Mental Health and Violence/Trauma in Palestine: Implications for Helping Professional Practice
Authors: Al-Krenawi Alean , Graham John R. , A.Sehwail Mahmud
Published: April 2019

This article analyses 4 case studies of clinical interventions occurring at the Treatment and Rehabilitation Center for Victims of Torture, Ramallah, Palestine. Each family was of Arab background and experienced violence and trauma while living in the West Bank. The impact of the violence was all encompassing. Family functioning was significantly affected, and individuals experienced such problems as psychological trauma, depression, social exclusion, and economic deprivation. Therapy is important to these cases; but long-term solutions are ultimately political.
Conceiving Family Relationships in Post-War Lebanon
Authors: Joseph Suad
Published: April 2019

How family relationships are conceived, both materially and discursively, in the aftermath of war is critical for understanding the processes of construction and reconstruction of the “social” in times of turmoil. The active engagement of families with and response to long-term violence is a trigger for change in the gendered and aged relationships within patriarchal families. Under conditions when the “social” is challenged, social rules are destablized, the expected is less certain, those living the social may see possibilities (for better or for worse) that were not as visible (or extant) previously. The ways in which family members represent family relationships, in these moments, tells a story of emergent changes within families which might not be as evident observationally. Such discourses, which may not correspond to what an anthropologist observes, might be dismissed as misrepresentations or they might be calibrated for later analysis when their meanings are clearer. As family relationships are crucial to social institutions in most Middle Eastern countries, shifts within family relationships have repercussions throughout society. This paper calibrates such registers of emergent change in family relationships in a small village, just east of Beirut, in the immediate aftermath of the cessation of the Civil War which raged in Lebanon from 1975-1990. Discourses of family relationships among the villagers often differed markedly from what I found in my observations among these families. I observed intact families which were intensely involved in each other’s affairs and wellbeing. Family members, however, reported stories of the “family” in crisis in Lebanon. The disparity in my observations and their discourses emerges in part from the fact that I was observing “their” families, while they were talking about “the family” in Lebanon. The intensify of family life I observed may be an expression of their will and efforts to hold on to family relationships as they knew them prior to the war, in the face of challenges to those relationships they saw in the society at large.
Family in War and Conflict: Using Social Capital for Survival in War Tom Cyprus
Authors: Mehmet Karen A. , Mehmet Ozay
Published: April 2019

When a state collapses due to conflict, civilians may no longer be able to rely on state institutions to provide basic human needs such as food, health, housing and employment. Accordingly, people tend to shift from state-provided services toward family-centered forms of social capital that are especially useful as coping mechanisms in crisis situations.

This paper explores the survival strategies of Turkish Cypriot families during the war conditions of 1963/4-74. On the basis of a Key Informant Survey it attempts to empirically document the forms of social capital utilized in wartime. There is a large volume of literature on social capital, but the particular type of social capital of relevance in the Turkish Cypriot case reported below is non-formal type in conditions of war and ethnic conflict.
Parenting Self-Efficacy Among Japanese Mothers
Authors: Holloway Susan D. , Suzuki Sawako , Yamamoto Yoko , Behrens Kazuko Y.
Published: April 2019

International comparisons find that Japanese mothers are generally effective in supporting their children’s social, emotional, and cognitive development. Yet, many appear to lack a sense of efficacy in the role of parent compared to mothers in other industrialized countries. To explore this paradox, we designed a study to examine the following sources of self-efficacy in Japanese mothers: representations of their childhood relationships with mother and father, satisfaction with current social support, and level of education. Participants were 116 Japanese women with children enrolled in the last year of preschool. They participated in an interview and completed a questionnaire. Higher parenting self-efficacy was predicted by a more positive representation of childhood relationships and greater satisfaction with current amount and quality of support by the husband and other relatives. Mother’s level of education was not a significant predictor of self-efficacy. Factors associated with Japanese mothers’ parenting self-efficacy are consistent with theoretical predictions. The construct of parenting self-efficacy appears to be useful in understanding relation dynamics in Japanese families.
Marriage among African American Women: A Gender Perspective
Authors: Hill Shirley A.
Published: April 2019

Research on African American families throughout the twentieth century has focused largely on the prevalence of single-mother families. Much debate has focused on understanding the strengths and weaknesses of these families, yet rarely have scholars sought to analyze the marital decision-making process of Black women. In this paper I provide a gender perspective on the roots of a “non-marriage ethos” among African American women that dates back to the abolition of slavery. I argue that a significant minority of women refused to enter patriarchal marriages because doing so would have jeopardized their cultural traditions, material resources, and autonomy. I also tie this non-marriage ethos to marriage and family among Black women today.
Intergenerational Transmission of Motherhood Patterns: Three Generations of Immigrant Mothers of Moroccan Descent in Israel
Authors: Glassman Irit , Eisikovits Rivka A.
Published: April 2019

Looking at three generations of women of Moroccan descent - mothers who immigrated to Israel in the 1950s and continued to give birth after their arrival; their daughters who came to Israel as children and married there; and their granddaughters who were born in Israel and became mothers in the 1990s - this study examines expressions of intercultural transition in respect to parenting and child rearing. This in order to identify models of motherhood and parental performance in each generation, as well as the intercultural “mix” used in constructing them.$$intercultural transmission of patterns of motherhood; immigrant mothers; Moroccan Jews; changes in role division in immigrant families
The Division of Household Labor in Taiwan
Authors: Hu Chiung-Yin , Kamo Yoshinori
Published: April 2019

In this paper, we examine how the interplay between economic resources and gender may explain the division of household labor in Taiwan, a society with the rich heritage of Chinese culture. As one of the few studies on the division of household labor among married couples in nonwestern settings, our analyses show both the similarities and differences between Taiwanese and American couples. Specifically, we found that men’s share of household labor was explained by their income, education, gender ideology, and the number of children, which is relatively similar to previous findings in the United States. On the contrary, none of the above factors shows significant effects on women’s share of household labor. Instead, we found that higher occupational status decreases women’ share of household labor. Moreover, we found that unemployed husbands share less household labor and women with equal or higher occupational status relative to their spouses perform more household labor in extended families, indicating that couples in these households try to neutralize their unconventional roles through household labor participation.
Marriage Type and Relative Spousal Power in Ghana: Changing Effects of Monogamy During Early Fertility Decline
Authors: DeRose Laurie F.
Published: April 2019

Women in monogamous unions enjoyed more reproductive control than their polygynous counterparts prior to the onset of Ghana’s fertility transition. However, as the transition progressed, men’s relative influence grew, and it grew more in monogamous marriages than in polgynous ones. As men select into monogamy on the basis of lower (but not low) fertility desires, the pressure on their wives to fulfill those desires seems greater. In contrast, junior wives of polygynously married men may be under pressure to cease childbearing; even relatively high fertility goals have dropped enough that they seldom require expending the full reproductive potential of more than one wife. Differences by lineage type are modest, but the influence of matrilineal women decreased during early fertility transition. Even though lower fertility is commonly associated with reproductive autonomy, the subgroups of Ghanaian women having more influence in reproductive decision-making under traditional fertility regimes—the monogamous and also the matrilineal—lost relative power during early fertility transition.
Predictors of Parent Involvement across Contexts in Asian American and European American Families
Authors: Sy Susan R. , Rowley Stephanie J. , Schulenberg John E.
Published: April 2019

This study examines the predictors of parent involvement in 537 Asian American and 12,630 European American parents. Data came from the nationally representative Early Childhood Longitudinal Study - Kindergarten Cohort (ECLS-K), an ongoing study of kindergarten children as they make the transition into and through formal schooling. We used Structural Equation Models (SEM) to examine (1) the influence of parents’ beliefs, expectations, and educational attainment on multiple aspects of parent involvement, and (2) the relationship among multiple aspects of parent involvement across contexts in families of kindergarten children. Results indicated that although Asian American and European American parents may become involved in different ways, the predictors of and relations among different types of parent involvement across contexts are similar.
“New Fatherhood” in Practice: Domestic and Parental Work Performed by Men in France and in the Netherlands
Authors: Devreux Anne-Marie
Published: April 2019

Housework, a traditional topic in research on women and gender, has only recently begun to be studied from the standpoint of men. This article undertakes a comparison between France and the Netherlands, two countries that largely resemble each other from the standpoint of government intervention and the connections between work and family life, but differ in their stated political priorities regarding women and the structuring of women’s employment. This comparison allows the author to reveal trends in the division of domestic labour between the sexes that hold across the board, regardless of particular cultural differences in representations of the roles of men and women in the family. Based on national survey data on “daily timetables”, the analysis shows changes and continuity in men’s involvement in housework, first as regards the male population as a whole, and then fathers in particular. The study brings out preferences for doing housework rather than parental work among fathers in France but not in the Netherlands. These preferences are linked to a change in social representations of domestic and parental tasks that have assigned new and different values to these tasks depending on whether or not they are performed by men. “New fatherhood” appears in any case to be an image with an ideological function more than a reality in practice, at least when the objective criterion used is the amount of time spent on the daily tasks of domestic life.
Changing Social Expectations for Work and Family Involvement Among Korean Fathers
Authors: Kwon Young In , Roy Kevin M.
Published: April 2019

In this study, we explore the gap between the culture and conduct of paternal involvement with children among Korean middle-class and workingclass fathers. Using interview data from thirtytwo fathers following a period of national economic crisis, we find that Korean fathers negotiated among three contradictory and often ambiguous sets of cultural expectations: traditional Confucian fatherhood; work success as measure of good fatherhood; and "new" fatherhood that embraces providing and caregiving roles. Family involvement was limited for all fathers, although care for children was most directly shaped by strict or flexible working schedules. Middle class and working class fathers used different strategies to reduce the gap between conflicting cultural expectations for paternal caregiving and low levels of actual involvement with children, including delayed fatherhood, lowered expectations, and segregated roles.
Gender Differentials in Household Structure and Socioeconomic Characteristics in South Africa
Authors: Dungumaro Esther W.
Published: April 2019

This study used the 2002 South Africa General Household Survey (GHS) to explore differentials in household structures and socioeconomic characteristics. Household structures by gender of head were examined to inform the types of household that females are more likely to head compared to males. The study found that females are more likely to form extended households than males. Household size in female headed households was also found to be larger than that in male headed households. The study utilized principal component analysis to estimate wealth of households. Wealth estimate results indicated that female headed households are poorer than male headed households. However, comparison between female headed households in urban areas and male headed households in rural areas indicated that the former were better off than the latter. The study recommends that governments should assist poor female headed households. Furthermore, the study cautions that generalization of poverty among female headed households should be avoided as it can mislead the policy formulation and subsequent interventions.
Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) in Zambia: An Examination of Risk Factors and Gender Perceptions
Authors: Klomegah Roger Y.
Published: April 2019

Abuse of women has reached epidemic proportions in Africa and the literature has revealed that, internationally, between 10% and 52% of women experience this phenomenon. This study examines some social risk factors associated with wife abuse, as well as gender perceptions of wife beating in Zambia, East Africa. Using the 2001/02 Zambia Demographic and Health Survey data, married women, age 15-49, were selected for analysis (N = 4731). The dependent variable in the study is wife abuse and explanatory variables are age, education, employment status, place of residence, beliefs about wife beating, and religion. The data show that more wives than husbands are likely to justify wife-beating under various circumstances with “going out without telling him” being the predominant belief for justifying beating. The data also revealed that in a multivariate context, wives with younger husbands, duration of marriage, place of residence, cultural beliefs about wife-beating, and membership in non-Orthodox religions are some of the risk factors that relate to intimate partner violence in Zambia. Implications of the study relate to strategies for dealing with this social problem, some of which are suggested in the paper.
Why Do Adult Children Support Their Parents?
Authors: Klaus Daniela
Published: April 2019

This study investigates the reasons why adult children support their parents. In the current literature, four factors commonly appear in causal explanations of children’s helping behaviors: intimacy, altruism, obligation, and reciprocity. Yet, attempts to test the combined or relative explanatory power of these factors are rare, and the possibility that the causal relationships might change as children and parents age has not been considered. This study was designed to fill this gap. It is based on a sub-sample of 620 adult children of different age groups taken from the 2005/2006 pre-study of the German ‘Panel Analysis of Intimate Relationships and Family Dynamics’. The dependent variable of interest is the degree of material and instrumental support given to mothers and fathers. The most important explanatory variables were short-term reciprocity, the degree of a child’s attachment to his or her parent, and altruism. The explanatory effect of these variables changed across different stages of the parent-child relationship.
Patterns of Exchange in Kinship Systems in Germany, Russia, and the People’s Republic of China
Authors: Nauck Bernhard
Published: April 2019

The paper attempts to integrate two major theoretical approaches for the explanation of kinship relationships, namely the institutional approach of cultural anthropology and the interactionist approach of family sociology and social gerontology. It takes the institutional settings of kinship systems on the societal level into account and relates them to interactions within the kinship groups. These relations are formulated in two hypotheses: The lineagehypothesis refers to the selection of kinship members for interaction relationships; the welfarehypothesis refers to the selection with regard to the kind of relationship (functional solidarity and/ or emotional solidarity). The empirical analysis is based on an approach suggested by Silverstein et al. (1994) for intergenerational relationships. This approach is extended to include the analysis of kinship relationships with mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, mothers-in-law, fathers-in-law, sisters-in-law, and brothers-in-law. The empirical analysis is based on standardized interviews with mothers and grandmothers in Germany (N = 713), Russia (N = 649) and the People’s Republic of China (N = 823), having been collected within the research project “Value of Children in Six Cultures.” These three societies were chosen for the analysis of kinship relationships, because they differ systematically with regard to the institutional structure: Germany is neolocalbilinear, Russia and China are traditionally patrilocal-patrilinear, but with different modernization pathways. Thus, it can be investigated whether these institutional conditions have an impact on kinship interaction. The empirical analysis comprises 10.173 kinship relationships in total. The typological description of the kinship relationships, based on the interaction dimensions “structural opportunities,” “communication and emotional closeness” and “mutual help,” already reveals significant differences in the importance and the reach of kinship relationships in these three societies. In a subsequent multi-variate multi-level regression analysis, the effects of “society,” “position in the social structure,” “individual attitudes,” and “kinship structure” on “communication and emotional closeness” and “mutual help” are tested. This analysis reveals that the institutional structure of the kinship system has a much stronger effect on kinship relationships than socio-structural factors or individual family-related attitudes.
Adolescents’ Obligations toward their Families: Intergenerational Discrepancies and Well-being in Three Ethnic Groups in the Netherlands
Authors: Vedder Paul , Oortwijn Michiel
Published: April 2019

Parents and their adolescent children tend to disagree about children’s responsibilities in the family, particularly when it comes to caring for parents and household chores. We explored whether this disagreement is similar in three ethnic groups or whether it depends on ethnic background and acculturation. More particularly we investigated: (a) how adolescents and parents perceive family obligations and to what extent their perceptions differ, (b) to what extent family obligations are shaped by ethnic background and acculturation experiences, and (c) to what extent intergenerational discrepancies in family obligations are linked to adolescents’ well-being (i.e., self-esteem, life satisfaction, psychological problems, and behavioral problems). Seventy-four Surinamese, 115 Turkish, and 92 national adolescent-parent dyads living in the Netherlands completed a survey on adolescents’ family obligations. Across ethnic groups, parents reported more family obligations than their children. Turkish and Surinamese families reported more family obligations than did national families. Secondly, intergenerational discrepancies in family obligations were related to ethnicity and acculturation. Finally, larger intergenerational discrepancies coincided with lower life satisfaction and more behavioral problems. In short, intergenerational discrepancies in family obligations may be a common phenomenon, but this phenomenon also depends on families’ ethnic background and acculturation experiences.
Transnational Family Life among Peruvian Migrants in Chile: Multiple Commitments and the Role of Social Remittances
Authors: Carrasco Lorena Núñez
Published: April 2019

By looking at the case of Peruvian migration to Chile, this article explores some of the characteristics of the social reproduction of transnational families between two neighboring countries in the South. This article examines the role played by structural socio-economic conditions migrants live by in Chile in shaping their transnational family lives. It discusses how the labor and housing segmentations of migrants in Chile make family reunifications difficult so that geographical proximity between the two countries is not an enabling factor for the encounter of these families. It also examines some of the characteristics of this community of migrants in Chile, and how their class origin and gender help to understand the particular dynamics of these transnational families and the conjugal relationships migrants maintain in Peru and in Chile. The article focuses on the emotional experiences of Peruvian migrants in Chile and the efforts they invest in keeping their place within their families in Peru, through the material contributions to family livelihoods. The emotional significance of remittances are discussed, highlighting their role in filling the void in the sense of self of migrants which results from the painful distance between family members.
Marriage Today: Exploring the Incongruence Between Americans’ Beliefs and Practices
Authors: Campbell Kelly , Wright David W.
Published: April 2019

This paper provides a literature review of the incongruence between Americans’ beliefs and practices regarding marriage. In the United States, marriage is conceptualized as a monogamous, lifelong partnership. Yet American practices do not support this conceptualization, which is evidenced by infidelity and divorce rates that approximate 25-50 percent. This paper explores the incongruence and examines how cultural shifts in marital practices have contributed to higher rates of infidelity and divorce. Information is presented about the purpose of marriage, and attitudes and practices regarding infidelity and divorce. We present these topics using a sociohistorical context and describe how the nature of marriage has changed over time. It is argued that the purpose of marriage has shifted from being a social obligation to a choice based on personal fulfillment; and that this shift puts individuals at greater risk of infidelity and divorce. Throughout the paper, and particularly in the concluding section, we offer commentary about how the incongruence between marital beliefs and practices can be reconciled at the intrapersonal, interpersonal, and contextual levels.
Assessing Perceived Marriage Education Needs and Interests among Latinos in a Select Western Community
Authors: Snyder Iliana B. , Duncan Stephen F. , Larson Jeffry H.
Published: April 2019

This study utilized focus groups to assess the perceived needs and interests for marriage education among single and married Latino individuals. Individuals (n=53) at various points in the marital developmental life cycle were studied, from high school to married people with children. Professionals working with Latinos also participated (n=l2). Participants were asked 14 open-ended questions to assess various elements of marriage education including content, cost, convenient locations, sources of information, perceived barriers to getting service, and how to get people involved in programs. Findings showed that most females were concerned about domestic violence and infidelity while males were more concerned about financial stability, communication and parenting skills. Professionals echoed many of these findings. Implications for Latino marriage education are discussed.
Marriage Pattern of Immigrants in Sweden
Authors: Behtoui Alireza
Published: April 2019

The purpose of this study is (a) to depict the general pattern of partnership of immigrants and their children in Sweden and their position in the Swedish “marriage market” relative to that of natives; (b) to estimate probability of out-marriage of individuals from different immigrant groups with natives; and (c) to examine ‘exchange theory’ in relation to partnerships between immigrants and natives.

Using a register data-set provided by Statistics Sweden, I find that individuals in this sample tend to choose men and women who are like themselves in socio-economic background, income, educational level, and position in the labour market. Regarding “immigrant background,” the results indicate a tendency towards “ethnic endogamy.” Results also show that men and women with origins in countries outside northwest Europe and North America (ONW) have a lower probability of having a native partner than others. Empirical results also provide some support for “exchange theory,” that is, members of the ONW immigrant group with native partners have compensated for their “tribal stigma of race/ethnicity” with their age and educational differences. They tend to be younger and better-educated than their native partners.
Predictors of Adaptation Among Adolescents from Immigrant Families in Portugal
Authors: Neto Felix
Published: April 2019

The aims of this study were to investigate the degree of psychological and sociocultural adaptation among adolescents with immigrant background in Portugal and the factors that may predict adaptation. The study sample consisted of 755 immigrant adolescents from seven ethnocultural groups (Cape Verdeans, Angolans, Indians, Mozambicans, East Timorese, Sao Tornese, and Guineans) and 320 native Portuguese adolescents. Adolescents from immigrant families reported similar adaptation to that of their native Portuguese counterparts. Predictive factors—socio-demographic and intercultural contact variables—were significantly linked to youths’ adaptation.
How Does Wives’ Unemployment Affect Marriage in Reforming Urban China?
Authors: Hu Xiaohe , Zeng Xuhui , Zheng Li , Flatt Christy
Published: April 2019

This cross-cultural study explores the relationship between wives’ unemployment and marital quality in reforming urban China. Using random survey data from Chengdu (N = 300), we estimate the effects of wives’ unemployment, changing marital dynamics, and spousal responses to the wife’s unemployment on marital affection and marital tension. Under the guidance of an integrated theoretical framework, our ordered logistic and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression results show that the wives’ unemployment and subsequent economic hardship, the deteriorated mother-child relationship, the husbands’ negative responses, and the wives’ symptoms of psychological distress have deleterious effects on urban Chinese marriages. Moreover, our ancillary analyses indicate that the wives’ unemployment is indirectly associated with marital affection through the husband’s negative responses to the wife’s unemployment. This result suggests that from the husband’s perspective the wife’s economic contributions and co-breadwinner role are vitally important for urban Chinese marriages. We conclude that as anticipated the wife’s unemployment is indeed negatively associated with marital quality in reforming urban China.

This paper analyzes the latent consequences of presumptions of equality under communist ideology for the achievement of such equality by women, and provides a set of data which documents that despite the ideological claims, equality at certain levels of the bureaucracy has not been achieved and seems to be dependent upon changes in the cultural belief system of the Cubans regarding appropriate sex role differences.
Love, Arranged Marriage, and the Indian Social Structure
Authors: Gupta Giri Raj
Published: April 2019

This paper examines the concepts of “romantic love” and “conjugal love” and their relationship to arranged marriage in the Indian social system. The family system, though it is pervasive in all social systems, represents unique features of a particular society and its ongoing changes which control the expression of premarital love/romantic love and also determine the importance of conjugal love/marital love. In a society where the family system is a strong agency of socialization and emphasizes family unity as opposed to individual goals, in the absence of other agencies of emotional and marital support, the family exerts a great control on the mate-selection process and the institutionalization of “arranged marriage”.

The purposes and consequences of arranged marriage are tentatively analyzed and a generalized picture of cultural norms and the social system is presented as a theoretical paradigm to understand the importance of arranged marriage in India.

Published: April 2019

A mixture of methane, sulfur and «mantle» metals, which is contained in deep fluids and acting as the natural catalytic system, represents an initial material for the formation of abiogenic oil. This mixture, owing to polymerization transformations of methane, is converted to various hydrocarbons, organosulfur and metal components of oils. Involvement of the methane, having a strong greenhouse effect, sulfur and metals, which are negatively influence a biota, into oil formation prevents penetration of these substances into the atmosphere and soil. This promotes formation a favorable ecological situation.

Website sekolah menjadi salah satu wahana bagi sekolah untuk menunjukkan diri mereka pada masyarakat global, sekaligus sebagai media informasi bagi siapa saja yang ingin mengetahui lebih lengkap tentang sekolah tersebut. Website sekolah mendapat perhatian, tanggapan yang bagus dari berbagai pihak baik dari tenaga kependidikan, siswa, dan juga masyarakat. Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan Negeri 1Lintau Buo (SMK N 1 Litau Buo) adalah salah satu Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan Berstandar Nasional (SMK SSN) di Kabupaten Tanah Datar yang perlu berinteraksi dan bersosialisasi kepada masyarakat luas dengan memberikan informasi yang lengkap dan jelas mengenai sekolah tersebut. Sebelumnya sekolah ini belum pernah mempunyai Sistem Informasi Akademiksebagai media promosi, penerimaan siswa baru dan pemberian informasi kepada siswa, orangtua, wali, maupun masyarakat luas. Oleh karena itu pihak sekolah masih menggunakan cara manual dalam menyampaikan informasi. Cara manual dalam penyampaian informasi yang demikian dirasakan masih banyak memiliki kekurangan, antara lain jangkauan penyebaranya masih kurang luas dan muatan informasi yang terbatas.

Hasil belajar merupakan perubahan perilaku yang dicapai setelah anak mengikuti proses belajar mengajar. Anak mempunyai potensi dalam perilaku psikologis yang dapat dididik dan diubah perilakunya. Potensi itu adalah domain kognitif, afektif dan psikomotorik. Belajar merupakan usaha membuat perubahan perilaku dalam domain kognitif, afektif dan psikomotorik. Domain dalam perilaku psikologis bukanlah kapasitas tunggal. Untuk tujuan pengukuran, domain hasil belajar disusun secara hirarkhis dalam tingkat-tingkat mulai tingkat terendah dan sederhana hingga tertinggi dan paling kompleks. Domain kognitif dapat diklasifikasikan menjadi tingkat hafalan, pemahaman, penerapan, analisis, sintesis dan evaluasi. Domain afektif terdiri dari tingkat penerimaan, respons, penilaian, organisasi dan karakterisasi. Domain psikomotorik dapat diklasifikasikan menjadi persepsi, kesiapan, respons terbimbing, mekanisme, respons kompleks, adaptasi dan keaslian.Â
