42. Examining Civic Outcomes between 2- and 4-Year Colleges: A Case Study of Two Postsecondary Institutions

Author

Punksungka, Wonmai, Yamashita, Takashi, and Eckert, J. Kevin

Abstract

While postsecondary education appears to promote civic mindedness and engagement, relatively little is known about the association between civic outcomes and types of postsecondary education, as well as across different academic programs. Using a convenience sample from two postsecondary education institutions in the Mid-Atlantic U.S., this research examines the differences in civic mindedness and civic engagement between 2-year community college and 4-year university students, as well as students in different majors. Despite no significant difference between 2- and 4-year institutions, social science majors have greater civic outcomes in the specific areas compared to other majors.

43. An Ethnographic Study of Stigma and Ageism in Residential Care or Assisted Living

Author

Dobbs, Debra, Eckert, J. Kevin, Rubinstein, Bob, Keimig, Lynn, Clark, Leanne, Frankowski, Ann Christine, and Zimmerman, Sheryl

Abstract

Purpose: This study explored aspects of stigmatization for older adults who live in residential care or assisted living (RC-AL) communities and what these settings have done to address stigma. Design and Methods: We used ethnography and other qualitative data-gathering and analytic techniques to gather data from 309 participants (residents, family and staff) from six RC-AL settings in Maryland. We entered the transcript data into Atlas.ti 5.0. We analyzed the data by using grounded theory techniques for emergent themes. Results: Four themes emerged that relate to stigma in RC-AL: (a) ageism in long-term care; (b) stigma as related to disease and illness; (c) sociocultural aspects of stigma; and (d) RC-AL as a stigmatizing setting. Some strategies used in RC-AL settings to combat stigma include family member advocacy on behalf of stigmatized residents, assertion of resident autonomy, and administrator awareness of potential stigmatization. Implications: Findings suggest that changes could be made to the structure as well as the process of care delivery to minimize the occurrence of stigma in RC-AL settings. Structural changes include an examination of how best, given the resident case mix, to accommodate care for persons with dementia (e.g., separate units or integrated care); processes of care include staff recognition of resident preferences and strengths, rather than their limitations.

44. An Empirical Typology of Residential Care/Assisted Living Based on a Four-State Study

Author

Park, Nan Sook, Zimmerman, Sheryl, Sloane, Philip D., Gruber-Baldini, Ann L., and Eckert, J. Kevin

Abstract

Purpose: Residential care/assisted living describes diverse facilities providing non-nursing home care to a heterogeneous group of primarily elderly residents. This article derives typologies of assisted living based on theoretically and practically grounded evidence. Design and Methods: We obtained data from the Collaborative Studies of Long-Term Care, which examined 193 assisted living facilities in four states: Florida, Maryland, New Jersey, and North Carolina. By using mixture modeling, we derived typologies in five different ways, based on: structure; process; resident case-mix; structure and process; and structure, process, and resident case-mix. Results: Although configurations of typologies varied as a function of criterion variables used, common themes emerged from different cluster solutions. A typology based on resident case-mix yielded a five-cluster solution, whereas a typology based on structure, process, and resident case-mix resulted in six distinct clusters. Medicaid case-mix/psychiatric illness and high resident impairment were two clusters identified by both strategies. Implications: Because of the wide variation in structure, residents, and services within assisted living facilities, typologies such as those described here may be useful in clinical practice, research, and policy. To the extent that public payment defines its own cluster, the potential for inequities in care merits careful attention. (Contains 4 tables.)
