Picking up good vibrations: Discrepant vibrator use, sexual functioning, and sexual well-being in women with male partners

ABSTRACT Vibrator use is thought to be associated with positive sexual functioning for women with female or male partners. Vibrator use that is discrepant across contexts (i.e. the individual uses a vibrator in solitary but not partnered contexts), however, has only been examined in women with female partners. Results indicate that women who were discrepant reported lower sexual functioning than women who were non-discrepant (i.e. those who use a vibrator in both solitary and partnered contexts). The current study recruited 488 participants online to examine if discrepant vibrator use was related to sexual functioning, sexual satisfaction, and the perceived balance of sexual rewards to costs (i.e. ratio of preferred to non-preferred aspects of the sexual relationship). There were no observed differences across the groups of women who reported discrepant, non-discrepant, or no vibrator use on sexual functioning domains. Women with non-discrepant vibrator use reported greater sexual satisfaction than those with discrepant use, and they also reported a greater balance of sexual rewards to costs relative to women with discrepant or no vibrator use. The results of this study suggest that discrepant vibrator use is not related to sexual functioning but is related to sexual well-being in women with male partners.
UNDERSTANDING RESILIENCY—THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN USAFA CADET GRIT-S SCORES AND CADET DEVELOPMENT

Life is filled with adversity and no one is excluded from experiencing setbacks, failures, and even catastrophes. But within all people is the potential to learn and bounce back from these experiences. Resiliency theory describes the promotive and protective factors individuals can use to process learn from setbacks and failures and to grow and bounce back from the disruptive adversities that may otherwise break us down. Using the Grit-S survey, which consists of a passion subscore and a resilience subscore, this study focuses on understanding the nature of resilience by analyzing survey responses from over 5,400 cadets from the United States Air Force Academy spanning over nine years. The quantitative analysis of the associations between Grit-S score, passion subscore, and resilience subscore and over 30 different cadet variables including background, current performance, and participation in USAFA teams and programs provided greater understanding into the cadet characteristics that were associated with their grit variable scores. Significantly associated variables unique to the military learning environment at USAFA were discovered and included performance in leadership development, athletics, and participation in a variety of activities and programs which build real-world life skills and present cadets with realistic challenges. The results confirm the statistically and practically significant associations between the grit variables and both academic and non-academic performance in several areas and also suggest there is considerable value in experiencing challenging scenarios outside the classroom.

espanolObjetivos: La presente investigacion tuvo como objetivo adaptar y analizar de manera preliminar las propiedades psicometricas de la Leadership Scale for Physical Education en el contexto espanol de la educacion fisica. Material y metodos: Los participantes fueron 478 (220 chicos y 258 chicas; Medad = 14,15, DTedad = 1,06) estudiantes de secundaria quienes recibian dos clases semanales de educacion fisica obligatoria. Resultados: Los resultados del analisis factorial confirmatorio apoyaron psicometricamente un modelo correlacionado de 4 factores de 12 items, el cual fue invariante por genero. El analisis de fiabilidad mostro valores adecuados para cada factor. El analisis de regresion lineal mostro que el estilo democratico, ensenanza e instruccion y consideracion situacional predijeron positivamente la motivacion autonoma; mientras que el estilo autocratico predijo positivamente la motivacion controlada y desmotivacion. Conclusiones: Se ofrecen evidencias para considerar a la Leadership Scale for Physical Education como una medida valida y fiable de los comportamientos de liderazgo adoptados por el profesorado de educacion fisica durante el proceso de ensenanza-aprendizaje en educacion fisica. EnglishObjective: The current research aimed to adapt and preliminary analyse the psychometric properties of the Leadership Scale for Physical Education in the Spanish Physical Education context. Material and methods: The participants were 478 (220 boys and 258 girls; Mage = 14,15, SDage = 1,06) secondary school students who received two weekly compulsory-Physical Education classes. Results: The results from the confirmatory factor analysis psychometrically supported a 12-item four-factor correlated model, which was invariant across gender. The reliability analysis respectively showed adequate values for each factor. The linear regression analysis displayed that democratic style, teaching and instruction and situational consideration positively predicted autonomous motivation, while autocratic style positively predicted controlled motivation and amotivation. Conclusions: Evidence is provided to consider the Leadership Scale for Physical Education as a valid and reliable instrument to measure leadership behaviour adopted by physical education teachers during the teaching and learning process in Physical Education.
Behavioural Economics or Behavioural Strategies : What Came First? In Search of Behavioural Strategies Background

Background. The paper content concerns the impact of behavioural economics’ phenomena on the ‘behavioural strategies’ construct. The intention of the behavioural strategy concept is to explain how particular managerial behaviour arises in organisations as well as how and through which mechanisms it affects organisational strategies. In turn, behavioural economics (new and old) has been presented as the amalgamation of economics and psychology (cognitive, social, and economic) as well as from the perspective of bounded rationality. Research aims. The aim of the paper is to reconcile behavioural economics issues and a behavioural strategy concept, especially under environmental uncertainty. It has been realised answering three research questions: (1) What are the commonalities between the behavioural strategy concept and behavioural economics? , (2) What is the behavioural economics influence on the behavioural strategy concept? , and (3) What are the potential linkages between particular behavioural economics phenomena and managerial behaviour under uncertainty? Methodology. Extensive literature and research studies review. Key findings. The most general key finding of the theoretical framework assuming to reconcile behavioural economics issues and a behavioural strategy concept, especially under environmental uncertainty, is that the behavioural economics phenomena constitute the antecedents of behavioural strategies that influence managerial decisions under uncertain conditions – particular implications and propositions have been revealed. Moreover, it has been concluded that it is worth incorporating those antecedents in behavioural strategies research to help develop that emerging field.
‘English or Swedish please, no Dari!’ – (trans)languaging and language policing in upper secondary school’s language introduction programme in Sweden

ABSTRACT This article examines multilingual interactions in an upper secondary Language Introduction Programme (LIP) classroom in Sweden. The LIPs, highly affected by both glocal linguistic and cultural diversity and the monolingual-monocultural habitus of the surrounding society, offer recently arrived immigrant youth (ages 16–19) education where emphasis is on the majority language of the surrounding society, Swedish, but where teaching can also include other subjects. The study stems from a larger ethnographically framed project, which aims at both creating new knowledge on translanguaging as a pedagogical practice as well as contributing to school development. The paper has a threefold focus. First, it examines everyday multilingual languaging among the participants. Second, it discusses their doing of language policy from a practiced perspective. Third, it reflects upon the implementation process of translanguaging as a pedagogical practice. Data in the study includes video and audio recordings of classroom interactions, fieldnotes, literacy and interview data. Micro-analyses of interactional data are employed in order to discuss the ways in which students and teachers engage in (trans)languaging and language policing processes. Finally, the tension between seeking to teach and learn through linguistic diversity and participants’ understandings of what kind of languaging is appropriate is critically reflected upon.
The Role of Mass Media as a Socialisation Agent in Shaping Behaviour of Primary School Pupils in Thika Sub-County, Kenya

Children learn better when they socialise with items, tools and people in their environment. Provision of creative fun-filled environment boosts children’s learning. Lack of a good socialising environment may affect a child’s growth and development. The main goal of this study was to assess the role of mass media as a socialisation agent in shaping pupils’ behaviour in primary schools in Thika Sub-County, Kenya. The study was guided by Albert Bandura’s Imitative Observation Theory. This theory indicates that behaviour depicted by others is easily imitated by young children. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. The target population comprised of 69 head teachers, 570 teachers, 3256 pupils and one Sub County Education officer. The study applied Gay Principle to determine the sample size of 7 head teachers, 57 teachers and 35 primary school pupils. Simple random sampling was applied to select the respondents who participated in the study. The main research instrument was the questionnaire. Data was analysed descriptively using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. The study found that majority (88.0%) of the teachers agreed that their pupils had access to mass media in form of television and Internet based media. The study noted only a very small proportion of children did not have access to mass media at home. The study concluded that at home, most children spend most of their time listening to radio, watching television programmes, or playing video games. The study recommends that parents must exercise control on the choice and exposure of their children to mass media.
Human Becoming: Death Acceptance Facilitated Communication With Low–English Proficiency Patients at End of Life

Acceptance is a human experience inextricably intertwined with end-of-life decisions. There is a paucity of research that describes communication patterns among nurses, patients, and caregivers during palliative discussions. However, a successful outcome of communication strategies during shared decisions is an enhanced understanding of patient’s lived experiences. The Parse theory of human becoming was used as a framework to acquire knowledge about acceptance and its connection to death and quality of life. The theory of human becoming is then discussed as a theoretical framework to inform future nursing practice and research regarding facilitated communication with low–English proficiency Hispanic patients at end of life. The purpose of this article was to bridge the theory-to-practice gap in palliative care.
Pre- and in-service education professionals facing religious diversity and interreligious dialogue in Catalonia

ABSTRACT Education professionals, and especially those in secondary education, are key players in enabling intercultural and interreligious dialogue. However, it is worth asking whether educational actors are in fact adequately trained to address the serious responsibilities and challenges represented by the participatory democratisation of public religious life. On the basis of a survey (n = 849), we analysed views on religious beliefs and interreligious dialogue among teacher-managers in secondary schools (n = 275; 59% state schools, 40% public-private schools) and future socioeducational actors (n = 574) studying at four Catalan universities. The findings revealed that these pre- and in-service education professionals held varying opinions and attitudes. Their views tended to be favourable towards diversity and dialogue, mostly coinciding with Knitter’s mutuality model, but generational differences were observed, and different standpoints emerged with respect to religious beliefs and interreligious dialogue. The survey outcomes yielded a range of different profiles. In-service professionals had a moderate profile with regard to religious beliefs and dialogue, while among students two distinct profiles were identified: one representing a more open-minded, tolerant and progressive attitude towards religious diversity and interreligious dialogue, and another which included belief in absolute truths stemming from one’s own beliefs.
Relationship between personality traits and career decision making self-efficacy among male and female undergraduates in Malaysia

The Malaysia Government projected to train 4,808,400 employees in engineering and other fields by the year 2020. However, the pre-plan has been truncated by gender career preference, imbalance and mismatch due to lack of a model for career counsellors to use as a guide for students in career choice making based on their personality traits and gender. This study determined the relationship that exists between personality traits and career decision making self-efficacy among male and female undergraduates in Malaysia. The quantitative research design of this study used TAJMA Personality Profile 2nd Edition (TPP2) and Career Decision Making Self-Efficacy Short Form (CDMSE-SF). 281 participants comprising 102 males and 73 females from Faculty of Electrical Engineering and 25 males and 81 females from Faculty of Management, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, participated in the study. Seven research questions were raised and answered; while six hypotheses were also tested at 0.05 significant level. Data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science (IBM SPSS version 21.0) and Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS version 22). The data were analysed descriptively with percentages, mean and standard deviation while the inferential statistics were analysed using t-test, correlation and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). To identify the dominant personality traits and career decision making self-efficacy levels of the male and female students, the findings showed that the dominant traits include: extroversion, cross-cultural, achievement, integrity and patriotism with exception of the analytical trait which was high for electrical engineering students only, besides showing a significant difference between male and female students. In general, there was no significant difference in career decision making self-efficacy among male and female students except for electrical engineering students who had more confidence in self-appraisal, goal-selection and planning. Based on the findings, a Structural Equation Model that shows positive significant relationship between personality traits and career decision making self-efficacy was developed. The model also shows that positive relationship exist between gender and career decision making; while negative relationship exists between personality traits and gender. It is recommended that the model be used by career counsellors and University management in the selection of students’ careers.
Beyond the walls: the mentally ill in Ireland outside the institutions in 1901

Objectives Ireland’s rates of psychiatric institutionalisation increased rapidly throughout the 1800s and early 1900s. This paper provides a systematic analysis of individuals with mental illness who were not resident in psychiatric hospitals, workhouses or other institutions in 1901. Methods We examined the online census records of all individuals described as ‘lunatics’ on the island of Ireland, not resident in psychiatric hospitals, workhouses or other institutions on census night, 1901. Results There were 482 individuals described as ‘lunatics’ and not resident in psychiatric hospitals, workhouses or other institutions on 31 March 1901, yielding a point prevalence of 10.6 per 100 000 population. The lowest prevalence (7.8) was in Leinster (possibly owing to provision of workhouses and asylums); the highest prevalence was in Connaught (17.5) (p=0.013). A majority of them (60.4%) were women. Mean age was 45.7 years. In addition, a majority were single (never married) (63.7%); 33.3% of women were married, compared with 14.1% of men (p<0.001). The most common relationship to the head of the household was child (32.8%), although some were boarders or lodgers. The majority were Roman Catholic (82.0%) and could ‘read and write’ (64.5%). Among those for whom ability to speak Irish was recorded, 74.4% spoke both Irish and English. Conclusion There were significant geographical and gender differences within the population recorded in the 1901 census as mentally ill and outside institutions. This group merits further study, especially with regard to their distribution in relation to asylum locations, and the extent to which they were cared for in communities, possibly prefiguring later models of community care.
A STUDY OF GENITAL TRACT ANOMALIES AND REPRODUCTIVE OUTCOME

Mullerian duct malformation delineate a group of congenital anomalies that result from arrested development or incomplete fusion of the mesonephric ducts. Uterine anomalies have been related to infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, prematurity and other obstetric complications which results in raised perinatal mortality and morbidity. These malformations can also be asymptomatic with women having normal reproductive outcome. A suspicion of uterine anomaly should be borne in mind in obstetric complications like non progress of labour, malpresentations and retained placenta. Most of the vaginal abnormalities present with menstrual abnormalities and coital difficulties. The Purpose is to study the reproductive outcome in women with congenital anomalies of Genital tract.
Electromagnetic Scattering from Stacked Gratings 1986

The theory of scattering matrices network analysis are employed to solve scattering from cascaded infinite periodic and microwave the problem of gratings. The total reflection and transmission coefficients are calculated as functions of angle of incidence, wire spacing for each grating, grating separation, wire thickness, and number of gratings that comprise the cascaded structure. Moreover, the problem of stacking dielectric slabs with periodic gratings is formulated and solved. In all cases, the Secant Corrector Spectral Iteration approach is used as a numerical method for calculating the desired currents and fields. Finally, calculated values of the reflection and transmission coefficients are presented and compared with other experimental and theoretical data.

Keywords: brand image, product quality, intention to repurchase
The perception of attachment effect in parents and peers on aggressive behavior in male adolescents

Interaction among children with their parents and peers has an important role in developing aggression in adolescents. Negative interaction can form children’s negative perception of attachment to their parents and peers. In turn, it facilitates adolescent’s negative schemes from childhood to adolescence. Negative scheme children are generally easy to get anxious, difficult to trust another person in interaction, and aggressive. This study aimed to examine the perceptions of attachment effect to their father, mother, and peer on male adolescents' aggressive behaviors. The subjects of this study were 31 adolescents aged 12-15 years old, who lived in PSMP Antasena in Magelang. They were selected through purposive sampling technique. The data were collected using aggressive behavior scale and modification of parents and peer attachment inventory. The method used for analyzing data was multiple regression. The results of the analysis showed that R=0.688, p<0.01, indicating that the perceptions of father, mother and peer attachment significantly can predict aggression in male adolescents.
Experiences of Cross-Racial Trust in Mentoring Relationships Between Black Doctoral Counseling Students and White Counselor Educators and Supervisors

The literature is replete with research and references to racism experienced by Black faculty and students in counselor education. Although explorations of the mistrust in relationships between races is extant, empirical investigations into trusting cross-racial relationships in counselor education have been scarce. To address this void, the researchers conducted a phenomenological qualitative study with 10 Black doctoral counseling students concerning their experiences of cross-racial trust with White counselor educators and clinical supervisors who were mentors. Researchers identified three superordinate themes during data analysis: reasons for trust, reasons for mistrust, and benefits of cross-racial mentoring. The researchers also identified several themes and subthemes that delineated the interpersonal and intrapersonal factors that helped generate cross-racial trust, despite participants’ ubiquitous experiences of racism. The participants’ experiences are discussed, and implications are offered for enhancing trust in cross-racial relationships in mentoring, supervision, counseling, and training programs.
