Women’S History

This essay describes an oral history project that accompanied the establishment of an archive on the history of recent feminism in the region of Emilia-Romagna, Italy. The archive, which contains both written and oral historical sources, is now in existence at the library of the Bologna’s Women’s Center, the Centro di Documentazione delle Donne. Raffaella Lamberti (1989) has explained why it was politically important for the Women’s Center to establish such an archive. It should be noted that the Centro di Documentazione, since it was officially proposed in March 1982, has been a totally independent institution, although it draws financial and administrative support from the Regional Administration of Emilia-Romagna.

The Health Belief Model

This historical cohort study investigated whether dimensions of the expanded Health Belief Model (HBM), the theoretical framework most applicable to the Women's Center Jamaica Foundation (WCJF) Program for Adolescent Mothers, can be applied to predict the occurrence of repeat pregnancies among teen mothers. A random sample ( n = 260) of primiparous Jamaican adolescent mothers 16 years and under who gave birth in 1994 in the parishes of Kingston & St. Andrew, St. Catherine, and Manchester was selected from vital records and interviewed in 1998 for this study. Multivariate analyses indicated that in addition to WCJF program participation, perceived severity, perceived susceptibility, and perceived benefits were significant ( p < .05) independent predictors of repeat pregnancy. We recommend the HBM as a useful tool to identify participants who are more likely to experience one or more repeat pregnancies.
