Research in the area of attitudes toward child suicide may aid professionals in helping grieving friends and families and help pinpoint areas where more education maybe needed. This study examined the differences between young men and women in their blaming of parents for a child's suicide. A total of 124 people read one of three scenarios and answered the Youth Suicide Scale (YSS). Results revealed men to be more blaming of parents of a child suicide than were women. There was no main effect for the age of the victim in the scenarios when using the total YSS score, but when using only question four, replicating past use of the YSS, subjects blamed the parents of the 10 year old more than the other two age groups.

Análise da apócope e da síncope em proparoxítonas no falar maranhense. Investigam-se os motivadores linguísticos e extralinguísticos que condicionam o aparecimento do fenômeno na fala de 44 indivíduos (homens e mulheres), naturais de 10 municípios maranhenses, distribuídos igualmente em duas faixas etárias. Baseado teórico-metodologicamente na sociolinguística, o estudo aponta a relevância do traço de articulação da vogal, do contexto fonológico precedente e do contexto fonológico seguinte, daescolaridade e da localidade, como condicionantes do fenômeno. Assim, pôde-se concluir que o fenômeno ocorre em contextos específicos, e não gerais (ARAÚJO, 2007), bem como que os fatores extralinguísticos atuam de forma conjunta sobre o fenômeno investigado, não exercendo, portanto, influência isoladamente.Palavras-chave: Proparoxítonas.

It searches the linguistics and extra linguistics motivators that leads to the emergence of the phenomenon on the speech of 44 individuals (men and women), born and raised in 10 different cities of Maranhão, equally distributed into two age groups. Methodologically based on the sociolinguistics theory, the paper highlights the relevancy of vowel articulation feature, precedent phonological context, following phonological context, schooling and locality as relevant towards the phenomenon appearance. Thus, it concludes that the phenomenon occurs in specific contexts, not in general (ARAÚJO, 2007), as well as the extra linguistics variables acting as a group with the other variables, not carrying out, therefore, the influence isolated.Keywords: Proparoxitones.

Sex Role Stereotyping

A study of attitudes toward cultural values and of personal characteristics of men and women over 30 years of age and under 30 years of age showed that men in both age groups and women over 30 years of age are similar in attitudes but that women under 30 years of age are different from all three other groups. The young women are much less traditionally oriented in their attitudes than the other three groups.

Two Age Groups

In contrast to previous studies which addressed separately memory for source and referent, the present experiment analyzes the effects of aging on memory for both, source and referent. The experiment simulated a conversation between two people exchanging descriptors of themselves and the other speaker (e.g., “I am helpful,” “you are capable”). Participants (N = 60) were divided into two age groups: younger (M = 23.47 years old, SD = 2.37), older (M = 70.30 years old, SD = 3.73). Recall, recognition, and accuracy in identifying source (e.g., “who said helpful?”) and referent (e.g., “about whom was capable said?”) were analyzed. Younger and older adults recalled and recognized equally well information read by the experimenter about herself, but only young adults showed better memory for the descriptors they read about themselves. Older adults were impaired in source monitoring, but not in reference discrimination. Normal referent discrimination in older adults is attributed to the fact that the referent forms part of the content of the episode, whereas who spoke it is part of its context, and older adults tend to show greater deficits in context than in content memory. These results are explained within the source and reality monitoring framework.

Abstract Tardigrades may be divided into the following feeding groups: herbivores, carnivores and omnivores. However, little is known about their specific feeding preferences. Here, we used a number of laboratory experiments with 18 potential food sources, representing a wide variety of organisms, to test feeding preferences, survival and fecundity of three tardigrade species, representing different feeding modes. We also tested for differences in preferences between juveniles and adults, and differences in survival between two age groups: one that started the experiment as juveniles and the other as adults. In our experiments, Milnesium inceptum is confirmed to be a carnivore, being able to reproduce only on animal prey. We also show that Hypsibius exemplaris is a herbivore, feeding on cyanobacteria, algae and fungi. Paramacrobiotus fairbanksi, on the other hand, is demonstrated to be an omnivore, feeding on cyanobacteria, algae, fungi and animals. In some cases, juveniles preferred different types of food than adults. Reproduction was strongly affected by food type. Finally, we demonstrate that tardigrades may ingest food types that they are not able to digest. Thus, gut content analysis may be misleading as a method of studying tardigrade feeding habits.

Two Age Groups

The purpose of the study: to study the influence of the level of education on the degree of compliance of the population of older age groups. Materials of research. Data from a survey of 1,045 people of both sexes aged 60 years and older were used. The proposed questionnaire included three questions that characterize the level of compliance with medical recommendations, as well as the attitude to self-medication. The results were evaluated for men and women separately in two age groups of 60–74 years and 75 years and older. Results. Women are more compliant with the doctor's prescriptions, as they are more likely to perform them in full. With increasing age, the degree of compliance significantly increases in both men and women, and therefore, the differences between the sexes are leveled. The level of education affects the behavior in relation to the fulfillment of doctor's appointments only in men in the age group of 75 years and older and does not affect the age group of 60–74 years. In women, there was no significant effect in both age groups. Men and women with higher levels of education are more likely to make doctor's appointments only in some cases. A greater proportion of non-respondents, that is, doubters, is also observed in the group of men and women with a high level of education, regardless of age. The results of responses to specific questions concerning the degree of compliance confirmed earlier conclusions about the greater degree of compliance of older women compared to men. A large proportion of doubting men and women with a high level of education, regardless of age, requires a more attentive attitude to them in terms of providing additional information about the need and importance of following doctor's prescriptions.

The Relationship

1D:3D and 2D:4D finger ratios of a hand are widely used for research in the field of predisposition of the individual to certain somatic diseases. 299 young people were surveyed in total with the calculation of the Pignet index, using a flatbed scanner and the author's program HandScaner. As part of the study, it was identified that the finger indices of 1D:3D in young men is significantly greater than that of girls in the hypersthenic group by 2% (p<0.05). Finger index of 1D:3D is more by 1% in young men in the normosthenic group, in the asthenic group, the finger index of 1D:3D is more in girls by 1% (p>0.05). When studying the index 2D:4D, there were no statistically significant differences between the left and right hands in young men and women (p>0.05), as well as the relationship with the type of body build. Despite this, many foreign authors note the presence of this connection in males and females in other age groups. In addition, according to foreign authors, this index, as well as in our study, is more in girls in comparison with young men.

This investigation compared the reported communication attitudes of 102 adults in six age groups. Participants completed the Inventory of Communication Attitudes which examines perceptions of self and others in a number of speaking situations. Discriminant analysis procedures were utilized to examine age group differences. Results indicated significant differences across age groups for perceptions of self and perceptions of others. The two age groups most frequently differentiated from the other groups were those persons in their twenties and those in their sixties.
