How did the European Marriage Pattern persist? Social versus familial inheritance: England and Quebec, 1650–1850

The European Marriage Pattern (EMP), in place in NW Europe for perhaps 500 years, substantially limited fertility. But how could such limitation persist when some individuals who deviated from the EMP norm had more children? If their children inherited their deviant behaviors, their descendants would quickly become the majority of later generations. This puzzle has two possible solutions. The first is that all those that deviated actually had lower net fertility over multiple generations. We show, however, no fertility penalty to future generations from higher initial fertility. Instead the EMP survived because even though the EMP persisted at the social level, children did not inherit their parents’ individual fertility choices. In the paper we show evidence consistent with lateral, as opposed to vertical, transmission of EMP fertility behaviors.

The aim of this research is to understand the extent to which the Sentiong community cares about managing household waste. The method used is descriptive qualitative using data collection techniques carried out through investigations and interviews. The results of the research imply that the awareness of the Sentiong community in dominating household waste is still in the small category. This is due to the large amount of waste being thrown away haphazardly, the lack of waste sorting, and the lack of public knowledge. Throwing away rubbish is a daily activity that everyone does, this can lead to deviant behavior if it is carried out by people who behave badly towards the environment. Waste can cause problems, but it can also strengthen the economic life of the community. Various types of waste produced from industry and households, if not managed well and correctly, will have the potential to weaken the community's economy, this is because it will absorb quite a large amount of funds for handling waste that is not managed well and correctly, which is considered from a hygiene, health and environmental perspective.

Reflections on Recidivism and Relapse Prevention among Italian Justice-Involved Juveniles: A General Overview

Research interprets antisocial and illegal behavior among juveniles as an expression of needs, as a conscious action, or as an adherence to family, cultural, and social contexts. Professionals and researchers interested in the topic could benefit from reflections and insights on relapse prevention among justice-involved juveniles (JIJs). In light of these considerations, we investigated the criminal conduct of JIJs, identifying their background, individual characteristics, and the educational and rehabilitative programs of the 17 Italian youth detention centers from a sample of 234 JIJs (214 males and 20 females, 14–25 years old). The sample completed the following questionnaires: the high-risk situation checklist, deviant behavior questionnaire (DBQ), and the neighborhood perception questionnaire (NPQ). The study aims to provide a general overview of the justice-involved adolescents and young adults in Italian youth detention centers, focusing on perpetrator profiles, family systems and the quality of life in the Italian youth detention centers. To achieve our goals, we investigated their occupations and education, the perceived quality of life in their neighborhoods, the use of drugs, and the tendency to commit illegal or antisocial behaviors before incarceration. The study also explored the awareness related to the personal perception of the risk factors in relapse, with the aim of stimulating reflections on behavior and crime-related cognitions to promote relapse prevention. We discuss the main findings and future implications.

A game study on the impact of employees’ deviant innovation behaviors on firms’ organizational innovation performance

Organizational innovation performance is considered to be the key to maintaining competitiveness and achieving sustainable development in modern enterprises. Deviant innovation refers to that employees improve their working methods without the permission of the organization, break through the constraints of existing rules and achieve high performance. Additionally, Deviant innovation behavior can also stimulate the enthusiasm of other members of the organization. In order to study the evolutionary game rules of strategic interaction between enterprises and employees in the process of deviant innovation, this paper constructs a 2*2 asymmetric payoff matrix, and uses numerical simulation to show the influence of different values of decision parameters and changes of initial conditions on the evolutionary results. The research reveals that the interaction game between employees’ deviant innovation behavior and enterprise enhancement of organizational innovation performance is a complex and significant topic. It is found that when enterprises actively improve organizational innovation performance and employees implement deviant innovation behavior, both sides engage in positive game interactions, maximizing enterprise benefits. However, when enterprises passively enhance organizational innovation performance but employees engage in deviant innovation behavior, it may lead to conflicts between the two parties. The research findings provide relevant strategies for employees to correctly implement deviant innovation behavior and for enterprises to enhance organizational innovation performance.

Preventing deviant behaviours in the formulation and implementation of environmental health policies in the era of self-media

National health could significantly impact political, economic and social spheres, having a critical role in national development, social stability and sustainable economic growth. The Chinese government is prioritizing health in all policies and promoting environmental health work. However, deviations in the implementation of China’s environmental health policy, such as excessive or incomplete execution, could hinder progress. Studies have identified the main factors that are inhibiting effective policy implementation; these include incomplete grassroots policy mechanisms, cognitive biases amongst policy executors, varying acceptance of policy execution objects and environmental complexity. To mitigate these issues, several actions have been recommended including improving government mechanisms, enhancing technical support, developing talents, increasing public scientific literacy and considering the needs of policy executors and environmental complexity. The Internet, especially self-media platforms, can enhance policy communication, reduce information bias and foster a favourable environment for policy implementation. By using self-media’s dissemination mechanism effectively, we can strengthen public consensus and improve public scientific literacy in environmental health. This contributes to eliminating policy formulation and implementation deviations, fully leveraging the guiding role of policies and promoting the construction of a Healthy China.

The Role of Fashion in Crime Symbolism in Ghana, West Africa

ABSTRACT This study delves into the intricate interplay between fashion and deviance, focusing on Ghana, West Africa to address the gap in understanding how clothing choices can serve as symbolic conduits for deviant behavior in Ghana. We adopted a qualitative approach, utilizing ethnographic research design to explore the complex relationship between clothing, symbolism, and deviant behavior in the Ghanaian cultural context. We conducted semi-structured interviews with three categories of participants: 10 deviant or criminal individuals from Nsawam prisons and in the communities through non-participant observation, 8 community members, and 2 law enforcement officers. We employed purposive sampling method to ensure that participants had relevant expertise and firsthand knowledge related to clothing symbolism in deviant subcultures. The study findings mainly revealed that clothes convey identities and codes subtly and is a potent emblem of group connection. The intricate dynamics surrounding the stigmatization and labeling of clothing symbolism have an impact on people’s self-esteem and interaction with law enforcement. To develop guidelines and training programs for law enforcement officers and community members on concrete methods of identifying and comprehending clothing symbolism within deviant and criminal subcultures, policy makers may form a collaborative task force consisting of law enforcement, community leaders, and cultural experts.

Employee negative reactions to CSR: Corporate hypocrisy and symbolic CSR attributions as serial mediators

Although previous hospitality studies investigated the impact of CSR directed at various stakeholders, these studies have largely overlooked the impact of perceived inconsistent CSR (ICSR) strategies on unexpected employee outcomes. To fill the gap, this study investigates how perceived ICSR strategies affect employee deviant behavior through perceived corporate hypocrisy and symbolic CSR attributions (SCSRAs). Survey data were collected 472 employees working in four- and five-star hotels in Antalya, Turkiye and analyzed using PLS-SEM. The findings indicate that perceived ICSR strategies has a positive impact on perceived corporate hypocrisy and SCSRAs. Corporate hypocrisy and SCSRAs play a serial mediating role between perceived ICSR strategies and employee deviant behavior. This research enriches our understanding of the challenges faced by hospitality organizations in coping with CSR issues effectively.

The Psychological Impact of Divorce on Children in Manado City, North Sulawesi

Divorce is a complex life event that often has significant impacts, especially on the psychological well-being of children. This research aims to deeply explore the psychological impact of divorce on children in Manado City, North Sulawesi. Through a qualitative approach, we conducted in-depth interviews with 20 informants, including children, divorced parents, and judges from the Manado Religious Court. The results of the study indicate that divorce affects not only the physical and social aspects of children but also significantly impacts their emotional state. Children who are victims of their parents' divorce often experience deep feelings of loss, uncertainty about their family's future, and confusion about the causes of the divorce. Emotional conflicts also arise in children who are victims of divorce, such as feelings of guilt, anger, sadness, and prolonged anxiety. These psychological impacts are then reflected in various aspects of the child's life, including a decline in academic performance, lack of motivation to study, and deviant behaviors such as drug use or engaging in promiscuous activities. In facing these challenges, it is crucial for children to receive adequate social and psychological support. Therefore, the roles of family, government, schools, and the surrounding community in providing appropriate support and facilitating children's adaptation to their parents' divorce are very important. Support from various parties can help children who are victims of divorce in their psychological recovery.

From HR Practices to HR Performance: A Psychological Ownership Meta-Analysis Across Cultures

This study utilizes psychological ownership theory as theoretical framework to examine high-performance work practices, and attitudinal and behavioral performance as associations of psychological ownership on the population level. Psychological ownership describes a mindset which allows individuals to experience ownership feelings for a target (e.g., organization) regardless of legal ownership rights. Further, psychological ownership theory is integrated with and extended by contingency theory to analyze the moderation effects of societal culture. These effects have been assumed for over 30 years but hardly backed by empirical evidence from cross-cultural samples. Thus, this study analyzes data from 351,919 individuals who participated in 139 published and unpublished studies, using rigorous and advanced meta-analytic techniques. The results show that compensation and benefits, job and work design, and communication practices foster psychological ownership, which in turn enhances constructive deviant behavior, task performance, and favorable attitude while weakening unfavorable attitude. Societal culture significantly strengthens these relationships.

Trend and Online Gambling Risk: An Emerging Criminality Problem Against Youth

The involvement of youth in online gambling cases not only shows a trend of social deviation but also has the potential to form increasingly massive criminal behaviour. However, this phenomenon has not been comprehensively discussed in previous studies. In addition to responding to the shortcomings of previous studies, this study also focuses on explaining the characteristics, factors, and implications of the trend of online gambling against youth on the potential for the formation of increasingly massive criminal behaviour.

First, the characteristics of online gambling that are popular against youth, apart from appearing with various types of games, the involvement of youth is also not a few players and even bookmakers of online gambling. Second, the reasons underlying youth to be actively involved in online gambling cases are more influenced by structural factors than cultural factors. Third, the behaviour formed by youth who are actively involved in online gambling cases, apart from going beyond deviant behaviour, has also increased the problem of increasingly massive criminality. This study also recommends the importance of future studies that explain the reception of law enforcement and the community in interpreting the trend of deviant behaviour against youth by conducting in-depth and more intensive interviews.

The Role of Mass Media in The Emergence of Deviant Behavior in Society

One of the primary studies in the sociology of communication is the influence of mass communication in society. Media is a communication transmitter or "channel" that includes newspapers, magazines, radio, television, movies, posters, and banners. The medium can be used and received by the communicator, but the medium can affect more than one communicator. This can affect many communicants regardless of the number of communicators; this means if a communicator uses any of the mentioned mediums, they can easily influence the behaviour of society as a whole. Behaviour change can have positive and negative impacts, which is why learning or understanding the role of mass media in communication is very important. There are many cases where the use of mass media can lead to deviant actions. Deviant actions that appear more often today will involve the mass media, meaning that the mass media has a significant influence. The impact of mass media can be seen in our daily lives, and mass media has become a basic need of human society as a whole. With mass media incorporated into everyday life, any information can be gathered. Such information can be the difference between a positive impact and a negative impact, it all depends on the user (communicator). This journal will focus on how mass media can trigger deviant societal actions and how to overcome them.

Family religiosity and climate: the protective role of personal interiorized religiosity in deviance propensity among justice-involved juveniles.

According to the literature, religious commitment could be a protective factor against dangerous behaviors, such as criminal offending, unsafe sex, and substance use. Our study aims to investigate the influence of Family Religiosity and climate on anger dysregulation and deviance propensity in a sample of 214 justice-involved boys from Italian Youth Detention Centers (range 14-25). The sample was divided into religious (n = 102) and non-religious (n = 112) justice-involved juveniles. Participants filled in the following questionnaires: Deviant Behavior Questionnaire, Aggression Questionnaire, Family Communication Scale, Moral Disengagement Scale, and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support. We used a partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS_SEM) method to build our model and we found that Family Religiosity was positively associated with Family Climate which was negatively associated with Anger Dysregulation and Deviance Propensity, and Anger Dysregulation was positively related to Deviance Propensity. The multigroup analysis confirmed that for justice-involved juveniles who interiorized religious discipline and beliefs, Family Religiosity showed a positive association with Family Climate, which had a negative relationship with Anger Dysregulation, which strongly predicted Deviance Propensity. This result could be useful to promote new development goals and preventive activities and interventions based on positive religiosity values in juveniles' behavior.
