Innovation in Times of Regulatory Uncertainty: Responses to the Threat of “Gainful Employment”
Innovative Higher Education, 2015Co-Authors: Guilbert C. Hentschke, Shirley C. ParryAbstract:While advocates of the proposed “Gainful Employment” regulations promise a variety of improvements for students attending for-profit colleges and universities (FPCUs), there is little research on how these institutions are responding to this heightened form of accountability. Through interviews with senior executives of FPCUs, we used grounded theory to identify three general institutional responses – catalytic, reactionary and status quo – plus16 program-related initiatives. This study assessed responses to increased environmental uncertainty brought about by the potential Gainful Employment regulations.

Women’s Gainful Employment in ‘gher’ farming system (prawn–carp–rice integrated culture) in Bangladesh: trends and determinants
Aquaculture International, 2019Co-Authors: Sanzidur Rahman, Basanta Kumar BarmonAbstract:The paper examines trends in women’s Gainful Employment in ‘prawn-carp’ and ‘high yield variety (HYV) rice’ enterprises of the ‘gher’ farming system and jointly identifies the determinants of employing female and male labor in these enterprises using a farm-level panel data of 90 producers covering a 14-year period (2002–2015) from southwest Bangladesh by applying a multivariate Tobit approach. Results revealed that women’s Gainful Employment and real wage increased significantly with a substantial reduction in wage gap between female and male labor. The decision to employ female and male labor was found to be positively correlated thereby confirming jointness in decision-making and validity of our chosen approach. Prices and socio-economic factors exerted varied influences on female and male labor demand. Output prices, cultivated area, education, and experience positively increased women’s Gainful Employment whereas larger family size reduced it. Policy implications include investments in education targeted at the ‘gher’ farming households and land reform policies to consolidate farm size and facilitate smooth functioning of the land market to increase women’s Gainful Employment.

Socioeconomic Mobility, Identity, and Health: Experiences That Influence Immunology and Implications for Intervention
The American psychologist, 2018Co-Authors: Mesmin DestinAbstract:By many accounts, young people from modest socioeconomic backgrounds who succeed in education and secure Gainful Employment should expect to experience better physical health as a result of their elevated social position. However, increasing evidence indicates that experiences of socioeconomic mobil

Health status and mobility limitations are associated with residential and Employment status in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Journal of psychiatric research, 2017Co-Authors: Martin Strassnig, Danielle Cornacchio, Philip D. Harvey, Roman Kotov, Laura J. Fochtmann, Evelyn J. BrometAbstract:Abstract Introduction Schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorder (BP) are linked to multiple impairments in everyday functioning which share cognitive and symptom risk factors. Other risk factors for critical aspects of every day functioning (e.g., Gainful Employment; residential independence) such as physical health have not been evaluated, despite poor health in SCZ and BP. Methods We analyzed 20-year follow-up data from the Suffolk County Mental Health Project cohort of consecutive first admissions with a psychotic disorder to 12 psychiatric facilities in Suffolk County, NY, between September 1989 and December 1995. Both 20-year symptom, health, and cognition data, and the 20-year course of weight gain were included as predictors of Employment and residence status. Results The analysis sample consisted of 122 participants with SCZ ad BP, with SCZ participants less likely to work or live independently. Correlational analyses showed symptoms and cognition predicted vocational outcomes in both samples. The effect of diagnosis was significant for both Gainful Employment and independence in residence. After consideration of diagnosis, mobility and negative symptoms predicted Gainful Employment in both samples, but there were no additional predictors of residential independence. Prospective analysis of BMI found that baseline BMI, but not changes during the 20-year follow up, predicted labor force participation. Discussion Health status limitations were associated with residential and, particularly, Employment status independent from other, previously established predictors of everyday outcomes, including cognition and symptoms. The importance of health status limitations for predicting outcome was confirmed in both SCZ and BP, with schizophrenia representing the more impaired group.

Gainful Employment and risk of mortality after spinal cord injury effects beyond that of demographic injury and socioeconomic factors
Spinal Cord, 2012Co-Authors: James S. Krause, Lee L. Saunders, Joshua AcunaAbstract:To evaluate the association of three levels of Gainful Employment with the risk of mortality after traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) while controlling for known predictors of mortality status (including education and income). Prospective cohort study A total of 20 federally funded SCI Model Systems of care in the United States. Participants included 7955 adults with traumatic SCI. Preliminary assessments were conducted between 1995 and 2006. Mortality status was determined by the Social Security Death Index (1308 deaths). A two-stage logistic regression model was used to estimate the chance of dying in any given year. Life expectancy was calculated under different economic assumptions. Compared with those who were working 30+ h per week, the odds of mortality was 1.37 for those who worked 1–29 h and 1.67 for those who were unemployed. The addition of Gainful Employment only modestly reduced the effects of household income and education, both of which remained significant. For instance, the odds of mortality for household income (referent $75 000+) decreased from 1.50 to 1.38 for $25 000–$75 000 and from 2.10 to 1.82 for <$25 000. Life expectancy varied widely depending on socioeconomic characteristics more than doubling under certain assumptions. Substantial variation in mortality is attributable to Employment, above and beyond the effects of previously established demographic, injury and socioeconomic predictors. Although some excess mortality may be the inevitable consequence of SCI, risk is substantially increased with poor socioeconomic characteristics.
