Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

281
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.

Impact of Social Context on Individuals01:21

Impact of Social Context on Individuals

280
Social psychology examines how the real or imagined presence of others influences individuals' thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. A key concept in this field is the role of social context in shaping behavior. The same individual may act differently depending on the social setting, due to the varying expectations and norms associated with each environment. This context-dependent behavior illustrates the influence of social roles, which prescribe appropriate conduct in specific situations.Social...

Cross-Sectional Research01:50

Cross-Sectional Research

12.4K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Longitudinal Research

13.1K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Observational Studies

10.7K
Observational studies are a type of analytical study where researchers observe events without any interventions. In other words, the researcher does not influence the response variable or the experiment's outcome.
There are three types of observational studies – Prospective, retrospective, and cross-sectional.
Prospective Study
Prospective studies, also known as longitudinal or cohort studies, are carried out by collecting future data from groups sharing similar characteristics. One...

Robbers Cave04:49

Robbers Cave

14.8K
During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

Area of Science:

  • Urban Planning
  • Sociology
  • Community Development

Background:

  • Public housing redevelopment often leads to resident displacement and gentrification, negatively affecting community belonging.
  • Existing research on the link between redevelopment and social cohesion is limited.
  • Mitigation strategies in recent redevelopments aim to reduce adverse social impacts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine community social cohesion during a large-scale public housing and neighborhood redevelopment in Southern California.
  • To explore stakeholder perceptions and resident experiences of social cohesion in redeveloped areas.
  • To assess the effectiveness of redevelopment strategies in fostering social cohesion.

Main Methods:

  • Mixed-methods approach combining qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys.
  • Semi-structured interviews with 21 community stakeholders (residents, community leaders, developers).
  • Administration of the Social Cohesion scale to 647 residents in redeveloped and non-redeveloped public housing complexes.

Main Results:

  • Stakeholders expressed concerns about potential disruption to the community's social fabric.
  • Emphasis was placed on the importance of integration efforts for new and existing residents.
  • Residents in the redeveloped public housing complex reported significantly higher social cohesion compared to those in non-redeveloped complexes.

Conclusions:

  • Public housing redevelopment can be associated with increased social cohesion when deliberate integration strategies are employed.
  • Creating inclusive physical spaces and facilitating social interaction are crucial for fostering a sense of belonging.
  • Findings inform future public housing redevelopment strategies and community integration initiatives.
