The problem of implementing reasoned education of students in the field of self-determination in marriage and family relationship raises the question of what psychological determinants contribute to the formation of complete and harmonious ideas about marriage which perform a guiding function when mastering a new social role. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of ideas about future marriage depending on the moral orientation of young women at different stages of age development: adolescence (from 17 to 19 years), early adulthood (from 20 to 22 years). In the study there was used review and generalization contents psychological and pedagogical literature; psych diagnostic method; comparative analysis of statistical data. 322 female students took part in the cross-sectional study. There are no general substantive characteristics in the ideas about future marriage in adolescence. In the group of young women with egocentric orientation when forming ideas about their own marital behavior, such an element of the cognitive component as the fulfillment of duties is actualized, in the emotional component a positive attitude towards family as a social institution, their own family, future marriage partner, themselves, romantic love is revealed. Among young women with a group-centric orientation in the image “I am a future wife” there is empathy, a positive attitude towards romantic love, an attitude towards personal autonomy. Among young women with a humanistic orientation in thinking about the future marital roles there are the basic elements of cognitive, partially emotional and behavioral components. In the group of young women with a world-creating orientation the content of the image “I am a future wife” is characterized by the completeness of the representation of the cognitive component, saturation with such elements of the emotional component as a positive attitude towards family as a social institution, their own family, future marriage partner, themselves, future children, romantic love, leadership and responsibility in the family. In early adulthood compared with adolescence there is a tendency to reduce the number of meaningful characteristics in the image “I am a future wife” among young women with egocentric, humanistic and world-creating orientations. The invariant characteristic is a personal independence in the studied image. Young women with egocentric, humanistic and world-creating orientations have such elements as caring, patience, respect for other people, balance.

"Modern learning environment is filled with digital distractions. Distractions lead students to engage in multitasking, i.e., task-switching, during the teaching and learning process - to shift attention from learning content to non-course-related activities. Psychological research is mostly focused on examining the negative effects of multitasking in three areas: cognition and academic performance; health; and interpersonal relationships. This paper deals with the field of academic achievement - specifically the effects that digital distractions have on students and the learning process. An analysis of articles published in scientific journals in the last five years has been done. Articles were searched through the EBSCO Discovery Service, and the searched terms were ?multitasking?, ?digital distraction? and ?learning?, in the title, abstract and/or keywords. In order for the article to be included in the analysis, it was necessary for it to deal with the learning process at least in part. Thus, 11 articles that were the results of empirical studies and 4 review/theoretically oriented articles were selected. The results of empirical studies show that multitasking may reduce learners’ capacity for cognitive processing causing poor academic performance. Multitasking is more common in those media that provide instant emotional gratification, such as social media applications and sites. College instructors notice that digital distractions in the classroom negatively affect the teacher-student relationship, impair their job satisfaction, as well as the integrity of the classroom learning environment. Review studies, among other things, show that digital self-control interventions, which have been developed to alleviate the negative impact of digital distractions, are not effective enough. Banning the use of mobile devices in the classroom is not a good solution either, because banning the use of phones can encourage nomophobia, which will also negatively affect concentration and learning. For older students, banning the use of laptops leads to absenteeism from classes. What teachers can do is encourage students to write lecture notes by hand - in addition to making students more active, it has been confirmed that handwritten notes are more detailed than digital ones and lead to a more permanent recall. Technology breaks can also be effective in reducing multitasking: after a period of learning without multitasking, there is a break in which students can check text messages or social media."

"Extant research in risk-taking and self-harm behaviors has indicated that gender, age, and certain socioeconomic factors are associated with risk-taking behaviors. Our study tested the connection between gender, age, having children at home, and risk-taking behavior among adults. We predicted that having children at home would be associated with reduced risky behavior for both women and men, but more so in women than men. More than 450 (N = 454) American adults (M age = 33.3 years, SD = 11.9) were recruited from Prolific. Participants identified as male (54.4%), female (45.4%) or transgender (0.2%). Ethnicity was self-identified as Caucasian/White (80.4%), African American/Black (7.7%), multiracial (4.4%), Latinx (4%), Asian/Asian American (3.1%), Native American or Alaskan Native (0.2%), and other (0.2%). Participants completed the Risky, Impulsive, and Self-Destructive Behavior Questionnaire (Sadeh & Baskin-Sommers, 2016) to measure engagement in various forms of risky behavior throughout their lifetime including illegal risky behavior and risky sexual behavior. Differences in illegal behavior, risky sexual behavior, and other types of risky behavior were found between men and women, F(3, 441) = 9.09, p < .0001, partial ?2 = .06, with men reporting more risky behavior of all types. ANCOVAs were used to further assess the relationships between gender identity and having children (IVs) and total risky behavior and illegal behavior (DVs); age was covaried. Significant interactions between IVs revealed that male participants with children at home engaged in significantly more risky sexual behavior, F(1, 441) = 4.24, p = .04, overall risky behavior, F(1, 441) = 3.89, p = .049, and illegal behavior, F(1, 441) = 3.59, p = .059, than those without children at home. For women, there was no relationship between having children at home and risky behavior, illegal behavior, or risky sexual behavior. The results may inform parenting education and law enforcement."
“现有的关于冒险和自残行为的研究表明，性别、年龄和某些社会经济因素与冒险行为有关。我们的研究测试了性别、年龄、家里有孩子和成年人冒险行为之间的联系。我们预测，无论对男性还是女性来说，在家生孩子都能减少危险行为，但女性比男性更容易受到影响。从多产地区招募了450多名(N = 454)名美国成年人(M年龄= 33.3岁，SD = 11.9)。参与者被认定为男性(54.4%)、女性(45.4%)或跨性别者(0.2%)。种族自认为白种人/白人(80.4%)、非裔美国人/黑人(7.7%)、多种族(4.4%)、拉丁裔(4%)、亚洲/亚裔美国人(3.1%)、美洲原住民或阿拉斯加原住民(0.2%)和其他(0.2%)。参与者完成了冒险、冲动和自毁行为问卷(Sadeh & Baskin-Sommers, 2016)，以衡量他们一生中参与各种形式的危险行为，包括非法危险行为和危险的性行为。男性和女性在非法行为、危险性行为和其他类型的危险行为方面存在差异，F(3,441) = 9.09, p < 0.0001, partial ?2 = 0.06，男性报告的所有类型的危险行为都更多。采用ANCOVAs进一步评估性别认同与生育(IVs)及总危险行为和非法行为(DVs)之间的关系;年龄是共变的。IVs间的显著交互作用表明，家中有儿童的男性参与者的危险性行为(F(1441) = 4.24, p = 0.04)、总体危险性行为(F(1441) = 3.89, p = 0.049)和非法行为(F(1441) = 3.59, p = 0.059)显著高于家中无儿童的男性参与者。对于女性来说，在家生孩子与危险行为、非法行为或危险的性行为之间没有关系。研究结果可以为父母教育和执法提供参考。”

"One of the emerging areas in the field of neurocriminology is the unearthing of a possible relationship between genes and violent criminal behaviors. Several recent studies revealed strong links between genetic variation in a monoamine oxidase gene (MAOA) and aggressiveness. The gene is responsible for translating enzymes key for catabolizing amine neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline that are related to mood and behaviors. Critical changes of these genes result in Brunner syndrome characterized by lower intelligence quotient, problematic impulsive behavior, and unpredictable mood swings. Moreover, the gene has been associated with a variety of psychiatric disorders such as antisocial personality, as well as gang involvement, and a rise in weapons use. In the last two decades, a significant increase in the use of neuroscientist experts to testify in criminal proceedings has been relied upon across the United States. Based on a qualitative analysis of relevant case law, the study finds that the gene can be linked with the violent behaviors of offenders, and defense attorneys can readily get the evidence admitted at trial. However, this study shows that the behavioral genetic defense fails in two-thirds of murder cases. The extent to which genes can be blamed for antisocial behavior remains illusory. This body of court rulings suggests that the so-called “warrior gene” defense fails to exonerate an individual for homicide."

"The present study aims to extend our knowledge about the false memories from an adaptation of the DRM paradigm (Roediger & McDermott, 1995) in order to generate memory errors for everyday life action lists. In this perspective, the standard DRM task has been adapted, replacing the associated word lists with thematically related action lists. Each action list refers to a temporally connected action routine, i.e. a script. The sentences describing actions automatically involve visual and motor simulation of the scene. Therefore, the issue is to know whether the encoding conditions of enactment and motor imagery compared to verbal encoding (as control) impact false memories. Compared to the numerous studies on imagination effects on false memories, the enactment effect on the production of false memories of thematically related actions has not yet been tested. Therefore, we compared three experimental conditions: (1) a control condition, in which participants were asked to hear all lists attentively; (2) an imagery condition, where participants were instructed to visualize themselves performing each action, presented orally; (3) an enactment condition, participants had to mime each action heard as if they really were performing it. Then, without having been warned beforehand, all participants carried out a recognition test. The results confirmed the creation of false memories for associated action lists (scripted actions) and therefore valid this new version of the DRM task. However, false memories were of the same magnitude under all encoding conditions. These findings ask into question the classical models of memory, which assume that enactment and visual imagery should favour distinctive conceptual processing with the consequence of reducing false recognition. However, the field of embodied cognition might provide an alternative hypothesis that merit to be discussed and explored."

"Anthropological literature indicates that Malta, by virtue of its central position in the Mediterranean, is somewhat structured by codes of honour and shame (Bradford & Clark, 2012; Schneider, 1971; O’Reilly Mizzi, 1994). Honour refers to claimed status by an individual and necessitates that the social group affirms that claim. It holds a positive social value. Shame may be understood in either positive or negative terms. When construed in a positive sense it indicates consideration of one’s reputation and standing in the community’s eyes. On the other hand, negatively, shame refers to loss of position and consequent mortification. Shame is also construed as an emotion involving an evaluation of the self as one that is inherently imperfect. Despite the awareness of the potential negative effects of shame on the psychotherapeutic relationship (Gilbert & Procter, 2006; Rustomjee, 2009), shame in psychotherapy has been largely under-researched. The current study is based on the results of a doctoral thesis which explored how Maltese psychotherapists understand and manage feelings of shame in a particular social context. A qualitative approach was taken to explore the individual perspectives of ten Maltese psychotherapists whose years of professional experience ranged between 6 and 28. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and the data gathered from the interviews was analysed by means of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Four super-ordinate themes emerged: The Therapist’s World of Shame, Beholding Patients’ Shame; A Shared Experience and The Island of Shame. Participants described themselves as having a high propensity for feelings of shame and inadequacy, and referred to their cultural context as “a breeding ground for shame”. Multiple roles in the Maltese professional arena were perceived to augment these difficulties. The findings indicate that feelings of shame and inadequacy were frequently experienced by Maltese psychotherapists in various professional contexts, including clinical supervision. They also emphasise the importance of helping psychotherapists deconstruct and normalise feelings of shame and inadequacy by linking them to social and cultural dynamics. The lived experiences of shame emanating from these contexts are examined and the perceived impact of these dominant societal codes on the therapist’s self and professional practice are considered. Implications for training and supervisory needs of trainee psychotherapists are discussed."

"The Rheumatoid-arthritis considered as a chronic disease, which affects approximately 21 million individuals worldwide (UN World Population Database, 2004 revision). The rheumatoid-arthritis affects 15% of Indian population, such as over 180 million people suffers by rheumatoid-arthritis in India. In the present study, total sample of 122 male and female rheumatoid arthritis patients (Mean age = 55) were taken from one RA specialized hospital in Pune city (India). Incidental and snow-ball sampling methods were used for data collection. The Brief Resilience Scale (Smith et al., 2008), Brief Coping Inventory (Carver et al., 1987), PANAS-SF (Watson & Tellegen, 1988), and Pain Anxiety Symptoms Scale (PASS-20) (McCracken & Dingra, 2002) were used. Age found positively correlated with duration of suffering (r = .383, P < .01), active coping found positively correlated (r = .224, P < .01) with resilience and positive affect was found positively correlated with resilience (r =. 94, P < .01), and pain anxiety found positively correlated with negative affect (r = .234, P < .01). In regression, results indicated that religious coping and negative affect were found jointly 19% predictor of approach coping, and physiological anxiety emerged as only predictor of negative affect which was explaining 4.8% of variance.

"Experimental research on cognition needs more realistic paradigms to achieve ecological validity as well as to transfer and eventually generalize the results to clinical practice. Selective attention was found to be highly related to memory and training of attentional filtering enhanced memory performance. Moreover, a real memory room might provide a more interesting environment for cognitive training, even though it is very demanding for the examiner to arrange the set-up. Therefore, we developed a change detection task using a virtual reality (VR) environment and compared it with one in a real environment (RE) room. Data of healthy younger and older adults were analyzed regarding their memory and distractor inhibition performance. The results indicate that both test set-ups reveal age effects but only RE in younger adults produces a distractor effect. For younger adults, VR was found to be more challenging as compared to the real room whereas OA performed similar in VR and RE. Technical development like VR becomes more and more attractive to create interesting experimental test settings but their additional value needs to be further investigated."

"Research shows that people are perceived differently according to their parenting status. In particular, people who are voluntarily childless people are perceived more negatively than parents or people who are involuntarily childless people. Based on this information, the present research aims to examine how women and men who are voluntarily childless people are perceived in Turkey, a culture that cares about children. In this study, the participants (N = 35; mean age = 28.34) were asked to write down ""the adjectives that come to mind when they think of women and men who do not want to have children"". Participants were reached through an online data website http://www.surveey.com. Next, participants' responses were categorized using thematic analysis: personality traits (positive and negative), independence, and anxiety. According to the themes, men who were voluntarily childless were stereotyped more negatively than women who were voluntarily childless. Positive personality traits included realistic and hardworking (e.g., career-wise, workaholic, and hardworking) for both women and men, but women were also perceived as sociable and confident (e.g., successful, strong). Negative personal traits indicated that both groups were perceived as irresponsible and egoistic. However, men were also perceived as immature and womanizers (e.g., casanova, playboy). In addition, anxiety was a prominent theme for both groups. However, in this theme, while the emphasis was on the material things of men, the pregnancy period and body deterioration were emphasized in women."

"The Covid-19 crisis has forced many employees to telework (TLW). TLW can eventually generate a feeling of professional isolation (PI) for some workers and the higher the TLW, the higher the feeling of PI (Golden, 2008). PI is known to have negative impacts on organisational and teleworker outcomes such as job satisfaction (e.g., Bentley et al., 2016) or the adoption of organisational citizenship behaviours (OCBs) (Mulki and Jaramillo, 2011). OCBs are largely influenced by the organisational psychological ownership (OPO) (Zhang et al., 2021) which also influences organisational identification (ORI) (Van Dyne & Pierce, 2004). Yet, the relationship between ORI and OPO seems to be quite complex, considering for instance that OPO predicts the intention to leave the organisation while ORI does not (Knapp et al., 2014). Thus, this relationship deserves special attention for its implication in the OPO/OCBs relationship. Furthermore, the binding dimension of TLW is likely to have had complex consequences and may imply a feeling of PI, the moderating role of which in the OPO/OCBs relationship could be interesting to study. The study population consisted of 185 participants, divided into 77.3% women and 22.7% men. The questionnaire included a measure of OPO (4 items), ORI (5), OCBs (6) and PI (7). Results showed that ORI is a mediator of the OPO and OCBs relationship (?=.1136; p=.0199; LLCI*=.0182 and ULCI**=.2089) and ORI explains 11.3% of the variance. The analysis reveals a full mediation since OPO does not predict OCBs anymore when ORI is integrated (p < .084). They also showed that PI moderates the relationship between OPO and OCBs (?=.0911; p=.0314; LLCI*=.0082 and ULCI**=.1739) and that explains 2.1% of the variance. First of all, this study reveals the relationship between OPO and OCBs is quite complex since it is both mediated by ORI and also moderated by PI. The results may seem contradictory as they show that a high level of OPO combined with a high level of PI leads to a high level of OCBs; while we could have imagined the opposite with high levels of PI. The discussion will focus on two eventual explanations: seeking more relational closeness through OCBs and compensating the fear of being perceived as not working enough (Taskin & Edwards, 2007)."
