English Longitudinal Study

ABSTRACTIn 2012/2013 the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA) included a comprehensive Sexual Relationships and Activities Questionnaire (SRA-Q). A total of 7,079 men and women mainly aged 50 to >90, primarily heterosexual and in a coupled relationship, completed the SRA-Q, answering a series of questions about their attitudes to sexual relationships, their own sexual activities, problems and concerns with sexual functioning, and quality of intimate relationships. The questions aimed to gain insights into the ways in which sexual relations and activities related to health, wellbeing and other lifestyle factors change as people grow older. The primary mode of data collection was a tick box response to a series of questions. However, at the end of the questionnaire an open comment box was provided, which asked respondents whether there was anything else that they would like to say; 1,084 respondents provided additional information and these comments created a unique qualitative data-set. The analysis of the data then illustrated how people's health, relationships, experiences and perceptions of ageing, along with sexual satisfaction, impact on sexual relationships and activities.

Abstract: Marital Sexual Relations within the Perspective of Gender and Islamic Law. This article explains that the rights of sexual relations of men and women within the institutional framework of marriage are the same. The assumption of jurisprudence which is source from several hadith has been adopted as a male hegemony without considering the substance and context of the Hadith. Meanwhile, the Quran describe the balancing of rights of men and women within sexual relationships. This study offers an approach to the study in the case of sexual relations of men and women to look at usûl al-fiqh as a critical foundation in law making. In social and cultural analysis, it can be seen that the construction law is heavily influenced by longstanding habits. Therefore, universal values   should be seen as a response to the formation of the current law.Keywords: sexual relation, Islamic law, genderAbstrak: Hubungan Seksual Suami-Istri dalam Perspektif Gender dan Hukum Islam. Artikel ini menjelaskan bahwa hak-hak hubungan seksual laki-laki dan perempuan dalam kerangka institusi pernikahan adalah setara. Asumsi fikih yang bersumber dari beberapa Hadis diadopsi sebagai hegemoni laki-laki tanpa menimbang substansi dan konteks Hadisnya. Sementara Alquran menjelaskan keseimbangan hak laki-laki dan perempuan dalam hubungan seksual. Studi ini menawarkan suatu pendekatan pada kajian hukum Islam dengan kasus hubungan seksual laki-laki dan perempuan untuk melihat ushul fikih sebagai pondasi kritis dalam pengambilan hukum. Dalam analisis sosial dan budaya terlihat bahwa konstruksi hukum banyak dipengaruhi oleh kebiasaan yang sudah berlangsung lama. Untuk itu, nilai-nilai universal perlu dilihat sebagai jawaban dalam formasi hukum saat ini.Kata Kunci: hubungan seksual, hukum Islam, genderDOI: 10.15408/ajis.v13i2.936

Introducción: La calidad de vida relacionada con la salud se entiende como el efecto funcional y anímico que una enfermedad produce en una persona, incluyendo el tratamiento y cómo este proceso es percibido por la persona, el cual puede estar influido por el género.Objetivo: Determinar la percepción de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud entre hombre y mujeres adultos mayores en la Comarca Lagunera de Coahuila.Método: Estudio cuantitativo y descriptivo de corte transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 100 adultos mayores seleccionados a conveniencia en la escuela de Lic. en Enfermería, U.T. de la Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila y un hospital público de la localidad. Los datos se analizaron en el programa SPSS v22 para Mac, se utilizó estadística descriptiva y la prueba U de Mann-Withney.Resultados: El análisis entre el género y la percepción de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud no observó diferencia significativa (U= 922.00, p=.178); sin embargo, al analizar la calidad de vida por dimensiones, existe diferencia significativa en tres componentes que son movilidad física (U= 812.00, p>.05), dolor (U= 816.00, p>.05) y energía (U= 807.50, p>.05).Conclusiones: En la presente investigación, se puede observar que los hombres y mujeres adultos mayores perciben la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud de una forma muy parecida, sin embargo, se encontró diferencia en algunos componentes que desde el punto de vista de los autores están muy ligados al rol social que cumple una mujer o un hombre adulto mayor.   Introduction: The quality of life related to health is understood as the functional and emotional effect that a disease produces in a person, including treatment and how this process is perceived by the person, which may be influenced by gender.Objective: To determine the perception of quality of life related to health among men and older women in the Comarca Lagunera of Coahuila.Method: Quantitative and descriptive cross-sectional study. The sample was 100 old adults selected at convenience in the Nursing School, U.T. from the Autonomous University of Coahuila and a public hospital in the town. Data were analyzed in the SPSS v22 program for Mac, descriptive statistics and the Mann-Whitney U test were used.Results: The analysis between gender and health-related quality of life perception did not observe a significant difference (U=922.00, p=.178); However, when analyzing the quality of life by dimensions, there is a significant difference in three components that are physical mobility (U= 812.00, p< .05), pain (U= 816.00, p< .05) and energy (U= 807.50, p< .05).Conclusions: In the present investigation, it can be observed that older men and women perceive the quality of life related to health in a very similar way, however, a difference was found in some components that from the point of view of the authors, they are closely linked to the social role played by a woman or an older adult man.
