Folie et Société: eroding the body-mind relationship via dysfunctional paternalistic systems.

This theoretical perspective examines the proposition of shared complex trauma between a parent and child, arising from blurred relational boundaries and societal oppression, leading to inequality both at home and within the larger paternalistic system of society. Specifically, the focus is on living within a paternalistic, authoritarian system where rules are unjust, demanding obedience and compliance without questioning the behaviors of the authority. Individuals growing up in these circumstances are subject to adverse and emotionally overwhelming experiences, which lead to the creation of emotional memory images (EMIs). The delusion in which the child is caught up becomes a reality for the child as time passes. This phenomenon is recognized in psychiatry as "Folie à deux" (the madness of two or more) at the micro level, and "Folie et Société" (the madness of society) on the macro level. Complex trauma, derived from a child's exposure to multiple adverse events, can erode the mind-body relationship, impacting both mental and physical health. These traumatic experiences in early childhood can manifest as body-focused disorders in adolescents, prevailing throughout adulthood if left unattended. This article provides a theoretical perspective on dealing with the dissociation and chronic stress related to oppressive and authoritarian family systems. The broader implications of this article include highlighting the psychophysiological underpinnings of complex trauma, the relationship of a highly oppressive paternalistic authoritarian system imposed on children and adolescents, and the role of Split-Second Unlearning as a therapeutic intervention to clear EMIs and improve overall health outcomes.

Profile of Children with Special Needs of the Slow Learner Variety SMP Madura

Slow Learner is part of one of the children with special needs but still above disability. This study aims to determine the profile of slow-learning children commonly called slow learners in one of the junior high schools in Madura. This research uses a qualitative case study approach with data collection methods of observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study are that of students who experience slow learning, 60% are caused by hereditary and genetic factors and 40% are caused by environmental factors originating from families who use authoritarian family education. This affects the learning process of children who are of course intellectually all of them are below the average of other normal children when looking at the academic scores obtained so that the school takes an attitude of maximizing children's learning and cooperating with related parties.

The interactive roles of religion, parenting, and sex communication in adolescent sexual risk-taking

The present study used longitudinal person-centered analyses to understand how parent religiosity, parenting styles, and parent-adolescent sex communication interact in predicting adolescent sexual risk-taking over time. The sample included 681 adolescents and their parents (Mage = 15, at wave 5) from Waves 5 and 6 of the Flourishing Families Project. Variables capturing parent religiosity, parenting styles, and parent-adolescent sex communication were used as class indicators in a latent profile analysis. Three classes emerged: (1) Non-religious Authoritative families, (2) Religious Authoritarian families, and (3) Religious Authoritative families. The Non-religious Authoritative and Religious Authoritarian families did not significantly differ on later adolescent sexual risk-taking (controlling for prior sexual risk-taking), while the Religious Authoritative families had adolescents with significantly lower subsequent sexual risk-taking. These results demonstrate the complex ways in which religion, parenting, and sex communication interact in predicting adolescent sexual risk-taking. Thus, both the content and process of sexual socialization may be important.

Emancipation and the position of Albanian women in socialist Montenegro (1945-1955)

ABSTRACT The thesis analyzes the position of Albanian women in the first decade of socialist rule in Montenegro, during which women became full members of society. The efforts of the communist authorities to radically end this situation and include Albanian women in public and social life led to misunderstandings between the government and the Albanian national community, which have shown women’s emancipation and social engagement as violating the values of the authoritarian and traditional family. Therefore,with this thesis, we want to point out that the process of emancipation and integration of Albanian women into society, in the first ten years after the war, was significantly hampered by the resistance of the patriarchal environment and the results achieved were far below expectations.

Perception Status of Nursing Department Students in Terms of Spirituality and Spiritual Care

Purpose: The study was conducted to examine the spirituality and spiritual care perceptions of nursing department students. Methods: The study was conducted in descriptive design with nursing students at a state university. Permission was obtained from the ethics committee, the institution, and the students before the study. The universe of the study consisted of all nursing students studying at the faculty, and the sample consisted of a total of 500 students who were willing to participate in the study. The data were collected with a questionnaire and with the Spirituality and Spiritual Care Detection Scale. The scores received from this scale were between 17 and 85, and high total scores suggest that the spirituality and spiritual care detection scale level is “good.” The data obtained in the study were evaluated with the Student t, one-way ANOVA, and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: It was determined that 66.2% of the students had knowledge about spiritual care, 27.4% received this knowledge from the school, and 60.2% met the need for spiritual care with worshiping. It was determined that the mean spirituality and spiritual care detection scale score of nursing students was 66.83 ± 5.01, and the mean spirituality and spiritual care detection scale score was statistically significant according to the grades (p < 0.05). It was also found that the students with an authoritarian family structure had lower mean spirituality and spiritual care detection scale scores than students with democratic and protective families. Conclusions and Recommendations: It was found that many nursing department students had knowledge on spirituality and spiritual care, the mean spirituality and spiritual care score was “good,” and that the family structure and the grade affected this situation. In this respect, it is recommended that students are supported and prepared for the clinic with topics including spirituality and spiritual care in nursing education.

Hemşirelik ve Ebelik Öğrencilerinin Akran Destekleri ve Problem Çözme Becerileri

The study was conducted to determine the problem solving skills with peer support of nursing and midwifery students. This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with a total of 305 students. The data were collected using student information form, Problem Solving Inventory and Peer Cooperation Scale. Students’ peer support and problem-solving skills are moderate. 1st classes in the nursing department, 2nd classes in the midwifery department, those who choose the profession because they feel close to themselves in both departments and those who are satisfied with their department, those who have authoritarian families in the nursing department and, those who have democratic and extremely relevant families in the midwifery department of students peer support scores are high. Men and 3rd classes in the nursing department, , 1st and 2nd classes in the midwifery department, those who chose their department for their family request in both departments and are not satisfied with their department, those who have authoritarian families in the nursing departmen, those who have irrelevant families in the midwifery department of students problem-solving scores are high. While there was no significant relationship between the nursing student’s problem solving and peer support total scores, a negative correlation was found between the midwifery students’ problem solving and peer support total scores. It was determined that the peer support and problem solving skills of the students were at a moderate level, the problem solving skills of the nursing students and the peer support of the midwifery students were higher. It was determined that the department, class, satisfaction with the department, reason for department preference and the family structure affected the peer support and problem solving skills.

Testing Todd: family types and development

AbstractMany years ago, Emmanuel Todd came up with a classification of family types and argued that the historically prevalent family types in a society have important consequences for its economic, political, and social development. Here, we evaluate Todd's most important predictions empirically. Relying on a parsimonious model with exogenous covariates, we find mixed results. On the one hand, authoritarian family types are, in stark contrast to Todd's predictions, associated with increased levels of the rule of law and innovation. On the other hand, and in line with Todd's expectations, communitarian family types are linked to racism, low levels of the rule of law, and late industrialization. Countries in which endogamy is frequently practiced also display an expectedly high level of state fragility and weak civil society organizations.

Концепты «мать» и «отец» в призме бурятской, русской и китайской фразеологии

The article examines the concepts “Mother” and “Father” in Buryat, Russian and Chinese phraseology, which constitute the basic and most culturally significant fragment of the linguistic picture of the world, which records the spiritual and moral experience of a person and the nation as a whole. The gender approach to the kinship terminology study significantly enriches and expands the phraseological unit boundaries containing the lexemes mother and father, which are the starting point and core of family-kinship relations. The study of the family institution seems to be especially relevant for the Buryat, Russian and Chinese linguistic cultures increasingly interacting on the territory of the Republic of Buryatia. The results of investigating the corresponding phraseological units enable to indicate the following features common for the three languages: 1) setting authoritarian family model headed by father; 2) key role of concept “Mother” having unbreakable physiological ties with child, giving love, warmth and forgiveness. Unique features include equal representation of father and mother in Buryat, dominating role of mother in Russian, absolute power of father particularly over son and strictness of mother in Chinese. Identification and understanding the universal and unique mentality features of closely contacting ethnic groups will help implement effective and competent intercultural communication.

Political socialization in a failed democracy: Civic education in Thailand

In 1932 Thailand became a constitutional democracy with a traditional monarchy. Since then the country has experienced twelve ‘successful’ military coups d’ etat to make it one of the most coup prone nations in the world and an unstable democracy. This paper analyses an opportunity for schools in Thailand to contribute significantly to the political socialization of young Thais as a means to address the persistent failure of the country’s democratic procedures. Non-school factors, such as authoritarian family characteristics, may negate school attempts to instill democratic behavior. Although civic education in Thai schools appears to have largely failed, the Democratic Citizenship Education Curriculum Project, developed by, with and for Thais, provides schools and teachers with the opportunity to develop democratic citizens through the school socialization process.

P-02-19 Influence of Authoritarian-Oppressive Upbringing Style on the Sexual and Psychological Life of an Adult Person

Mental health is formed in childhood, which is promoted by a style of upbringing. Which in turn implies both methods and principles, as well as theoretical background of upbringing. When the caregiver tries to manipulate the child, and does not teach him independence, it puts psychological pressure on the child. He is in a passive condition that causes retardation of psychosexual development and as a result of this sexual disorder like erectile dysfunction may be developed. In this case is presented the person's history, who grew up by authoritarian family. A 29 years old man has visited to clinical sexologist at the department of sexual medicine of V.Iverieli endocrinilogy, metabology and ditology center "ENMEDIC". Patient had psychological problems linked to authoritarian and oppressive attitude from his parents during the childehood. At the first stage, the patient´s history was discussed with a clinical sexologist and psychological team after childhood trauma had been recorded. As a result of above-mentioned childehood traums patient started his sexual life very late (age of 23). First attempt of sexual intercourse was unsuccessful. Erectile dysfunction and decreased libido was diagnosed as well as depression and high situational and personal anxiety. Patient started complex and step by step treatment by clinical sexologist and psychiatrist.

Family Types and Political Development

Many years ago, Emmanuel Todd argued that differences in family organization – specifically the rules of inheritance, the number of generations living under one roof, and endogamous marriage – are reflected in the organization of the state. He also argued that different family types lead to different paths of economic development. Economists have long ignored these sweeping claims, but with increasing interest in the deep causes of economic development, family types have caught the attention of some economists. Here, we try to take Todd seriously and evaluate his predictions empirically. Relying on a parsimonious model with exogenous covariates, we find mixed results. On the one hand, countries in which authoritarian family types dominate have much higher levels of the rule of law and innovation than predicted by Todd. On the other, countries in which the communitarian family types dominate are characterized by racism, low levels of the rule of law, few checks on government, and late industrialization. Countries in which endogamy is frequently practiced display a high level of state fragility and have weak civil society organizations.

Parental Socialization, School Adjustment and Cyber-Aggression among Adolescents.

The objective of the present study is to analyse the relationships between parental socialization styles—indulgent, authoritarian, authoritative and negligent, school adjustment (social integration, academic competence and family involvement) and cyber-aggression (direct and indirect) in adolescents. Participating in this study were 1304 Spanish students of both sexes (53.1% girls), aged between 12 and 18 years (M = 13.87, SD = 1.33). Multivariate analyses of variance were performed. The results showed significant relationships between parental socialization styles, school adjustment and cyber-aggression. It was observed that adolescents from indulgent and authoritative families showed greater academic competence and greater family involvement. Additionally, the children from authoritarian families displayed greater involvement in direct and indirect cyber-aggression behaviours. The results obtained and their implications are discussed in the final section.

Family Leadership Styles and Deviant Behaviours of Primary School Pupils in Enugu State, Nigeria

OBJECTIVE: This study examined family leadership styles as determinants of deviant behaviours among primary school pupils in Enugu State, Nigeria. &#x0D; &#x0D; METHODS: The study adopted a correlational research design. A total of 821 pupils were drawn as the sample for the study. A questionnaire was used as an instrument for the study.&#x0D; &#x0D; RESULTS: The major findings of the study revealed that primary school pupils exhibited 12 out of 15 types of deviant behaviours such as indulging in exam malpractice, not devoted to studies, Bullying weaker pupils, fighting among pupils, lateness to school, and keeping bad friends among others as identified. It also showed that the authoritarian family leadership style had a significant relationship with primary school pupils&amp;rsquo; deviant behaviour. Again it was discovered that the authoritative family leadership style also called assertive, democratic or balance family leadership style had a significant relationship with pupils&amp;rsquo; deviant behaviours negatively. Moreover, permissive family leadership style had also a significant relationship with primary school pupils&amp;rsquo; deviant behaviours. The result also indicated that neglectful family leadership style had a significant relationship with primary school pupils&amp;rsquo; deviant behaviours. Furthermore, the result showed that family size had a significant influence on deviant behaviours exhibited by primary school pupils in Enugu state.&#x0D; &#x0D; CONCLUSION: Rewarding and praising children who have good behaviours and assigning models to role-play by pupils with deviant behaviours may help to curb deviant behaviours among primary school pupils.

Reading Adorno by the Pool; or, Critical Theory in a Postcritical Era

Reading Adorno by the Pool; or, Critical Theory in a Postcritical Era Robert T. Tally Jr. (bio) As a contributor to this special section on "Selling Out Theory," I hope that the title of this article won't be viewed as false advertising. However, I suspect that those hoping for a detailed discussion of the work of Adorno may be a bit disappointed; those who hope to learn anything about swimming pools will definitely be disappointed. So maybe it would be best to begin by explaining that title. I take the image from Fredric Jameson's 1990 study of the Frankfurt School philosopher, Late Marxism: Adorno, or, the Persistence of the Dialectic. Those familiar with this book will recall Jameson's extraordinary thesis, which was that Adorno of all theorists, in Jameson's words, may turn out to have been the analyst of our own period, which he did not live to see, and in which late capitalism has all but succeeded in eliminating the final loopholes of nature and the Unconscious, of subversion and the aesthetic, of individual and collective praxis alike, and, with a final fillip, in eliminating any memory trace of what thereby no longer existed in the henceforth postmodern landscape. (Jameson 1990, 5) Jameson, here indulging in the decade-ification of modern history that he had analyzed previously in "Periodizing the Sixties" (among other places), had just observed that "Adorno was surely not the philosopher of the thirties (who has to be identified in retrospect, I'm afraid, as Heidegger)," nor was the thinker of the forties and fifties, or the sixties ("those are called Sartre and Marcuse, respectively"); and, as Jameson concedes, the seventies "were essentially French," at least in the United States. But with the arrival of the 1980s and at the threshold of the 1990s, at the advent of a postmodern condition and a post-Cold War era of globalization in which "Adorno's prophecies of the 'total system' finally came true, in wholly unexpected forms," Jameson suggests, and the whole book will be his argument in favor of this hypothesis, "Adorno's Marxism, which was no great help in the previous periods, may turn out to be just what we need today" (Jameson 1990, 5). Although Jameson wrote this nearly 30 years ago, a good case can be made to support [End Page 281] the enduring truth of this proposition, because what might be called the "late postmodernism" of our twenty-first-century condition has, if anything, only exacerbated and extended the "total system" to which Jameson refers (Wegner 2009, 5-6).1 But my title comes from the conclusion to Jameson's study, where Jameson most explicitly looks at the relationship between Adorno's critical theory and the postmodern condition. There he notes that Adorno's polemics may hold the key to uncovering the theorist's special relevance, and "the persistence of the dialectic" more generally, as Jameson's subtitle would have it, in the then-present situation. Specifically, Jameson compares Adorno's critique of positivism to our own era's (i.e., 1990's) critique of postmodernism. Jameson underscores what he calls the momentous shift that this transcoding of positivism onto postmodernism must entail, pointing out that it would have to involve the ways that, as he puts it in his inimitable Jamesonian manner, a stuffy petty-bourgeois republican nineteenth-century philosophy of science emerges from the cocoon of its time capsule as the iridescent sheen of consumerist daily life in the Indian summer of the superstate and multinational capitalism. From truth to state-of-the-art merchandise, from bourgeois respectability and "distinction" to the superhighways and the beaches, from the old-fashioned authoritarian families and bearded professors to permissiveness and loss of respect for authority (which, however, still governs). (Jameson 1990, 248) Jameson concludes that paragraph with a reference to Adorno's famous (or infamous) assertion that there can be poetry after Auschwitz: "The question about poetry after Auschwitz has been replaced with that of whether you could bear to read Adorno and Horkheimer next to the pool" (248). Hence, my title. Reading Adorno today may be a bit like this. True, in 2019 we are no longer basking...

Parenting styles, cyberaggression, and cybervictimization among adolescents

Social concern about the negative effects of cyberbullying in children and adolescents’ psychosocial development is currently increasing. The importance of the family environment and factors in bullying has been highlighted, but little is known about the role of parenting styles in adolescents' engagement in cyberaggression and cybervictimization. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationships of parenting styles (authoritative, indulgent, authoritarian, and neglectful) and cyberbullying (cybervictimization and cyberaggression) in adolescents, also considering sex and age. Participants were 2399 Spanish adolescents, 50.2% boys, aged between 12 and 18 years old (Mage = 14.69, SDage = 1.82). A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA, 4 × 2 × 2) was performed, with parenting styles, sex, and age (12–14 years and 15–18 years) as independent variables and cybervictimization and cyberaggression as criteria. Possible interaction effects were also analyzed. Results showed main effects of parenting styles, sex, and age, as well as an interaction effect between sex and parenting styles. Girls suffered more cybervictimization than boys, whereas boys performed higher levels of cyberaggression than girls. Results suggested that authoritarian parenting style was a risk factor for cyberviolence. Girls from authoritarian families scored highest on cybervictimization. Boys from indulgent families were less involved in cybervictimization. These findings highlight the importance of establishing positive and open communication between parents and adolescents. The implications are discussed.
