People have the tendencies to be involved or engaged in transgression. While some may be forgiving and move forward, others hold grudges, resentment, or feel remorse. In the context of social, behavioral science, this is worth investigating. Thus, this study aimed at analyzing the indicatives of forgivingness in a transgression-related act and if these are associated with Gender and age. The main instrument used is the Transgression Narrative Test of Forgivingness (TNTF) which is a tool to measure forgivingness of the Meranao living in Lanao del Sur, Philippines. The respondents were the 150 Meranao Students (senior high and college students). This study employed a quantitative design that described, compared and correlated variables. Findings indicated that Meranao students are most forgiving towards scenarios in which a transgressor causes a friend to fail in the submission of a job application and least forgiving towards a scenario where a transgressor causes one of the family members to die. Meranaos’ age range from 15 to 25 shows no difference in forgivingness between men and women. Results showed a very weak association in age groups. Future researchers may use other situational scales and tools to identify further results and use comprehensive age groups (young, middle-age, and old adult) examining respondents’ forgivingness and its significant differences.

New scientific data on the modern epizootic situation on helminthoses of sheep of the breed Edilbayevskaya introduced on the territory of Altai region are provided. To study the contamination of animals with helminths, ovoliroscopic methods commonly used in parasitology were applied. In total 889 fecal samples received from sheep of different gender and age groups are investigated. Gelminthocomplex of animals is characterized by a variety. Tapeworms include parasites of the suborder Anoplocephalata, the family Anoplocephalidae, the genus Moniezia (M. brodeni, M. expanza) and the family Avitellinidae of the genus Thysaniezia (Thysaniezia giardi). Roundworms belong to the Strongylata suborder and are represented by 4 genera nematodes – Nematodirus, Ostertagia, Hemonchus, Oesophagostomum. The infection of lambs with helminths, including Nematodirus spp. and Moniezia spp. in 1.6–3.8 times more than at adult animals also makes respectively 48.1; 42.9 and 15.8%. A distinction of the sheep hermitage of the breed Edilbaevskaya is the low level of infection of animals with strangulates of the gastrointestinal tract, including esophagostomies (0.19%), ostertagies (1.3%), and hemones (0.2%). The dominating and subdominating components of helminthocomplex are Nematodirus spp. and Moniezia spp. For the first time the Skrjabinema ovis is registered in territory of Altai region.

The Project UNIQUE Physical Fitness Test was administered to 153 hard of hearing, 892 deaf, and 686 hearing subjects in the age range of 10 to 17 years to contrast their physical fitness status. Relatively few significant differences between groups were found. Only on the sit-up test did hearing subjects surpass the performance of at least one of the two auditory impaired groups in at least two of the three age groups contrasted. Although some gender and age interactions were found on other test items, no clear pattern relative to a comparison of hearing and auditory impaired groups occurred. Age and gender performances within the auditory impaired groups were similar to those expected of hearing groups.

Self-compassion is a recently developed construct of positive psychology. Several studies have shed light on their benefits on people’s psychological well-being. Furthermore, studies have focused on examining changes in self-compassion according to gender, in specific age groups, demonstrating inconsistent results. The present study aimed to investigate the interaction between self-compassion and gender, overtime, in a wide age range of adulthood. The sample consisted of 291 participants, age range between 18 and 72 years of age, of the general population. The participants completed online self-report questionnaires of the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) (Neff, 2003b). Overall results revealed that self-compassion levels were higher for men than women. In addition, self-compassion was positively correlated with age, while older men, of 50 years and above, demonstrated higher self-compassion levels compared to younger age groups. The findings suggest the prudence of self-compassion on psychological prosperity. It is also proposed that the outcomes could contribute to the design of more informed, structured, and well-established intervention planning, targeting groups according to age and gender, which appear to be the most vulnerable. Finally, probable suggestions for further investigation are considered.

Background: Healthy eating is essential for individuals’ physical as well as psychological wellbeing. Women’s focus on achieving thin ideal physique and men’s aspiration for muscular body is likely to impact their food intake and consequently Nutritional Quality of Life (NQoL). Moreover, NQoL varies across different age groups owing to the varying nutritional needs with increasing age. Investigating NQoL across gender and age has useful implications for health counseling and practice. Objectives| To investigate differences in nutritional quality of life among gender and different age groups. To investigate gender and age group differences in knowledge of nutritional value of food. Methodology| A descriptive cross-sectional research was conducted. The sample consisted of 200 participants i.e., 100 younger adults between age range of 18-23 years and 100 older adults between age range of 40-60 years. Gender of participants was equally represented in both age groups. Nutritional Quality of Life (NQoL) Instrument and a self-developed Nutritional Knowledge Questionnaire were administered on the sample to collect data. Results| Mean age of younger adults was 19.17 ± 1.18 and for older adults it was 48.17 ± 5.20. Findings showed that women scored significantly higher on psychological factor and social impact whereas men scored significantly higher on food impact and self-efficacy impact of NQoL. Moreover younger adults scored higher on self-efficacy than older adults and older adults scored higher on food impact, social impact, psychological factor and physical functioning than younger adults. Also interaction of gender and age was significant regarding knowledge of nutritional value of food; older women and younger men had more knowledge of nutritional value of food than younger women and older men. Conclusions| There were significant differences in nutritional quality of life. Also knowledge of nutritional value of food varied across gender and age groups.

The relevance of the distribution of clothing, designed in the style of Family look, is the result of the social demand for expressing family values by the consumers. Updating this style requires the introduction of new types of combinations of the system of artistic images and the development of an assortment concept of creating a capsule wardrobe. The problem of style modernization eliminates such classification features as gender, age, range. The image level of motivation in choosing the range of Family look style is based on the principle of “unisex”, which is due to the condition of the ensemble of the standard items set. The capsule approach to novelty of a family wardrobe provides stylistic balance of subject combinations due to the optimization of qualitative characteristics of a typical set in the Family look style. On the basis of normative definitions of components of family wardrobe the nomenclature of principles of identification of imagery of Family look models is formed. The application of the principle of ensemble of a capsule of a standard set in social function of clothes of Family look on the bases of hierarchy of structure of designing levels is considered: object, gender and age signs, social group, application of subjects. A typological series of options for combining assortment units in the gender and age groups of family members has been developed. The mirror image of the “unisex” principle has been studied by the method of uneven scaling of the areas of standard kits in the grid of product dimensions by the coefficient of proportionality in gender and age groups. A verification database for determining the harmony of the standard set has been developed, which differentiates the information for the scaling procedure: the appearance of the model, assortment units (top, bottom), models’ area, the coefficient of proportionality. The identification methods of the harmony of the typographic set have been offered: rhythm metrics, dimensional copying of the mirror image, stylistic harmony of subject combinations. Quantitative parameters of proportional ratios of areas of assortment units do not contradict the proportions of control measurements of design dimensions. The proposed technique can be recommended as a basic one in the development of a capsule wardrobe and in determining the items harmony.

Objectives: To compare the frequency of congenital ptosis of Pakistani children with the children of the world. Study Design: Comparative study. Setting: Al Shifa Tertiary Eye Hospital Rawalpindi. Period: August 2013 to September 2016. Material & Methods: The record of admitted patients of all malformations of eyes was collected from pediatric eye department from age zero to 15 years. The data of each eye malformation was documented separately as per age and gender. The total numbers of eye malformations were arranged according to prevalence, age and gender. The data was analyzed separately for frequency, age and gender. All data was analyzed and arranged according to percentage of frequency, gender and age. The age data was analyzed making different age groups. Seven groups of age were made with 2 years difference between each group starting from age 0 to 15 years. The number of male and females were calculated in each age group. Total numbers of each malformation was calculated separately and percentage of each malformation calculated as per simple mathematical way to total malformations. Results: The data of five hundreds and fourteen congenital malformations of eyes was collected. The numbers of male patients were 289 and female patients were 225. As per percentage the males were 56.2% and females patients were 43.8 %. The patient age range was from age zero to fifteen years. The majority of the patients were between ages zero to two years. The total numbers of patients in this age group were 222. Out of 222 patients the males were 120 and females were 102. The total percentage of this age group was 43.2 % among all age groups. The most common frequency of eye malformation was cataract i.e. 116 (22.6 %) patients followed by lacrimal apparatus anomalies i.e. 103(20 %) and ptosis was 45 (8.8 %). Conclusion: The frequency of congenital ptosis is the third most common eye malformation among total eye malformations in this study.

Abstract. Sense of coherence (SOC) describes an individual’s ability to deal with life challenges (manageability), comprehend the environment (comprehensibility), and perceive life and its challenges as meaningful (meaningfulness). We examine measurement invariance (MI) of the SOC-13 scale across gender and age groups in a matched sample of N = 1,816 (50% females; age range 16–83 years). A two-factor model, with a common factor for manageability/comprehensibility items and a second factor for meaningfulness items, best represented the SOC-13 in all groups. Full metric, partial scalar, and full strict invariance held across gender groups. Across age groups, full metric, partial scalar, and partial strict invariance could be established. We conclude that SOC-13 is a reliable and valid measure. Measurement is comparable across gender and age.

Confirmatory Factor

The present study explores the factorial structure and the degree of measurement invariance of 12 divergent thinking tests. In a large sample of German students (N = 1328), a three-factor model representing verbal, figural, and numerical divergent thinking was supported. Multigroup confirmatory factor analyses revealed that partial strong measurement invariance was tenable across gender and age groups as well as school forms. Latent mean comparisons resulted in significantly higher divergent thinking skills for females and students in schools with higher mean IQ. Older students exhibited higher latent means on the verbal and figural factor, but not on the numerical factor. These results suggest that a domain-specific model of divergent thinking may be assumed, although further research is needed to elucidate the sources that negatively affect measurement invariance.
