Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dating violence is a serious public health and safety problem in colleges and universities. Due to its prevalence, many universities and colleges across the nation have started to implement programs for the prevention and intervention of dating violence. Dating violence can have serious implications in students’ health that can affect their academic success. College students who experience dating violence are at higher risk to develop depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress. Studies have demonstrated that students who experience dating violence usually disclose it to peers and friends, but oftentimes their peers do not have the necessary skills to be able to help them. This was an exploratory study, which used a convenient sample comprised of 53 student leaders from an urban community college. Most of the participants were second year students, they were mostly vii females (n = 24) and males (n = 27), between the ages of 18 through 27 years old, mostly heterosexual, White and Hispanic/Latino. The participants held leadership roles as courseembedded tutors and lead peer mentors on campus. This study measured their perceptions and knowledge about dating violence. To measure these two variables (perceptions and knowledge), the researcher used two questionnaires that were previously used by Khubchandani et al (2012) to assess high school counselors' knowledge, training, perceptions, and practices on dealing with dating violence. To fit with this current study, the researcher made one modification to the perceptions’ questionnaire. The modification consisted of changing the words “school counselors” to “student leaders.” Descriptive and frequency statistics were calculated and measured participants’ perceptions and knowledge about dating violence. Statistical findings suggested that participants were willing to help in the prevention and intervention of dating violence in the community college by learning strategies in the prevention and intervention of dating violence. However, statistical findings demonstrated that participants significantly lacked knowledge about what constitutes dating violence. This study also included a short questionnaire with demographical questions that analyzed gender differences between females and males’ scores from bot questionnaires. Independent sample t-tests were calculated and findings demonstrated that there were no statistical gender differences between participants for neither the perceptions questionnaire nor the knowledge questionnaire about dating violence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years China has witnessed unprecedented economic growth, emerging as a powerful, influential player on the global stage. Now, more than ever, there is a great interest and need within the West to better understand the psychological and social processes that characterize the Chinese people. The Oxford Handbook of Chinese Psychology is the first book of its kind - a comprehensive and commanding review of Chinese psychology, covering areas of human functioning with unparalleled sophistication and complexity. In 42 chapters, leading authorities cite and integrate both English and Chinese-language research in topic areas ranging from the socialization of children, mathematics achievement, emotion, bilingualism and Chinese styles of thinking to Chinese identity, personal relationships, leadership processes and psychopathology. With all chapters accessibly written by the leading researchers in their respective fields, the reader of this volume will learn how and why China has developed in the way it has, and how it is likely to develop. In addition, the book shows how a better understanding of a culture so different to our own can tell us so much about our own culture and sense of identity. A book of extraordinary breadth, The Oxford Handbook of Chinese Psychology will become the essential sourcebook for any scholar or practitioner attempting to understand the psychological functioning of the world's largest ethnic group.
Download or read book Violence written by Diane Deanda and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand violence within its cultural context! To reduce violence, we need to understand what it is, where it comes from, and what it means in cultural context. Violence: Diverse Populations and Communities provides new empirical research and theoretical models to help you understand the impact of violence on various ethnic and cultural groups. From the effects of abuse on Latino children to aged Korean-American women's perceptions of elder mistreatment, this comprehensive volume covers all ages, many ethnic groups, and multiple types of violence. Violence: Diverse Populations and Communities looks at such neglected populations as Mexican, Korean, Vietnamese, and Cambodian immigrants as well as Black, Caucasian, and Latino cultures. The forms of violence studied range from the devastation of war to keeping elders isolated for long periods of time and culturally specific forms of abuse. This comprehensive volume also includes a thorough literature review, stressing the need for more research, especially into the needs and experiences of neglected populations, and suggesting fruitful areas for further inquiry. Violence: Diverse Populations and Communities asks and answers complex questions, including: Is war or street violence more traumatic for adolescent refugees from the Khmer Rouge? What social support benefits do street gangs offer their members? How do cultural expectations of male and female roles affect dating violence? What culturally sensitive interventions best address the needs of a Latina rape survivor? How do women of various Asian cultures respond to spousal battering? How can practitioners working with elder abuse victims define their roles, objectives, and interventions to accommodate cultural differences? The groundbreaking research in Violence: Diverse Populations and Communities provides an illuminating exploration into the cultural meaning of violence. By questioning standard assumptions and discovering what violence means to those who suffer from it and perpetrate it, practitioners can better serve multicultural client populations. This book will change the way you see violence by helping you understand its manifestations within various cultural contexts.

Download or read book The Influence of Popular Romanticized Media on Adolescent College Students Perceptions of Dating Relationships and Dating Violence written by Brittney Timmons and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An online survey data collection and subsequent analysis were conducted to determine the influences on adolescent college students' perceptions of dating relationships and dating violence. Specifically, the study analyzed whether romanticized media, such as the Twilight series, had an impact on the respondents' perceptions of violent dating relationships. Moreover, this research attempted to identify if there was a relationship between an adolescent college students' perception of their family environment and/or demographics and their own self-reporting on dating violence behaviors. The key findings from this study reveal a significant correlation between dating violence victimization occurrences and dating violence perpetration occurrences. Moreover, this study revealed that as dating violence victimization occurrences went up, perceiving the Twilight relationships as romantic went down. Furthermore, this study revealed there was a significant negative correlation between perceptions that the Twilight relationships were romantic and perceptions that the relationships were violent. Findings contribute to the understanding of adolescent dating violence behaviors, occurrences, and the influences that impact adolescent perceptions in regard to violent, romantic relationships.

Their approach covers contemporary and controversial topics across the lifespan, including maltreatment of male partners by women, of parents, within sexual minority relationships, and on college campuses.
