The Family

Fifty Israeli female college students participated in a study aimed at assessing women's personal aspirations about self-identity as compared with their perception of mother and father. Results lead to the construction of a model of identity development, along Piaget's formulations, in which the mother is perceived as mainly responsible for the concrete stage of her children's development by fulfilling, within the family circle, nurturant and affective functions, while the father symbolizes a further step of development by combining also intellectual-abstract qualities and effective interactions outside the home. Each stage of development is successively built on top of the other, incorporating in its system the earlier stage. The subjects, especially first and only daughters, expressed a wish pattern of self-characteristics very similar to that perceived in their fathers. This could indicate their striving to combine both feminine and masculine characteristics.

The Mean

A Privacy Questionnaire was administered to 118 male and 142 female college students to determine differences in the patterns of privacy preferences between the sexes. The questionnaire contained factor scales for measuring six independent types of privacy. t-tests showed that the means for women were significantly higher than those for men in their preferences for Intimacy with Family and Intimacy with Friends. On the other hand, for Isolation the mean for men was significantly higher than that for women. There were no significant differences between the means for the two sexes on the remaining three dimensions, Reserve, Solitude, and Anonymity.

Dating Couples

An attempt was made to determine how dating couples widely discrepant in age are perceived. In the first study, 40 male and 40 female college students were asked to read a vignette where the older protagonists were described as either wealthy or had an average income. Sex was also manipulated so that the male was older in half (he conditions and younger for the other half. A second study with 30 older females as subjects utilized two vignettes with the older protagonists being male in half the conditions and female in the other half. Results indicated that sex and age of subjects were significantly related to how age-discrepant couples are perceived by these two groups. Role salience and role identification are influential.

Affective Orientation

Based on the responses of 118 male and 79 female college students, a factor analysis of the 40 sex-typed items from the Bem Sex-role Inventory and sex of respondent yielded four factors which were almost identical to those reported by Waters, Waters, and Pincus (1977). One of the factors essentially represented the gender of the respondent. A second factor representing an expressive, affective orientation was defined by feminine sex-typed items. The other two factors were primarily defined by masculine sex-typed items. One stressed independence, self-sufficiency, and individuality while the other stressed leadership, aggressiveness, and forcefulness. These latter factors were interpreted in terms of an “agentic” orientation (Bakan, 1966) and an “instrumental” orientation (Parsons & Bales, 1955).

Without proper stimulation, self-identity formation in adolescents may lead to inferiority, and further to the mental health problem. It is important to give positive stimulation for adolescents and psychoeducation for the family properly and effectively to improve adolescence identity development. As we know, adolescence is a period of age which is considered to be problematic and crucial for them to set their remarkable foundation regarding the interaction with the surrounding people and environment. This research was aimed to find out the result of therapeutic group therapy for adolescent and family psychoeducation toward the improvement of adolescence development. A case report was used as the method of the research, in which 5 clients were given health education care according to the problem faced by the family during the adolescence development stimulation. The special therapy given was the adolescence therapeutic group therapy and family psychoeducation. The result of therapeutic group therapy is the ability to improve family and adolescence self-identity development within the 10 aspects of adolescence stage; biological, psychosexual, cognitive, language, moral, spiritual, emotional, psychosocial, talent, and creativity. The result of the research was expected to be an input for the Department of Health, especially for the administrator of the community health program in dealing with adolescence mental problems. The research is also expected to be the evidence-based practice in the community of mental health nursing.

This study used 224 students who selected using proportionate cluster sampling. The data were collected using the academic integrity questionnaire with five dimensions, namely honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility. The questionnaire consisted of 39 items with a Likert modification scale (four options). The result of this study showed that the academic integrity of Buddhist College students in Indonesia was supported by the fairness dimension. The academic integrity both of male and female college students were supported by the fairness dimension, and neither was based on the department, the academic integrity both of Dharmacarya and Dharmaduta students were supported by the fairness dimension. Generally, the academic integrity of Buddhist college students in Indonesia was supported by the fairness dimension which included fairness form lecturers, fairness in expressing opinions, and transparency of the values in the lecture process. Nevertheless, both the honesty and the trust dimension need to be considered because they got a lower score than the other dimensions.

Positive Evaluation

People typically reject being negatively stereotyped but overlook the ways in which they are positively stereotyped. The current study focused on the attitude of Chinese women toward being evaluated based on the traditional positive stereotype that women are virtuous; family/work centrality as a boundary condition of these attitudes; and three perceptions that may mediate the link between this type of evaluation and attitudes of women. In experiment 1, female college students were identified as work-oriented or family-oriented based on their responses to a questionnaire regarding their focus on these two domains. They then read a vignette in which a man evaluated a female target under random assignment to one of three conditions, namely: group positive stereotype evaluation, individual positive stereotype evaluation, or unstereotypical positive evaluation. The participants rated how much they liked the female target, as an indicator of their attitude toward evaluations based on the stereotype that women are virtuous. In experiment 2, female college students were classified as work- oriented or family-oriented, and then read a vignette in which a man (the target) evaluated them. They were randomly assigned to the group positive stereotype evaluation, individual positive stereotype evaluation, or unstereotypical positive evaluation. Participants rated how much they liked the male target, as an indicator of their attitude toward evaluations based on the positive stereotype that women are virtuous. Across both studies, ANOVA showed that work-oriented women liked evaluations based on both group and individual stereotypes less than the family-oriented women. Regression-based analyses showed evidence of a mediation process in which work-oriented women viewed the virtuous positive stereotype as implying a prescriptive social demand that women should engage in family roles, resulting in a negative reaction to this type of evaluation.

Accuracy Level

The ability to infer the sex of the writer from cursive handwriting was examined under a range of conditions. In 5 experiments male and female college students were able to perform this task at the 75% accuracy level even with small amounts of material, sometimes only a single letter or a single geometric pattern. On the other hand, age of the writer was just barely discernible from handwriting. It was suggested that sex or gender is present in handwriting in much the same way as it is present in movement of the whole body.

Individual Personality

A purported individual “personality” assessment of male and female college students resulted in communications that showed standings on either a positive (masculinity or femininity) or a negative (hostility) personality characteristic that were discrepant from Ss' initial self-ratings. Post-communication self-ratings showed acceptance of the negative communication, and failure of the positive communication to have an effect. Degree of communication discrepancy did not affect the results. Two replications of the study, one with a male and the other with a female communicator, were carried out.
