Book Family Decision Making

Download or read book Family Decision Making written by John Scanzoni and published by SAGE Publications, Incorporated. This book was released on 1980-12 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors present a new model of the process of family decision-making that takes into account the importance of sex roles. They use a series of couples as examples that illustrate the model at various stages of the life cycle. They also consider how decision-making is changing. A major contribution to the study of sexual politics and bargaining within relationships. 'The authors are to be commended for their attempt to bring order to the complexities of family decisioning, and their work should stimulate further research in the area. Their focussing upon couples and families rather than individuals and their extension of the concept of "family" to nontraditional arrangements also are commendable.' -- Journal of Marriage

Book A Process Model of Family Consumer Decisions

Download or read book A Process Model of Family Consumer Decisions written by Sue L. T. McGregor and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of family decision making centers on consumer behavior (Melson, 1980). However, the researchers in the disciplines of marketing and family sociology, who traditionally studied consumer decision making and family decision making, respectively, have not, to date, awarded the family consumer decision making process the attention it would seem to warrant. Thus, the objective of this research was to model the process that a family as a group goes through, while making a consumer decision. Both the intricacies of the variation in interaction that occurs between family members at different stages of the consumer decision and the effect of the immediate environment on these interactions were given special attention. In summary, the domain of the model is restricted to the study of the family as a multiperson buying unit as it goes through the seven stages of a high involvement, consumer decision. The model is comprised of three major components and is pictorially represented in a nested cup scheme so as to illustrate the systems approach to conceptualizing the study of the family. The outer circle represents the external environment and is comprised of several sets of variables. Within this model, the external environment is viewed as affecting the decision process and family member involvement, with recognition that this latter influence is filtered through the internal environment (family system). The second circle depicts the family as a system and is referred to as the internal environment. It contains numerous sets of variables, several of which contain sub-concepts as well. These internal variables are viewed as individually or collectively having direct influence on the core of the model. The inner core of the model is divided, with the left side depicting the seven stages of the decision process while the right side illustrates family member involvement at each stage. The stages of the decision process are a combination of the decision process component of the EKB model (Engel and Blackwell, 1982) and the concept of the problem solving loop from the Kieren, Vaines and Badir (1982) model. The core of the model is seen to be affected by the external and internal environments as well as by other variables within the core. Definitions of the variables (approximately 120) are grouped according to the three components of the model. Propositions (approximately 250) are ordered into ten sets which in turn are organized according to external, family and process/product categories. A summary matrix supplements the extensive listing of propositions and provides a means of viewing all of the propositions simultaneously. An expert review panel was established and a response sheet was developed, both for the purpose of reviewing and evaluating the model. Panel responses were discussed and the panel's recommendations were either incorporated into the current version of the model in Chapter II or are included in the final chapter as recommendations for future revisions and refinements of the model.

Book Family Economics and Public Policy  1800s   Present

Download or read book Family Economics and Public Policy 1800s Present written by Megan McDonald Way and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2019-09-13 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores family economic decision-making in the United States from the nineteenth century through present day, specifically looking at the relationship between family resource allocation decisions and government policy. It examines how families have responded to incentives and constraints established by diverse federal and state policies and laws, including the regulation of marriage and of female labor force participation, child labor and education policies—including segregation—social welfare programs, and more. The goal of this book is to present family economic decisions throughout US history in a way that contextualizes where the US economy and the families that drive it have been. It goes on to discuss the role public policies have played in that journey, where we need to go from here, and how public policies can help us get there. At a time when American families are more complex than ever before, this volume will educate readers on the often unrecognized role that government policies have on our family lives, and the uncelebrated role that family economic decision-making has on the future of the US economy.

Book The Reinvention of Distinction

Download or read book The Reinvention of Distinction written by Van Nguyen-Marshall and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-17 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pioneering collection brings together an international group of scholars to explore the Vietnamese middle class. From the leisure pursuits of the colonial middle class to the impact of the new urban rich on landscape of the countryside, this interdisciplinary volume explores the ways in which middle classness has been practiced in a wide range of contexts throughout the 20th century and into the 21st. In addition to offering insights into how middle classness was and is constituted and negotiated, this collection illuminates the cultural and social conditions of two distinctive periods in Vietnamese history. Three historical chapters consider how middle class status was experienced and displayed under French colonialism and in 1960s republican. These chapters offer examinations of middle classness through recreation, consumption, and associational life. Six contemporary studies examine the modes of experimentation and practice within middle class urban Vietnam. Still a sensitive topic politically, the contemporary middle class, nascent but increasingly powerful, is exerting a strong impact on the shape of contemporary society and culture, as well as on urban and rural landscapes. This volume offers a series of studies which critically interrogate the practices of those who engage in or aspire to urban middle-class lifestyles in Vietnam both in the past and in the present.

Book Emotionally Intelligent Parenting

Download or read book Emotionally Intelligent Parenting written by Maurice J. Elias Ph.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2011-05-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you, as a parent, ever found yourself treating your children in a way you would never tolerate from someone else? The authors of Emotionally Intelligent Parenting call for a new Golden Rule: Do unto your children as you would have other people do unto your children. And most important, they show us how to live by it. Based upon extensive research, firsthand experience, and case studies, Emotionally Intelligent Parenting breaks the mold of traditional parenting books by taking into account the strong role of emotions -- those of parents and children -- in psychological development. With this book, parents will learn how to communicate with children on a deeper, more gratifying level and how to help them successfully navigate the intricacies of relating to others. The authors take the five basic principles of Daniel Goleman's best-seller, Emotional Intelligence, and explain how they can be applied to successful parenting. To this end, the book offers suggestions, stories, dialogues, activities, and a special section of Sound EQ Parenting Bites to help parents use their emotions in the most constructive ways, focusing on such everyday issues as sibling rivalry, fights with friends, school situations, homework, and peer pressure. In the authors' extensive experience, children respond quickly to these strategies, their self-confidence is strengthened, their curiosity is piqued, and they learn to assert their independence while developing their ability to make responsible choices.
