IWS Documented News Service _______________________________ Institute for Workplace Studies-----------------Professor Samuel B. Bacharach School of Industrial & Labor Relations--------Director, Institute for Workplace Studies Cornell University 16 East 34th Street, 4th floor----------------------Stuart Basefsky New York, NY 10016-------------------------------Director, IWS News Bureau ________________________________________________________________________ The Washington Post/Kaiser Family Foundation/Harvard University African American Men Survey [4 June 2006] http://www.kff.org/kaiserpolls/upload/7526.pdf [full-text, 39 pages] Press Release -- Washington Post/Kaiser Family Foundation/Harvard African-American Men Survey http://www.kff.org/kaiserpolls/7526.cfm The Washington Post, the Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University have released a new, comprehensive survey looking at how African-American men view their lives in the United States and their outlook for the future. The survey gauges the views and experiences of African-American men on marriage and family, education, careers and health, among other issues, and includes comparisons to the views and experiences of African-American women and white men and women. The African-American Men Survey is the 15th survey in a series generated under a three-way partnership between The Washington Post, the Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University. The three organizations work together to pick the survey topics, design the survey instruments and analyze the results. The survey's findings were published in the June 4, 2006, edition of The Washington Post. This survey was conducted by telephone from March 20 to April 29, 2006, among 2,864 randomly selected adults nationwide, including: 1,328 black men; 507 black women; 437 white men and 495 white women. Results for total respondents have been weighted so that black respondents are represented in proportion to their actual share of the population. Margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points for results based on all respondents or black men, 5 percentage points for black women and 6 percentage points for white men or women. Hispanics and Asians were interviewed along with white and black respondents, but because of the relative size of those populations, there were not enough respondents to break out separately. The complete survey results and detailed methodology description are available in the toplines document. -- Eugene McElroy Rutgers University School of Management and Labor Relations Library 50 Labor Center Way New Brunswick, New Jersey 08901 tel: 732-932-9513 ******** Desconfiem e se afastem dos individuos que adulam os poderosos e pisoteiam os desprotegidos.
