“…(See Hunter & Riger, this issue.) Wellman (1979) and Fischer (1982) have provided a clear basis for addressing these questions and have considered, through network analysis, the role of such variables as mobility, proximity, age, and intimacy of interactions in judging the importance of neighborhoods to different groups.…”

In the context of a larger study focused on the development of an instrument to measure sense of community, respondents were asked to identify components (e.g., family, friends, church, neighborhood) that they believe comprise their community. Initial data analysis suggested a potentially important division between respondents who did and did not include “neighborhood” in their definition of their community. These two groups then were compared on the major variables of the larger study: Actual sense of community, ideal sense of community, community satisfaction, and community competence. Results suggest that respondents with a higher ideal sense of community were significantly less likely to identify “neighborhood” as a component of their community; those whose actual sense of community, community satisfaction, and community competence were higher were significantly more likely to include “neighborhood” among the components. The tendency not to consider one's neighborhood important in assessing ideal sense of community, but, rather, to actually consider it an important feature of one's day‐to‐day sense of community is discussed in light of some suggestions that one's neighborhood has become a less important element in developing or maintaining one's sense of community.

“…Physical distance and functional proximity (Festinger, Schachter, & Back, 1950) and the social climate variable of exploration behavior (Perl & Trickett, 1988) influence friendship choice and network formation, and proximity affects perceived availability of social support (Seeman & Berkman, 1988), and, presumably, the ability to mobilize in a crisis. Urbanicity affects the composition and specialization of function characteristic of social networks (Fischer, 1982) and may well affect networks' capacities to function in' crisis. Wellman (1 981) has underlined the constraints placed on social network forms by the larger society's social and spatial division of labor: He sees the effects of industrialization, bureaucracy, and capitalism as making social support consist more and more of intercorporate rather than interpersonal exchanges.…”

Social integration and social support: Moving “social support” beyond the individual level

Despite the extra‐individual nature of social relationships, social support and social networks have been treated by and large as individual‐level concepts. This article describes some of the forms that an individualistic bias takes in our current approaches to conceptualization and measurement of social support and social networks and suggests three steps towards an extra‐individual treatment of these concepts: (1) expand notions of social support to encompass social integration; (2) examine the role of groups and settings as social network “members”; and (3) explore functional and structural characteristics of social networks as independent and dependent measures.

“…HKUST-1 and its modified forms were observed to be the most effective MOFs in the uptake of KEX in this study. Especially, in the concentration range relevant to the potential application regarding purification of mine waste waters in arctic areas, in which the concentration of xanthates in the waste waters is usually below 10 mg/L. , In higher concentration of KEX, the MOF network collapses, as can be observed in the all the NMR measurements conducted excluding the HKUST-1 with 4-PA. The other studied MOFs were weaker in the uptake of KEX and followed the order mechanochemical MIL-100(Fe) > MIL-100/96(Al) > solvothermal MIL-100(Fe) > UiO-66.…”

Uptake of Ethyl Xanthate to Metal Organic Frameworks

As the mining industry spreads to new areas in the arctic regions, the need for re-useable efficient methods for mine chemicals' recycling increases. Especially in the case of xanthates, which are used as collectors for many metals from ore. Xanthates are very toxic to aquatic life either directly or indirectly and cause potentially severe health problems to humans after long-term exposure. In the present work, potassium ethyl xanthate (KEX) was observed to coordinate into metal organic frameworks (MOFs). HKUST-1 and its post-synthetically modified forms were observed to behave most effectively of the studied MOFs at low concentrations of KEX. Differences in the uptake of KEX were detected regarding the synthesis method in the case of MIL-100(Fe) synthetized by solvothermal and mechanochemical methods. Other studied MOFs, UiO-66 and MIL-100(Al)/MIL-96(Al), were not observed to be effective in KEX uptake.
