Sobrevitimização feminina: os nocivos impactos da publicização da ação penal nos crimes contra a liberdade sexual
Authors: Silva Fernando Laércio Alves da , Guimarães Marina Oliveira
Published: January 2025

O artigo objetiva analisar as formas de sobrevitimização presentes na apuração e no julgamento de crimes sexuais contra mulheres no Brasil, com foco na recente alteração legislativa relacionada à ação penal pública incondicionada para esses crimes. Com isso, busca-se compreender se essa mudança legal resulta em nova forma de violência contra as mulheres, considerando o funcionamento do sistema penal. Destaca que as sucessivas alterações legislativas têm relegado as vítimas a uma posição secundária no processo, tratando-as frequentemente apenas como meios de prova, em vez de fortalecer sua autonomia e participação decisória. O trabalho enfatiza a necessidade de se implantarem medidas mais abrangentes e eficazes para combater a violência sexual e proteger os direitos das vítimas
Presidencialismo de coalizão: poder de agenda e taxas de dominância e de sucesso nas relações entre o Executivo e o Legislativo
Authors: Pinheiro Victor Marcel , Falconi Ivan Furlan , Vieira Gustavo Afonso Sabóia
Published: January 2025

O artigo analisa a relação entre o Poder Executivo e o Poder Legislativo na produção legislativa, centrando-se no modelo de presidencialismo de coalizão estabelecido pela Constituição de 1988. A discussão teórica sobre a eficácia desse modelo remonta à Redemocratização nos anos 1980, com alguns autores expressando ceticismo quanto ao seu funcionamento. Por outro lado, para os defensores do presidencialismo de coalizão, a dominação da pauta legislativa pelo Executivo é alcançada por meio de mecanismos institucionais e pela estrutura do Parlamento. Diante dessas concepções, o artigo analisa as taxas de dominância e de sucesso do Executivo de 1988 a 2022 para verificar se houve mudanças na participação do Poder Executivo na promulgação de normas. O estudo utiliza dados do Senado Federal e revisão bibliográfica para examinar essas questões e avaliar a influência do Executivo na agenda legislativa, concluindo por sua redução relativa nas legislaturas mais recentes
Reformas previdenciárias: aproximações entre o Brasil e a França
Authors: Tavares Marcelo Leonardo , Ibrahim Fábio Zambitte , Ferreira Carlos Vinicius Ribeiro
Published: January 2025

Este artigo investiga o processo de elaboração de reformas previdenciárias no Brasil em 2019 e na França em 2023. Do ponto de vista teórico-metodológico e na vertente jurídico-sociológica, a pesquisa focaliza a tramitação legislativa nos dois países. Adotam-se as metodologias de abordagem jurídico-comparativa, jurídico-compreensiva, jurídico-prospectiva e jurídico-propositiva e os métodos de pesquisa bibliográfico e documental. Inicialmente, aborda-se o sistema legislativo brasileiro e seu processo de reforma da previdência, em especial a Emenda Constitucional nº 103/2019. Em seguida, examina-se o procedimento francês e a reforma previdenciária de 2023, bem como o art. 49.3 da Constituição. Ambos os processos são analisados à luz do direito fundamental ao devido procedimento na elaboração normativa e quanto às aproximações possíveis. Ao final, constata-se que esses países, dentro de suas particularidades, adotaram procedimentos legislativos que visaram sobretudo diminuir a proteção social e aumentar a arrecadação de recursos para outras áreas
Quadro de despesas de médio prazo: instrumento útil para qualificar gastos públicos em contexto de forte restrição derivada de ajuste fiscal
Authors: Rodrigues Julia Alves Marinho , Almeida Dayson Pereira Bezerra de , Fossati Gustavo
Published: January 2025

A anualidade do ciclo orçamentário (“curto-prazismo”) leva à tomada de decisões sobre gastos públicos facilmente acometidas por “miopia alocativa”, quando não há a devida consciência dos seus impactos no equilíbrio fiscal e na realização das metas relativas a políticas públicas. O processo orçamentário brasileiro continua vinculado à dinâmica paroquialista de alocação de recursos públicos. A Organização para a Cooperação e Desenvolvimento Econômico (OCDE) recomenda que o problema seja enfrentado sob uma abordagem comum denominada medium-term expenditure framework (MTEF) – ou quadro de despesas de médio prazo (QDMP) –, objeto deste estudo. O artigo descreve o que é o QDMP e o seu valor para os processos de planejamento e orçamento. Expõe um panorama da experiência internacional em QDMP e examina o planejamento plurianual do gasto público de quatro países: Alemanha, França, EUA e Brasil. A última seção do desenvolvimento identifica os potenciais benefícios da adoção do QDMP pelo Brasil
A proteção dos vulneráveis no programa Minha casa, minha vida: uma análise do artigo 35‑A da Lei nº 11.977/2009
Authors: Lima Neto Antonio Oliveira , Ehrhardt Júnior Marcos
Published: January 2025

Proteger e fomentar o direito à moradia é uma das estipulações da Constituição de 1988. Assim, cabe ao Estado facilitar o acesso e a manutenção da moradia às pessoas que não tenham condições de fazê-lo sem o auxílio estatal e, em maior medida, proteger o direito à moradia dos vulneráveis. Com o objetivo de proteger a mulher e os filhos menores em caso de dissolução da união conjugal foi criado o art. 35‑A da Lei nº 11.977/2009. Todavia, essa norma é uma exceção a princípios jurídicos, o que a torna, em algumas situações, inoportuna e injusta para com um dos cônjuges. Este artigo trata de aspectos do direito à moradia, da proteção aos vulneráveis e da aplicabilidade da legislação comentada e analisa se ela seria, em alguma medida, inconstitucional. De caráter descritivo, a pesquisa desenvolve-se pelos métodos dedutivo e comparativo, em suas vertentes bibliográfica e documental. A análise dos possíveis problemas e soluções da aplicação do art. 35‑A da Lei nº 11.977/2009 compreende a pesquisa doutrinária e desenvolve-se do geral para o específico
A regência dos direitos dos migrantes por motivos econômicos na União Europeia e no Mercosul
Authors: Bichara Jahyr-Philippe
Published: January 2025

A mobilidade de pessoas supera fronteiras territoriais desde os primórdios. O direito chamado natural de deixar um território de origem pressupõe o direito correlato de entrada em outro. Esse direito de entrada, no entanto, colide com a soberania dos Estados, de modo que se esta fosse absoluta, aquele seria impossível. Todavia, a prática demonstra a objetividade desse direito (verificada na “flexibilização” do voluntarismo clássico), dado que a globalização e o liberalismo estimulam os Estados, sobretudo no plano regional, a abrirem suas fronteiras por meio de tratados que estabelecem o direito de entrada e aperfeiçoam a mobilidade com o propósito do desenvolvimento econômico. O presente estudo propõe-se analisar as normas relativas à circulação interna de nacionais de Estados-membros da União Europeia e do Mercosul, os quais, ao estabelecerem um espaço econômico sem fronteiras, deixam mais evidente que o Direito Internacional evolui para o reconhecimento do direito de entrada

Wood-framed buildings are popular for residential and commercial construction due to their sustainability, costeffectiveness, and aesthetic appeal. However, their seismic performance is a concern, particularly in earthquakeprone regions. This study investigates the seismic performance of wood-framed buildings with advanced connection systems. The research evaluates the structural integrity and resilience of wood-framed buildings subjected to seismic loads. Advanced connection systems, including innovative fastening techniques and reinforced connections, are analyzed to determine their effectiveness in enhancing the seismic performance of wood-framed buildings. The study aims to provide valuable insights for designers, engineers, and builders to improve the seismic resilience of wood-framed buildings.  seismic performance of wood-framed buildings, advanced connection systems, and structural wood design. Determine areas requiring further investigation. The fundamentals of displacement-based seismic design are presented along with a description of the system parameters required for its application. A simple numerical model capable of predicting the cyclic response and energy dissipation characteristics of wood shear walls under general quasi-static cyclic loading is presented to evaluate these parameters for wood-framed buildings. The generalization of this model to three-dimensional wood-framed structures is also discussed. As an application example, the displacement-based seismic design of a simple one-story shear wall building is presented. In turn, this design approach is validated by nonlinear dynamic time-history analyses using earthquake records representative of the hazard levels associated with the design performance levels.
A Post-Cringe Theory of Psychedelic Spirituality in the Rave Scene
Authors: Lhooq Michelle
Published: January 2025

This essay uses the concept of cringe as a tool to assess where the rave scene has gone stale and to argue for ways it may reclaim a transcendent spirit. While we may never be able to fully escape the cringe, the powerful emotions it signals can serve as a shock collar, alerting us to behaviors and beliefs that were perhaps once radical but have since become outdated and cliche. In this way, I argue for the instrumentalization of cringe as a way of advancing the psychedelic music scene beyond its cringe and capitalist present. There cannot be change without cringe.
The Soma Question: Interrogating the History of Psychedelics with Sanskrit Mantras
Authors: Gerety Finnian M. Moore
Published: January 2025

Historical narratives tell us as much about the present as they do about the past—and the grand narrative of psychedelics in the ancient world is no exception. “What is soma?” is a perennial question for historians of psychedelics as they investigate this mysterious psychoactive sacrament of early India. Documented in Sanskrit texts starting in the late Bronze Age, it is reputed to be among the oldest and most venerable psychedelics—yet the material substance of soma remains unidentified. Although soma’s fame in modernity arises from scholarly engagement with Sanskrit texts, the resulting narrative of psychedelic history reveals more about the twentieth-century discourse on plants and drugs than it does about the original Indian sources. This essay interrogates the history of psychedelics through the historiography of the soma question.

Biomedicine is insufficiently able to address “bad trips” and specifically negative entity encounters that psychedelic users regularly aver. To address the inadequacy of biomedicine to address this question, this essay proposes a turn toward other ontologies better equipped to understand these experiences and support patients. This paper presents a model/framework for contextualizing psychedelic experience through one such ontological turn: a psychedelic theodicy.

Background: Self-evaluation, as an expression of self-concept, becomes increasingly complex in adolescence. Parental bonding, personality traits, and psychological status were the three main determining factors of adolescents’ self-evaluation. We aimed to tested associations through a systematic approach.

Methods: Data were from the 2014 Chinese Family Panel Studies (CFPS). The association of parental bonding (measured by the Parental Bonding Instrument), personality traits (the Responsibility Scale), and psychological status (the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale) with self-evaluation measured in three domains (the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Nowicki- Strickland Locus of Control Scale for children and the Self-Discipline Scale) were tested by the structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis.

Results: A total of 892 Chinese adolescents were included. Significant positive correlations were found among self-evaluation, parental bonding, personality traits, and psychological status. The overall (direct and indirect) effect of parental bonding on adolescents’ self-evaluation was 0.49. Personality traits and psychological status were directly associated with adolescents’ self-evaluation.

Conclusion: The use of SEM offered a detailed analysis of the correlations between parental bonding, personality traits, and psychological status and a systematic approach to investigate their direct and indirect effects on adolescents’ self-evaluation. The three factors directly associated with adolescents’ self-evaluation and parental bonding indirectly affected adolescents’ self-evaluation that was mediated by both personality traits and psychological status.
الصراع في أوكرانيا وتداعياته على السياسة الدولية: إعادة تشكيل التحالفات والقوى

تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى البحث في تداعيات الحرب الروسية-الأوكرانية التي بدأت في شباط عام 2022، سياسيًّا واقتصاديًّا واستراتيجيًّا، في ظل تعدد الأطراف المعنية بالصراع وتعقّد المشهد الدولي. وتحاول أن تحدّد تأثيرها في السياسة الدولية، خاصة من حيث أنماط التفاعلات الدولية بعد الحرب، وتوازنات النظام الدولي القائم ومساراته المستقبلية لا سيما على إعادة تشكيل التحالفات والقوى الاقليمية والدولية. فلقد أثار التقارب الروسي الصيني الجدل، لدرجة أن الولايات المتحدة تحاول احتواء الصين، ومنعها من تدعيم روسيا، خاصة إذا حاولت تقديم دعم مباشر لها فى المجال العسكري فى الحرب ضد أوكرانيا. ومن جهة أخرى، أعادت هذه الحرب تذكير أعضاء الناتو بأهمية الحلف وجعله أكثر تماسكًا من أي وقت مضى، حيث يبدو جليًا أن دول الناتو تلعب دورًا مركزيًا في هذا الصراع الذي يهيمن عليه حسابات الجغرافيا السياسية القديمة التي تشكل على أساسها هذا الحلف.
الإطار المفاهيمي والنظري للتماسك الأسري – التشريع العراقي نموذجا

Published: January 2025

يشكل القانون انعكاسا للقيم والعادات في المجتمع، فالمشرع يتأثر بهذه القيم والعادات، ويتجلى هذا التأثر في نصوص قانونية صريحة، وتعد الروابط والصلات العائلية والأسرية بين أفراد الأسرة الواحدة من بين هذه القيم وذلك للحفاظ على التَماسك الأسري، لذلك نجد المشرع الجزائي يقيم لصلة القرابة التي تربط الجاني بالمجني عليه وزناً عن طريق رعاية الاول كي لا تكون حماية الثاني على حساب هذه الصلة، توفير الحِماية الجنائِية للتَماسك الأسري، لكفالة الحفاظ على الاستقرار العائلي ضمن الأسرة الواحدة، فرابطة القرابة وما يتصل بها من علاقات ومشكلات انسانية واجتماعية وقانُونية هي محور بحث وتفكير العديد من المفكرين في شتى نواحي الحياة ذلك أنها تُعد تاريخياً ومنطقياً نواة المُجتَمع.
لكن هذا التدخل من قبل المشرع الجنائي وتحديدا قانون العقوبات في العلاقات الأسرية أثار ردود افعال متنوعة، لأن المسائل الأسرية من أكثر المسائل خصوصية، وهناك من نادى بأن يكون التدخل التَشرِيعي ضئيلاً لأن الأسرة هي الملاذ الآمن للحياة الخاصة للأفراد، ولكن عندما تصبح الأسرة ميداناً للاعتداءات المختلفة على المال والسلامة الجسدية والنفسية فأن المجتمع بأسره الذي يجب تعبئته.
الامر الذي استتبع ضرورة العمل من قبل المشرع العراقي على تعديل بعض مواد من قانون العقوبات النافذ والمعدل، وذلك بتشديد العقوبة الى الحد الذي يتناسب مع جميع المصالح الواردة في النص على سبيل المثال.
A Comprehensive Analysis of the Implementation of Government Procurement Law in Metro Manila: Basis for Good Governance among Local Government Units
Authors:   Rizal Technological University, Manlapas Omar , Mantillas Christopher ,   Polytechnic University of the Philippines
Published: January 2025

Public procurement is a standard procedure for the government to buy products and services and develop infrastructure projects. Rigid procurement benefits northern hemisphere nations like the European Union (EU). In Australia, they use “Commonwealth Procurement Rules” to get value for money by strengthening local capabilities and skills (Allen, 2020). In a comparative study, Asia outperformed Africa in all parameters except voice, accountability, and procurement complaint handling. (Amankwa & Tetteh, 2022). This research evaluated the three (3) Highly Urbanized Cities based on their scores on four (4) pillars: Economic Dynamism, Government Efficiency, Infrastructure, Resiliency, and Innovation. (Manila, Pasay, and Quezon City) on how well they follow the procurement law’s procedures. Its secondary objective is to identify these LGUs’ obstacles while trying to carry out the procurement legislation. The researcher used a mixed-methods study design and anchored it in Marketization by Christopher Hood in 1991, and the Good Governance Concept, developed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in 2023. Also, it was found out that the Local Government Units (LGUs) demonstrated the praiseworthy proactive initiatives implemented by cities in Metro Manila, which might serve as a model for replication by other LGUs. Moreover, the government should consider allocating a significant proportion of the yearly budget to ICT modernization for long term investment. This investment aims to respond to core principles of Good Governance such as efficient and effective implementation. Also, addressing the sustainability concerns will secure online procurement platforms and cost-efficiency for suppliers and procurement agencies.

Nakatuon ang pananaliksik sa paggalugad ng naging proseso sa pagpili ng mga artikulong nailathala ng Dalumat E-Journal (DEJ) ng Networked Learning PH mula 2010 hanggang 2022. Naging inspirasyon ng nasabing pag-aaral ang paggalugad ni Eilene Narvaez ukol sa kabuuang proseso ng pagpili sa Salita ng Taon. May disenyong Mixed Method ang nasabing pananaliksik. Sinuri ng mananaliksik ang lahat ng artikulong nasa opisyal na website ng Philippine E-Journals. Gamit ang Critical Discourse Analysis, nagkaroon ng pagkakataon ang mananaliksik na suriin at basahin ang lahat ng salik na nakaaapekto sa pagpili ng mga artikulong nailathala sa DEJ gaya ng paraan ng pagsulat ng pamagat, introduksiyon, at wakas. Idinagdag din dito ang pagsusuri sa kaligiran ng mga kontribyutor maging ang pagbusisi sa bibliyograpiya ng mga artikulong nailathala ng DEJ. Sa kabuuan, mainam pa ring pagnilayan ng mga mambabasa man o nais na maging kontribyutor ang mga rekisitios bago makapagsulat— ang pagbasa, pagsulat, at paglalathala. Higit pa rito, malaking tulong na magkaroon ng malalim na kamalayan ang mga mambabasa, mga mananaliksik, at mga mamamayang Filipino tungkol sa kahalagahan ng intelektuwalisasyon ng wikang Filipino. Marapat na maunawaang nakasalalay lamang din sa mga gumagamit ang katuparan nito. Makikitang hindi man madali ang proseso ng intelektuwalisasyon, malaking tulong pa rin ang maliliit na hakbang gaya ng paglalathala ng pananaliksik gamit ang sariling wika at konteksto ng bansa upang maisakatuparan ito.
When South Meets South: A Case of African-Philippines Treaty Relations
Authors:   University of San Agustin, Iloilo, Sinco Noel
Published: January 2025

The African-Philippines Relations connected through the manifestation of bilateral agreements with the respective African States with Egypt obtaining the most of it. The World Bank (2023) established the Small States Forum (SSF) mostly composed of the African States. The Philippines and specific African States share surprising similarities that qualify them as Small States under the World Bank (2023) definition. Sadly, the Philippines did not give enough attention to increase its African diplomatic base. The study mainly aims to analyze the depth of Philippine Relations with these African Small States and what diplomatic instruments these two states connect. The study found that Small States in Africa namely Gabon (4) and The Gambia (3) obtained the most bilateral agreements with the Philippines. Twenty-five (25) agreements are in the forms of Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) or Treaty. With these findings in mind, the researcher concludes that the Philippine Foreign Policy Realities should be revisited to also include Africa as one of its increased establishment of diplomatic networks as in Middle Eastern States like Saudi Arabia. Despite that, these African States only began their diplomatic approach with the Philippines with non-binding instruments (MOUs) and no follow-up documents to upgrade their ties. Having seen their similar nature and issues, it is only imperative that the Philippine Foreign Policy should give more focus on the continent of Africa as a whole as a Small State to assert its good relations with the family of nations.

This research sought to understand the lived experiences of OFW fathers in transnational fathering and explore their motivations and the decision making process that resulted in their intention and willingness to work abroad despite having to leave their children behind. This study also aimed to describe their ideal construct of a father and how they negotiate this construct with their actual experiences as an OFW father. Nine (9) OFW fathers were interviewed regarding their experiences as OFWs who practice fathering from a distance. In agreement with the premises of Lee’s theory of migration, the OFW father’s decision to work overseas despite leaving their children behind was revealed to have been influenced by the disadvantageous conditions in the Philippines and personal factors as well. The study found that OFW fathers’ construction of fatherhood is a mixture of role expectations derived from both traditional and “new” fatherhood discourses. Some of the role expectations in this construction of an ideal father, however, prove to be unattainable because of the transnational nature of their parental engagement. As a result, to maintain and reconfirm their identity, they tend to restructure their practices, further internalizing a more contemporary version of a father. Finally, the study illustrates some facets of the labor migration experience among OFW fathers and its implications for their families.

Background: Surgeons frequently experience work-related musculoskeletal pain, which is a prevalent problem. This study aims to evaluate the patterns of musculoskeletal pain among a group of Sudanese surgeons. Methodology: This study utilized a cross-sectional survey design, in which 84 volunteers residing in the city of El-Obeid, located in the Northern Kordofan state, participated. We randomly selected contributors between May 2024 and June 2024, without taking into account their age or gender. Results:  About 65.5% of the subjects, consisting of 75% females and 63% males, reported experiencing lower back pain. 43% of individuals reported experiencing neck pain, with 37.5% being women and 44% being men. The study found that males have a higher risk of experiencing neck pain. We calculated the relative risk (RR) to be 1.250, with a 95% confidence range (95%CI) of 0.501-3.122. A quarter of the participants, specifically 37.5% of females and 22% of males, reported experiencing shoulder pain. The likelihood of experiencing shoulder pain is slightly higher in females compared to males, with a relative risk (RR) of 1.178 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.880–1.576). Conclusion: Musculoskeletal discomfort is common among surgeons of various specialties in Sudan. The most often reported musculoskeletal pain was lower back, neck, and shoulder discomfort.

Background: In the Philippines, family planning (FP) service delivery is an integral part of the roles expected of community health workers who are at the forefront of primary health care delivery, especially among the underprivileged. District 2, Quezon City has the highest concentration of informal settlers in the country.

Objective: To determine the factors that significantly affect FP service delivery by community health workers in District 2, Quezon City, Philippines

Design: Cross-sectional study

Setting: All community health workers in the 11 health centers in the District during the periods of April to September 2013

Measurements: The authors conducted primary quantitative and qualitative data collection on selected factors found in previous studies to be significantly correlated with contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR), the performance target measure for FP service delivery. Bivariate analysis and multiple regression were used to establish associations between the variables and CPR. Thematic clustering was used to extract themes and generate hypotheses for possible reasons on the strength of associations. Because the whole population of community health workers was sampled, confidence intervals and p-values were not reported and all associations were assumed to be significant.

Results: Four factors reported moderate level of association with CPR: FP training received (r = 0.40), allowances received (r = 0.55), satisfaction with incentives (rs = 0.46), and age (r = -0.44). Multiple regression showed that these four variables account for 26% of the variation in CPR. For every unit increase in FP training (hours), allowance received (pesos), and rating higher in satisfaction with incentives, there is an increase of 2.85, 0.11, and 2.31 CPR percentage points, respectively. For every decrease in one year of age, there is an increase of 1.07 CPR percentage points.

Limitations: Although the questionnaire was pretested and based on previous studies, data collection was prone to recall bias. There was no other available source of secondary data during the conduct of the study. The researchers informally confirmed some of the qualitative data from focus group discussions through interviews with supervisors and local leaders, and observation by the researchers themselves.

Conclusions: The factors that have moderate impact on FP service delivery are FP training, allowances, satisfaction with incentives, and age. The authors recommend that the local health department increase training sessions, increase allowances and other benefits, and encourage younger people to be community health workers.
Association between Social Determinants of Health and Glycemic Control in an Inner City Primary Care Population
Authors: Diaz del Carpio Roberto O. , Stewart Scott H.
Published: January 2025

Background: Diabetes is among the 10 leading causes of death in the U.S. Effective disease management comprised of medical care, self-management education, and ongoing diabetes support is key to improving quality of life and reducing acute and long-term complications. Evidence suggests that social determinants of health acting through social support, neighborhood quality, and physical activity influence diabetes prevention, management, and outcomes. The Chronic Illness Resource Survey (CIRS) is a reliable and valid instrument for assessing support and resources for chronic disease management and is based on a multi-level socio-environmental model. We conducted this study to assess the relationship between social resources as estimated by CIRS subscales and glycemic control in our urban safety-net clinic to identify specific types of support that are associated with glycemic control.

Methods: Adult patients (n= 104) with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes were recruited from an academic urban safety-net clinic in Buffalo, New York. Eligible patients were approached during a regularly scheduled clinic appointment while waiting for their provider. Average hemoglobin A1c values were compared between subjects with values above and below the median for each CIRS subscale. The age and BMI-adjusted relative risks for having a hemoglobin A1c value >7% were also estimated for each subscale.

Results: In this sample having established medical care, lower neighborhood support was associated with elevated A1c (OR: 3.10, 95% CI 1.39 to 6.90). Social determinants related to support from family and friends, community organizations, personal factors, and media and policy were not associated with A1c. Exploration of individual items in the neighborhood support subscale suggested that social interaction with neighbors were particularly associated with diabetes control.

Conclusions: A higher level of neighborhood support and greater interaction with neighbors in patients from an inner city primary care clinic was associated with better glycemic control. Future research will evaluate how neighborhood support influences self-management behaviors, and how self-management behavior may be modified by increased social interactions with neighbors.
