Abstract:

As a consequence of economic globalisation, the Western Balkans has been experiencing massive boom in the building of houses. In rural and mountain parts of the former Yugoslavia, in some of the least expected locations, often in areas inhabited by ethnic minorities, many imposing houses have been constructed. These are often bigger and more extravagant than their models in western European suburbs and have been built largely on the basis of remittances from migrants in the EU or USA. It is not just “remittance houses” but whole new “remittance landscapes” that have come into being. This artic

Abstract:

Britain’s self-made man was defined by taste, money, influence, and most importantly, middle-class rank in the early decades of the Industrial Revolution. During the mid-1700s, a change began to take place between the social classes, stripping the aristocracy of their role as Britain’s foremost connoisseurs and trendsetters. The shift from aristocratic indulgences to those of the newly wealthy middle class stemmed from a number of factors. For one, the economy was changing during the 18th-century. An industrial environment, which often included factories and workers, was the new-found key to t

In common with many of the new social movements of the period, the Women's Liberation Movement was strongly committed to organizational autonomy and self-reliance, in the belief that the demands of oppressed groups should be formulated and presented directly by the oppressed themselves rather than made on their behalf by others, however sympathetic.

Abstract:

En la Inglaterra victoriana y la América decimonónica, las narraciones de aventuras se convirtieron en un género privilegiado para inculcar determinados valores a los chicos jóvenes. A pesar de la supuesta universalidad que suele caracterizar a estos relatos, las concepciones de nación y género que presentan suelen caracterizar a sus países de origen. El escritor inglés de la época victoriana Edward Bulwer-Lytton, en su temprana novela, Pelham (1828), retrata el paso del joven protagonista hacia la madurez mientras adquiere los valores socialmente acceptados en el periodo victoriano.

Abstract:

Gender differences in the construct validity of Jack's (1991) Silencing the Self Scale (STSS) were assessed using 187 female and 169 male undergraduates. Results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed gender differences in the scale's latent structure and at best provided only limited support for the validity of the scale's four subscales for women. Among men, the studies exposed a weakness in the scale's construct validity and provided insights into possible alternative interpretations made by men when responding to the scale's items. Convergent and discriminant validity of

Abstract:

Although healthy eating might enhance long-term survival, few men with prostate cancer make diet changes to advance their well-being. Men’s typically poor diets and uninterest in self-health may impede nutrition interventions and diet change. Food choice behavior is complex involving many determinants, including gender, which can shape men’s health practices, diets, and prostate cancer experiences. Developing men-centered prostate cancer nutrition interventions to engage men (and where appropriate their partners) in promoting healthy diets can afford health benefits. This article presents an o

Abstract:

Material things always make statements about people’s identities. For indigenous Filipino men, making baskets asserts identities rich in culture and in non-market values. This article examines basketry backpacks that were part of the pre-colonial material culture of ethnic groups known as Igorot. When made from rattan, these baskets are recognized as tribal art or heritage items. When made from plastic by contemporary artisans, they are problematic objects that subvert dominant constructs of masculinity. Featuring bright colours – pink, red and yellow – from the detritus of goldmining, these b

Abstract:

To explain examination performance in a course on statistical methods in psychology by 33 men and 28 women undergraduates in psychology ( M age = 24.1 yr.), the roles of causal attributions, locus of control for classroom beliefs, and academic self-concepts were explored. Students who made ability or effort attributions performed better and had higher internal control scores than students with task or luck ascriptions. Also, scores on academic self-concept correlated .33 with academic performance. Students high on academic self-concept performed better than those with low academic self-concept

Abstract:

Offering online programs that target men and women separately, Weight Watchers communicates, represents, and manipulates gender in its program marketing and materials. In this article, I demonstrate how Weight Watchers engages aspects of hegemonic masculinity as they endeavor to construct “masculine” versus “feminine” dieting through contrasting depictions of food, the body, and technology use. By analyzing the difference in the weight loss experiences that Weight Watchers Online promises, I argue that limited types of self are made available to women and men. Weight Watchers portrays female d

The Student t test was used to examine differences between Active and Non-active people; and to analyse differences by frequency of activity, analysis of variance was used.

Based on Q.S.An-Nisa[4]: 1, this article aims to look back at the meaning of the verse from an ontological and axiological perspective. The method used in article writing is descriptive analytical. The theoretical framework is Hassan Hanafi's hermeneutic theory which consists of three criticisms, namely historical, eidetic and praxis. The result of the study is that Q.S.

Abstract:

One important question in trait theory is the concept of validity, that is, whether a given test actually measures what it is intended to measure. This is easy to establish when we have a criterion against which the test can be evaluated. Unfortunately, the criterion is not always available. One way of overcoming this problem could be to validate questionnaire responses by correlating them with ratings made by external assessors who know the ratee well: This is what is known as consensual validity. This study assesses the consensual validity of the EPQ by means of self-reports and spouse-repor

This essay explores Franklin's construction and presentation of his pride in his working-class origins and identity, analysing how and why Franklin sought not to hide his poor origins but rather to celebrate them as a virtue. As an extremely successful printer, Franklin had risen from working-class obscurity to the highest ranks of Philadelphia society, yet unlike other self-made men of the era Franklin embraced and celebrated hi
