This study examined the relationship between gender identity and altruistic behavior, as measured by donations to charity. 471 college students completed a survey to determine their gender identity as masculine, feminine, androgynous, or undifferentiated. They were then given the option to donate a $5 gift card to a food bank or keep it. While gender identity overall did not predict donations, those with a feminine identity donated more than those who were undifferentiated. The results provide partial support for the hypothesis but also indicate limitations in using the outdated measure of gender identity employed. Further research is needed using improved measures and additional variables.
The study examined whether the race of the person asking for help (a White or Korean confederate) affected the willingness of White participants to help by completing a survey. Results found no significant difference in helping rates between the White (87%) and Korean (80%) confederate. This did not support the hypothesis that participants would be more likely to help those of their own race. However, the study had limitations like a small sample size and ceiling effect due to the easy nature of helping. Future research with a more difficult helping task is needed to better understand the relationship between race and helping behavior.
1. The study examined whether stigma exists towards people with disabilities and how attitudes are impacted by use of accommodations. Participants read a vignette about a college student with disabilities who either used accommodations or did not, and completed a survey measuring attitudes.
2. The study found no significant differences in attitudes based on vignette type, gender of participants, or their interaction. Interestingly, male attitudes declined more from the accommodation to non-accommodation vignette than females.
3. The study had limitations like a small sample size and could be improved in the future with a larger, more diverse sample and different measurement tools to better understand stigma surrounding disability.
Narcissism, bullying, and social dominance in youth a longitamit657720
This study examines the longitudinal relationship between narcissism and bullying in youth over 3 years. It uses person-centered analysis to identify distinct trajectories of narcissism and two forms of bullying (direct and indirect) and relates these trajectories. The study finds:
1) For girls, higher narcissism was not related to more intense bullying or higher social dominance.
2) For boys, highly narcissistic boys were more likely than peers to show elevated direct and indirect bullying.
3) Among narcissistic youth, only those who engage in high bullying were high in social dominance.
- The study examined the effects of priming different amounts of money (hundred dollar bills, pennies, or jellybeans) on participants' self-efficacy and intended altruistic donations.
- While priming larger amounts of money did not affect intended donations, it did correlate with lower reported self-efficacy among participants. However, self-efficacy did not correlate with intended donation amounts.
- Life satisfaction was positively correlated with both self-efficacy and intended donations, suggesting its role in connecting these variables merits further investigation.
Violence prevention programs an exploratory study of the chojas18
This document summarizes a study that examined characteristics of youth who participated in a court diversion program for family violence offenses to determine what characteristics prevented completion. The study found that delinquency characteristics like prior violent arrests and school truancy significantly impacted completion rates. Specifically, youth with these risk factors were less likely to successfully complete the program. The findings suggest a more tailored intervention approach is needed for high-risk, multi-problem youth to address recidivism.
This article reviews the literature on women who perpetrate intimate partner violence and recommendations for their treatment. It discusses the debate around research finding that domestic violence is not exclusively perpetrated by men. Studies have found that rates of violence initiated by women in relationships are equivalent to or exceed rates of male-initiated violence. However, this contradicts early feminist theories and has led to attempts to suppress or reinterpret evidence of female-initiated violence. The article argues for recognizing female perpetrators as a growing part of the criminal justice system and identifies similarities and differences between male and female domestic violence offenders to inform improved treatment approaches for women.
This study estimated the heritability and familial correlations of maxillary midline diastemas using 30 extended families consisting of 430 subjects. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using genetic epidemiology software. The results found heritability of maxillary midline diastemas was 0.32 ± 0.14 in white families and 0.04 ± 0.16 in black families, suggesting a possible genetic basis and greater environmental influence in blacks. Familial correlations also indicated genetic influence, though environmental factors played a role given sibling correlations were higher than parent-offspring correlations. The preliminary results provide initial evidence of genetic contribution to maxillary midline diastemas.

This study was a test of the hypothesis that demographic variables (e.g. gender, education) would predict who would be closed minded about the idea of asexuality as a sexual orientation. The participants received the link to the survey on the researcher’s Facebook page. The survey asked the participants’ awareness of asexuality, educational background, feelings towards the topic of sex, religious background, gender, race, age, sexual orientation, and where they were raised. The survey also asked three questions regarding the participants’ beliefs about asexuality as a sexual orientation. The results did show a significant affect on attitudes of gender, and previous education about asexuality. The study also found a strong but not significant relationship between attitudes and religiosity.

This study examined how cell phone use and the bystander effect impact helping behavior. Confederates pretended to drop office supplies and researchers observed whether participants helped. Helping behavior scores were significantly lower when confederates used cell phones or when bystanders were present compared to when they were not. The results supported the hypotheses that cell phone use and the bystander effect decrease helping behavior. Limitations included the observational design in a public setting and only examining college students. Further research could compare helping behavior across age groups.

The document describes a study that aimed to 1) examine the relationships between peer pressure, conformity, and popularity and how they predict risk behaviors, and 2) develop and validate shorter measures of peer pressure and conformity for use in large-scale testing of adolescents. The study developed and validated short 10-item scales of peer pressure and conformity in a sample of 148 adolescent boys and girls. Results showed the new scales had good internal consistency. Peer pressure and conformity were found to be stronger predictors of risk behaviors like substance abuse than measures of popularity or general conformity. The new short scales of peer pressure and conformity were found to be equally or more predictive of risk behaviors than existing longer scales.
APA 2015 Presentation:
The present study aimed to extend the minority stress framework and calls for attention to stress-ameliorating processes with national data from 552 transgender adults. Specifically, the present study examined the relations of minority stressors (i.e., anti-transgender discrimination, expectations of rejection, and internalized transphobia) and potential mental health promoters
(i.e., resilience and collective action) with psychological distress. Results offered support for the applicability of the minority stress model -- including recent expansions positing meditation patterns (Hatzenbuehler, 2009) -- with transgender populations. As expected, each minority stressor was related positively with psychological distress; in terms of the mental health promoters, resilience, but not collective action, was related negatively with psychological distress.
Additionally, expectations of rejection (though not transphobia) mediated the link of anti-transgender discrimination with higher psychological distress. Regarding moderated mediation patterns, the results offered some support for resilience and collective action as moderators.
Strategies for developing individual (e.g., resilience building strategies) and group-level (e.g., engagement in collective action) interventions targeted toward transgender individuals who
experience discrimination are discussed.
Marriage Burnout: When the Emotions Exhausted Quietly Quantitative ResearchRula alsawalqa
Background: When the spouses are aware of the fact that each one has emotional needs thatmust be fulfilled, it will lead to decrease
the marital satisfaction, such as the lack of awareness which will lead to marriage burnout in a long-term period.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the impacts of the spouses’ age, years of marriage, and the nature of marriage
burnout dimensions, especially the emotional exhaustion.
Methods: The researcher of the present study applied a Maslach burnout inventory (MBI) scale to 392 families whose ages were
within the range of (23 - 67) years. Those spouses were married for (1 - 35) years and had children.
Results: Descriptive statistics showed a higher marriage burnout level among the spouses who work in a full-time job and the ones
who do not work in comparison to the ones who work in a part-time job. Emotional exhaustion is mostly influenced by the increase
in the spouses’ ages and years of marriage. Although there was no impact for the years of marriage on depersonalization, personal
accomplishment and depersonalization were mostly influenced by the spouses’ nature of work.
Conclusions: Marriage burnout is a painful state of emotional exhaustion and physical and emotional depletion experienced by
spouses. This state results from emotional exhaustion, work exhaustion, and failure to fulfill the requirements of their marital
relationships, especially the emotional requirements. Spouses having children are more exposed to experience marriage burnout.

The relationship between types ofchildhood victimisation andojas18
This study examined the relationship between different types of childhood victimization (such as physical abuse, neglect, witnessing violence) and criminal behavior in young adulthood. The researchers analyzed data on over 2,000 young Swedish adults who reported experiencing at least one form of childhood victimization. They found that experiences of physical assault, neglect, and witnessing violence as a child were significantly associated with criminal behavior in young adulthood, even after accounting for gender, substance use, and psychopathy. However, experiences of property crimes, verbal abuse, or sexual abuse were not significantly linked to later criminal behavior. This suggests that childhood experiences involving direct violence or witnessing violence carry the greatest risk for criminal behavior in adulthood.
This annotated bibliography examines three sources that explore using creative expression to help families struggling with a terminally ill loved one. The first source discusses how palliative care provides limited support for family distress. The second summarizes a study finding creative expression helped young adult cancer survivors cope through increased understanding and social benefits. The third recommends play therapy to facilitate healthy family communication in counseling, as play can create new communication patterns. Overall, the sources suggest creative activities like art, music, and play therapy should be part of palliative care to address non-verbal family distress.
Childhood Maltreatment and PTSD Literature Review and Proposed StudyAlexandraPerkins5
The document summarizes a final project proposal that examines the relationship between childhood maltreatment, PTSD, and subsequent substance use disorders. The proposal includes a literature review of 6 articles on the topic and a proposed correlational research study using assessments to measure PTSD, childhood trauma, and substance abuse severity in adults undergoing residential treatment. The hypothesis is that adults who experienced childhood maltreatment and developed PTSD will be at increased risk for substance use disorders.
Adolescent suicide risk four psychosocial factorsferrellnl
This document summarizes a study examining four psychosocial factors (hopelessness, hostility, negative self-concept, and low social support) as predictors of suicide risk in adolescents. The study found that adolescents with higher scores on a suicide probability scale had significantly higher levels of hopelessness and reported more serious suicide attempts requiring medical care compared to those with lower scores. While no single demographic predicted risk, collectively the four psychosocial factors correlated with increased risk. The study suggests future research should further examine how addressing these psychosocial factors could help reduce adolescent suicide risk.
1) The document summarizes research on mimicry behavior of males in relationships and the presence of attractive female alternatives. It examines past studies on mimicry and its relationship to attraction, and the concepts of self-control and how mindsets shape it.
2) One study found that people in romantic relationships mimicked attractive alternatives of the opposite sex less than those not in relationships. Relationship status influenced mimicry even when relationship status was unknown.
3) Another study showed unconscious mimicry is used as a social distance mechanism, with people increasing mimicry to show interest or decreasing it to show desired distance.
This study examined the mediating role of delinquent peer association and the moderating role of parenting practices on the relationship between callous-unemotional (CU) traits and self-reported offending in a sample of 1,216 male juvenile offenders. The findings suggested that the effect of CU traits on offending was partially mediated by delinquent peer association. Additionally, it was found that when both parental warmth and supervision were high, the indirect effect of CU traits on offending through delinquent peers was no longer significant. The results highlight the importance of parenting, particularly both warmth and monitoring, in reducing the influence of delinquent peers on offending for youth with high CU traits.
This document is a research proposal that examines bullying in primary and secondary school environments. It begins with an introduction that defines bullying and notes its prevalence. It then discusses characteristics of typical victims and bullies, differences in bullying by grade, gender, and type of aggression. The proposal also reviews effects of victimization like increased health issues, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. The methods section outlines plans to study participants of different ages, genders, and socioeconomic backgrounds using surveys to collect both qualitative and quantitative data for analysis.
Bullying is a widespread issue in schools that can have severe psychological effects on victims, witnesses, and perpetrators. Research shows bullying affects students of all demographics and can lead to issues like low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, poor school performance, and even suicidal thoughts or actions. While all students are at risk, those with traits outside social norms may be more likely to be targeted. Resiliency and social support can help mediate the negative impacts of bullying. More research is still needed to better understand and prevent bullying.
Observational Learning Evidence From A Randomized Natural Field ExperimentYu Rong Chen
This document summarizes a randomized natural field experiment conducted in a Beijing restaurant to study observational learning. The researchers provided different information to dining parties ("tables") about popular dishes from the previous week. They found that revealing the top 5 dishes increased demand for those dishes by 13-20% compared to controls, indicating observational learning. Simply listing some sample dishes did not boost their demand. Observational learning effects were stronger for infrequent customers. Customers also reported higher dining satisfaction when given popularity information.
The study examined how perceptions of blame in a dating violence scenario varied based on the victim's sexual orientation (heterosexual or homosexual) and sport played (basketball or gymnastics). Results showed that the homosexual basketball player victim was blamed the most, while the heterosexual basketball player victim was blamed the least. This followed stereotypes that view basketball as masculine and homosexuality less seriously than heterosexuality regarding abuse. However, in the heterosexual condition the basketball player was blamed less than the gymnast, contrasting initial predictions. Explanations for the findings center around perceptions of masculinity and equality in relationships influencing views of blame for abuse.
Psychology Research Methods - Final Research PaperSaumya Sudhir
The study investigated how race and age affect perceptions of friendliness. 57 female college students rated photos of women on friendliness. Results showed:
1) Participants rated college-aged targets as friendlier than middle-aged targets, but did not rate racially congruent targets as significantly friendlier.
2) Participants rated racially incongruent college-aged targets as significantly friendlier than middle-aged targets, but did not differ in ratings for racially congruent targets.
3) There was a significant interaction between race and age on friendliness ratings.
Exposing Gender Bias When Considering Male and Female AuthorsPatti Cottonaro
This study investigated potential gender bias in evaluating identical academic articles. Participants read one of two versions of an article that differed only in gendered names - one with all male names and one with all female names. Those who read the male-centric version gave it a statistically significantly higher score than those who read the female-centric version, suggesting the presence of unconscious gender bias favoring male authors. The results supported the hypothesis that identical work would be judged more favorably if authored by a man rather than a woman.
This study investigated how physical attractiveness, social attractiveness, and self-esteem affect perceptions of desirability and reciprocity in online dating. 80 students viewed one of four fictional dating profiles that varied in physical and social attractiveness of the person depicted. Participants completed self-esteem and desirability/reciprocity measures. Results showed that profiles with high physical or social attractiveness were seen as more desirable. Profiles with both high physical and social attractiveness were seen as most desirable. Contrary to hypotheses, those with low self-esteem perceived higher reciprocity than those with high self-esteem. The study provides insight into how attributes affect perceptions in online dating.

What College Women Want - Do for skeletal summary
WHAT COLLEGE WOMEN WANT IN A MARRIAGE PARTNER. By: O'reilly, Sarah, Knox, David, Zusman, Marty, College Student Journal, 01463934, Jun2009 Part B, Vol. 43, Issue 2
Database: Academic Search Premier
WHAT COLLEGE WOMEN WANT IN A MARRIAGE PARTNER
One-hundred-and-ninety seven undergraduates at a large southeastern university completed a confidential anonymous 22-item questionnaire designed to assess the qualities college womenwant in their prospective marital partners. The data revealed that women (when compared to whatmenwant in a partner) were significantly more likely to prefer men who were "considerate," "dependable," and "intelligent." Women are moving away from viewing potential partners exclusively in instrumental terms of ability to provide money for them, as well as subsequent children, and toward viewing men in terms of more "expressive" qualities such as consideration, dependability, and intelligence. Implications and limitations of the data are suggested.
Oklahoma Crude is a vintage film featuring the late George C. Scott and Faye Dunaway. The story takes place on top of a hill where Faye Dunaway has hired George C. Scott to protect her and her oil rig from imposing villains (led by Jack Palance) who want her property. One scene includes a drunken unshaven Scott lumbering over to the cabin where Dunaway is staying. She says to him as he gets within six inches of her face, "I know what you want," to which he replies, "No you don't." She then says, "Yes I do…. I know whatmenwant!"
The scene reflects cultural assumptions about men and women. This study is not about men but about whatwomenwant in a prospective marital partner. Previous researchers on whatwomenwant in a future partner have found that women place higher emphasis on financial and emotional stability, good parenting skills, and equal or higher education (Lewis and Oppenheimer, 2000; Ganong and Coleman, 1992). A team of researchers also noted that women seek an attractive partner (Lacey, Reifman, Scott, Harris, and Fitzpatrick, 2004).

Gender Issues Associated With Age, Gender, Ethnicity EssayKimberly Haynes
This essay examines issues related to age, gender, ethnicity in the workplace, focusing on gender relations, stereotyping, and sources of inequality. It discusses how organizational culture, norms, and stereotypes can impact opportunities for people. It will analyze inequalities in who does what type of work, particularly looking at women's roles. The essay will critically observe and reflect on three TV programs related to inequality and gender roles in the workplace.

However, in the heterosexual condition the basketball player was blamed less than the gymnast, contrasting initial predictions. Explanations for the findings center around perceptions of masculinity and equality in relationships influencing views of blame for abuse.

The study investigated how race and age affect perceptions of friendliness. 57 female college students rated photos of women on friendliness. Results showed:
1) Participants rated college-aged targets as friendlier than middle-aged targets, but did not rate racially congruent targets as significantly friendlier.
2) Participants rated racially incongruent college-aged targets as significantly friendlier than middle-aged targets, but did not differ in ratings for racially congruent targets.
3) There was a significant interaction between race and age on friendliness ratings.
Exposing Gender Bias When Considering Male and Female AuthorsPatti Cottonaro
This study investigated potential gender bias in evaluating identical academic articles. Participants read one of two versions of an article that differed only in gendered names - one with all male names and one with all female names. Those who read the male-centric version gave it a statistically significantly higher score than those who read the female-centric version, suggesting the presence of unconscious gender bias favoring male authors. The results supported the hypothesis that identical work would be judged more favorably if authored by a man rather than a woman.
This study investigated how physical attractiveness, social attractiveness, and self-esteem affect perceptions of desirability and reciprocity in online dating. 80 students viewed one of four fictional dating profiles that varied in physical and social attractiveness of the person depicted. Participants completed self-esteem and desirability/reciprocity measures. Results showed that profiles with high physical or social attractiveness were seen as more desirable. Profiles with both high physical and social attractiveness were seen as most desirable. Contrary to hypotheses, those with low self-esteem perceived higher reciprocity than those with high self-esteem. The study provides insight into how attributes affect perceptions in online dating.

What College Women Want - Do for skeletal summary
WHAT COLLEGE WOMEN WANT IN A MARRIAGE PARTNER. By: O'reilly, Sarah, Knox, David, Zusman, Marty, College Student Journal, 01463934, Jun2009 Part B, Vol. 43, Issue 2
Database: Academic Search Premier
WHAT COLLEGE WOMEN WANT IN A MARRIAGE PARTNER
One-hundred-and-ninety seven undergraduates at a large southeastern university completed a confidential anonymous 22-item questionnaire designed to assess the qualities college womenwant in their prospective marital partners. The data revealed that women (when compared to whatmenwant in a partner) were significantly more likely to prefer men who were "considerate," "dependable," and "intelligent." Women are moving away from viewing potential partners exclusively in instrumental terms of ability to provide money for them, as well as subsequent children, and toward viewing men in terms of more "expressive" qualities such as consideration, dependability, and intelligence. Implications and limitations of the data are suggested.
Oklahoma Crude is a vintage film featuring the late George C. Scott and Faye Dunaway. The story takes place on top of a hill where Faye Dunaway has hired George C. Scott to protect her and her oil rig from imposing villains (led by Jack Palance) who want her property. One scene includes a drunken unshaven Scott lumbering over to the cabin where Dunaway is staying. She says to him as he gets within six inches of her face, "I know what you want," to which he replies, "No you don't." She then says, "Yes I do…. I know whatmenwant!"
The scene reflects cultural assumptions about men and women. This study is not about men but about whatwomenwant in a prospective marital partner. Previous researchers on whatwomenwant in a future partner have found that women place higher emphasis on financial and emotional stability, good parenting skills, and equal or higher education (Lewis and Oppenheimer, 2000; Ganong and Coleman, 1992). A team of researchers also noted that women seek an attractive partner (Lacey, Reifman, Scott, Harris, and Fitzpatrick, 2004).

Gender Issues Associated With Age, Gender, Ethnicity EssayKimberly Haynes
This essay examines issues related to age, gender, ethnicity in the workplace, focusing on gender relations, stereotyping, and sources of inequality. It discusses how organizational culture, norms, and stereotypes can impact opportunities for people. It will analyze inequalities in who does what type of work, particularly looking at women's roles. The essay will critically observe and reflect on three TV programs related to inequality and gender roles in the workplace.
Females had a more positive attitude towards romantic relationships than males. There was no significant gender difference in views on what a partner can provide or physical attractiveness. Males held more traditional views supporting the concept of double standards in relationships compared to females. The study found both similarities and differences in how males and females view romantic and sexual relationships, contradicting some past research. Further research should examine the influence of other factors like religion and relationship status.
This document summarizes a research study that investigated pro-social behavior across different age groups and genders in Pakistan. The study found no significant differences in pro-social behavior between younger and older participants or between males and females. The document suggests that widespread social, economic, and political ambiguities in recent decades have increased stress and insecurity in society, reducing individuals' willingness to engage in pro-social acts. It recommends community interventions, strengthening family relationships, and cultural changes to promote pro-social values in order to increase helping behavior.
There were no significant findings regarding the effects of age, race, or their interaction on perceptions of credibility. The only trend was that older men were viewed as less caring than younger men. Limitations included that the measures of credibility may not have captured the relevant stereotypes and the stated ages or appearances may not have strongly evoked biases. More refined research is needed to better illustrate how biases affect workplace disparities.
This critique summarizes and evaluates a journal article that examines why mothers are losing child custody battles to fathers between 1980-2003. The article finds that in areas receiving federal fatherhood funding, fathers were more likely to be awarded custody, even in cases of abuse, addiction or lower income. The critique notes the article uses multiple research methods including observation studies, longitudinal data, and interviews. However, it also points out limitations like potential bias and a lack of proving whether custody shifts were unfair. Overall, the critique assess the research methods used but also raises questions about the conclusions drawn.

Bares, D.S., Toro, P.A. (1999). Developing measures to assess social support among homeless and poor
people. Journal of Community Psychology, 27 (2), 137-156.
Baras and Toro (1999) sought to assess the social support of homeless populations by using two
commonly used instruments: The Interpersonal Support Evaluation (ISEL) and the Social Network
Interview (SNL). In comparing the instruments, the ISEL was found to be useful in indicating a
participant’s psychological well-being, while the SNL helped to assess stress-buffering effects.
More details regarding the instrument items would have been more helpful for the use of this
paper. However, the study’s results substantiate the concept that the presence of social support
for the homeless should support physical and psychological health in the way that it cushions the
effects of stressful events. These instruments yielded results indicating that larger nonfamily
social networks are a predictor for recurring homelessness, as well as mental illness.

problems, and physical drug dependencies in homeless women. Addictive Behaviors, 24 (6), 801-
814.
This study was designed to show relationships between psychosocial elements and use of the top
three most frequently used drugs among homeless women. The impact of social networks on
adaptive and maladaptive coping mechanisms that influence drug use were measured through a
version of the Jalowiec Coping Scale, part of a multi-item instrument. Depression, current drug
use, drug problems and physical drug dependence were assessed, in other parts of the
instrument. Current drug use was found to predict negative social support, depression and less
use of positive coping strategies. Homelessness may diminish a woman’s capability to establish
and maintain positive social support. This article was very informative in that it gives clearly
identified stressors for homeless women and reasons for maladaptation. Use in paper?
Hill, R. P., (1992). Homeless children: coping with material losses. The Journal of Consumer Affairs, 26
(2), 274-287.
This one-year study investigated how various possessions and fantasies serve as coping
mechanisms for homeless children. Many of the child participants were resilient despite
homelessness because of positive role models. In addition, though they had little material
possessions, these children often engaged in fantastical play that portrayed one particular
“special” toy overcoming evil and other obstacles, then moving on to a better place. The
methods used in this study are primarily interviewing and observation, and were part of an
ethnography at a suburban homeless shelter; no psychometric instruments were used. Though
the researcher’s background primarily involves an interest in consumerism, this study is valuable.

“I Have,” “I Would,” “I Won’t”: Hooking Up Among Sexually Diverse
Groups of College Students

Incorporating the intention to “hook up” with whether one has hooked up can distinguish groups with
unique sets of background characteristics and experiences pertaining to hooking up within the college
culture. A large, gender-balanced sample of college students (N � 3,893) from 2 universities that
represented sizable numbers of diverse sexual identities was analyzed for the current study. Results
indicated that within each sexual identity, men were more likely than women to have hooked up (“I
have”) and to be willing to hookup if they hadn’t (“I would”). Across sexual identities, gay/lesbian and
bisexual individuals were more likely to have hooked up than were straight individuals. Gay and straight
individuals were more likely than bisexual individuals to intend to avoid hooking up (“I won’t”).
However, multivariate analyses that accounted for various background, attitudinal, and sexual experi-
ences appeared to account for much of the variation by sexual identity.
Public Significance Statement
This study identified that men as a group and individuals identifying as gay, lesbian, or bisexual were
more likely to have “hooked up” and to be willing to hook up if they hadn’t. Such differences among
sexual identities lessened when diverse beliefs and experiences were accounted for.
Keywords: hooking up, sexual identity, intentions
“Hooking up” has become a major focus of research in sexuality
and relationships of emerging adults, especially college students.
Though definitions vary, a hookup is typically understood to be a
sexual encounter that occurs between individuals who have no
relationship commitment, sometimes who are strangers (Garcia,
Reiber, Massey, & Merriwether, 2012; Lewis, Atkins, Blayney,
Dent, & Kaysen, 2013). Motivations for hooking up include not
having a formal dating scene alternative, sexual gratification,
wanting to fit in, fun/adventure, being too busy for a steady
relationship (e.g., demands of a college-student life), and hope for
a transition into a romantic relationship (Uecker et al., 2015). The
college context promotes hooking-up encounters, with an apparent
cultural expectation that hooking up is integral to embracing the
full college experience (Bogle, 2007; Garcia et al., 2012). Re-
searchers continue to investigate the profile of individuals likely to
hook up, their motivations for doing so, and the outcomes of the
experience.
Yet some college students report never having hooked up (Gar-
cia et al., 2012). Such individuals may be categorized as those who
avoid such encounters (e.g., the strongly religious) or those who
have not had the opportunity. Those who have not hooked up could
thus be meaningfully different from one another, depending on
their intentions related to hooking up. Understanding the charac-.
This study examined whether a person's need for sex predicts their comfort with casual sex and likelihood of engaging in risky sexual behaviors. 111 participants completed online questionnaires measuring their need for sex, views on casual sex, and sexual history. Higher need for sex correlated with more unrestricted views of casual sex and a higher frequency of risky sexual encounters. However, there was no significant interaction between the three measures. The findings suggest an individual's need for sex can impact their psychology and behaviors regarding casual and risky sex, which has implications for understanding hazardous sexual behavior.
This study tested a model of modern homonegativity by examining the relationships between affective characteristics (anger and disgust), cognitive characteristics (religious beliefs and conservative ideology), exposure to queer individuals, and levels of modern homonegativity. The researchers hypothesized that anger, disgust and cognitive characteristics would be associated with higher modern homonegativity, while direct (but not indirect) exposure would be associated with lower homonegativity by impacting cognitive characteristics. Structural equation modeling supported the hypotheses and revealed that direct exposure reduced cognitive characteristics and modern homonegativity, while indirect exposure increased anger.
The document discusses egalitarian versus traditional relationships based on a survey of 18 married participants. Key findings include:
- Half of participants desired an egalitarian relationship while married, while the other half desired a traditional relationship
- Of those who originally desired egalitarian, 4 felt they achieved it, 3 somewhat, and 1 did not
- Women reported doing more hours of household chores and childcare, while men reported more hours of outside work and paid work

The document is an acknowledgement from researchers thanking various individuals who assisted with their research. It expresses appreciation to their supervisor, lecturer, senior lecturer, and others who provided guidance and support throughout the research process. It also thanks the families who allowed their children to participate in the research.
The document discusses gender stereotypes among married couples in family. It aims to critically examine stereotypical gender roles through a study of 100 married couples selected randomly. The study objectives are to identify major areas of gender stereotypes in household responsibilities, decision making, independence, and social life. It analyzes data collected through questionnaires and interviews using statistical techniques to understand stereotypical perceptions between husbands and wives. Preliminary results show disagreements around equal sharing of household work and a tendency to see men as achievers outside home while women take care of family.
This document discusses research on the relationship between gender and ethical perspectives. Some key points:
- Previous research has found that women tend to choose ethical options over unethical ones more often than men.
- The author conducted an experiment that found a relationship between gender identity (masculine, feminine, androgynous) and preference for different ethical perspectives (care-focused or justice-focused).
- Those with feminine gender identities tended to prefer care-focused ethical perspectives, while masculine and androgynous participants favored justice-focused perspectives.
- This provides some support for theories that gender influences how people approach ethical decision-making. However, more research is still needed to fully understand this relationship.

In this study of Kwon he talks about the challenges that influx Asians international undergraduate students in universities in the United States. Creating greater education and better social environments. He gets to talking about how Asians American student leaders and their organizations became difficult institutional task on diversity.
This article pertains to be a good source for my paper because it talks about a particular race that have trouble with being able to fit in with the university. Talks about segregation and racial discrimnation in the community. It could be a useful source for my paper. It’s useful because my topic is about racial discrimination and this source fits perfect.

In this study of Walker-DeVose talks about race that’s critical such as how African Americans and White students at a PWI are diverse. He also talks about how Blacks interact with each other. He says when blaack and white socialize its common to say their post-racial environment. In his study he suggest that students of any race recognize the persistence of the racial discrimination.
This source could be a good source for my paper because it has aspects that talks more about race and how they interact on campus and each other. I think this article by far the best one I found because it get in depth with race discrimination in organziations , campuses, and each other. The goal of this source is to inform people on what goes on with each race and people who try to engage with people.

In this study of Sarah Holmes she talks about how GLBT youth comes out more when their younger ages. She also gets into how the schools doesn’t do anything about how the kids of that community get harassed and bullied for being what they want to be. They face problems with racism and the risk of rejection by their community. If parents are apart of the GLBT their children become targets because of them and it affects their ability and focus at school.
This source I feel like wouldn’t be reliable for my paper but it could be a little useful. It could shape my paper in a way that could change my paper. It’s more about the LGBT side than just racism but it some parts of the source it talks about racism. It can be useful because the source is about how LGBT people have to go through things d ...
This study analyzed whether people can subconsciously detect the sexual orientation of others based on facial features alone. 43 students viewed photos of faces and rated them on attractiveness and sexual orientation. The results showed that gay participants were better at detecting homosexuality in their own gender, while straight females were better at detecting homosexuality in males. Both gay and straight participants tended to rate faces of straight individuals as more attractive. This suggests people may have unconscious awareness of others' sexual orientation based solely on facial features.
The study examined how peer networks of female college freshmen related to their romantic involvement. It found that freshmen who were not dating had significantly more female friends and friends living on campus than those who were in a relationship. This suggests that non-dating freshmen felt more comfortable with close social support networks of other females and those nearby. However, the study found few other significant differences and its hypothesis that dating freshmen would have larger, more gender diverse networks was not supported. Limitations included condensed data that ignored cultural and age differences.
This document discusses the benefits and challenges of using open educational resources (OER). It begins by defining OER as freely available online teaching and learning materials. The main benefits outlined are that OER are free, accessible online, convenient to use without physical textbooks, and provide a large quantity of material on many topics. However, some challenges of OER are that some students prefer printed materials, it can be harder to comprehend materials online, using e-readers before bed may disrupt sleep, and it takes time to sift through large amounts of material to find high quality resources. The conclusion is that using a mix of OER electronic materials and traditional printed textbooks may be best.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
