Sexual and gendered violence affects individuals, communities and societies alike. Present in all cultures and walks of life, it can ruin lives, destroy families, break trust and encumber economies. And yet, while the effects can be devastating, stories of resilience and empowerment exist.

Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a technique to test hypothesized models with observed and latent variables. It encompasses many techniques, such as linear regression, multivariate regression, and factor analysis as special cases. This course provides a practical introduction of structural equation modeling using the open source R statistical platform.

Course Outline

This course introduces tools for conducting empirical analysis of longitudinal data: data collected from the same entities at different points in time. Such data is commonly seen in health and social sciences research. Participants will obtain a good understanding of methods for analyzing longitudinal data including: pooled OLS, fixed effects estimation, random effects models, and fixed effects models for binary outcomes. There will be a mixture of theoretical and practical sessions using the statistical software package STATA.

Course Outline

Our world is undergoing rapid population aging with unprecedented social transformations. Now has never been a better time for researchers, policymakers and business analysts to prepare for a grey future, both as a challenge and an opportunity. This course is to review the theoretical perspectives and models for elderly well-being in later lives, practices and trends for the major old-age policies, potentials and strategies of the silver business. All topics will be addressed in a multidisciplinary way, including biomedical, psychological, socioeconomic, and environmental dimensions.

Qualitative research is an established mode of inquiry in the human and social sciences that seeks in-depth information in a narrative form. At the most general level, it generates in-depth understanding of human behaviour and lived experiences in all their complexity. The qualitative methods aim to elicit the human dimension of social and cultural experiences by paying attention to the meanings, motivations, beliefs, opinions, emotions, and relationships of individuals.

SPSS is a major software of data analysis in social research. For researchers involved in collecting, processing, and modeling data from social research, this is a course that will teach them how to use SPSS from inputting and analyzing data, as well as interpreting and presenting results. The course is not only to teach the main technologies of using this software, but also to make sense of each specific procedure of analysis. Both the descriptive and inferential statistical methods are covered that can be used to analyze data relevant to the social research.

Dear Colleagues,

Death and dying have often been treated as experiences distant from childhood, both in policy and practice. Often, in conversations and policy documents, death appears to be a subject pertinent to older age or chronic illness, specifically cancer. However, this Special Issue contributes to a different discourse, which suggests that children may also be confronted with death, not simply as grievers but also dying themselves.

The World Health Organization considers questions like the global increase in dementia as issues that can be tackled, in part, through design. The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research underlines how environments can actively exclude whole sections of society by design itself. The World Institute of Psychology identifies multiple links between mood, behavior and the objects we interact with daily.
