Racial microaggressions and black social work students: a call to social work educators for proactive models informed by social justice

ABSTRACT

With efforts to create and sustain racial diversity and inclusive practices at institutions of higher education, a corollary emphasis on proactive implementations to support students of color in these environments is essential. Informed by a commitment to social justice, there are rich opportunities for social work to take leadership in strategizing new ways of approaching and prioritizing the wellness and success of students of color. This paper serves to explore the impact of racism specific to Black students by applying the theoretical lens of Racial Battle Fatigue (RBF) to challenge social work education in confronting racialized experiences within their programs. A modified, context-specific framework is proposed that (1) defines microaggressions in social work education programs, 2) prompts critically informed dialogue to enhance how social work as a profession understands the prevalence and role of microaggressions in social work educational contexts, and (3) explores considerations for the unique needs and challenges of Black social work students in an effort to inform strategies to most effectively recruit, retain, support and empower.

Insights for Measuring Social Value: Classification of Measures Related to the Capabilities Approach

The measurement of performance and the evaluation of social change efforts are vital yet challenging issues for practitioners and researchers in the social sector. Although tools exist to measure social value, they tend to focus on converting non-monetary costs and benefits into monetary terms to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness of operations. The capabilities approach provides a value-based alternative that could potentially enable a broader assessment of a project’s impact; this approach encapsulates societal-level factors, beneficiary perspectives, and a more holistic view of a beneficiary’s life. Ultimately, our goal is to raise the following question in the social sector field: what might a capabilities approach to social value measurement that is suitable for practical application by social sector organizations look like? The purpose of this article is to introduce the theoretical framework and to present what some of the measures and instruments might look like, at least in part, based on applications in other contexts.     

Linearly admissible estimators of mean vector with respect to balanced loss function in multivariate statistics

The authors discuss the bias of the estimate of the variance of the overall effect synthesized from individual studies by using the variance weighted method. This bias is proven to be negative. Furthermore, the conditions, the likelihood of underestimation and the bias from this conventional estimate are studied based on the assumption that the estimates of the effect are subject to normal distribution with common mean. The likelihood of underestimation is very high (e.g. it is greater than 85% when the sample sizes in two combined studies are less than 120). The alternative less biased estimates for the cases with and without the homogeneity of the variances are given in order to adjust for the sample size and the variation of the population variance. In addition, the sample size weight method is suggested if the consistence of the sample variances is violated Finally, a real example is presented to show the difference by using the above three estimate methods.     

“常理、常识、常情”的刑法哲学蕴涵

运用刑法本体论、认识论和价值论三位一体的立体思维模式对陈忠林教授提出的以"常理、常识、常情"为灵魂的法治观进行了解读,并得出粗浅的结论:它是科学建构中国刑事法律制度的一条重要思想路径,值得理论界和实务界深入探讨。     

酒后驾车行为犯罪化论

我国对于酒后驾车不仅认定标准过于宽松,而且处罚标准也过于宽纵.在酒后驾车的严重现实危害面前,确有必要将本属于行政处罚范围的酒后驾车行为有选择性地予以犯罪化,其刑事政策上的根据在于治理酒后驾车的国际趋势和构建和谐社会的本土背景,其刑法法理上的根据在于风险社会理论和法律父爱主义.建议根据我国刑法总则的有关规定,将酒后驾车中的醉酒驾车行为以及5年之内因为饮酒驾车被行政处罚两次以上又饮酒驾车的行为规定为酒后驾车罪,并设置两年以下的自由刑和相关资格刑.     

Nonprofit competition in the grants marketplace

In this study, we test the impact of nonprofit financial health and financial efficiency ratios on the grant amount awarded by foundations using the Georgia grants marketplace as a case. Using hierarchical linear modeling analysis, we can understand the effects of these ratios both within and across foundation grant portfolios. We found statistically significant evidence that grantees with higher debt ratios and higher fundraising ratios receive lower grant amounts. We did not find statistically significant impacts for administrative ratios, revenue diversification, and surplus margin.

扈伦四部之间关系论略

哈达、叶赫、辉发、乌拉为明代后期海西女真著名的部落,又被称为扈伦四部。它们形成于16世纪中期左右,大致分布于辽河上游和松花江之间。在其形成和发展过程中,四部之间形成了既依赖又冲突、既联合又斗争的关系。这种关系在削弱了四部力量的同时,也为建州女真的崛起创造了条件,并最终打破了明朝在东北推行的＂藉女直制北虏＂的基本国策。
