Racial disparities in accessing health‐care services have worsened in the United States\, exacerbating social and economic inequality between whites and racial/ethnic minority groups. While existing research primarily attributes these disparities to income differences among racial groups\, this study focuses on the mediating role of social capital and the moderating role of public trust in formal institutions\, while controlling for income and other socioeconomic factors. \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nHyunseok Hwang is an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology at Ajou University in South Korea. He received a Ph.D. in sociology and an MPA from Texas A&M University. His academic interests include organization theory\, environmental sociology\, community resilience\, philanthropic studies and social entrepreneurship. His research has an overarching theme of identifying how organizations respond to institutional heterogeneity\, grand societal challenges (i.e.\, massive social and environmental issues) and challenges to organizational sustainability. \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students. These sessions include invited presentations from prominent scholars as well as presentations by PhD students and experts in professional practice.\nFor social capital researchers\, these sessions are an opportunity to hear about the latest social capital research and insights from scholars working on the concept. They can be a great way to connect with people\, to get advice\, discuss ideas or issues\, get suggestions for literature to read\, or you can just listen. \nAre you researching social capital and want to present your research? Click here for more information and to submit a proposal. \nGenerally\, presentations can be 20 to 30 mins. The content of your presentation will depend on your research stage.

While much research has focused on Black college men or broader first-generation populations\, the nuanced realities of Black college women at predominantly White institutions (PWIs) remain understudied. This presentation will share findings from a dissertation study exploring how FGLI Black college women\, who participated in campus fitness programs\, built and accessed social capital within the often exclusionary spaces of higher education. Drawing on Critical Race Theory and Bourdieu’s concept of social capital\, the research revealed both the challenges and triumphs these women faced from racial microaggressions and stereotyping to the creation of powerful support systems through campus counter spaces\, peer groups\, and affirming relationships with staff and administrators. \nWebinar attendees will gain insight into the structural barriers confronting FGLI Black college women\, the transformative impact of culturally relevant support systems\, and practical implications for higher education practitioners\, researchers\, and policymakers looking to promote equity and belonging on college campuses and universities. \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nDr. Sheena Harvey is currently serving as the Director of the Fitness and Recreational Sports (FRS) Department at the University of Nevada\, Reno. She holds a PhD in Education (Equity and Diversity) from the University of Nevada\, Reno. She enjoys researching all components surrounding collegiate fitness\, recreation\, and sports and their pivotal role in supporting student success in higher education. Her dissertation research was focused on first-generation low-income (FGLI) Black college women and their experiences in campus fitness. In this research she is explored the relationship between collegiate fitness programs\, social capital\, social network connections\, while also exploring how race\, gender\, and social class intersects in student participant experiences. Outside of her work in higher education\, she engages in promoting positive community health practices serving on various boards and commissions within her community that help breakdown some of the preconceived notions associated for racially marginalized population health disparities\, and their access to environments to conduct physical activity. Her community work and involvement also include leading youth fitness exercise engagement initiatives and mentorship throughout the Reno/Sparks community. \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students.

You can connect with people\, ask questions\, get advice\, and discuss ideas or issues. \nWho is this for? \nAlthough this workshop is focused on PhD students\, we welcome anyone conducting research on social capital. \nWho will run the workshop? \nBeverly Sloan has a PhD in Organisational Leadership from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She is a veteran of the United States Air Force with more than 32 years of service. Her leisure activity includes mentoring masters and doctoral candidates on research practices. \nHow will the session work? \nIn these sessions\, we aim to discuss the research process. This includes defining research; discussing research significance\, problems\, and purposes; examining your worldview and philosophical stance; developing research questions\, sub-questions\, and hypotheses; and your theoretical or conceptual framework. We will discuss the initial literature review and its purpose in helping you build your initial central research question. We will use the initial research question to guide the preliminary literature review. During the preliminary literature review\, we will consider defining your key concepts and how they will drive your overall literature review. As we discuss the literature review\, the goal is to refine the research question\, identify gaps in the literature\, and focus the literature review on the central aspects of your research question. This should also help us develop a good outline for our literature review and identify variables or sub-research questions. Once we understand how the literature review shapes our study\, we will move on to research methods and design or our roadmap for collecting data. Then we will move on to data analysis and conclude by combining all the pieces. This will not be a linear process\, but it will be a process. \nAccess requirements \nWe seek to make our events accessible\, and this is no exception. If there is something that will help you to engage more effectively in this session\, please email us on: events@intsocialcapital.org. Sometimes\, it’s the small things that make a big difference\, so do email us if you have an access request. We recognise that not all participants are able to attend all sessions for the full duration. You are free to join us and leave at any time during the session. We request that you have your name on Zoom (this can be just a first name) to make it easier for us to facilitate the session and address participants correctly. It helps to have cameras on\, but we recognise that sometimes this isn’t possible\, for a variety of reasons.
