Abstract

This qualitative study aims to explore the lives of homeless people around Georgetown, Penang, Malaysia especially in the social support aspect of their lives. Twenty (20) informants were involved in this study. Data obtained were analyzed using the content analysis method. The results showed that the homeless were classified as those who had given up hope. Lack of social support resources makes the homeless' lives to be drifted and then further triggers risky behaviour changes. The feelings of isolation and neglect caused the homeless to decide not to have any kind of relationship with their nuclear family. This study has the potential to contribute to the knowledge of social marginalization issues affecting homeless people in Malaysia in general and especially in Georgetown, Penang as well as its implications for the survival and sustainability of these minorities' lives.

Abstract

This conceptual article discusses social work practice with Hmong Americans using a framework that embraces anti-oppressive practice, empowerment and strengths-based approaches. Specifically, the Hmong kinship social construct of kwv tij neej tsa (pronounced: ku tee ning ja) is used to elaborate on the importance of upholding family relationships that transcends the worker-client relationship. Social workers are encouraged to empower Hmong to seek and ask for resources that support their collective value of connection to family and group identity, which is a strength that contributes to resilience and buffers against historically oppressive practices and systems.

Abstract

Person-Centered approach is an adapted work of Carl Rogers, where the focus was mainly on psychotherapy and counselling. Rogers believed, the basic nature of an individual is constructive and trustworthy – given that the individual is freely functioning. Person-Centered approach is the backbone of social work practice alongside trauma-informed approach. Any emotionally and physically daunting events that affects the response of an individual is trauma. Trauma damages the freely functioning state of an individual – emotionally, socially and behaviorally. By introducing an approach that is trauma-informed will help social worker to not only understand the emotions of the individual while working with them but also guide the social work practice in better understanding while working with the individuals.

Abstract

Generasi muda merupakan modal insan yang amat penting kepada kesejahteraan dan pembangunan negara. Penglibatan golongan ini dalam aktiviti penyalahgunaan dadah telah mengancam keselamatan dan kemakmuran negara, malahan menjejaskan perkembangan sahsiah diri remaja ke alam dewasa. Oleh itu, kajian ini dijalankan bertujuan untuk menganalisis sejauh mana tahap ‘celik akal’ terhadap pengetahuan dadah dan kesannya dalam kalangan penagih remaja. Pengkaji mengaplikasikan pendekatan kualitatif melalui temu bual separuh berstruktur untuk memperoleh data. Kajian kes digunakan untuk meneroka dan memahami fenomena yang berlaku berdasarkan perspektif peserta kajian. Seramai enam orang remaja yang dikenal pasti mempunyai rekod penyalahgunaan dadah dan berusia di antara 13-18 tahun telah dipilih sebagai peserta kajian melalui persampelan bertujuan. Dapatan diperolehi menunjukkan ‘celik akal’ terhadap dadah yang dimiliki oleh penagih remaja adalah bersifat umum iaitu sekadar cuma mengetahui dadah itu bahan bahaya, menimbulkan ketagihan serta memberikan kesan fizikal dan psikologikal. Sumber maklumat dadah berdasarkan pengalaman mereka sendiri sebagai seorang penagih dadah sebelum ini dan melalui kawan-kawan. Kajian ini memberi implikasi ke arah memperkasakan modul pendidikan pencegahan dadah dalam kalangan remaja oleh pihak berkepentingan dengan menyebarluaskan segala maklumat melalui percambahan pengetahuan dadah dan kesan yang tepat serta betul sebagai instrumen utama untuk membanteras masalah penyalahgunaan dadah di Malaysia.

Abstract

Addressing the fact that studies on self-care of Vietnamese middle-aged women remain scarse, our presenting study aims to investigate the relationship between supportive resources utilized by Vietnamese middle-aged women and their types of self-care. Data were collected from survey interview with 512 middle-aged women (aged from 40 to 60 years old) in Hanoi city and Quang Ninh province. A series of linear regression was performed on the six types of self-care, including: physical care, supportive relationships, mindful awareness, self-compassion & purpose, mindful relaxation, and supportive structure. Three types of supportive resources and other covariates (age, education, and residence area) were entered into these models as key predictors. The study results show that the use of different level of resources was associated with different types of self-care practice. The use of micro-resource system significantly predicted all six types of self-care among Vietnamese middle-aged women. The mesenchymal and peripheral resource systems significantly predicted physical care only among Vietnamese middled-age women. The macro resource system was significantly associated with the practice of mind-relaxing and supportive structure. In addition, people who were older, had better education and lived in urban areas tended to participate more in physical care. Women with a higher education level and living in urban areas were predicted to utilize more supportive relationships and mindful relaxation. Women living in urban areas, having a higher level of education practiced mindful relaxation significantly more than their counterparts. Using more supportive structure was significantly more among women living in urban areas, in older age groups and having higher education levels. The key findings suggest the promotion of active support from the micro-level system, as well as advocate for social policy development to help less privileged groups of women access and use mezzo and macro resources more effectively.
