It investigates the psychological conditions of these children and determines how to reintegrate them into mainstream socio-economic activities. The book proposes cures and preventive measures. It also highlights the inextricable link which exists between street children and youth problem, and economic underdevelopment within Sub-Saharan Africa. With a careful examination of the main reasons of poverty and weak institutions within the region, the book offers suggestions on how to prevent street children and youth problem by alleviating poverty through a vibrant industrial sector and economic development. This book also provides recommendations on how to cure the problem by creating social enterprises which can offer opportunities to the youth and their parents. It achieves this by first comparing children and youth on the street (those who have homes to return to at night), with children and youth of the street (those who both work and live on the street). It then looks at a project designed to boost the resilience of street children. By looking at the differences between children on the street and children of the street, the book highlights the importance of having a home, and of the great value of cooperation between churches, non-government organizations and the state, in working to make the lives of these young people better. This book is a useful resource for students, academics and researchers in the fields of psychology, social work, sociology, and international development. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Psychology,$x2192-8363 606 $aWell-being 606 $aChildren 606 $aChild psychology 606 $aSchool psychology 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aYouth in development 606 $aChild Well-being$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X31000 606 $aChild and School Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y12040 606 $aDevelopment and Children$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913090 615 0$aWell-being. 615 0$aChildren. 615 0$aChild psychology. 615 0$aSchool psychology. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aYouth in development. 615 14$aChild Well-being. 615 24$aChild and School Psychology. 615 24$aDevelopment and Children. 676 $a362.7086942 700 $aSanji$b Walters Mudoh$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0766136 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298065303321 996 $aResilience and the Re-integration of Street Children and Youth in Sub-Saharan Africa$91558334 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05571oam 2200433I 450 001 9910971521703321 005 20251117103558.0 010 $a1-351-28879-2 010 $a1-351-28880-6 010 $a1-351-28878-4 024 7 $a10.4324/9781351288804 035 $a(CKB)3840000000339654 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5228807 035 $a(OCoLC)1004108383 035 $a(EXLCZ)993840000000339654 100 $a20180706d2017 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aElectronic Databases and Publishing /$fAlbert Henderson 205 $aFirst edition. 210 1$aLondon :$cTaylor and Francis,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (253 pages) $cillustrations, tables 311 08$a1-56000-967-5 311 08$a1-138-52274-0 327 $apart, 14 Statistics of RILM: Répertoire International de Littérature Musicale -- chapter 1 Database Publishing Statistics -- chapter 2 Secondary Information Services?Mirrors of Scholarly Communication: Forces and Trends -- chapter 3 Resources for Research and Learning: The Databases of the Research Libraries Group -- chapter 4 The OCLC Online Union Catalog: An Incomparable Library Resource -- chapter 5 EMBASE?The Excerpta Medica Database: Quick and Comprehensive Drug Information -- chapter 6 Growth and Change in the World's Biological Literature as Reflected in BIOSIS Publications -- chapter 7 Secondary Publishing in Changing Times: Profile of Cambridge Scientific Abstracts -- chapter 8 Documenting the World's Sociological Literature: Sociological Abstracts -- chapter 9 Evolution and Revolution at PAIS: Technology and Concepts -- chapter 10 The History and Scope of the American Economic Association's EconLit and the Economic Literature Index -- chapter 11 INFO-SOUTH: Leading the Way on the Information Superhighway to Latin America and the Caribbean -- chapter 12 AgeLine Database on Middle Age and Aging: Reflecting Population Diversity -- chapter 13 Statistics of Historical Abstracts and America: History and Life Databases -- chapter 15 Trends in Courses Taught: Insights from CMG's College Faculty Database -- chapter 16 Statistical Analysis of the TULSA Database, 1965-1994 -- chapter 17 A Brief History of the Abstract Bulletin of the Institute of Paper Science and Technology -- chapter 18 Growth of the Computing Literature as Reflected in the Computing Information Directory, 1981-1995 -- part, 19 Library of Congress Cataloging in Publication Program -- chapter 20 The National Technical Information Service (NTIS) Bibliographic Database -- chapter 21 Calculators and Crystal Balls: Predicting Journal Subscription Prices -- chapter 22 Monitoring the Health of North America's Small and Mid-Sized Book Publishers Since 1980 -- chapter 23 National Federation of Abstracting and Information Services Member Data Services -- chapter 24 Growth and Change of the World's Chemical Literature as Reflected in Chemical Abstracts -- chapter 25 A Brief History of the Mathematical Literature -- chapter 26 From Published Paper to MR Review: How Does It Happen? -- chapter 27 The PASCAL and FRANCIS Databases of the Institut de l'Information Scientifique et Technique (France): Presentation and Statistics -- chapter 28 Information Access Company: The Evolution of InfoTrac Multi-Source Databases and Their Importance to Library End-Users. 330 $a"The true pioneers in electronic publishing put their bibliographic databases on tape and online in the 1960s. Nearly all of them had long experience with compiling information for distribution in printed form and a strong market connection. As a result of Soviet advances in science and space technology, American government support for information science and academic libraries flowed freely for a little over a decade, making possible tremendous advances in technology, in retrieval techniques and in sophisticated coverage. Advances in information technology and market conditions have encouraged many more participants to underwrite the development of databases that now extend into the arts, social sciences, business, and popular interests. These essays show how production statistics accompanied by statements of editorial coverage provide a fairly accurate reflection of output of many of the major disciplinary bibliographic databases. The urgent priority of information resources in the 1960s has encouraged comprehensive servicing of the formal research literature as published in journals and monographs. Authors have counted subject words, languages, origins, types of publication, and so on over several decades. This volume also includes articles on some databases that are not strictly bibliographic, such as the CMG database of college courses, which illuminates some of the changes in college textbook publishing. Information seekers will find the many tables of practical use, as guidance to what and how much may be found within each database. Analysts of publishing, of science policy, and of higher education will find information relevant to expenditures, human resources, and other indicators of education, research, and technology activity."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aMachine-readable bibliographic data 615 0$aMachine-readable bibliographic data. 676 $a025.316 700 $aHenderson$b Albert$01882589 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971521703321 996 $aElectronic Databases and Publishing$94497893 997 $aUNINA
