Abstract:
Disengagement theory, is the process of individuals withdrawing and isolating from prior social interactions due to age. The disengagement theory of aging states that "aging is an inevitable, mutual withdrawal or disengagement, resulting in decreased interaction between the aging person and others in the social system he belongs to". The theory claims that it is natural and acceptable for older adults to withdraw from society. There are multiple variations in disengagement theory, such as moral disengagement. Disengagement theory was formulated by Cumming and Henry in 1961 in the book Growing

Abstract:
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a public health issue worldwide and a serious violation of human rights. Recognizing IPV as a form of violence is essential for both victims who need help and offenders who can join treatment programs. Furthermore, only a society able to identify violence can effectively deal with IPV. The present study is aimed at investigating the role of sociocultural dimensions (i.e., ambivalent sexism toward women, ambivalence toward men, and lay theories about gender differences) in sustaining myths about IPV and moral disengagement.

Abstract:
The aging process of human being is intertwined with two vital aspects of life experiences; work and retirement when elderly people face greater uncertainties than other age groups as they have to replace themselves in the newer environs with shifting roles. Thus, in this process, researchers have queries whether elderly disengage or withdraw, whether their disengagement or activity brings satisfactions and how is their attitude towards the functionality of disengagement. To measure these, disengagement and activity theories have been used with descriptive research design when respondents were

ABSTRACTThis paper examines how some elderly Chinese tenants in a cluster of housing schemes in the north of England differed in their perception, consciousness and management of time. It examines how there was too much or too little time for some of these tenants and how time played a part in their personal and social identification arising from their experiences of migration. Lefebvre's concept of rhythmanalysis is intended to be a transdisciplinary theory that could be used to theorise ‘everyday life’. The writer superimposes this concept on the activity and disengagement theories of ageing

Abstract:
There has been a long debate among multi-discplinary experts on terrorism regarding how to fight against terrorism. Most experts agreed that terrorism could not be eliminated by military forces as military approach could trigger the emergence of terrorists’ self recycle character. Some psychologists (such as Garfinkel, 2007; John Horgan, 2009; Noricks, 2009; Choudhury, 2009; Nauman, 2010) are of the opinion that deradicalization and disengagement can be used to prevent and encounter terrorism.

Abstract:
According to previous theories of aggression, positive outcome expectancy for aggression can predict aggression, while moral disengagement and negative outcome expectancy for aggression may, respectively, serve as mediators and moderators in this prediction process. To test the hypothesis, Study 1 first developed the Aggression Outcome Expectancy Questionnaire and examined its two-factor structure, which consists of positive and negative outcome expectancy for aggression. Next, 677 college students were recruited to participate in Study 2 and were asked to complete the Aggression Outcome Expec

This chapter considers multiple theories of dehumanization. More specifically, this chapter aims to examine conflicting understandings of what causes dehumanization or what its function is. Some people think of dehumanization as the failure to recognize the humanity of others. Another popular but incorrect theory is that when people conceive of other people as less than human, this is just an alibi to excuse their cruel and destructive acts. Yet another misleading assumption is the claim that dehumanization promotes “moral disengagement”—a kind of distancing that casts others out from the “uni

Abstract A new wave generator (or cam) is proposed (Maiti, Patent 1995) to drive the flex gear of strain wave gearing i.e., harmonic drives with gear pairs of pure involute profiles. The cam profile is made of circular arcs at the two contact zones and shifted elliptical curves for the other zones. The geometric constniction is made in such a way that tip interference is properly avoided for both engagement and disengagement with nominally stubbed or full depth involute gears. The theories are established to verify other geometric and gearing conditions. Evidently, in the existing products (al
