Religious orientation is an attitude toward religion or religious practices or an integrated set of attitudes and beliefs. As religion emphasizes moral codes designed to instil values such as helping, caring, emotional support and empathy in humans so, the study was designed to investigate the relationship between religious orientation and pro-social behavior of young female students. The study also examines the predicting role of religious orientation in the development of prosocial behavior in young female students. The non-probability purposive sampling technique has been used with correlational research design in order to collect data. Analysis was conducted on SPSS by using sample of N=150 young female students with age ranged 20-26 years (M=23.50, SD=3.43). The results showed religious orientation had significant positive association with pro-social behavior (r=.40, p>.00) in young female students. Meanwhile, the findings revealed that religious orientation was a significant positive predictor of prosocial behavior in young female students. The study implies that such types of religious orientation will develop more awareness in youth of the present era about the development of prosocial behaviors like charity and help to the needy.

This paper uses data from the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972 to analyze whether the percentage of female faculty had an influence on female students' post-undergraduate educational and labor market outcomes. The results show a statistically significant positive association between the percentage of female faculty and the probability that female students would attain an advanced degree. Although the percentage of female faculty had no statistically significant direct effect on labor market earnings, having an advanced degree did have a large, positive impact on earnings.

The current study aimed to determine the predictive relationship of family communication, prosocial behavior, and emotional/behavioral problems in adolescents. A sample of 273 adolescents (girls = 148; boys = 125), aged 11–18 years ( M = 14.41, SD = 1.53) were recruited through multistage sampling strategy. Family Communication Scale, Prosocial Scale, and Youth version of Child Behavior Checklist were used to measure family communication, prosocial behavior, and emotional/behavioral problems, respectively. Results indicated a significant positive association of family communication and prosocial behavior ( p < .001), and a significant negative association of family communication ( p < .001) and prosocial behavior ( p < .001) with emotional/behavioral problems. Moreover, mediation analysis revealed that prosocial behavior partially mediated the relationship between family communication and emotional/behavioral problems ( p < .002). Results are discussed in terms of the manifestation of adolescents' problems in traditional and collectivistic cultures.

A significant amount of existing research has dealt with the negative effects of music on people’s behavior, but only a few studies have shown that music with prosocial lyrics can increase prosocial behavior. This study focuses on the positive effects of music with prosocial lyrics on people in an everyday setting. Based on the general learning model, a field experiment ( N = 256, 66% female) was conducted to test whether people exposed to music with prosocial lyrics engaged in more prosocial behavior by buying more fair trade products compared to regular products than did those exposed to songs with neutral lyrics. Guests of a café were randomly assigned to either the prosocial or the neutral music condition and were monitored by two observers who were instructed to report the prosocial purchase (of fair trade coffee) and tipping behavior of the guests. The results indicated that there is a significant positive association between prosocial behavior and the prosocial lyrics of the songs played. The study shows that it is most likely that music with prosocial lyrics can influence one’s prosocial purchase behavior in an everyday situation. The underlying mechanisms are still poorly researched, but these findings support the theoretical assumptions.

Introduction : Smoking and alcohol consumption among the estate population are considered to be high. However there is little documented evidence on the prevalence of smoking and alcohol consumption among female estate workers in Sri Lanka. The aim of this study was to find out the prevalence of smoking, alcohol and other dugs consumption among female estate workers and to find out factors associated with these habits. Methodology : A community based cross sectional study was carried out with a sample of 928 females on a presumptive prevalence of 10% of alcohol users, using simple random sampling technique. Data was collected by trained field public health midwives using an interviewer administered questionnaire. Statistical analysis of data was carried out using SPSS version 11. Results : The response rate was 97.8%. Prevalence of smoking, alcohol and other drugs were 7.27%, 34.7% and 0% respectively. Among smokers, most smoked cigar (55%), followed by Beedi (39%) and cigarette (6%). None indulged in dangerous drugs like Heroin and cannabis. Most consumed alcoholic beverage was toddy (64%) followed by arrack (31%). Seventy four percent of women stated that they consume alcohol because they were influenced by their husbands. A significant positive association was observed between smoking and (a)illiteracy (p<0.05) (b) marriage(p<0.05) (c) age more than 35 years (p < 0.01) .There was a significant positive association observed between alcohol consumption and (a)illiteracy (p<0.001) (b) marriage(p<0.001) (c) parental drinking (p<0.001).There was a significant positive association between the use of alcohol and dispute within the family (p<0.001) as well as dispute with the neighbours (p<0.01) Conclusion : One third of estate women consume alcohol and 7% indulge in smoking, which is very much more than for the rest of the country. There is an urgent need for health awareness to be implemented in the estate sector to overcome this problem.
