Book Gender Role Conflict in Adolescent Males

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of gender socialization on psychological functioning has been an area of inquiry since feminist researchers in the 1970s began studying the psychological development of girls and women. This research has established gender as a valuable construct by which psychological development can be understood. As a result, more is known about how growing up female can lead to the development of particular constellations of behaviors, emotions, and experiences, and the atrophying of others. Recently, the impact of gender socialization on boys and men has also become an area of psychological inquiry. However, researchers are just beginning to delineate the gender-specific developmental pathway for males and its accompanying constellations of behaviors, emotions, and experiences. This study will contribute to this growing body of literature by examining the ways in which masculine socialization and its prohibitions against expressing emotional vulnerability affects boys' perceptions of peers and themselves. A sample of adolescent males will be given the Gender Role Conflict Scale for Adolescents (GRCS-A) to measure the amount and type of distress experienced in comparing themselves to the socialized masculine ideal. Participants will then view a videotaped vignette of an adolescent boy expressing vulnerable feelings and behaviors contrary to this ideal. Following the video, participants will describe the boy in the video using the 300-word Adjective Check List (ACL). Pearson product moment correlations will be used to test ten hypotheses related to participants' degrees of gender role conflict and its relationship to five particularly salient ACL subscale scores. Exploratory analysis will also be done using frequency distributions to look at the ten adjectives most frequently used to rate the boy in the video. It is hoped that this study will offer more insight into how gender socialization impacts adolescent boys' identity development, as well as their perceptions of non-traditional masculine behavior.

Book Men s Gender Role Conflict

Download or read book Men s Gender Role Conflict written by James M. O'Neil and published by Amer Psychological Assn. This book was released on 2015 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men's gender role conflict is a psychological state in which restrictive definitions of masculinity limit men's well-being and human potential. Gender role conflict (GRC) doesn't just harm boys and men, but also girls and women, transgendered people, and society at large. Extensive research relates men's GRC to myriad behavioral problems, including sexism, violence, homophobia, depression, substance abuse, and relationship issues. This book represents a call to action for researchers and practitioners, graduate students, and other mental healthcare professionals to confront men's GRC and reduce its harmful influence on individuals and society. James O'Neil is a pioneer in men's psychology who conceptualized GRC and created the Gender Role Conflict Scale. In this book, he combines numerous studies from renowned scholars in men's psychology with more than 30 years of his own clinical and research experience to promote activism and challenge the status quo. He describes multiple effects of men's GRC, including success, power, and competition issues restricted emotionality restricted affectionate behavior between men conflicts between men's work and family relations. O'Neil also explains when GRC can develop in a man's gender role journey, how to address it through preventative programs and therapy for boys and men, and what initiatives researchers and clinicians can pursue.

Book Rethinking Children  Violence and Safeguarding

Download or read book Rethinking Children Violence and Safeguarding written by Lorraine Radford and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-05 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethinking Children, Violence and Safeguarding explores the victimization of children as well as children who use violence towards others and presents an overview of key developments in research, policy and practice within the context of the recent major shift in thinking from 'child protection' towards 'safeguarding' and evidencing better outcomes. The gaps between rhetoric and practice are considered and Lorraine Radford argues that the way we 'think' about children and violence has had a profound impact on actions against the abuse of children and children who commit violence. Examples of research, reflections on research and key points and guidance on further reading make this a really accessible text. Rethinking Children, Violence and Safeguarding is essential reading for those studying childhood and undergraduate and graduate level, and will be of great interest to those working with children in any field.

  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2019-07-26
  • ISBN : 0309490111
  • Pages : 493 pages

Download or read book The Promise of Adolescence written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescenceâ€"beginning with the onset of puberty and ending in the mid-20sâ€"is a critical period of development during which key areas of the brain mature and develop. These changes in brain structure, function, and connectivity mark adolescence as a period of opportunity to discover new vistas, to form relationships with peers and adults, and to explore one's developing identity. It is also a period of resilience that can ameliorate childhood setbacks and set the stage for a thriving trajectory over the life course. Because adolescents comprise nearly one-fourth of the entire U.S. population, the nation needs policies and practices that will better leverage these developmental opportunities to harness the promise of adolescenceâ€"rather than focusing myopically on containing its risks. This report examines the neurobiological and socio-behavioral science of adolescent development and outlines how this knowledge can be applied, both to promote adolescent well-being, resilience, and development, and to rectify structural barriers and inequalities in opportunity, enabling all adolescents to flourish.

Book Gender Role Conflict and College Men

Download or read book Gender Role Conflict and College Men written by Jeffrey Harlan Sellers and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many young men struggle with mental health issues including depression, anxiety, substance abuse and suicide. Further research has shown that many men have an aversion to help seeking, placing them at greater risk for unresolved mental health issues. In the past thirty years, the Gender Role Conflict framework and related research has emphasized the impact of societal gender roles on men's psychological problems. Higher education counselors who are familiar with Gender Role Conflict theory and related research will have a potentially useful skill set in counseling male students. This document overviews the Gender Role Conflict paradigm and highlights the most relevant literature for college counselors. Further, practical ideas are offered to help guide counselors in their work with college males, and suggestions for future research are also provided.
