The present study tries to find out the effect of speaking self-efficacy and gender in speaking activities particularly in English as second/foreign language situation, using questionnaire from Bandura’s Guide for constructing self-efficacy scales. The Samples of this study were 23 male and 27 female college-students from speaking classes.  ANOVA and T-test helped by SPSS 15.0 for windows were employed to investigate speaking self-efficacy, gender and speaking activities. The result showed that the level of speaking self-efficacy both male and female students is moderate. They can moderately perform speaking activities but they think them quite though and difficult. Besides, Sig. for gender scores lower than .05 (.013 < .05), gender gave significant effect towards speaking activities. Yet, not only speaking self-efficacy partially (Sig .162 > .05) but also its simultaneous interaction with gender (Sig .0677 > .05) did not affect significantly towards speaking activities.

This article analyzed the characteristics of Chinese female college students’ English conversation from the perspective of second language acquisition by using some theories of sociolinguistics and discourse analysis. After analysis, it was found that female students used hedges and intensifiers extensively in second language conversations. Additionally, the participants consciously maintained the face of their peers and made the conversation take place in an atmosphere of equality and solidarity. Through the use of deixis, the conversation was well organized and carried out smoothly. The participants changed their roles, gave and took the floors, and offered new information to prolong the conversation. Although female language had many characteristics, it cannot be fully reflected in this sample conducted in a second language.

The study aims at identifying the awareness of female college students about the values ​​of citizenship in Islamic educational thought and the role of colleges of education in strengthening them, The study used the descriptive approach, and the study sample included a random size of (500) female students by 100 students from each university, and the study tool included four axes, the first axis dealt with the awareness of the value of Arab-Islamic culture, and the second axis dealt with the awareness of the importance of the Arabic language, and the third axis dealt with Awareness of the importance of religious events. The fourth axis dealt with the role of colleges of education, as well as relying on arithmetic averages in addition to analyzing multiple variances. All statistical treatments were done using the SPSS (v12) statistical program. The results of the field study showed that the students are very aware of the values ​​of citizenship as well as the role of the colleges of education, as all the averages approached the great end for each dimension, and the results also showed there are no statistically significant differences in the level of students’ awareness of the values ​​of citizenship and the role of colleges of education depending on the variables of the university and the division and interaction between them. In light of the results, the study made some recommendations, including that student activities must be characterized by diversity, with the participation of the largest possible number of students, the curricula should include in their content the values ​​of citizenship, such as collective spirit and commitment to the standards and regulations of society, the students’ curricula should develop the principle of freedom of expression and the culture of dialogue, the university professor’s behavior must match his ideas in educational situations and the necessity of conducting similar studies on other samples such as graduate students and female students in pre-university education stages.

To check on the possibility that relative attractiveness rather than sex of model may have been the determinant of inverse and inverted-U curves observed between ratings of variations of pupil size shown in a male and female model, 170 female students were asked to rate photographs of an attractive and an average looking male model, each of which had been altered to create a continuum of pupil sizes. The results indicated that pattern of mean ratings changed as predicted, as a function of relative attractiveness. This finding identifies a variable which may have partially confounded the results of earlier studies.

A brief dogmatism scale and the Kiddie Machiavellianism Scale were answered by 112 male and 83 female students. The men's Mach scores were higher than the women's. The correlation between dogmatism and Mach— was not significant in either sex; in contrast, the correlation between dogmatism and Mach+ was significant for both sexes, r being significantly greater for the women than for the men. Agreement response set therefore seemed to be involved in the correlations between these scales for both sexes, though more for the women than the men. Factor by factor correlations indicated that for the men, the main other overlap between these two scales was an unflattering view of people, as hypothesized by Christie and Geis; for the women, however, the overlap between the scales was more extensive. The interpretation of this sex difference suggested the possibility that women may be more Machiavellian than their scores suggest and may even be more Machiavellian than men. though their scores typically suggest the opposite.

The aims of this study were to measure the extent of severe eating disorders among female college students, to verify if there is a correlation with two indicators of “pressure to perform” while evaluating a screening instrument. Of 1144 female students, 16.3% scored 20 or above on the EAT-26 scale. Interviews allowed to determine that the positive predictive value of the EAT-26 when coupled with a low self-reported weight is considerably heightened. It was possible to estimate that over the last three years one girl out of 12 has presented severe eating disorders and one in 65 has suffered from anorexia nervosa. The EAT score was significantly correlated with the mother's level of schooling but not with the student's academic discipline.
