LIBRARY ASSIGNMENT COVER PAGE

A. Students Name:

Zhuo Chen

B. Name of Topic:

How can we help the homeless get out of the shelter after they found a job.

C. Brief Description: Similar to your recent reflection relating to your paper topic, but perhaps briefer, explain what event you encountered (or observation that you made) that made you decide on this paper topic. Then, in a few sentences, explain the scope of the general topic that you will write about.

After the homeless found a job, they still have lots of problem that let they can not move out of shelter quickly. Such as the rant, the way they transport they to job. It is a system problem.

D. Journal Articles (Research Reports): Each of the three articles must come from a journal of a different social science discipline (as clearly evident by the name of the journal).

1. Journal Article (Research Report 1):

Psychopathology on the streets: Psychological assessment of the homeless.

a. State Social Science: psychology

b. Provide Reference: Reported rates of mental illness and substance abuse in homeless populations vary widely and are frequently based on clinical impressions. Using structured interviews and objective measures of pathology, including the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-168 (MMPI-168) and specified criterion of disorder, we surveyed demographics, psychopathology, and substance abuse in a homeless population.

2. Journal Article (Research Report 2):

“ The New Homelessness Revisited”

a. State Social Science: Sociology

b. Provide Reference: The new homelessness has drawn sustained attention from scholars over the past three decades. Definitional inconsistencies and data limi- tations rendered early work during this period largely speculative in na- ture. Thanks to conceptual, theoretical, and methodological progress, however, the research literature now provides a fuller understanding of homelessness. Contributions by sociologists and other social scientists since the mid-1990s differentiate among types of homelessness, provide credible demographic estimates, and show how being homeless affects a person’s life chances and coping strategies. Agreement also exists about the main macro- and micro-level causes of homelessness. Active lines of inquiry examine public, media, and governmental responses to the problem as well as homeless people’s efforts to mobilize on their own behalf. Despite the obstacles faced when studying a stigmatized popula- tion marked by high turnover and weak anchors to place, recent inves- tigations have significantly influenced homelessness policy. A greater emphasis on prevention should further strengthen the research-policy nexus.

3. Journal Article (Research Report 3):

“ A right to inclusion? Homelessness, human right and social exclusion”

a. State Social Science: Human right

Provide Reference: Homeless people are often considered the quintessential example of a group ‘excluded’ from contemporary western societies (Mullins, Western and Broadbent 2001; Paugam 1999; Pleace 1998; Commission on the European Communities 1992, 32). It has been noted, however, that not all homeless people suffer from social exclusion (Tosi 1999). Those who do are characterised by an absence of social ties and a lifestyle of ‘lack’: lack of work, money, family, home, participation and so on (Soulet 1999).
