Relationship Between Menopausal Symptoms, Cancer Screening Behaviors, and Religion Attitudes of Women in the Climacteric Period: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Although it is known that religion is used to cope with health problems, there is a lack of information about the effect of religion on menopausal symptoms and cancer screening attitudes of climacteric women. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between the religious attitudes of women in the climacteric period and their attitudes toward menopausal symptoms and cancer screening. This was a cross-sectional study of 381 women in the climacteric period in the Central Anatolia region of Türkiye. Data collection form, the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS), OK-Religious Attitude Scale (ORAS), and attitude for cancer screening (short form) (ASCS) were used to collect data. Correlation analysis assessed the relationship between MRS, ORAS, and ASCS. There was a low positive correlation between women's ORAS mean score (35.19 ± 4.80) and MRS mean score (12.68 ± 7.24) (r = 0.284, P < 0.001). There was no statistically significant relationship between the mean ORAS scores of the women and the mean ASCS scores (64.59 ± 10.47) (r = 0.089, P > 0.05). Women who experienced more severe menopausal symptoms had stronger religious attitudes. Women's religious attitudes did not affect their attitudes toward cancer screening. It is therefore recommended that health professionals organize counseling and training activities to protect and improve the health of menopausal women and increase their participation in screening and treatment programs.

Religion attitudes and youth entrepreneurship performance

This study aims to expand knowledge on the nexus between religious attitudes and entrepreneurship performance. Using an international sample of 1,162 European youth entrepreneurs collected in 2016 in eleven countries, we test the increasing effect of spiritual capital on business performance and its heterogeneity across religions. The results from the multivariate regression analyses show only modest effects of religious attitudes on youth entrepreneurship performance, measured by employment creation, the number of employees, income decile and perceived business growth. Still, we observe some heterogeneous effects concerning Roman Catholic, Jewish, Islamic and Hindu churches on some of the analysed variables. Despite the perceived limitations, we provide recommendations for future research, pointing out the need to further explore different types of religions concerning the entrepreneur’s performance, innovative behaviour and personal well-being.

Humanitarno pravo u islamu

International Humanitarian Law is one of the most important branches of the encompassing science of law that tends to, if in spite of preventive efforts an armed conflict begins, to limit that conflict as much as possible and reduce its destructive factors and subjugate it to regulations. The attitudes of religions are of great importance, and especially the stance of Islam as one of the most important religions of the contemporary world, which is sometimes unfortunately misunderstood and misinterpreted by its very followers. This article is an attempt to, while referring to ayāt and transmissions, to present Islamic attitudes towards rules and regulations which regulate the relations between sides before and after armed conflicts. Key words: humanitarian law; Islam, armed conflicts, domestic and international conflicts; human dignity.

The Color of Death; An Exploration of the Effect of Race and Religion Dimensions on Attitudes toward Euthanasia.

We examined the moderating role of race on the relationship between religion and euthanasia attitudes in the United States. Understanding the role of religion in attitudes toward euthanasia requires viewing religion as a multidimensional construct. In this study, four dimensions operationalized religion: religiosity, spirituality, afterlife beliefs (afterlife, heaven, and hell), and religious denomination. Using data from 1066 adults interviewed in the 2018 General Social Survey, a logistic regression showed that the impact of each dimension of religion varies across racial groups. Adding race as an interaction term moderated the effect of religion dimensions on people's attitudes toward euthanasia. Although most studies have shown a negative influence of religion, we found that not all dimensions of religion have a negative association with opposition to euthanasia and the role of each dimension differs based on individuals' race. We also found that any comprehensive understanding of the role of religion in shaping euthanasia attitudes should consider the moderating effect of race.

Whereas as a state ideology, Pancasila actually contains the value of forming moderate religious understandings and attitudes for the benefit of life between religious people in Indonesia. This study intends to identify the dimensions of religious moderation values in the construction of Pancasila. This literature research uses a normative-philosophical approach. The results of the study concluded that there are dimensions of religious moderation values contained in the construction of Pancasila. First, the value of tolerance in the first precept is in the form of the value of forming paradigms and social attitudes of religion that prioritize pluralism in life between religious people. Second, the value of anti-radicalism in the second precept is in the form of the value of forming paradigms and social religious attitudes that prioritize the spirit of humanism.

However, the understanding of globalization should involve its encounter with localities. In religious studies, religious responses can be an entry point to see how global issues impact the practice of religion. Selecting the case of the conflict over gold mine at Tumpang Pitu near Banyuwangi, East Java, as a place of conflict and encounter between capitalism and religious behavior is significant in portraying the dynamics within religious agency.

Framing (implicitly) matters: the role of religion in attitudes toward immigrants and Muslims in Denmark.

Denmark is currently experiencing the highest immigration rate in its modern history. Population surveys indicate that negative public attitudes toward immigrants actually stem from attitudes toward their (perceived) Islamic affiliation. We used a framing paradigm to investigate the explicit and implicit attitudes of Christian and Atheist Danes toward targets framed as Muslims or as immigrants. The results showed that explicit and implicit attitudes were more negative when the target was framed as a Muslim, rather than as an immigrant. Interestingly, implicit attitudes were qualified by the participants' religion. Specifically, analyses revealed that Christians demonstrated more negative implicit attitudes toward immigrants than Muslims. Conversely, Atheists demonstrated more negative implicit attitudes toward Muslims than Atheists. These results suggest a complex relationship between religion, and implicit and explicit prejudice. Both the religious affiliation of the perceiver and the perceived religious affiliation of the target are key factors in social perception.

Palliative care training: A national survey of U.S. hematology/oncology fellows.

28 Background: The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) has recommended integration of palliative care into oncology practice at the time of diagnosis of advanced cancer. The attitudes, knowledge, and skills of Hematology/Oncology fellows in palliative medicine to implement this recommendation have not been assessed. Methods: In 2013 we surveyed current US Hematology/Oncology fellows to assess their attitudes and the quality of teaching in palliative care received during fellowship and their perceived preparedness to care for patients at End of Life (EOL). Trainees at all US programs were surveyed via Research Electronic Data Capture. The survey was IRB approved, anonymous and voluntary. Results: 176 surveys were collected. Statistical analysis was performed with t-test for numeric and Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables. 98% of respondents felt that providing care for dying patients was important. 99% indicated that physicians have a responsibility to help patients at EOL. Fellows felt their overall training in fellowship was superior to their quality of training (p&lt;0.0001) or teaching (p &lt;0.0001) on EOL. Pearson correlation showed that those with training in palliative care felt more prepared caring for patients at EOL (p &lt;0.0001). Fellows who had training in palliative care during fellowship (45.4% of those surveyed) felt they had better teaching on managing a patient at EOL than those who did not (p&lt;0.0001). There was no statistical significance noted with self-identified roles of spirituality or religion in attitudes, knowledge, or skills. 64% reported having conducted over ten family meetings regarding EOL. Only 18.9% were supervised (p&lt;0.0001) and only 13.1% were given feedback more than ten times (p&lt;0.0001). 89.7% of fellows surveyed stated they have disagreed with treatment without palliative care on at least one occasion. 40% of respondents did not know how to respond to a request to stop chemotherapy. Conclusions: Hematology/Oncology fellows believe that EOL care is important. Education about EOL is not at the same level of their overall fellowship training despite the recognition of the benefit of palliative care in Oncology. Educational initiatives need to be introduced to improve training on EOL care.

Internalised conflicts in the practice of religion among kwandengue living with HIV in Douala, Cameroun

Religion plays an important role in the life of many Africans. Given that most faith-based organisations are vehemently opposed to homosexuality, the question arises as to the extent to which African gay men feel free to express and enjoy their faith while simultaneously acknowledging their sexual orientation. This study explored this question in relation to gay men living with HIV in Douala, Cameroon. For the study, we analysed questionnaires used by a local HIV-support centre to assess the psychosocial life of people living with HIV. Additional follow-up discussions were held with self-help groups and one-to-one conversations were conducted. The majority of the participants practised a religion and felt generally satisfied with their religious life. At the same time, many men said that they were ‘conflicted with’ their faith. They did not always wish to choose between their faith and their sexual orientation, these being two important dimensions of their identity. Religion's attitude towards homosexuality does not seem to make religious life less important for gay men in Africa, but can be a source of stress, which makes their spiritual fulfilment more problematic and deprives them of a coping strategy that may be helpful in adapting to HIV.
