                        <p><p>Feminist Theory, Ahead of Print. <br>This article builds on existing feminist critiques of transnational debt regimes and austerity politics in order to theorise a new conception of reproductive debt. This involves critiquing debt burdens imposed upon people who reproduce, as a consequence of global restructuring programmes, cuts to social services and the increasing financialisation of reproduction. In place of individualised obligations to financial lenders, I argue that we all owe an infinite debt to those who reproduce, in order to ensure that reproduction is possible when desired and that its necessary conditions – social, cultural and environmental – are supported. This theory of reproductive debt draws on the 1970s Wages for Housework movement, feminist literature on reproductive labour and Kathi Weeks’ post-work politics. It also explores Patty Chang’s video exhibition Milk Debt, which was inspired by David Graeber’s discussion of the Chinese Buddhist tenet of ‘milk debt’: the infinite kindness of mothers, exemplified by the practice of breastfeeding, which can never be repaid. Recognising the negative impacts of environmental damage and histories of slavery and colonialism on reproduction, reproductive debt is understood as an infinite, non-quantifiable obligation that is the basis for our shared existence on this planet.</p>

                    <span class="a-plus-plus abstract-section id-a-sec2"></span></p>
<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Methods</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">A population sample of 777 women (aged 38, 46, 50 and 54 years) without dementia at baseline was followed over 50 years, from 1968 to 2019. Stress-related exhaustion was based on information from the psychiatric examination in 1968/69. Information on dementia incidence between 1968 and 2019 was obtained from neuropsychiatric examinations, key-informant interviews, and hospital registry. Dementia was diagnosed according to the DSM-III-R criteria. A subgroup of non-demented women (<em class="a-plus-plus">n</em> = 284) was examined for cognitive functions by the Gottfries-Bråne-Steen scale 24 years after baseline.</p>

<p class="a-plus-plus">Stress-related exhaustion in midlife was associated with higher risk for development of dementia before age 75 (Hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval: 2.95 and 1.35–6.44). The association remained after adjustment for age, major depression, and anxiety disorder. Mean age of dementia onset was younger for women with stress-related exhaustion than women without stress (mean ± SD, 76 ± 9 vs. 82 ± 8 . <em class="a-plus-plus">p</em> = 0.009). Women with stress-related exhaustion in midlife still showed more cognitive impairments 24 years later compared with women without stress (Odds ratio and 95% confidence interval: 2.64 and 1.15–6.06).</p>

<h3 class="a-plus-plus">Conclusions</h3>
<p class="a-plus-plus">We found that women with stress-related exhaustion in midlife were at a higher risk to develop dementia at relatively younger age. These women showed persistently lower cognitive functions over years even without dementia. Present study results need to be interpreted with caution due to small sample size and should be confirmed in future studies with larger sample size. Our study findings may imply the importance of long-term follow-up regarding cognitive function among individuals with stress-related exhaustion.</p>

<div class="boxTitle">Abstract</div>
<p>The Venezuelan crisis has led to over three million people crossing into Colombia. One strategy to address this situation is the Temporary Protection Statute (TPS), aimed at granting migrants legal status and responsibilities without providing them refugee status. Critics argue that portraying this solution as humanitarian might undermine its role as a protective measure. Additionally, there is a lack of understanding of the TPS as a political tool and the problems it aims to tackle. Using a Post-structural Policy Analysis (PPA), this article unpacks the TPS as a political device and the driving forces behind its development. Through text analysis and qualitative semi-structured interviews, the PPA reveals how the TPS in Colombia can be seen as a multifaceted legal and political tool bridging short-term humanitarian needs (primarily protection, healthcare, and labour market access) and long-term development practices (such as integration through ensuring economic, social, and environmental rights), within a complex political landscape hindering long-term solutions. Its legal text epitomises political drivers and discourses shaping migration governance and international protection. This study also shows PPA’s effectiveness in revealing these political factors and the policy-problem-making justifying the TPS as a solution, and offers case-based insights to enhance comparative migration studies.</p>

<div class="boxTitle">Objectives</div>
<p>Informal care provided by adult children is of great importance for older adults’ well-being in China. This paper investigates and compares the functional transitions among older adults living in rural areas who receive care from daughters’ and from sons’ families.</p>
<div class="boxTitle">Method</div>
<p>This study utilizes the ‘Well-being of Elderly Survey in Anhui Province’ (WESAP), from 2001 to 2021. Our sample included 2,797 individuals aged 60 years or over. Functional status was based on the activities of daily living (ADLs) and the instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). We employed a random-effects ordered logit model to examine the functional transitions among the older adults.</p>
<div class="boxTitle">Results</div>
<p>Receiving care from daughters’ families is significantly associated with a lower likelihood of functional decline compared to receiving care from sons’ families in rural China. The advantage associated with daughter care becomes more pronounced among older individuals with a severe functional difficulty compared to those with a mild or moderate functional difficulty. The difference is prevalent among older adults aged 75 and above, with less wealth or multiple chronic diseases, or who live alone. Furthermore, among those with severe functional difficulties, the daughter advantage is more significant for fathers as compared to mothers.</p>
<div class="boxTitle">Discussion</div>
<p>Nowadays, daughters’ families can provide high-quality informal care, often surpassing that offered by sons’ families. This daughter advantage becomes even more significant among older adults who have a higher need for family care, such as those with severe disabilities and limited financial resources.</p>

                        <p><p>Journal of Social Work, Ahead of Print. <br>SummaryIn the few social work publications dedicated to exploring phenomenological philosophical concepts, embodiment or the lived body, promoted especially by phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty, seems to have received special attention. Roughly, and according to a phenomenological philosophical perspective, the lived body signifies a mind–body unity that is believed to constitute acts of human perception, including social perception. This article aims to critically appraise three accounts of embodiment in social work literature, focusing on issues of application for the sake of clarifying the value and relevance of applied phenomenology in social work practice. After providing an overview of the reception of phenomenology in the social work literature, and introducing the three cases to be explored and their respective application of Merleau-Ponty’s concept of the lived body, the article discusses Merleau-Ponty’s own view on phenomenology, followed by a critical discussion of the three cases.FindingsAn applied phenomenology of embodiment turns out to be an ambiguous proposal, while simultaneously posing a challenge to the common-sense notion of professional reflection in face-to-face interaction between professional and client. The value of applying a phenomenology of embodiment to social work practice must arguably correspond to the question of how the lived body of the professional is disclosed reflectively in the encounter with other bodies, rather than simply how professionals adopt a theory to make sense of bodily experience at work.ApplicationsThis article contributes to clarifying the social situatedness of professional reflection, while also strengthening the case for phenomenological social work by exploring issues of application.</p>

                        <p><p>Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, Ahead of Print. <br>Despite the potential benefits of integrating family–school partnerships into school-wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS), many barriers persist that limit a school’s ability to engage in meaningful family–school partnerships. These barriers to implementation suggest the importance of understanding the extent to which school teams can overcome these obstacles and promote family–school partnerships in PBIS. The present study adds to the literature by evaluating school teams’ reported implementation of different recommended practices in family–school partnerships in PBIS. Specifically, school teams in the U.S. state of Massachusetts (N = 79) participating in a 3-year PBIS implementation training program completed a survey (65% response rate) where they reported the extent to which they were implementing family–school partnership practices in PBIS across a variety of domains. Findings suggest relative strengths (i.e., communication, resources) and opportunities for growth (i.e., shared decision-making) in schools’ implementation of family–school partnership strategies in PBIS. We also found school characteristics related to increased enrollment and greater racial diversity of the student body posed additional challenges for school staff in ensuring high fidelity implementation of family–school partnership strategies in PBIS. We end with suggestions for researchers and practitioners to boost implementation of key features of family–school partnerships in PBIS via equitable and culturally responsive implementation strategies.</p>

                        <p><p>Educational and Psychological Measurement, Ahead of Print. <br>Social desirability bias (SDB) is a common threat to the validity of conclusions from responses to a scale or survey. There is a wide range of person-fit statistics in the literature that can be employed to detect SDB. In addition, machine learning classifiers, such as logistic regression and random forest, have the potential to distinguish between biased and unbiased responses. This study proposes a new application of these classifiers to detect SDB by considering several person-fit indices as features or predictors in the machine learning methods. The results of a Monte Carlo simulation study showed that for a single feature, applying person-fit indices directly and logistic regression led to similar classification results. However, the random forest classifier improved the classification of biased and unbiased responses substantially. Classification was improved in both logistic regression and random forest by considering multiple features simultaneously. Moreover, cross-validation indicated stable area under the curves (AUCs) across machine learning classifiers. A didactical illustration of applying random forest to detect SDB is presented.</p>
