Facing Structural Inequality: Students' Orientation to Oppression and Practice with Oppressed Groups
Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between social work students' views on oppression and their willingness to serve and advocate for oppressed populations. The sample included students from 3 accredited programs in a southeastern state in the United States, 1 large urban-based public university with BSW and MSW programs, and 2 small, rural, faith-based institutions with BSW programs. A typology of 4 categories was used for the study. Findings have pertinence for the social work profession as it continues to explicate its moral obligation as a service provider and for social work education as it suggests the further development of a curriculum model that relates to the principles of structural justice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
