership using the General Social Survey
Pets are an important aspect of many families and households, but how many Americans have them? The purpose of this study is to compare point estimates of pet ownership in the U.S. from the General Social Survey (GSS) to estimates from other surveys, and to report demographic and social correlates to pet ownership. Wide discrepancies in estimates of U.S. pet ownership have been previously reported, relying on private industry surveys that do not …
The Dynamics of Toothache Pain and Dental Services Utilization
In this diverse sample of adults, toothache pain occurs frequently and is quite variable overtime. Toothache occurs in conjunction with various forms of self-reported oral disease (e.g., abscess, cavities) or tissue damage (e.g., loose tooth, broken tooth, bleeding gums). Subjects who experience toothache are slightly more likely than others to utilize dental services in the time period proximate to the toothache pain
Predictors of Chewing Difficulty Onset Among Dentate Adults
Self-reported oral disease and tissue damage and toothache pain were strong predictors of decline in chewing ability. Additionally, women were identified as a high-risk group for incident chewing difficulty. Future research should elaborate further the pathways through which these factors affect oral function
Race and Ethnic Variation in the Disablement Process
The authors discuss the practical implications for health care delivery to non-White elders and the theoretical implications for understanding the complexities of disablement
Patterns of Change in Self-Reported Oral Health Among Dentate Adults
BACKGROUND: Although self-assessments of oral health have become useful tools in dental research, the use of self-reports to study changes in oral health over time has been limited. The aim of this investigation was to describe how oral disease and tissue damage, pain, functional limitation, disadvantage, and self-rated oral health change over time. METHODS: The Florida Dental Care Study (FDCS) (n = 873) is a longitudinal study of oral health amo…
Race Differences in Filial Responsibility Expectations among Older Parents
Gary R. Lee Bowling Green State University Chuck W. Peek University of Florida* Raymond T. Coward University of New Hampshire** This study examines race differences in extent to which older parents believe that parents are entitled to support from their children. Bivariate analyses show that Blacks have higher filial responsibility expectations than do Whites, and difference is only marginally attenuated by controls for sociodemographic and other…
Race Differences in the Health of Elders who Live Alone
This investigation was initiated to determine whether older African Americans who live alone are in poorer health than their White counterparts who live under the same circumstances. Data on 5 measures of health were collected in telephone interviews with a stratified random sample of community-dwelling elders (n = 1,189). Analysis of weighted data indicate that there were fewer differences in health by race among older persons who lived alone co…
The Effect of Economic Restructuring on Puerto Rican Women's Labor Force Participation in the Formal Sector
The joint effort by the U.S. government and the political elite of Puerto Rico to industrialize the island created increased demand for female labor and a decline in the number of jobs traditionally held by men. The authors examine whether women's labor force participation in the formal sector responds to improving opportunities for women, declining opportunities for men, or the household's changing opportunity structures. Specifically, they exam…
