Book The Role of Cultural Values and Motives in Dating Violence Among South Asian and White Males

Download or read book The Role of Cultural Values and Motives in Dating Violence Among South Asian and White Males written by Manveen Kaur Dhindsa and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One in four women will experience violence at the hands of their male partner in their lifetime (National Coalition Against Domestic Violence; NCADV). Women between the ages of 20-24 are at the greatest risk for being abused; 86% of women in dating relationships are victims of some form of abuse from their boyfriends (NCADV). Although violence in the general population has been addressed quite extensively, relatively little attention has been paid to this issue among ethnic minority groups such as Asian-Americans, in particular South Asians. South Asians' cultural orientation which emphasizes values such as honor and face may place them at a greater risk for engaging in abuse. The current study examined dating abuse among 131 South Asian males and 132 White males. Secondly, the role of honor, face, and primary control was examined in relation to abuse to determine common and unique risk factors for abuse among both groups. Results from a negative binomial regression indicated that there was no direct effect of ethnicity on abuse. However, there was an indirect effect of ethnicity on abuse through attitudes toward dating violence. South Asians had more positive views toward using violence against their partners than Whites, and individuals with these attitudes were more likely to abuse their partners. Finally, the value of face emerged as the only common risk factor. Experiencing abuse from parents was related to relationship abuse for South Asians; valuing primary control, having favorable attitudes towards dating violence, male peer support, and using alcohol were related to relationship abuse for Whites. Implications for treatment and prevention programs are discussed.

This book was released on 2013-11-08 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking book on the gender-inclusive treatment of intimate partner abuse has been fully updated to reflect new and refined evidence-based approaches that have evolved since the first edition was published nearly ten years ago. It describes new treatment protocols that are strongly supported by current research that enables mental health practitioners to engage in a more nuanced-and gender inclusive conceptualization and treatment of intimate partner abuse in its many permutations.

It presents the latest findings from the third installment of the Partner Abuse State of Knowledge Project. Included are new examples of evidence-based programs currently in existence and those that are in formative stages, fully updated exercises and handouts, new risk assessment instruments, and new definitions of evidence-based treatment.

Book Color Matters

    Book Details:
  • Author : Kimberly Jade Norwood
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2013-12-17
  • ISBN : 131781956X
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book Color Matters written by Kimberly Jade Norwood and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, as in many parts of the world, people are discriminated against based on the color of their skin. This type of skin tone bias, or colorism, is both related to and distinct from discrimination on the basis of race, with which it is often conflated. Preferential treatment of lighter skin tones over darker occurs within racial and ethnic groups as well as between them. While America has made progress in issues of race over the past decades, discrimination on the basis of color continues to be a constant and often unremarked part of life. In Color Matters, Kimberly Jade Norwood has collected the most up-to-date research on this insidious form of discrimination, including perspectives from the disciplines of history, law, sociology, and psychology. Anchored with historical chapters that show how the influence and legacy of slavery have shaped the treatment of skin color in American society, the contributors to this volume bring to light the ways in which colorism affects us all--influencing what we wear, who we see on television, and even which child we might pick to adopt. Sure to be an eye-opening collection for anyone curious about how race and color continue to affect society, Color Matters provides students of race in America with wide-ranging overview of a crucial topic.

Book Men s Gender Role Conflict

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.
