Protective peer effect: marginal effects of long-term youth poverty according to frequency of interaction with friendship clique (regression model 3)
Source publication
Driven by two theoretical models of the resiliency framework, this paper examines the compensatory and protective role of interacting with peers in late adolescence in inhibiting the intergenerational transmission of poverty into young adulthood. We suggest different compensatory and protective effects of three peer contexts, referring to specific...

... Wald chi-squared statistic proves that the inclusion of the interaction between levels of poverty experience and friendship clique Figure 2. Mean interaction frequency related to poverty status in adulthood interaction results in a statistically significant improvement in the fit of the model (v 2 (2) ¼ 8.57; P ¼ 0.014). Accordingly, Figure 3 shows that group-based peer interactions buffer the effect of long-term youth poverty and prevent any transmission in the case of weekly occurrences. Hence, within the unconditional models 1-3, we find support of Hypothesis 1 that group-based peer interactions help to protect against the intergenerational transmission of poverty. ...

Few studies have examined developmentally relevant sources of resilience, such as peer social support, among young sexual minority men (SMM) of color experiencing discrimination and mental health distress. To address this gap in the literature, we examined the role of peer social support in the association between discrimination and mental health d...

... Additionally, the financial support from children indicator shows a general downward trend. With the acquisition of social security and the gradual improvement of the national pension system, elderly people with retirement and pension income sources will rely less on their children's financial subsidies (Miller et al., 2021;Marion and Petra, 2022). In the material life dimension, the five indicators basically show a downward trend, indicating that the living conditions of the elderly, such as hygiene and diet, are gradually improving. ...
Based on CLHLS data, this paper uses the A-F method to measure multidimensional poverty among the elderly in China. In analyzing the dimensions of elderly poverty, the study emphasizes the inter-generational effects of education and economic support on poverty alleviation among the elderly. Empirical studies show that the poverty incidence rate of most indicators is decreasing, but the incidence rate of elderly psychological health poverty shows a slight rise. Inter-generational support alleviates poverty for the elderly who are in relatively higher levels of multidimensional poverty, but exacerbates the incidence of poverty in vulnerable elderly populations. Therefore, as China continues to age, attention should be given to the psychological well-being of the relatively impoverished elderly, establishing reasonable income supplement mechanisms for them, and implementing targeted social security policies.
This article introduces a new conceptual model for examining classism among adolescents and families. Classism refers to the discrimination that individuals experience because of their social class. For adolescents, social class refers to their family's social class and includes income, education, occupation, and position in society. Despite extensive research that has shown how social class is associated with adolescent development, there remains a gap in the knowledge about how classism might explain this association. To advance scholarship about classism among adolescents and families, I present a new model. This model integrates theories on (a) classism among adults, (b) discrimination among adolescents, (c) family science, (d) social class, and (e) intersectionality. I include hypotheses about the associations between classism and adolescent developmental outcomes and conclude with directions for future research.
