Dimensión subjetiva del trabajo: Algunas ideas a partir de una investigación con profesionales * Subjective Dimension of work: some ideas from research with professionals
2013Co-Authors: Deidi MacaAbstract:This paper presents some ideas about the Subjective Dimension of work from ethnographic research with two professional groups, one composed of those who are inserted in the labor market before 1990 and another for those who do it later. It is found that there are no radical differences between the two groups in relation to the meaning of work (hobby; activity of the mind; collection of values; challenge; blessing; difficulty, effort, and slavery), which could be related with the fact that the value systems, of which the meanings are a part of remain, prevalent for a long time and seem not to be strongly affected by the restructurings of the labor field.

The Subjective Dimension of social isolation: A qualitative investigation of older adults' experiences in small social support networks
Journal of Aging Studies, 2011Co-Authors: Denise Cloutier-fisher, Karen M. Kobayashi, André SmithAbstract:Abstract In the aging literature, social isolation has been primarily defined in terms of reduced support network size and low frequency of social contacts. Having a small social support network is associated with social isolation and an increased risk of physical and emotional vulnerability. However, this conceptualization ignores the contributions of a host of other factors, including life experiences, family dynamics, and long-term patterns of socialization. This paper argues that alongside quantitative assessments of support systems, the application of a life course perspective is needed to understand small social networks as lived experience. We report on findings from 28 in-depth interviews with older adults identified as being at risk of social isolation on the basis of the self-reported size of their social networks. We discuss these participants' experiences in the context of significant life course transitions such as marriage and widowhood.

comparing social contact and group identification as predictors of mental health
British Journal of Social Psychology, 2012Co-Authors: Fabio Sani, Marina Herrera, Juliet R H Wakefield, Olga Boroch, Csilla GulyasAbstract:Current research on social integration and mental health operationalizes social integration as frequency of interactions and participation in social activities (i.e., social contact). This neglects the Subjective Dimension of social integration, namely group identification. We present two studies comparing the effect exerted by social contact and group identification on mental health (e.g., depression, stress) across two different groups (family; army unit), demonstrating that group identification predicts mental health better than social contact.

Where is the ‘Social’ in Constructions of ‘Liveability’? Exploring Community, Social Interaction and Social Cohesion in Changing Urban Environments
Urban Policy and Research, 2016Co-Authors: Kathleen Lloyd, Simone Fullagar, Sacha ReidAbstract:Ongoing changes in the urban environment have renewed interest in the transformation of cities and suburbs as liveable places. This article examines the limitations inherent in a functional (objective) notion of liveability that commonly underpins government policy directions. Through an examination of key debates in the literature we consider how the delivery of the social (Subjective) Dimension of liveability, linked to community, social interaction and social cohesion, poses unique challenges for policy makers, urban planners and developers. We argue for a deeper understanding of the social constructs of liveability that acknowledges the complexity of changing urban environments in contemporary society.
