On the published record
Article Abstract:
An University of Notre Dame sociology professor discusses her publishing experience. With the exception of one article, she has always rewritten and resubmitted her work to another journal after receiving a rejection but that does not stop her from being unhappy with rejections and questioning the editors' intelligence. She advises all doctoral graduates to publish as much as possible. The professor believes there is a strong element of chance in publishing but that it is very important and so plans to continue submitting her work regardless of her stature in the field.

Defining families through caregiving patterns
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted on the caregiving activities within families and family members to define families in terms of caregiving patterns. Family members that are considered in the study as most in need of help include individuals who are too young or old to care for themselves. Aside from care, aid across family boundaries also involves monetary gifts that enable families to buy care. Results showed that the family that a member can usually count on in times of trouble is the parental family.
