Religious Affiliation, Internalized Homonegativity and Depressive Symptoms: Unveiling Mental Health Inequalities among Brazilian Gay Men.

Different religious narratives associate same-sex sexuality, in its various manifestations, with moral deviation or sin. Gay men who are socialized in more religious communities appear to experience and internalize greater levels of homonegativity, as well as to present greater indicators of depressive symptoms. The purpose of this study was to evaluate indicators of perceived homonegativity in the community and internalized, and signs/symptoms of depression reported by Brazilian gay men with a nominal religion and compare them to those reported by Atheists or Agnostics. Our sample comprised 194 Brazilian gay men, distributed into three groups: Christians (Protestants and Catholics, n = 71; 36.6%); Spiritualists (Kardecists or religions of African origin, n = 52; 26.8%) and Atheists or Agnostics (n = 71; 36.6%). The following measurement instruments were used: sociodemographic questionnaire, Internalized Homophobia Scale and Beck Depression Scale. High mean scores of depression were verified in all groups, and 60% of the sample presented some level of depression. There was a higher level of self-reported homonegativity among Christians and Spiritualists compared to that reported by Atheists or Agnostics, with the differences between the groups being significant. The regression analysis indicated a significant effect of religion on homonegativity, but not on depression. Our results suggest that gay men's chronic exposure to non-affirming religious affiliation contexts may harm the construction of a positive gay identity and should be taken into consideration when addressing mental health inequalities of sexual minorities.

Economic science is a powerful tool for analysing corruption, and the economic approach is of fundamental importance for understanding where the incentive for corruption is the greatest and where its influence is the most pronounced.

The research is aimed at identifying the features of humanitarian discourse of modern times in the critical conditions of war. The author's task is to clarify the dependence of the dominant themes, that this discourse presents, and the dynamics of their changes in Ukraine, in Western democratic countries, and its articulation by the aggressor country. To achieve the task, a set of philosophical and general scientific methods is used: empirical - to collect and describe actual material; phenomenological - for the objectification of humanistic discourse in terms of concepts and phenomena; dialectical - regarding the general understanding of the tendencies of the unfolding of historical processes; analytical - regarding the identification of the causes of complex phenomena of social existence (war, multiculturalism, glocalization, genocide, conflict, patriotism, etc.); contextual - regarding the identification of the historical and cultural context of the existence of the mentioned phenomena; commemorations - regarding the study of social memory and work with traumatic experience, etc. Thus, the Ukrainian humanitarian discourse of wartime is characterized by a growing sense of national/civilizational identity, political subjectivity, and patriotism; for Western democratic discourse – rationalized caution and post-non-classical rhetoric; for the discourse of the aggressor country – ideological and propagandist involvement in the desire to justify the moral deviations and crimes against humanity of the invaders. Despite all the traumatism of the war experience, it must be worked out and understood, because otherwise it will be repeated in new inhumane manifestations and forms.

Representations and Consequences of Moral Evil in Cenușă rece by Mihaela Perciun

This article offers a literary analysis of the existential dilemmas and psychological traumas of the characters in Mihaela Perciun’s novel, Cenușă rece. The sources and the chain of causality that marked the destinies of the characters from the perspective of moral evil are particularly highlighted. We have shown that moral deviations and the constraint of freedom of conscience are what can create both social dissensions and identity fractures over time. By using black humor, the author illustrates an upside-down world, wicked and with values followed only on a declarative level, thus managing to offer us a full picture of this society. It also analyzes the drama of three generations of women and how the male character, Tudor Cocargea, marked their existence by one moral slip he committed. Thus, we found that the characters, although they are blood relatives, are devoid of affection and totally unknown to each other

Determinants of Workplace Deviant Behaviours among Non-academic Staff in Universities in South-South Nigeria

This paper studied the determinants of workplace deviant behaviours (WDB) among non-academic staff in universities in South-South Nigeria. Three hundred (300) non-academic staff were drawn equally from the six universities in the six states that make up the South-South region of Nigeria. Data were generated from two hundred and nineteen (219) questionnaires received from the respondents without errors and analyzed using Pearson's Product Moment Correlation. The results found that vandalism, manipulation of records, abuse of office, wastage of office resources, leaving early from work, favouritism, gossiping, and aggression towards colleagues were prominently workplace deviant behaviour. In addition, the study established that the individual-related factors that cause these deviant behaviours are job stress, personality traits, emotional intelligence and moral deviation, while interpersonal factors are group norms and group behaviours. In the same vein, the organizational factors include workplace religiousity, workplace support, job security, career management, and HR practices. The study concludes that a statistically significant relationship exists between the two major categories of workplace deviant behaviours, interpersonal and organizational factors responsible for deviant behaviours practiced among non-academic staff in universities in South-South Nigeria. The study recommends that university management should set up a committee to strictly address and combat the identified deviant behaviours that are commonly practiced among her non-academic staff in the institution.
