Download or read book Gender and Development written by Patrick Leman and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children are born into a world infused with gendered information. An understanding of what it is to be a boy or girl can be critical in forming social relationships, social identities, and learning how to think and behave. Gender and Development is an important new volume that charts how children practice these gendered identities at different ages and in different social contexts Taking a socio-cognitive approach, and integrating both theoretical and applied perspectives, the book looks at a range of contexts in which gender affects development and socialisation, from the child’s place in the family unit and their interaction with parents and siblings, to the influence of communication with peers over the internet. Throughout the chapters an age-old issue is addressed through a contemporary, empirically focused perspective – namely the nature and extent of equality between the genders, and how difficult it is for attitudes, perceptions and stereotypes to change. Key social issues are covered, including pro-social behaviour, career choice and academic competencies. Gender and Development brings together some of the latest research in this important and enduring field of study. It is a timely and invaluable collection, and will be essential reading for all students and research in developmental psychology, social psychology and gender studies.

Download or read book Sedentary Behaviour Epidemiology written by Michael F. Leitzmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the origins, determinants and magnitude of the global problem of sedentary behaviour, along with concise yet in-depth solutions for tackling it. As a consequence of major technological advances in modern society, many people find themselves in environments characterized by prolonged sedentary behaviour. Although inadequate exercise has long been known to cause adverse health consequences, sedentary behaviour has recently emerged as a risk factor for the development of numerous chronic diseases and health conditions. Building on the contributions of leading experts in the field, this book presents current knowledge about sedentary behaviour, its medical and public health significance, its correlates and determinants, measurement techniques, and recommendations for addressing this behaviour at the individual, community, environmental, and policy level. Applying a cross-disciplinary methodology, the book avoids considering physical activity and sedentary behavior as a single continuum, which potentially hampers progress in confronting widespread levels of sedentariness. Rather, the book helps readers better understand how sedentary and physically active behavior co-occur and how the two behaviours have distinct contributing factors. Building on the contributions of distinguished international experts in the field, this thorough resource is a valuable asset and challenges professionals, researchers, students, and practitioners alike to adopt new strategies and expand their reach.

Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2024 im Fachbereich Gesundheit - Public Health, Note: 1,0, FOM Hochschule für Oekonomie & Management gemeinnützige GmbH, Köln, Veranstaltung: Digitalisierung im Gesundheitswesen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Unsere Arbeitswelt wird stets durch äußere Trends verändert. Die Digitalisierung nimmt Einfluss auf die Beschäftigungsformen, die Menge und Inhalt von Arbeit sowie die Arbeitsbedingungen und -anforderungen. Während die Bundesregierung den digitalen Wandel zu einer der zentralen Aufgaben gemacht hat, haben die Unternehmen einen teilweise begrenzten Handlungsspielraum auf die äußeren Faktoren. Jedoch bieten sich für die Unternehmen unterschiedliche Möglichkeiten an, um die Arbeitsbedingungen und das Gesundheitsverhalten der Belegschaft unter Mithilfe der Digitalisierung positiv zu verändern. Das betriebliche Gesundheitsmanagement (BGM) dient als betriebsinternes Steuerungselement, um die Beschäftigten nachhaltig gesund zu erhalten und zur Höchstleistung zu motivieren. Inwiefern die Digitalisierung das BGM beeinflusst, welche aktuellen und zukünftigen Herausforderungen und Chancen daraus folgen und welche Weiterentwicklungspotenziale sich anbieten, sind Bestandteile der Untersuchung innerhalb dieser Seminararbeit.

Download or read book Last Well Person written by Nortin M. Hadler and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2004-08-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hadler systematically builds the case that many medical interventions are hazardous to our health. Especially insidious is the misuse of longevity statistics in turning the difficulties experienced through a natural course of life, such as aging and osteoporosis, into illnesses. He argues that unfounded assertions and flagrant marketing have led to the medicalization of everyday life and he offers practical solutions on such topics as aging, obesity, adult onset diabetes, and back problems. In The Last Well Person Hadler addresses the tough questions about our health care, cutting through the medical white noise.
