Download or read book Handbook of Sexuality Related Measures written by Clive M. Davis and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1998 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamental to understanding human sexual expression is reliable and valid measurement and assessment. Many instruments have been developed to measure a myriad of sexuality-related states, traits, behaviors, and outcomes. Few are easily accessible and the information is limited concerning appropriate use and psychometric properties. In Handbook of Sexuality-Related Measures, more than 200 instruments are reproduced, accompanied by the necessary information for their use in research, as well as educational and clinical settings. Measures relating to more than 50 topics are included. Examples are abortion, aging, arousal, general and specific attitudes and behavior, contraception, dysfunctions, education, experience, gender identity, homosexuality, ideology, jealousy, knowledge, masturbation, orgasm, rape, and sexually transmitted diseases. Each chapter describes the development and appropriate use of each instrument, giving information on timing, scoring, and interpretation. Reliability and validity data are,summarized and completely referenced. Nearly all articles include the entire instrument; others provide illustrative content from the instrument and give all necessary information to obtain the instrument.

Download or read book Where the Spirit Is written by R. Shea Watts and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-03-06 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores the experiential contours of Pentecostalism as a liberative praxis. The connection between Pentecostalism and social change is a burgeoning line of inquiry, particularly in the Global South, but this study focuses on the history of Pentecostalism in the US, beginning with the production and circulation of the African American Spirituals. Bringing theories of affect into conversation with ritual studies, this interdisciplinary work traces personal stories and experiences from the author and examines them in light of Pentecostal traditions that stem from the Azusa Street Revival in Los Angeles, California, the birthplace of the Pentecostal movement. William J. Seymour’s vision at Azusa was egalitarian and transgressed the societal boundaries and norms of race and gender in the early twentieth century. Pentecostalism was and is informed by Black, queer, female, and other voices often silent or rendered invisible. Without this representation, Pentecostalism is simply one tradition among many co-opted and appropriated for the ongoing colonial projects of the modern Western world. Therefore, this book explores Blackpentecostal tradition: specifically, The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries (TFAM), a predominately Black LGBTQ+ movement that integrates Pentecostal worship and theology with an inclusive, liberative theology.

Download or read book Communicating Affection written by Kory Floyd and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-05-08 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few behavioral processes are more central to the development and maintenance of intimate relationships than the communication of affection. Indeed, affectionate expressions often initiate and accelerate relational development. By contrast, their absence in established relationships frequently coincides with relational deterioration. This text explores the scientific research on affection exchange to emerge from the disciplines of communication, social psychology, family studies, psychophysiology, anthropology, and nursing. Specific foci include the individual and relational benefits (including health benefits) of affectionate behavior, as well as the significant risks often associated with expressing affection. A new, comprehensive theory of human affection exchange is offered, and its merits relative to existing theories are explored.

Download or read book The Abandoned Children written by Michael Shoels and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about a young girl who was orphaned at a young age. She was an only child with two loving parents who loved her unconditionally. Her parents were killed in a car accident and instead of her accepting it as an accidental death, she took it as though they abandoned her. Even though she was left in the care of the aunt, her mothers sister; her husband; and their two children who were an upscale family, she chose to go the other way by hanging out with the wrong people and doing drugs. That went on until she got pregnant by her childhood boyfriend, and they were married at a young age. After three children together, he was still her stability, until one Sunday, he went to the grocery store and walked in on a robbery and was shot and killed. That sent her over the edge, giving the same sense that she had with her parents that he had abandoned her and the children. That lead her back to the streets and doing drugs until it took her life temporally after having an out-of-body experience with the afterlife. Once she understood the importance of family, she was given a second chance to live with the support of her family.

Download or read book A Commentary on 1 2 Corinthians written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Were it not for problems in the church at Corinth, we might never have had Paul's teaching on marriage and celibacy, supernatural gifts, the resurrection and, above all, his sublime description of Christian love. We have just two of the four letters he wrote to them. They reveal his major concerns for his converts - to see them mature as individuals and to integrate them properly into Spirit-filled fellowships. Follow-up was essential to New Testament evangelism. In the second, Paul reveals more than ever of his personal experience, his constant perils, his feelings (delight and disappointment), his reactions to rivals, his humiliations and his boasting - in short, the inner life of the apostle.

Download or read book Soul Dance Collection written by Ann Gimpel and published by Ann Gimpel Books, LLC. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 889 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 1100 pages of can’t-put-down paranormal fiction. Shifters and gypsies hate each other, but they hate vampires more. If they can’t set their differences aside and forge a new alliance, they’ve signed their own death warrants. And if magic dies out of the world, humans won’t be far behind. Tarnished Beginnings Tairin Jabari was born in a caravan and has always believed she's Romani. Why wouldn't she? Her mother and father never suggested otherwise. The Rom have harsh rules. When Tairin's first shift catches her unaware at thirteen, her father disappears, and the elders move with deadly speed to punish her mother for mating outside the blood. Tarnished Legacy Half Romani, Tairin's no stranger to hiding her mixed blood from gypsy caravans. What she can't hide is her perpetual youth, courtesy of her shifter heritage. Every few years, she drops out of sight, resurfacing in a new country to join a caravan where no one knows her. She's overstayed her welcome where she is, but Germany is at war, and travel has become all but impossible for everyone targeted by the Reich. Tarnished Prophecy Magic runs strong in Ilona, a gypsy seer. Powerful ability isn't valued in Romani women, so she focuses her fortunetelling on inconsequential details. Nothing that could come back to haunt her caravan if a prediction went bad. Rounded up and dumped in Dachau prison camp, she has plenty of time to rue her decision to downplay her ability. If she'd taken the time to scry her own future, she'd still be free. Tarnished Journey Long before Germany targeted the Romani people and sent them to prison camps, the Netherlands declared them undesirables. Yara's caravan disbanded when she was fifteen to avoid being driven out of the country. Ten years have passed, and she's been alone for most of that time hiding in caves and abandoned buildings. It's been a lonely life, but at least she still has one. For now.
