6. Examining the Relationship Between School Climate and Peer Victimization Among Students in Military-Connected Public Schools
Approximately 1.4 million school-age youth have one or more parents who are on active duty in the military or in the National Guard or Reserve. A large proportion of military-connected youth attends public schools in civilian communities. However, about 86000 military-connected youth attend schools which are operated by the Department of Defence Education Activity. The aim of this study is to find if military-connected youth (youth with parents/siblings serving in the military) have higher rates of being victimized in school than the youth who do not have parentage with the military background. A survey of 7th, 9th and 11th-grade students (total 14,493) enrolled in six different military-connected school districts was conducted to explore victimization rates, the role of school climate, deployment, as well as school transitions in the victimization of students with parents of military background. The study is built upon the notions that a positive school climate is associated with lower victimization in secondary schools. The positive school climate is assumed to be the climate where the student feels a greater level of connectedness, meaningful participation in several group activities, close bonding and caring relationships developed between peer students and the teachers and an elevated expectation by parents of their wards good performance in the school. The study found that there was a significant correlation between the number of transitions a ward faces while their parents face transfer and their victimization and physical violence. The study suggests future researches to focus on other regions in the US which may be far from military installations.
7. Demographic Trends, Life Course, And Family Cycle – The Canadian Example
Low mortality, declining fertility not only imply that more people are living longer and more elderly persons are there in the population, but it also indicates that a new framework is required for the organization of an individual life course and a new framework for the community as well as family relationships and interdependence. Canada is an excellent example of the above scenario where the population of the country, in general, is an aging one. The objective of the research work is to identify the causes of this rapid shift in age dynamics in the population of Canada. One of the main reasons attributed to this phenomenon is due to the birth of the concept of smaller families and the employment of women in the organized labor market with declining fertility. Furthermore, increased longevity has been followed by the reduced burden of parenting, child dependency, and family size and by increased pre-childbearing period and long durations of emptiness among the long-time couples. The research expects the future works to have more systematic attention on the impact of social organizational settings, and arrangements in which life course and family cycle are played out.
8. Conflicts Law and Public Policy in Egyptian Family Law: Islamic Law Through the Backdoor
The aim of this research study is to find instances where the Egyptian Family Laws conflict with the Uniform Civil code of the nation. The researcher also wishes to address the fact that this concept of Egyptian public policy also introduces Islamic conflict laws which render it very differently from the real meaning of public policy in the majority of civil law countries in both substance and procedure. The study is conducted in four stages: firstly, the study provides a short outline of Egyptian conflicts law and its European sources. This is followed by a comprehensive introduction to the Egyptian concept of public policy. This study is further combined with a survey of all Egyptian case law on public policy lasting as late as 1949. The legal literature does not mention whether religion is a more important inclusive factor than nationality in situations where personal status is at stake. Also, it is often misled that Islamic public policy is not just a safety valve which prevents any undesired troubles from foreign laws which may affect the national order in one or the other form, but it instead is a valve through the Islamic conflicts law is introduced. This perplexing attitude towards the Islamic public policy as practiced in its form by the courts do not fit into the European legal doctrine as the final conclusion by the researcher. In this particular analysis, the researcher does not provide any future direction for the next research which may be performed in continuation of this work.
9. Relationships Between Social Support Cognition Types And Family Resource Management Of Chinese Migrant Workers
The following study was conducted to analyze the relationship between social support cognition types and family resource management. The sample space considered for the following study was a group of 501 migrant workers in Suzhou, China. Migrant workers in China are neither traditional nor native residents. Instead, they are a marginalized group of people residing between rural and urban areas. They contributions towards the development of China is of so much importance. However, the household registration system claims that there is a very shard differentiation between migrant workers and urban residents. The results of the conducted study had three important results to reveal. First, it was reported that the migrant workers with different social support cognition types reported a very tangible difference in their family resource management. Second, it was reported that migrant workers with different demographic variables reported a quite foreseeable difference in their social support cognition types. And thirdly, significant family resource management was predicted from a few demographic variables and social support cognition Type II. Since in the conducted study the sample was not structured according to the percentage of the population for different categories, the researcher suggests the future researchers use different samples of migrant workers taking into account so many more complex characteristic traits.
10. Experiential Learning in Family Life Education Methodology: Low, Medium, and High Dosage Projects
The following study is conducted to evaluate an experiential learning approach to Family Life Education Methodology (FLEM). FLEM has been an essential part of the family science collegiate curriculum, but due to its sheer vastness in the number of topics, the subject matter of FLEM is not immediately engaging and interesting to the students. Due to this fact, it is consistently being reported that teaching these courses is a very difficult task. To conduct this study, a midsize university was selected and four different FLEM classes were conducted. Students were given a project which varied in their course intensiveness, mainly: low, medium and high dosage. These projects were given throughout each course which was evaluated after each project for qualitative analysis. Students had pointed out multiple benefits for each project. Some students identified low dosage project with learning what FLEM is and building on self-passion, whereas the students associated the medium dosage project with tangible and self-learning, whereas, the students associated the high dosage project with outside learning and a will to make a difference in the community. The researcher highlights that the study conducted has methodological limitations since the study was based on Kolb’s experiential learning cycle which even to date receives a lot of backlashes based on its founding principles and applications. Secondly, the researcher also highlights that the methodologies adopted for this study could have been improved. However, even with the limited literature on teaching FLEM, the conducted study still delves down to the proper depth to understand and analyze the impact and effectiveness of experiential learning approach to FLEM.
