'Relational of Female in Low-Skilled Jobs in ' - an article in 'Zanj: The Journal of Critical ' by Pluto Journals on : scienceopen.com/hosted-documen

ScienceOpenRelational Well-being of Female Workers in Low-Skilled Jobs in Ethiopia<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d5717520e149">With the expansion of global production networks (GPNs) in Africa, more women are becoming employed in low-skilled and labor-intensive jobs. Most studies on workers in GPNs focus on work conditions and their impact on production and network effectiveness, while placing less emphasis on the relational well-being of local industrial workers. Employing a relational well-being approach that considers the multiple dimensions of people’s lives (the material, subjective, and relational), we explore how female workers experience their well-being in foreign-owned flower and apparel sectors operating in Ethiopia. Based on in-depth interviews with thirty-nine female employees, we find that women value the different types of social relationships they have. Coworkers, friends, family, and members of the broader community are important for the women’s well-being, supporting them materially and subjectively, and enabling them to cope with work and life difficulties. Relationships with supervisors and employers, however, can negatively impact well-being, especially through the stress they can cause, while the social and political environment also has a negative effect on overall well-being. </p>

#ScientificAmerican: In the Quantum Realm, Time’s Arrow Might Fly in Two Directions.

❛❛ the researchers’ work suggests that two time’s arrows, rather than one, are a spontaneous feature of an open #quantum system.

The new work adds to some interesting questions about what #physicists deem relevant in their #studies of #time. ❜❜

Scientific American · Does Time Work Differently in the Quantum Realm?By Gayoung Lee

I want to get better at discerning good sources from bad. I'd also like to help other people do the same.

Does anyone out there have any suggestions on approachable ways to learn to read #scientific #studies and other technical material and also ensure they are properly peer reviewed, have good #methodologies, etc?

I'd like to be able to read studies without having to have my masters or doctorate in the subject and feel comfortable that I'm reading real science. #askFedi #science
