Astha Ramaiya Co-author Article in Journal of Adolescence

The article, led by Linnea Zimmerman examines how opportunity structures (parental influence and neighborhood context) affects individual agency among boys and girls in Kinshasa, DRC. We used longitudinal data to identify three distinct groups for boys and girls in each domain. Parental monitoring was associated with the development of both domains for boys, but showed no association for girls. Conversely, parental closeness was more strongly associated with development for girls, than for boys. Neighborhood safety was associated with greater Voice and Freedom of Movement for both boys and girls.

Gadgets, technologies and media are increasingly becoming part of our digital bodies and, with increased technology-mediated governance and policy responses informed by ‘big data', there is a pertinent need that data governance frameworks be informed through an intersectional feminist perspective focused on embodiment.
