Abstract:
The conceptual orientation of this study was informed by social ecology theory coupled with the concept of rural place, to investigate social processes embedded within the physical, social and symbolic environment affecting the health of rural grandmothers raising grandchildren. A modified grounded theory methodology was used to generate a middle range theory explicating the basic social process of rural grandmother-mothering. The Rural Grandmother-Mothering as Cushioning model explains how the rural place experience of the physical, social and perceptual environmental context influences the h

Abstract:
While examining a selection of plays centred on the phenomenon of mothering, my thesis also investigates the interaction between theatre and feminism in post-war Britain, aiming to highlight mutual correspondences between women's theatre making and feminist agendas. I focus mainly on the period of second-wave feminism, but I also discuss the decade preceding the appearance of the Women's Liberation Movement, as well as its aftermath up to the mid-nineties. Scrutinising proto-feminist, feminist and post-feminist stances, I argue that several fifties women dramatists anticipated key concerns of

Abstract:
<p> Maternal influence has been identified as a crucial factor in identifying and predicting if a child will be obese and can influence children's future comorbidities if they are obese. There is a dearth of research focused literature on the mothers' perspectives in caring for a child with obesity. The purpose of this grounded theory study (Glaser &amp; Strauss (1967)) was to identify a process of mothering an obese child. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 12 mothers.

Abstract:
<p> Mothering in a variety of healthcare settings is a significant process studied by nurse researchers. Mothering during recovery from a drug addiction is important to study because of its health and mental health consequences for women, their infants and children, as well as the impact on society especially the financial burden. The process of recovery from drug addiction for mothers has not been well studied. Findings from such a study can shed light on the important nursing role regarding interventions and prevention strategies to mitigate some of the health consequences. The purpose of th

This pro-feminist study aimed at developing an understanding of mothering in the context of domestic violence in contemporary Britain. Despite more than three decades of feminist activism and scholarship in'the field of domestic violence and a broad and detailed understanding of women's experiences of abuse by their intimate partners, little has been written on mothering in this context, particularly from women's experiences. Moreover, a critical evaluation of the literature in the field of domestic violence revealed a tendency to draw upon a deficit model of mothering and to blame abused wome

<p> The position I adopt in this study, aligned with Lyotard (1979), asserts that the master narrative guiding societal and organizational beliefs, values, and knowledge about mothering and work represents a privileged standpoint and does not represent the experiences of mothers of color. Additionally, the master narrative works to harm mothers of color because these women evaluate their own experiences by the expectations and norms generated by the master narrative.

My thesis develops the idea of a 'maternal performativity', harnessing the work of Judith Butler and numerous other feminist theorists, to offer new ways of looking at 1970s and 1980s literary texts by ten German-speaking women writers. In my introduction, I outline previous feminist approaches to mothering, and argue that as yet, maternal agency has not been adequately theorized. The project of theorizing maternal agency is, I contend, vitally important, given the traditional view in Western culture of the mother as passive.

Abstract:
The threats found in horror films change with time, each decade consisting of threats that were most frightening for the time period. Horror film scholars, such as Andrew Tudor, determined that in 1970s horror films the threat has migrated from external forces into the home and the family. Invading aliens and monsters were thrown replaced by psychosis and evil children. This notion of making the familiar unfamiliar and threatening is paralleled in concerns addressed during the second-wave of feminism; women were making the normative and familiar idea of mother unfamiliar as they migrated from

This thesis is about women's experiences of their adult children's home-leaving. It argues that the privileging of the child's shift to adulthood that occurs through their home-leaving occludes the mother's parallel but different transition; her experiences of this time are generally silenced. In consequence, our knowledge regarding the later phase of a mother's life course is extremely limited so that, to date, there remains very little acknowledgement of what mothering means to women once their children achieve the sociocultural status of 'adult' and leave home.
