Book Influences of Gender Roles

Download or read book Influences of Gender Roles written by Kailey Bax and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine gender role traits and gender role beliefs, and how they influence depressive symptomatology and life satisfaction. Gender role norms have been slowly changing over the past century. This shift has been largely contributed to by feminism. As women gain more equal rights and opportunities the roles they take on in life change, so do men's. Today, traditional gender roles are no longer typical as men and women fulfill multiple roles, some of which would not be considered traditional for their sex, such as many women today being in the workforce, and men taking on more domestic duties. Gender role beliefs have also been changing, as views have been shifting to more feminist and less traditionalism. These changes are slow and usually subtle, as each generation grows up with different views of what is typical or appropriate conduct. There have been many studies examining gender role traits and their influences, including depression and life satisfaction. However, there are few studies on gender role beliefs, and there is a lack of research that examines both gender role traits and beliefs influences'. The purpose of this study was to examine whether gender roles influenced well-being, and specifically whether incongruent traits and beliefs have higher depressive symptomatology and lower life satisfaction. 150 participants were recruited for this study. Participants completed the Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI), the Gender Role Beliefs Scale (GRBS), the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression scale (CES-D), the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) online. Results show that gender roles and well-being are related, and that incongruent traits and beliefs relate to higher depressive symptomatology and perceived stress, but do not relate to life satisfaction.

Book Encyclopedia of Human Relationships

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Human Relationships written by Harry T. Reis and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2009-03-15 with total page 1905 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Library Journal Best Reference 2009 "An excellent gateway to further examination of any of the subdisciplines of relationship science, or as a research tool in its own right." —Library Journal Relationships are fundamental to nearly all domains of human activity, from birth to death. When people participate in healthy, satisfying relationships, they live, work, and learn more effectively. When relationships are distressed or dysfunctional, people are less happy, less healthy, and less productive. Few aspects of human experience have as broad or as deep effects on our lives. The Encyclopedia of Human Relationships offers an interdisciplinary view of all types of human associations—friends, lovers, spouses, roommates, coworkers, teammates, parents and children, cousins, siblings, acquaintances, neighbors, business associates, and so forth. Although each of these connections is unique in some respect, they share a common core of principles and processes. These three volumes provide a state-of-the-art review of the extensive theories, concepts, and empirical findings about human relationships. Key Features Compiles leading-edge information about how people think, feel, and act toward each other Presents the best in the field—authors who have contributed significant scientific knowledge about personal relationships over the past several decades.

Book The SAGE Encyclopedia of Psychology and Gender

Download or read book The SAGE Encyclopedia of Psychology and Gender written by Kevin L. Nadal and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2017-04-15 with total page 2043 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Psychology and Gender is an innovative exploration of the intersection of gender and psychology—topics that resonate across disciplines and inform our everyday lives. This encyclopedia looks at issues of gender, identity, and psychological processes at the individual as well as the societal level, exploring topics such as how gender intersects with developmental processes both in infancy and childhood and throughout later life stages; the evolution of feminism and the men’s movement; the ways in which gender can affect psychological outcomes and influence behavior; and more. With articles written by experts across a variety of disciplines, this encyclopedia delivers insights on the psychology of gender through the lens of developmental science, social science, clinical and counseling psychology, sociology, and more. This encyclopedia will provide librarians, students, and professionals with ready access to up-to-date information that informs some of today’s key contemporary issues and debates. These are the sorts of questions we plan for this encyclopedia to address: What is gender nonconformity? What are some of the evolutionary sex differences between men and women? How does gender-based workplace harassment affect health outcomes? How are gender roles viewed in different cultures? What is third-wave feminism?

Book Handbook of Forensic Sociology and Psychology

Download or read book Handbook of Forensic Sociology and Psychology written by Stephen J. Morewitz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of behavioral and social sciences in the courtroom setting has expanded exponentially in the past few decades. It is now widely recognized that scientists in these areas provide critical contextual information for legal decision making, and that there is a reliable knowledge base for doing so. While there are many handbooks of forensic psychology, this is the first such volume to incorporate sociological findings, broadening the conceptual basis for examining cases in both the civil and criminal realms, including immigration issues, personal injury, child custody, and sexual harassment. This volume will examine the responsibilities of expert witnesses and consultants, and how they may utilize principles, theories and methods from both sociology and psychology. It will show these disciplines together can improve the identification and apprehension of criminals, as well as enhance the administration of justice by clarifying profiles of criminal behavior, particularly in cases of serial killers, death threat makers, stalkers, and kidnappers. The volume is quite comprehensive, covering a range of medical, school, environmental and business settings. Throughout it links basic ideas to real applications and their impact on the justice system.
