Abstract:
The Inventory of New College Student Adjustment (INCA) was developed to assist college student personnel in assessing adjustment difficulties experienced by first-year college students. A sample of 474 first-year college students (282 women, 59%; 192 men, 41%) enrolled in a first-year seminar course at a medium-sized 4-year university in the central southern region of the United States completed the INCA. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses confirmed a two-factor scale explaining 47.17% of the variance in scores. Convergent validity analyses support the INCA as a sufficiently valid me

Abstract:
By the turn of the seventeenth century a generation of Andean natives, both Inca and aboriginal, had made lifelong homes within the strongholds of the European invaders. As they entered old age they inhabited an urban landscape whose “Indian” sector had become very diverse. In Quito and other colonial cities some of them dwelled in old pre-hispanic settlements whose closeness to new Hispanic centers had turned them into multiethnic “Indian” ghettos. Quito's Añaquito and Machángara are examples. Many others had settled illegally but permanently inside the Spanish nuclear city, so much so that i

The UFWA were concerned with the promotion and definition of citizenship, and in so doing laid race as a foundation of Canadian identity.

This study provides a feminist analysis of protective labor legislation in the Supreme Court case of UAW v. Johnson Controls, Inc. History of protection rhetoric and precedented cases leading up to UAW are provided. Using a feminist analysis, this study argues that the victory for women's labor rights in UAW is short lived, and the cycle of protection rhetoric continues with new pro-business agendas replacing traditional justifications for "protecting" women in the work place.

Abstract:
Objective: The objective of this study was to verify if the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the screening of breast cancer in women in Brazil. Methods: This is an observational, cross-sectional study with a descriptive and quantitative approach, carried out with secondary data provided by the Cancer Information System (SISCAN/DATASUS), considering two temporal clippings — before the pandemic (2015–2019) and during the pandemic (2020 and 2021). Women diagnosed with breast cancer who underwent mammography between 2015 and 2021 were included in the study. Review by the Research Ethics Committee was wa

Abstract:
Introduction: Breast cancer in Brazil has a high mortality rate due to the large number of patients diagnosed and treated in advanced stages, due to lack of an organized screening program and the long time from diagnosis to initiation of treatment in the Unified Health System (SUS). For the 2020–2022 triennium, the National Cancer Institute (INCA) estimated 66 thousand new cases of breast cancer among Brazilian women. In the city of São Paulo, 5,350 new cases were estimated, with a gross rate of 80.81/100,000. The biomarkers (RE, RP, Her2 and Ki-67) in breast carcinomas allowed for division in

Abstract:
Introduction: Santa Catarina has significant agricultural productivity and ranks among the ten largest consumers of pesticides in Brazil. The state is notable for grain production, which exceeded 6.5 million tons in the 2021/2022 harvest. In the western mesoregion of the state, grain production is also prominent, especially with maize and soybean cultivation, where endocrine-disrupting pesticides are systematically used throughout the production chain of these transgenic crops. In Santa Catarina, considering female deaths from malignant neoplasms in 2020, 35% were related to breast cancer. The

Abstract:
Approximately 28,000 maternal deaths occur every year in Bangladesh due to pregnancy and delivery-related complications, while many more women suffer major physical and psychological injuries. Available statistics indicate an increase in menstrual regulation (MR) and abortions, most performed by untrained practitioners under unhygienic conditions. Introducing emergency contraception (EC) in the national family planning (FP) program in Bangladesh could substantially reduce unwanted pregnancies and as result MR/abortions should also decrease. Because MR/abortions in Bangladesh significantly cont

The Bangladesh Directorate of Family Planning in collaboration with the Population Council, Pathfinder International, and John Snow, Inc. is conducting an operations research project to test the feasibility of introducing emergency contraceptive pills (ECP) in the national family planning (FP) program and to answer operational questions on implementing the use of ECP efficiently. In Bangladesh, 1.2 million births are unplanned and the number of menstrual regulation/abortions is increasing.
