The aim of this research is to study the impact of demographic and socioeconomic situation on the integration of families living in the margins of the cities of Beni Mellal and Fquih Ben Salah. The problem of the study was identified in the following question: How does the demographic and socioeconomic situation of the families settled by the margins of Beni Mellal and Fquih Ben Salah affect their level of integration? In order to achieve the objectives of the study and to answer the problem, two methods were adopted comparative methodology and statistical analysis, and the withdrawal of a simple random sample of households; identified in 321 families in Beni Mellal and 231 families in the city of Fquih Ben Saleh, and use the form as a tool for the study. The results of the study showed that most of the heads of households with margins in Beni Mellal and Fuih Ben Saleh are not educated, where in some marginal residential communities exceeded 50%, the results also showed the increase in the number of members of the same family (the number of members of the family sometimes 17 people) and the weak monthly income which Generally less than 1000 Moroccan dirhams (100 US dollars). The results also showed that this situation has negatively affected the integration of these families, especially at the level of connection to the drinking water and electricity network (where the proportion of households without drinking water exceeded 60%, and without electricity 50%) and construction documents such as designs and licenses (in some residential communities) There is not a single dwelling available on these documents), in addition to the low involvement of families in local environmental programs. The study recommended the need to generalize the fight against illiteracy among adults and motivate them to engage in programs monitored by the Moroccan Agency for Combating Illiteracy and Informal Education, and encourage investment in activities related to agriculture and livestock raising in order to raise family income and finally rehabilitate the margins of the two cities with environmental services and strengthen the role of civil society and facilitate administrative procedures Related to construction and thus facilitate the acceleration of family integration.

The family is one of the key factors influencing values, attitudes to work, professional self-determination and life plans of high school students. The article is devoted to the consideration of family social status role of modern high school students in formation of their competitive orientation and competitiveness.The article analyzes results of theoretical works of Russian and foreign researchers devoted to the analysis of family social capital influence to the educational strategies of adolescents. The methodological basis of the study was a questionnaire survey of high school students conducted in the cities of Tyumen, Tobolsk, Ishim and rural areas of the Tyumen region. IBM SPSS Statistics 23 was used to analyze the data.Considering family social status as the basis of young people “social start” in adulthood, authors note the dual nature of the role of this characteristic in the process of social adaptation of the younger generation. Based on the analysis of the data of questionnaire survey of high school students, the authors conclude differences of opinion on the importance of competitiveness as a necessary quality of personality.According to the results of the study it is shown that in addition to the level of family income, significant characteristics in their social status that affect the competitive orientation and competitiveness of high school students are also the level of parent’s education and their composition (full or single-parent families). It was confirmed that there is a correlation between the respondents’ assessment of personal competitive potential and the socio-professional status of the family.As possible directions for further research can be considered the study of the impact of the level of regional development on competitiveness formation process of high school students, as well as the role of teachers in this process.

Objectives: We investigate the prevalence of poverty across different workers compensation programs using large representative samples of workers’ compensation claimants who have sustained a permanent impairment from a work injury. The programs, which have existed in the provinces of Ontario and British Columbia, Canada over the last 25 years, are the Permanent Disability (PD) program, the Future Economic Loss (FEL) program, the Loss of Earnings (LOE) program, and the Bifurcated Benefits (BB) program. The nature of benefit determination and the return to work supports provided by the four programs are very different. The focus of the study is on evidence of programmatic impact on the probability of poverty in the nine years post injury.Methods: The study included claimants sampled from each of the four programs who sustained a permanent impairment from a work injury. Claimants were identified in a Revenue Canada tax database know as the Longitudinal Administrative Databank (LAD), which is a longitudinal 20% simple random sample of all Canadian tax filers. Each claimant was matched with similar uninjured controls that were also in the LAD, based on sex, age, labour-market earnings amounts and trajectories in the four years prior to injury, family income, marital status, number of children, and a propensity score. Descriptive analysis was undertaken to compare near poverty, poverty and deep poverty levels of claimants relative to their match controls using data on family and individual earnings over a ten-year period post injury. Statistical modeling was used to determine the probability of poverty and near poverty for claimants versus controls. A key issue of interest was to determine was whether the probability of poverty differed between programs.Results: Based on after-tax adjusted family income, the level of poverty was quite low, less than 2% in every program over a ten-year period. The level of poverty was also lower for claimants than their matched controls, but only nominally so. The BB program had the lowest proportion of poverty followed by the PD program, the FEL program and then the LOE program. In the statistical modelling analysis male claimants did not have a higher probability of poverty compared to controls, though female claimants did. Both male and female claimants had a higher probability of near poverty.Conclusions: Poverty levels are very low for workers’ compensation claimants who sustain permanent impairments from a work injury across different programs and time periods in Ontario and British Columbia. Overall the Bifurcated Benefits program from British Columbia had the lowest proportion of claimants in poverty in absolute terms and relative to non-injured workers. Increased levels of poverty due to work injury and permanent impairment are particularly a concern for female claimants, though both female and male claimants have a higher chance of near poverty compared to non-injured workers.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, many are at home, many businesses are out of business. Everyone has experienced the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The country's economy has declined drastically, moreover the family economy has become uncertain and the body of the group has a low standard of living. The family income is getting smaller while the family expenses still have to be paid. Each family must think hard to survive in the uncertainty of the end of the Covid-19 pandemic. Therefore, saving costs for the family must start from self-initiative and if necessary this idea is transmitted to other communities. One of the economical solutions / family cost savings is Urban Farming. Urban Farming is urban farming by utilizing narrow land or around the yard of the house. The purpose of this activity is to save/economize family expenditures as well as urban farming training which is often called Urban Farming. As a result of this service, participants can apply Urban Farming in their surrounding environment to improve the family's economy The Cinderejo Kidul area, Gilingan Village, Banjarsari District was chosen as the location for this service activity because it is located not far from STIE AUB and has also been carried out regularly and continuously.

Abstract Objectives Young US adults consume inadequate amounts of recommended food groups, including fruit, vegetables, and whole grains but little is known about their fluid consumption. The present study aimed to evaluate if this population is meeting the recommendations for adequate fluid intake issued by National Academy of Medicine (NAM). Methods Beverage consumption data for 2160 adults aged 18–24y came from two 24 h dietary recalls in the three most recent cycles of the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES 2011–16). Water intakes (in mL/d) from drinking water, other beverages and moisture from foods were analyzed in relation to the current NAM Adequate Intake (AI) thresholds (3700 mL/d for males and 2700 mL/d for females). The proportion of young adults adhering to the AIs for total water intake was assessed using the National Cancer Institute method for estimating usual intake distributions. Additional analyses examined adherence by gender, income-to-poverty ratio and race/ethnicity. Results Mean water intakes were 2713 mL/d (3003 mL/d for men and 2382 mL/d for women). Of total water, 1191 mL/d (44%) came from drinking water, tap and bottled; 947 mL/d (35%) from non-water beverages; and 575 mL/d (21%) from foods. Only 35.3% of young adults met the AI recommendations. Female young adults were significantly more likely to meet the recommendations than males (37.8% vs. 29.6%; P = 0.04). Compared to the other race/ethnicity groups, non-Hispanic white young adults were most likely to meet recommendations (41.5%). Compared to non-Hispanic white young adults, non-Hispanic black young adults were least likely (18.7%, P < 0.001) to meet recommendations. Mexican-American (29.3%) and other Hispanic young adults (32.3%, P < 0.05 for each) were also less likely to meet recommendations when compared to non-Hispanic white young adults. No significant effects by family income were observed. Conclusions Less than half of all young adults and only 18.7% of non-Hispanic Black young adults met the AI recommendations for water. Understanding the reasons for the high proportion of young adults failing to meet recommendations should be the subject of future research. Given the impact of habitual fluid intake on health outcomes, adequate hydration among young adults remains a cause for concern. Funding Sources Data analyses were sponsored by PepsiCo Inc.

In family contexts, individuals are embedded in networks of relationships. Social Network Analysis (SNA) provides a unique framework to investigate family relationships as interrelated networks above and beyond dyadic familial relationships. In the current paper, we used the notion of triadic closure to investigate how various configurations of family networks, classified by their relationship ties, differ in predicting adolescents’ experiences of loneliness. We classified different types of network structures based on whether all three family members (i.e., child, mother, father) shared high quality relationships with one another (closed) or whether one or more low quality ties existed in the family triad (open). Results indicated that, compared to adolescents in families containing one or more poor-quality ties, adolescents in families containing all high-quality relational ties experienced lower levels of loneliness, above and beyond the impact of gender, parents’ education and mental health, and family income. Simply put, adolescents’ experiences of loneliness is not tied to the number of high quality relationships they experience within the family, rather is dependent on the presence of high quality relationships among all family ties. With the introduction of one low-quality relationship within a family triad, additional low-quality relationships appear to make little difference. In line with family systems theory, our examination of the family as a whole, rather than as a summative combination of smaller relationships, indicates that a closed family structure is important for protecting adolescents against experiences of loneliness.

This paper investigates two aspects of the paid employment relationship between female and male partners aged 23. It is argued that in order to understand women's position in the home and the labour market it is necessary to consider employment relationships in the context of the household. The impact of children on women's labour force participation is already well known and in this paper we show that marriage also has an independent effect on hours worked. The second aspect of the paper concerns the relative financial contribution of each partner to the family income from their labour market earnings. It is recognised that power and equality within the home are to some extent derived from the relative contribution of partners to the family income. It is shown that women are economically dependent on men even in the early stages of their partnership before children and that this dependence is greater among women with children.

Family farms are the main form of organization in agriculture and play an essential role in the development of rural areas. One of the main characteristics of the family farms is that the members of the households work in them. The purpose of the study is, based on an analysis of a real farm and the impact of direct support on family income, to draw recommendations for policy development in this direction. In order to achieve this goal, an economic-mathematical model was developed, and eight scenarios with different levels of support were examined. The main conclusion is that the farm could operate without receiving support because the income generated by this scenario is sufficient to provide an average standard of living for the family. However, CAP support helps its faster development.
