11	Gymnasiestudenters akademiska motivation : En studie om könsskillnaders och gymnasieinriktningars påverkan / High school students academic motivation : The effects of biological sex and high school program on academic motivation Wickman Tiller, Angelica, Stige, Christoffer January 2021 (has links) Föreliggande studies syfte var att undersöka om biologiskt kön och gymnasieinriktninghade en påverkan på studenters akademiska motivation. Kunskap om vad som påverkarstudenters motivation kan hjälpa gymnasieskolan att utveckla anpassade metoder ochläroplaner för att bemöta studenternas behov. I föreliggande enkätstudie deltog 204studenter från årskurs ett till tre som var geografiskt spridda över Sverige, och med enfördelning i teoretisk, estetisk och praktisk gymnasieinriktning från flertaletgymnasieskolor. Föreliggande studie genomfördes med instrumentet academicmotivational scale – high school edition. Resultatet visade att störst påverkan förakademisk motivation fanns i extrinsic motivation, medan intrinsic motivation intetenderade att ha betydelse för motivationen i samma utsträckning. Som tidigare studierpekat mot visade föreliggande studie att framtidsutsikten var den starkaste motiverandekraften hos gymnasiestudenterna. De studenterna med praktisk inriktning visade en högreakademisk motivation, biologiskt kön indikerade marginell påverkan på akademiskmotivation men föreföll inte vara avgörande. / This studies aim was to investigate if biological sex and high school program influencesstudents’ academic motivation.

12	Stigma, Help-Seeking Behaviors, and Use of Services Among College Students with Self-Reported Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Feagin, Angelina Marie 01 January 2019 (has links) People experiencing mental health illnesses such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who do not receive mental health treatment services (MHTS) are at a higher risk of committing crimes. The research problem of this study was to fill the gap in the literature concerning gender, sex at birth, and gender identity differences as predictors of attitudes toward perceived stigma in help-seeking behavior (HSB) and use of MHTS. The sample size included 5,000 participants in the de-identified secondary data set of students from 26 universities and colleges across the United States. The Healthy Minds Study collected these data in 2016-2017 using the Patient Health Questionnaire. To address the research questions guiding the study, one-way ANOVA was used to test for differences in groups based on sexual orientation and gender identity for measures of perception of stigma, use of MHTS, and HSB regarding receiving mental health services. Between groups, MANOVA was used to assess differences in groups based on gender identity and sexual orientation on a linear combination of the dependent measures of perception of stigma in use of MHTS and HSB. There were directional differences between groups based on independent variables gender and sexual orientation on measures of the dependent variables perception of stigma in use of MHTS and of HSB. However, a closer examination of the results indicated that the effect size associated with the directional differences was weak. The results from this study may help clinicians to identify treatment challenges related to biological sex and gender identity and help to influence future interventions to better accommodate the contemporary population of men and women experiencing symptoms of PTSD.

13	Conflict dynamics within the gender spectrum of a large South African sugar manufacturing company / Alicia Beneke Beneke, Alicia January 2015 (has links) Objective: The primary objective of this study was to investigate the perception and handling of interpersonal conflict within the gender spectrum compilation of biological sex and gender identity. Methods: The research of this study was conducted by means of a theoretical study and a quantitative empirical analysis. Literature analysis and scientific theories form the basis for the first three chapters of this study. These include the philosophies of Karl Marx and Max Weber, followed by a detailed discussion on the dynamics of conflict. The empirical analysis utilized cross-sectional survey design, with a combined convenience quota sample of employees (n=133) within the company taken. This consisted of top management, middle management and lower management. The empirical study utilized the Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI) and the Rahim Organisational Conflict Inventory-II (ROCI-II). The Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI) provided self-determining assessments of masculinity and femininity in terms of the respondent’s self-reported control of socially desirable, stereotypically masculine and feminine personality characteristics. The Rahim Organisational Conflict Inventory-II (ROCI-II) measured the present methods of conflict management specifically within an organizational environment. Results: It was noted that there was no difference in how pure biological sex (males and females) perceived and handled conflict within the workplace; but there was a difference in how the different gender identity groups (masculine males vs. feminine males and feminine females vs. masculine females) perceived and handled conflict. Conclusion: This study highlighted the conflict-dynamics within the gender-spectrum of a large South African sugar manufacturing company. Results of the study proved that the motivation towards this study was achieved in the sense that, although there were no differences in how different genders perceive and handle conflict, differences were found in the different gender identities within each of those genders. It is recommended that further research include a comparative study between two or three manufacturing companies to see how different companies within the same industry deviate from or resemble the results of this study. Further research could also determine whether there are differences, by cross-checking all four gender identity groups (masculine males, feminine males, feminine females and masculine females) using the MANOVA statistical procedure. / MCom (Labour Relations Management), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2015 Conflict Interpersonal conflict Biological sex Gender identity Masculinity Femininity Perceptions Causes Consequences Conflict-handling styles Manufacturing Konflik Interpersoonlike konflik Biologiese geslag Geslagsidentiteit Manlikheid Vroulikheid Persepsies Oorsake Gevolge Konflikhanteringstyle Vervaardiging

15	L’impact de l’exposition aux médias sur l’évolution de la détresse psychologique des travailleurs de la santé et des services sociaux du Québec lors de la pandémie COVID-19 Jalbert, Megane 11 1900 (has links) Contexte. La pandémie de la COVID-19 a amené son lot de détresse psychologique chez les travailleurs de la santé et des services sociaux (TSSS) du Québec. Ceux-ci se trouvaient déjà à risque d’éprouver des difficultés de santé mentale avant la pandémie, étant exposés à plusieurs événements critiques dans leur travail quotidien. Parallèlement à cette réalité, la pandémie a été très médiatisée et des points de presse quotidiens animés par la santé publique et le gouvernement étaient diffusés sur plusieurs plates-formes d’informations. Les études montrent que l’exposition médiatique à des traumas collectifs, tel que la COVID-19, est associée à des niveaux de détresse psychologique plus élevés chez la population générale. Les femmes sont aussi susceptibles de vivre des niveaux plus élevés de détresse psychologique que les hommes. Or, aucune étude ne fait état de l’impact de l’exposition aux médias sur la détresse psychologique vécue chez les TSSS en contexte de pandémie, ni en général. Objectifs. (1) Mesurer l’impact du degré d’exposition aux médias sur l’évolution de la détresse psychologique des TSSS pendant 37 semaines. (2) Mesurer l’effet modérateur du sexe biologique sur la relation entre le degré d’exposition aux médias et la détresse psychologique des TSSS. Méthode. Le devis est longitudinal, étant une étude de cohorte prospective. Ce sont 830 TSSS québécois qui ont participé à l’étude pendant les 1ière et 2ième vagues de la COVID-19, de mai 2020 à janvier 2021. La détresse psychologique, définie par des symptômes dépressifs et anxieux, a été mesurée à l’aide du PHQ-9 et du GAD-7. Des analyses statistiques à l’aide du modèle linéaire mixte ont été effectuées. Résultats. (1) Les TSSS qui se sont beaucoup ou énormément exposés aux médias rapportent un nombre significativement plus élevé de symptômes dépressifs que ceux étant très peu exposés. Les TSSS qui se sont beaucoup exposés aux médias rapportent un nombre significativement plus élevé de symptômes anxieux que ceux étant très peu exposés. (2) Il n’y a pas de différence significative entre les hommes et les femmes quant à la détresse psychologique vécue en fonction du degré d’exposition aux médias. Conclusions. Des campagnes de sensibilisation et d’éducation devraient être effectuées dans le réseau de la santé et des services sociaux quant à l’exposition aux médias des TSSS afin de ne pas créer de détresse psychologique inutile à ces derniers. L’exploration d’un temps limite d’exposition et du type de médias à privilégier constituent des pistes de recherches intéressantes pour la prévention de la détresse psychologique. / Context. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought its share of psychological distress to Quebec’s health and social services workers (HSSWs). These workers were already at risk of experiencing mental health issues prior to the pandemic, as they were exposed to several critical events in their daily work. Along with this reality, the pandemic was highly publicized, with daily press briefings by public health and other government officials being broadcast on several news platforms. Studies show that media exposure to mass trauma, such as COVID-19, is associated with higher levels of psychological distress in the general population. Women are also likely to experience higher levels of psychological distress than men. Yet, there are no studies reporting on the impact of media exposure on psychological distress experienced among HSSWs during the pandemic, or in general. Objectives. (1) To measure the impact of media exposure level on changes in psychological distress among HSSWs over 37 weeks. (2) To measure the moderating effect of biological sex on the relationship between media exposure level and psychological distress among HSSWs. Method. The design was longitudinal, being a prospective cohort study. A total of 830 Quebec’s HSSWs participated in the study during waves 1 and 2 of COVID-19, from May 2020 to January 2021. Psychological distress, conceptualized as depression and anxiety symptoms, was measured using the PHQ-9 and GAD-7. Statistical analyses using linear mixed models were performed. Results. (1) HSSWs who considered themselves often or greatly exposed to media reported significantly more depression symptoms than those who considered themselves rarely exposed. HSSWs who considered themselves often exposed to media reported significantly more anxiety symptoms than those who considered themselves rarely exposed. (2) There was no significant difference between men and women in experienced psychological distress as a function of media exposure level. Conclusions. Awareness and education campaigns should be carried out in the health and social services network regarding the media exposure of HSSWs in order to avoid creating unnecessary psychological distress for them. The exploration of a limit exposure time and the type of media to be favored are interesting avenues of research to prevent psychological distress. détresse psychologique exposition aux médias analyse en fonction du sexe COVID-19 étude longitudinale prospective Psychological distress Health and social services workers Media exposure Analyses according to biological sex Prospective cohort study Psychology / Psychologie (UMI : 0621)
16	From Snow White to Frozen : An evaluation of popular gender representation indicators applied to Disney’s princess films / Från Snövit till Frost : En utvärdering av populära könsrepresentations-indikatorer tillämpade på Disneys prinsessfilmer Nyh, Johan January 2015 (has links) Simple content analysis methods, such as the Bechdel test and measuring percentage of female talk time or characters, have seen a surge of attention from mainstream media and in social media the last couple of years. Underlying assumptions are generally shared with the gender role socialization model and consequently, an importance is stated, due to a high degree to which impressions from media shape in particular young children’s identification processes. For young girls, the Disney Princesses franchise (with Frozen included) stands out as the number one player commercially as well as in customer awareness. The vertical lineup of Disney princesses spans from the passive and domestic working Snow White in 1937 to independent and super-power wielding princess Elsa in 2013, which makes the line of films an optimal test subject in evaluating above-mentioned simple content analysis methods. As a control, a meta-study has been conducted on previous academic studies on the same range of films. The sampled research, within fields spanning from qualitative content analysis and semiotics to coded content analysis, all come to the same conclusions regarding the general changes over time in representations of female characters. The objective of this thesis is to answer whether or not there is a correlation between these changes and those indicated by the simple content analysis methods, i.e. whether or not the simple popular methods are in general coherence with the more intricate academic methods. / <p>Betyg VG (skala IG-VG)</p> Disney princesses Disney princesses gender Bechdel Bechdel test Walt Disney Pixar Frozen children girl culture gender representations talk time talktime gendertimer equality content analysis female feminism feminist gender role socialization model gender role socialization model passive domestic active media post-feminist gender role portrayals key measures popular nature or nurture genes or environment gender differences expressions of gender gender experiments neurological brain plasticity constructivist cultivation theory social cognitive theory quantitative quantitative measures quantitative methods stereotypes stereotype stereotypical women character count biological sex biological gender metrics femininity textual analysis submissive submissive behaviour independence daddy's girl patriarchy patriarchal patriarchal approval wicked women old wicked women wicked witch male masculine masculine characteristics feminine characteristics genders marrying marriage love at first sight empowerment fairy tale fairy tales film movie films movies Mulan Pocahontas Snow White Snow White and the seven dwarfs Cinderella Sleeping Beauty Little Mermaid The Little Mermaid Beauty and the Beast Aladdin Tangled Brave Frozen The Princess and the Frog Merida relationship relationship formation true love true love's kiss sisterhood sisterly Grimm Grimm brothers parental approval matriarchal approval matriarchal matriarchy stereotyping evil queen rate rater rating measure measuring wicked stepmother binary gender gender binarity binary genders gender identities gender identity gender identity formation identity formation animation cell animation the Smurfette principle strong women strong girls girlie positivism positivistic film studies analysis analyses antagonism action coding cultivation effect cultivation effects socialization effect socialization effects coded content analysis simple metrics cognition theory connotations cultivation theory socialization theory depictions of femininity plasticity human brain damsels in distress feminist research inequality gender inequality media studies heroines mass media social media images of women woman as image reading interpretation modern day fairy tales Disney prinsessor Disneyprinsessor Disney-prinsessor kön genus genusvetenskap Bechdel Bechdel test Bechdeltest Bechdeltestet Walt Disney Pixar Frost barn flickor kulturuppväxt representationer skildringar intryck taltid talk time talktime gendertimer jämlikhet innehållsanalys feminin feminism könsroll könsroller socialisering socialiseringsmodellen passiv hushållsarbete aktiv media post-feministisk postfemininstisk nyckeltal populärvetenskaplig populärvetenskapligt naturen uppväxt eller gener gener eller upppväxt uppfostran genetik könsskillnader könsuttryck experiment hjärnan plasticitet konstruktivism kultivationsteori kognitiv teori kvantitativ kvantitativa mått kvantitativa metoder stereotyper stereotyp stereotypisk kvinnnor kvinna kön biologiskt kön mått nyckeltal femininitet textanalys filmanalys kuvad underkastad submissiv oberoende pappas flicka patriarkat patriarkisk patriarkalt godkännande manlig maskulin kön genus äktenskap kärlek vid första ögonkastet saga sagor bröderna Grimm film Mulan Pocahontas Snövit och de sju dvärgarna Askungen Törnrosa Den lilla Sjöjungfrun Skönheten och Odjuret Aladdin Trassel Modig Frost Prinsessan och Grodan Merida förhållanden sann kärlek Grimm matriark matriarkisk patriarkalt godkännande matriarkalt godkännande bedöma betygsätta mått mäta ond styvmor binära kön könsidentitet könsidentiteter animation Smurfan starka kvinnor starka flickor positivistisk positivism filmvetenskap filmstudier antagonism protagonist hjältinna kodning kultivationseffekten socialiseringseffekten socialisationseffekten kodad innehållsanalys förenklade mått kognitiv teori konnotationer konnotera feministisk forskning könsbalans mediastudier mediestudier massmedia social media bilder av kvinnor kvinnan som bild images of women woman as image reading interpretation modern day fairy tales tolkning
