Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined marital satisfaction and its relationship to the similarity in personality traits between spouses. Participants completed a self-report questionnaire on attitudes, traits, preferences and skills in order to explore the following hypotheses. When spouses are similar on basic traits of personality, does it make for a happier marriage? Are persons more focused on interior or social qualities of a mate when selecting their spouse? Does this selection strategy make for a happier marriage? Does a person's own trait of spirituality indicate a focus on interior qualities for mate selection? The results of this study showed that similarity in the areas of spirituality, openness, and agreeableness had predictive power for relationship to marital adjustment across both genders. Additionally, similarity in conscientiousness predicted marital satisfaction for men and similarity in neuroticism predicted marital satisfaction for women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the 2006 GREAT GERONTOLOGY AWARD for outstanding contribution to gerontological research by the Swedish Gerontological Society Received a VALUE GROUND AWARD from the journal Aldreomsorg (Old Age Care) Expanding upon his earlier writings, Dr. Tornstam's latest book explores the need for new theories in gerontology and sets the stage for the development of his theory of gerotranscendence. This theory was developed to address what the author sees as a perpetual mismatch between present theories in social gerontology and existing empirical data. The development towards gerotranscendence can involve some overlooked developmental changes that are related to increased life satisfaction, as self-described by individuals. The gerotranscendent individual typically experiences a redefinition of the Self and of relationships to others and a new understanding of fundamental existential questions: The individual becomes less self-occupied and at the same time more selective in the choice of social and other activities. There is an increased feeling of affinity with past generations and a decreased interest in superfluous social interaction. The individual might also experience a decrease in interest in material things and a greater need for solitary "meditation.î Positive solitude becomes more important. There is also often a feeling of cosmic communion with the spirit of the universe, and a redefinition of time, space, life and death. Gerotranscendence does NOT imply any state of withdrawal or disengagement, as sometimes erroneously believed. It is not the old disengagement theory in new disguise. Rather, it is a theory that describes a developmental pattern beyond the old dualism of activity and disengagement. The author supports his theory with insightful qualitative in-depth interviews with older persons and quantitative studies. In addition, Tornstam illustrates the practical implications of the theory of gerotranscendence for professionals working with older adults in care settings. A useful Appendix contains suggestions of how to facilitate personal development toward gerotranscendence. For Further Information, Please Click Here!

It is important because it is directly associated with the survival of human race. That is why marriage is a top most concern for the society. To tie in a knot is quite easy but it's difficult to and maintains a healthy and satisfaction relationship with the partner. This topic covers marital adjustment, maladjustment, marital satisfaction and dissatisfaction. So, many disciplines like sociology, psychology, home science and education are involved in finding out various constructs of marital satisfaction. Definition of Marriage Rosen-Grandon et al., (2004) has outlined, "marriage has been delineated as one of the most vital and essential human relationships. It provides the advantage of child rearing for the next generation and form the primary structure for establishing a family relationship". Sexton (1992) outlined, "Marriage as a legal term describing bound relationship regarding people so as to meet three differing kinds of needs: emotional, sexual and psychological". Glenn and Weaver (1979) outlined, "Marriage is found to be one in all the strongest correlates of happiness and well being". Argyle and Furnham (1983) outlined, "Marriage is that the greatest supply of social support for many individuals quite friends or together with emotional and married support and companionship". 18 Kennedy, Glares, and Glaser et al. (1990) defined for those who are married, the spouse is involved in and instrumental in a wide range of other satisfaction including sex and leisure. Being in love is the greatest source of positive emotion. Marriage is a very important from health point of view, as it results in better health behavior. Married people drink and smoke less have a better diet and do what the doctor orders. Marital satisfaction Marital satisfaction is linked to the happiness of the partners which is shared with, resolution of conflict and emotional support. Further, one can say that, it is one of the most important features which lead to the overall satisfaction in marital life of the person (Fowers & Olson, 1993, Argyle & Furnham, 1983). It reflects the suitable advantages and outlay of benefits in marriage to a particular person. Similarly, if one perceives greater benefits of marriage, one can achieve greater and more satisfying with in marital life and with the partner (Stone & Shackelford, 2007). The marital relationship is one of the most significant and unique relation among all human relationships. It is not only a mere convention, but also an implicit condition in all human society. The relationship between husband and wife is a very specific context and involves a complex process of adjustment. Thus, one can say that satisfaction with one's marriage is an important component of well-being (Byadgi, 2011). Definition of marital satisfaction Bhar and Leigh (1978) defined, "marital satisfaction as subjective evaluation of the overall quality of marriage. It is a degree to which the needs, desires and expectations are met in,

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assessment of individual differences has a long history. As early as 2200 B.C. the Chinese were employing methods to select candidates for civil service positions. Over the ensuing centuries philosophers, theologians, and the nobility all noticed and debated the role of "character" in shaping the destiny and quality of individual lives. This interest spawned widely different methods of evaluating the timbre of temperament-bumps on the head, lines on the hand, shape of the body-all of which were em ployed in attempts to gain insight into basic human motives. The emer gence of the scientific method and its application to this endeavor reinvigorated society's efforts in this direction, and an abundant variety of assessment instruments consequently became available. The outbreak of World War I created a need for the efficient assess ment of individual differences in large groups. Such instruments as the Woodworth Personal Data Sheet and the Army Alpha Test resulted in gen uine breakthroughs in assessment technology. These tests provided stan dardized sets of items that permitted quantitative comparisons among people. Over the years, numerous scales have been developed which have been based on widely differing levels of psychometric sophistication.
