Is Inequality Making Us Sick?

Is Inequality Making Us Sick?

Despite being one of the wealthiest countries in the world, the United States ranked 33rd in the world in life expectancy and 56th in infant mortality in 2014 (World Factbook 2014). It is easy to equate health with behavior. In other words, we tend to think that if you eat right, exercise, and don’t smoke you will be healthy. Sociologists, on the other hand, investigate how the experience of inequality can have a negative impact on an individual’s health.

For this discussion, begin by reviewing the following resources:

Minority Health – https://fod.infobase.com/OnDemandEmbed.aspx?token=40706&wID=100753&plt=FOD&loid=0&w=640&h=480&fWidth=660&fHeight=530 

Inequality Hurts:The Unhealthy Side Effects of Economic Disparity

Study: Homophobia Harms Health

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/homophobia-impact-_n_4889287

Using the resources as evidence to back up your ideas, address the following:

  •  How does social class correlate with health outcomes? In other words, explain how access to healthcare, free time to engage in exercise, and exposure to chronic stressors (in addition to the time and resources available to manage them), vary by social class— and in turn, how that impacts one’s health.
  •  What is a food desert? Why does it occur? How does the phenomenon of food deserts negatively impact the health of certain groups of people?
  • Consider the social identities of race and sexuality. In each of those identities, there are certain groups that tend to experience discrimination and inequalities. Based on the resources you reviewed, explain how the actual experience of discrimination and inequality can negatively impact one’s physical (not just emotional) health? In other words, what is the connection between the experience of inequality and discrimination and negative health outcomes?

There are many additional resources listed under Recommended Resources that can also help you address these questions.

Valuing Motherhood Across Cultures

Valuing Motherhood Across Cultures

Identities such as race, gender, and age are ascribed statuses; that is they are statuses that are assigned at birth and are involuntarily assumed throughout one’s life.  On the other hand, many of the identities we hold are based on achieved statuses—positions that we earn and/or choose.  One such identity is motherhood. From a sociological perspective, the identity of motherhood is more complex than once thought. The societal value and status of motherhood has varied greatly over time and, even today, varies across countries.

For this discussion, you will examine how the achieved identity of motherhood is valued in the United States and abroad. To begin, review this Washington Post article (Links to an external site.)  https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/she-the-people/wp/2014/06/23/global-view-how-u-s-policies-to-help-working-families-rank-in-the-world/ that provides statistics on how the United States compares to other countries in terms of family-friendly policies, as well as this BBC article (Links to an external site.) https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-22751415 that looks at one way the government in Finland welcomes new babies into society.

Next, using these resources as evidence to back up your ideas, address the following:

  • Describe how the United States compares to other countries on at least three different family-friendly policies.
  • What message does the Finnish ‘baby box’ send about the value of motherhood in that society?  How does this compare to the cultural messages about the value of motherhood in the U.S.?
  • In what way do family-friendly government policies reinforce these cultural messages?

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or scholarly resources, and properly cite any references both in text (Links to an external site.) and in a references list (Links to an external site.) at the end of the post.

Introduction to Research Proposals

Assignment:

Assignment: Introduction to Research Proposals

Just because you thought of an interesting research question and have a desire to conduct research does not mean that your research will automatically be supported by faculty or funded by an organization. In order to gain stakeholder approval, you must submit a research proposal. Much like an outline of a paper or a treatment of a movie script, the research proposal contains several parts that begin with a research question and end with a literature review. For this Assignment, you compile a research proposal that includes a research problem, research question, and a literature review.

For this Assignment, choose between the case studies entitled “Social Work Research: Couple Counseling” and “Social Work Research: Using Multiple Assessments.” Consider how you might select among the issues presented to formulate a research proposal.

Be sure to consult the outline in Chapter 14 the Yegidis et al. text for content suggestions for the sections of a research proposal. As you review existing research studies, notice how the authors identify a problem, focus the research question, and summarize relevant literature. These can provide you with a model for your research proposal.

         Submit a 5- to 6-page research proposal stating both a research problem and a broad research question (may be either qualitative or quantitative). Use 6–10 of the most relevant literature resources to support the need for the study, define concepts, and define variables relevant to the question. Include a literature review explaining what previous research has found in relation to your problem and question. The literature review should also include a description of methods used by previous researchers. Finally, be sure to explain how your proposed study addresses a gap in existing knowledge.

Liberty Challenged in Nineteenth Century America Thesis and Outline

Assignment 2.1: Liberty Challenged in Nineteenth Century America Thesis and Outline
Due Week 7 and worth 50 points

America became a free independent nation. With the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1783, the former mother country, England, recognized that its children, the colonies, were now on their own. A constitutional republic was birthed, and thus the challenges began. Slavery, the “Peculiar Institution,” was a monumental issue facing the country. Would it die or would it survive and possibly take a nation divided with it? This sectionalism followed Americans up into the Civil War. Dissect this crisis by addressing parts I and II below.

For the next part of this assignment, you will create an outline of the main points you want to address in this paper. This will serve as the basis for your Assignment 2.2 Final Draft. (Note: Please consult the Virtual Writing Center (VWC) for tips on how to construct a proper thesis. Visit the “Developing Your Content” section.)

Part 1:

  1. Write a thesis statement that is one to two (1-2) sentences long in which you:
    1. State your thesis on the significance of this slavery issue, as exemplified in your research. Justify your response.

For the first part of this assignment, you will create a thesis statement. A thesis statement is usually a single sentence somewhere in your first paragraph that presents your main idea to the reader. The body of the essay organizes the material you gather and present in support of your main idea. Keep in mind that a thesis is an interpretation of a question or subject, not the subject itself. (Note: Please consult the Virtual Writing Center (VWC) for this assignment.)

Part 2:
For the next part of this assignment, you will create an outline of the main points you want to address in this paper. This will serve as the basis for your Assignment 2.2 Final Draft. (Note: Please consult the Virtual Writing Center (VWC) for this assignment.)

  1. Describe two (2) outcomes of the 3/5ths Compromise, Missouri Compromise of 1820, Compromise of 1850, Kansas-Nebraska Act, and the Dred Scott Decision. Note: Be sure to provide two (2) outcomes for each legislation.
  2. Suggest three (3) reasons why slavery was and is incompatible with our political and economic system.
  3. List three to five (3-5) driving forces that led to the Civil War.
  4. Use at least three (3) academic references besides or in addition to the textbook. Note: Wikipedia and other similar websites do not qualify as academic resources.

Construct the case study by responding to the following prompts:

  • Explain how Senator Joseph McCarthy defined communist nations within the speech. What specific threats did these nations pose?
  • Assess if Senator Joseph McCarthy charges were accurate.
