Toward Gender Understanding: Examining Ambivalent Sexism among University Students and Its Impact on Faculty Evaluation

This study examines gender differences in levels of sexism among university students and evaluates variations in assessing sexist attitudes toward professors. The aim is to analyze potential disparities between men and women regarding ambivalent sexism (both hostile and benevolent) and to determine if these differences influence the evaluation of specific behaviors by teaching faculty. Additionally, the present study seeks to validate the variability hypothesis, asserting that men are over-represented in the extremes of distributions compared to women concerning analyzed sexist attitudes. Eighty university students participated voluntarily and anonymously, completing three questionnaires on ambivalent sexism, neosexism, and the assessment of sexist behaviors by their instructors. Consistent with prior research, the results reveal higher levels of sexism among men in this context. Despite these differences, both men and women align in evaluating specific behaviors in teaching faculty, irrespective of their individual levels of sexism. Finally, the data presented support the variability hypothesis, indicating greater variability in sexist attitudes among men than women. These findings suggest that general attitudes assessed in most questionnaires might not be representative of the behaviors and attitudes that people display in real specific situations. This could change how future research and interventions approach these issues.

The Influence of Attitudes and Subjective Norms of Domestic Millennial Tourists on the Intention to Stay at An Environmentally-Friendly Hotel

This research aims to determine the influence of domestic millennial tourists' attitudes and subjective norms on their intention to stay at an environmentally friendly hotel. Attitude is the result of a psychological process that cannot be observed directly, but must be inferred from what is said or done. Attitudes towards environmentally friendly products are a relevant subject. Subjective norms are a person's beliefs regarding expectations which are influenced by other parties, both individually and in groups, to perform or not perform a particular behavior. Intention is an indicator of the extent to which people are willing to carry out a specific behavior or a person's willingness to carry out a certain behavior. This research focuses on domestic millennial tourists, consisting of 100 respondents. The data were analyzed with multiple regression statistical technique resulting a positive and significant influence of the attitude and subjective norm variables on the intention to stay at an environmentally friendly hotel. It was investigated that domestic millennial tourists are highly concerned about environmentally friendly hotel to be selected as their accommodation and it was also found out that they obtain direct influence from their closest relatives in determining the choice of environmentally friendly hotels

Image of the Future: An Optimistic Tragedy

The article raises the question of possible variations of attitude to the future, both in theoretical discourses and in the worldview of the contemporary. The problem of the future (humanity) is put in the context of the problem of crisis of the modern state of society, including the context of the crisis of modern capitalism. The author shows that modern capitalism, which has spread to the whole world, no longer has opportunities for extensive development and for taking its crisis phenomena outside its own system. In this regard, there is a way to solve the internal problems of this system on the principle of bringing them into the future. The article demonstrates two versions of understanding the future: the first one – a return to the past – represents either a retreat backwards in order to free up space/time for a subsequent intensive move forward, or a version of barbarization/archaization/primitivization of the present, conscious or not. The second version of the future’ image, with all its possible tragicism, is the image of the future as a future, another, different, something that has not yet happened. This version requires a new social theory that explains the process and allows to develop an action strategy.

Writing performance in primary grade: exploring the links between cognitive and motivational variables

Current theoretical models of writing suggest that cognitive and motivational processes interact with each other during written production. However, despite the growing interest in motivational variables in writing, there are still few efforts to study them together with cognitive variables. Therefore, this study aimed to test the possibility that the cognitive processes of transcription and executive functions may be related to writing performance, through their link with the writing-motivational variables of self-efficacy and attitudes. For that, 157 Portuguese third and fourth graders planned and completed one opinion essay, performed transcription tasks, and completed motivation-related questionnaires. Furthermore, schoolteachers completed an executive function questionnaire about each student and provided their school grades. Results showed that motivation, specifically self-efficacy, did not predict Grade 3 and 4 writing performance. However, attitudes were predictors of written planning and text length. More specifically, attitudes and handwriting fluency contributed to text length just as attitudes and spelling accuracy contributed to written planning. There was no evidence of indirect effects from cognitive variables on writing performance via motivation variables. These findings provide original information on the links between cognition and motivation in writing, which may be useful to guide the teaching of writing. In line with effective instructional approaches to writing, current findings further support the importance of jointly targeting the cognitive and affective dimensions of writing.

Gender differences associated with knowledge, attitude, and behavior about cough etiquette in primary health care

Introduction: Cough Etiquette is a non-pharmacological intervention in preventing respiratory infections caused by viruses or bacteria in health care facilities. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between gender with knowledge, attitude, and behavior about cough etiquette in TB patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study with 55 new TB cases aged > 18 years taken purposively from the TB 03 register of six Samarinda Health Centers who received treatment from July 2021 to April 2022. We used a questionnaire to measure knowledge, attitudes, and behavior toward cough etiquette. The knowledge variable consists of 13 questions, the attitude variables comprised 6 statements, and the practice variables comprised 6 statements using a Likert scale. Data analysis used the chi-square test with a significance level of < 0.05. Result: Most TB patients covered their mouth with their hands (56.2%) or did not cover at all (16.6%). As many as 34% of TB patients used their sleeve arm, elbow, or tissue. There was an association between knowledge of cough etiquette in TB patients at primary health care (p = 0.008), attitude (p = 0.004), but not significant with behavior (p = 0.691). Knowledge and attitudes about cough etiquette have a relationship with influenced by gender. Conclusion: Men with TB who seek treatment at the primary health care tend to understand clearly the required attitude towards practicing cough etiquette. In places with a high risk of transmission, people with TB disease are advised to consistently apply cough etiquette to reduce the transmission of M. tuberculosis to other visitors to health care facilities.

The Influence of Attitudes on Environmental Activism Content on Social Media on the Desire to Support Environmental Issue Content

Now that we have entered an era of technological progress, a lot of social activism has started to take place on social media. There has been a lot of research discussing environmental activism that takes place on various social media. This research focuses on a person's attitude towards the circulation of environmental issues on social media. Attitude variables are taken from the TPB. Previous research examined all components of the TPB. However, this research only discusses attitudes that will have an influence. Apart from that, this research also discusses how a person's attitude after being exposed to environmental issue content can influence the desire to like the upload, donate, and volunteer. Research data was obtained using a precise quantitative method, namely by taking free samples. This method is carried out by distributing questionnaires on social media to make it easier for researchers to obtain samples that meet the criteria. Then the data obtained from distributing the questionnaires was analyzed using the SmartPLS and SPSS applications. From the results obtained, there is a positive relationship and significant influence between the predictor variables and the independent variables. This means that there really is an interplay between attitudes towards the content of environmental activism and the specified desires. Environmental activism content on social media is received positively by every individual. This is what makes them increasingly want to like environmental issue content, donate money and volunteer.

Community mental health services in Europe: the state of art

AbstractIn Europe there is significant variability of attitudes, procedure and strategies in clinical care between psychiatrists and settings across different regions and countries. However, there is a significant overrepresentation of data from mental health services from Western and Northern European countries, due a lack of data from Eastern and Central European countries as it has been suggested the Eastern and Central European regions are a “blind spot on the global mental health map”. In respect to community mental health services, Northern and Western countries introduced a large array of multidisciplinary community-based services for people with mental health problems and reorganized the mental health care services towards the community mental health care, replacing largely large hospitals and hospital-based care following recovery-oriented care models with introduction of numerous services which supported full recovery, including supported employment and housing. This process is only in the beginning in the majority of countries in the South and East of Europe. Here we present the data from these countries including the results of the RECOVER-E study (Large-scale implementation of community based mental health care for people with severe and enduring mental ill health in Europe), which incorporated the implementation of community mental health services in five South-eastern European countries.Disclosure of InterestNone Declared

NURSES' ATTITUDE TOWARDS PATIENTS WITH MENTAL ILLNESS IN A TERTIARYCARE HOSPITAL

Nurses play a crucial role in the care of patients with mental illness, yet their attitudes towards these patients can significantly impact the quality of care provided. This study aimed to assess nurses' attitudes towards patients with mental illness in a general hospital setting. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 150 nurses working in various hospital departments. The Attitudes Towards Mental Illness (ATMI) scale was utilized to measure nurses' attitudes. Results revealed that most nurses held positive attitudes towards patients with mental illness, with a mean ATMI score of 75.4 (SD=6.8) out of 100. However, a subgroup analysis identified variations in attitudes based on nurses' years of experience and department of work. Nurses with more years of experience tended to exhibit more positive attitudes toward mental illness. At the same time, those working in acute care settings showed slightly more negative attitudes compared to those in psychiatric units. These findings underscore the importance of addressing nurses' attitudes towards mental illness to ensure the delivery of high-quality and stigma-free care to patients with mental health conditions.

This study determines the factors that influence Islamic financial literacy, namely basic Islamic financial knowledge, knowledge of Islamic debt concepts, Islamic investment knowledge, knowledge of risk management and protection of Islamic assets and factors that influence Islamic financial attitudes are distrust, retention time, power-prestige, quality, and anxiety. A total of 200 questionnaires were distributed to all Jabodetabek people randomly with the criteria of being Muslim, having an identity in Jabodetabek, and having income. The analytical method used is Path Analysis or path analysis. The results of the study indicate that Islamic financial literacy and Islamic financial attitudes owned by a person will have a significant positive effect on one's locus of control and financial management behavior directly. However, the locus of control did not succeed in mediating the variables of Islamic financial literacy and Islamic financial attitudes on financial management behavior. So it means that if someone has Islamic financial literacy and good Islamic financial attitude, it will affect the locus of control and good financial management behavior.

Premonition-driven deep learning model for short-term ship violent roll motion prediction based on the hull attitude premonition mechanism

Ship transit forecasting can provide advanced movement information to a multidimensional wave motion compensation system. However, traditional deep learning models based on data-driven or physical data have difficulty in accurately predicting the rapid variations in ship motion attitudes that frequently occur in complex ocean environments. Therefore, a premonition-driven deep learning model is proposed in this paper to significantly improve the prediction accuracy of ship violent roll motion. This model applies precursor information to predict premonitory values of ship prospective motion attitudes based on an integrated statistical regression model and then employs these premonitory values to revise the outputs of the deep learning time series model. First, a hull attitude premonition mechanism is presented based on biological premonition cognitive behaviour, which captures the correlation relationships between extreme values by downgrading the globally continuous time series prediction problem to a time-independent regression problem. The corresponding methods for predicting local extreme values and deep feedforward neural network cluster are established based on these correlation relationships between the extreme values to achieve precise premonitory values. Second, the time and amplitude variables of the extreme angle values are transformed to countdown time variables and sequential sets of premonitory angle values. Two types of premonition units and their respective premonitory long short-term memory neural networks are constructed to upgrade the regression problem to a globally continuous time series prediction problem. Finally, a single-step output recurrent strategy is applied to forecast the short-term ship motion attitude for fifteen seconds by considering eleven initially predicted points across the two datasets. In sixty-six simulation experiments, the mean absolute error, root mean squared error, and mean absolute percentage error of the premonition-driven long short-term memory neural networks are considerably lower than those of traditional deep learning models. These simulation experiments verify that the premonition-driven deep learning model can effectively forecast short-term violent ship roll motion and provide safeguards for cargo transfer.

Attitude towards Spirituality and Spiritual Care among Nurses of Bharatpur Hospital.

Understanding spirituality and spiritual care is a prerequisite for holistic care in nursing. Spirituality is an important dimension of human existence with a crucial role in health promotion.
