Abstract:

Background: Globally, breast cancer is one of the most common cancer among females of age group 15-40 years. India is also one of the leading countries of breast cancer. It is found that incidence rate of breast cancer is higher in less developing countries in comparison to development country. In 2018, worldwide, nearly 2 million new breast cancer cases were diagnosed. Early diagnosis of breast cancer can increase the chance of early case detection and favourable outcomes, resulting in improved survival rates and quality of life of women and is therefore important public health strategy at all settings [2]. Several studies suggests that even though the incidence and mortality of breast cancer have been on the increase, the knowledge and awareness regarding the breast cancer is low among college students. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess knowledge and awareness among college students about breast cancers in Lucknow Materials & Methods: Descriptive research design was selected for this study. Target population includes the female students studying in the selected colleges of Lucknow. 87 female students were selected through non-probability, purposive sampling techniques. Data was gathered using a self-administered semi structured questionnaire. Results: Overall results of this study show that, 34 (39.08%) female students had adequate knowledge, 49 (56.32%) female students had moderately inadequate knowledge, and 04 (4.59%) female students had inadequate knowledge. Conclusion: Findings of this study revealed that knowledge of breast cancer among female college students was inadequate.

Abstract:

There is limited Irish research which focuses on rates of physical activity and the correlates of physical activity among college students, typically aged 18–22 (Clán Survey, 2003). A questionnaire examining participation rates in and correlates of physical activity was administered to a representative sample of 532 students in colleges within the Republic of Ireland. Key correlates of physical activity were further explored using interviews ( n = 16) of Irish coaches/college sport personnel and college students. A significantly higher percentage of males reported participation in organized physical activity/sport (male = 57.8%, female = 27.5%; p ≤ .001), whereas females were more likely to participate in unorganized physical activity (female = 74%, male = 56.8%; p ≤ .001). Intrinsic motivational factors (e.g., fun/ enjoyment, fitness, fondness of competition, interest) were found to be primary positive correlates of physical activity/sport for both males and females. Barriers to physical activity were elements associated with college life (e.g., lack of time, coursework) as well as lack of interest. Significant multivariate effects were obtained for gender and the correlates leading to participation in organized and unorganized physical activity/sport. Univariate analysis revealed that psychological and social correlates were significantly related to engagement in organized physical activity/sport among gender and more pronounced among males. However, only psychological correlates were significantly associated to participation in unorganized physical activity among gender and more prevalent among females. Cognizance of intrinsic influences should be taken when developing physical activity promotional strategies with Irish college students. Among Irish females, emphasis should be placed on the development of unorganized noncompetitive physical activity.

Abstract:

Background and Purpose: Cyber bullying is often assumed to only occur in grades K-12, yet reports of such behaviors on college campuses and in the workplace are increasing. The U.S. Federal Government has recently called for policy development regarding cyber bullying to occur in higher education. This study explored perceptions of frequency and severity of cyber bullying among college students. Consequences of cyber bullying and the need for resources on college campuses were also explored. Methods: In 2011, a total of 18 undergraduate women participated in three focus groups, each lasting approximately 75 minutes. Results: Emergent themes revealed participants do not consider cyber bullying to be a significant issue currently, but likely will increase in prevalence among the college population. Many participants were familiar with the cyber bullying term but were unaware of its definition, nor could they provide examples. Further, the majority of participants were unaware of resources for victims of cyber bullying. Implications: Findings from this study reveal the need for educational programs geared toward college students about the meaning and consequences of cyber bullying. Further, resources for victims of cyber bullying should be made available on college campuses.

Abstract:

Purpose Minority female students are increasingly faced with issues such as financial instability, work-family imbalance, and few growth opportunities in their careers. Within the context of community colleges, the presence of minority female administrators may serve as a venue for the empowerment and attainment of academic and professional goals for minority female students through administrators’ mentoring practices. The purpose of this paper is to explore the lived experience of community college minority female administrators in their role as informal mentors to community college minority female students. Design/methodology/approach The author used a qualitative phenomenological approach to explore community college minority female administrators’ experiences as mentors of female minority students. Mullen’s (2009) alternative mentoring model guided the study as well as a feminist lens. The purposive sample included six minority female administrators from two Florida community colleges, with individual interviews based on 18 open-ended questions. Data were analyzed with Atlas.ti™ qualitative software. Findings The findings uncovered four common themes and seven subthemes regarding the experience of informal mentoring as a minority female administrator: facilitating empowerment with two subthemes – modeling and coaching; administrator-student relationship with three subthemes – encouragement, life experiences, and past mentors; personal growth; and formalized mentoring with two subthemes – create a support system and access to information. Research limitations/implications In any study, phenomenological or otherwise, the researcher’s biases may cloud the data analysis process, and the researcher may code the data incorrectly or leave out crucial information during the transcription of the interview. It was essential for the author to understand the concept of epochè to bracket the author’s own experiences as a minority female (Bloomberg and Volpe, 2012). The purposeful sample was small and only focused on one region in the US, and the study’s findings may not be transferable to other contexts. Originality/value Minority female administrators’ experiences mentoring minority female students have not been comprehensively explored in the scholarly realm; hence, their mentoring journey is unknown. The study sought to shatter that silence and create a dialogue that will hopefully continue in the field of mentoring.

Abstract:

Gifted students’ performance on a Chilean university admission test, Prueba de Selección Universitaria (PSU), was investigated in this study. Sixty-six students participating in an enrichment-based university program for gifted youth were selected. The sample included both male and female gifted adolescents who studied in public and voucher (charter) high schools. The purpose was to investigate which combination of factors was the best predictor of students’ scores and the differences between male and female students’ performance. Only intelligence, as measured by the Raven Standard Progressive Matrices test, correlated with the scores on the PSU. Males from voucher schools outperformed females on the PSU. Providing academic support and adequate preparation has been discussed as an important element for college readiness, successful transition to college, and to diminish the existing performance gap between students from different types of schools in Chile.

Abstract:

In this multiyear, statewide investigation, the extent to which enrollment rates of male and female, part-time, first-time-in-college students enrolled in Texas community colleges differed from the 2003-2004 academic year to the 2018-2019 academic year was determined. From the 2003-2004 academic year to the 2011-2012 academic year, statistically significant differences were identified in the enrollment rates of both male and female, part-time, first-time-in-college students. Cohen’s d effect sizes, calculated for both male and female, part-time students, were small (0.22). Enrollment rates for male and female, part-time, first-time-in-college students from the 2011-2012 academic year to the 2018-2019 academic year and from the 2003-2004 academic year to the 2018-2019 academic year were similar. Enrollment rates for male and female, part-time, first-time-in-college students enrolled in Texas community colleges remained consistently around 45% and 55%, respectively, during the 16 academic year span. Recommendations for future research as well as implications for policy were discussed.

Abstract:

College students’ physical activity and depression are important factors that can predict physical and psychological health after middle age. In particular, it is necessary to approach these two variables with interest in female college students who show less physical activity and a higher tendency to depression than male students, especially at a time when physical activity is reduced due to COVID-19. The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between differences in depression according to the amount of physical activity before and after the COVID-19 pandemic and variables for female college students. A total of 467 students attending colleges in two cities participated in the study. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire and Beck Depression Inventory were used to assess physical activity and depression, respectively. For the analysis, descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Pearson’s correlation analysis were conducted. The results are as follows: first, the total physical activity of female college students decreased, and depression increased due to COVID-19. Second, depression levels differed among female college students according to their level of physical activity before and after the pandemic. Finally, a negative correlation was found between the amount of physical activity and the level of depression among female college students. In conclusion, the amount of physical activity and depression of female college students were judged to be affected by the COVID-19 outbreak, and thereafter, experimental studies to reduce depression in female college students by increasing physical activity are required.

Abstract:

This study aimed to investigate the socioeconomic and nutritional factors associated with disordered eating among Brazilian female college students (n = 2,489). Prevalence ratios of risk factors were calculated using Poisson regression models with robust variance based on responses to selected questions from the Eating Attitude Test and Disordered Eating Attitude Scale. It was found that 40.7% of students were dieting, 35.6% were using diet or compensatory methods, 23.9% skipping meals, 12.6% not eating or just drinking liquids, and 3.3%, vomiting to lose weight. A positive association was found between not eating or just drinking liquids and skipping meals and nutritional status after adjustment for age and region. A positive association was found between compensatory methods and dieting and education level of the head of the family. Disordered eating behaviors were frequent, and not eating and skipping meals were more prevalent among overweight/obese students; compensatory methods and dieting were less prevalent among students from families whose head had up to only four years of education. Prevention strategies and food education are necessary in order to decrease the prevalence of these behaviors.

Abstract:

This study investigated the attitudes of body-tanning behaviors: suntanning, tanning bed, tanning spray, and sunless tanning product use. Data collected from 208 female college students ( M age=19.8 yr., SD = 2.0; M weight = 63.3 kg, SD = 2.0; M height = 165.9cm, SD = 8.1) online. The questionnaire comprised four constructs: appearance-based, health-based, and emotion-based tanning attitudes, and body-tanning behaviors. Both appearance-based and emotion-based pro-tanning attitudes were associated with significantly higher body-tanning behaviors. However, health-based pro-tanning attitudes did not significantly affect body-tanning behaviors. The results from both UV- and non-UV exposure-related tanning behaviors provide future intervention strategies, such as establishing a positive body image without a tan and identifying negative emotional consequences as a result of tanning.

Abstract:

Introduction: These vital components of cognitive, behavioural, and emotional well-being states to mental health. Public universities mostly stress on students because of financial constraints (Shafiq S, & et al., 2020). The purpose of this investigation was to find out the gender differences on mental health (MH) in the college students. Method: 130 participants perusing their degree courses in Arts in various colleges of Cuttack and Bhubaneswar of Odisha, India. To find out the significance mean variance among the groups t-test was considered. Result and Discussion: The analysing data reveals that the Positive self-evaluation (P>0.05), perception of reality (P>0.05), integration of personality (P<0.05), autonomy (P<0.05), oriented attitude (P<0.05), and environmental mastery (P<0.05). The result revealed that male students are differing from female college students such as integration of personality, autonomy, group oriented attitude and environmental mastery. However, in case of positive self-evaluation and perception of reality the result is found to be insignificant. Conclusion: It is concluded that the male college students are not differing from female college students with regard to positive self-evaluation (PSE) and perception of reality (PSE). Furthermore, concluded that the male college students are differing from female college students such as; integration of personality (IP), Autonomy dimension of MH, group oriented attitude and case of environmental mastery.

Abstract:

Identifying the level of suggestibility and emotional thinking among university students is the key aim of this research, as well as identifying the significance of differences according to gender (males - females), and the correlation between the two variables. In order to verify this, the researchers adopted the measure of suggestibility prepared by "Roman Kotov" (2004), Arabized by (Abdul Rahman 2014), where the number of its final paragraphs reached (79) paragraphs, and adopted the scale of emotional thinking prepared by Abdullah 2017). The scale consisted of (27) final paragraphs, and their psychometric characteristics were ascertained, where the two tools were applied to a sample of (160) male and female students who were selected in a stratified random method from four colleges at the University of Baghdad: (College of Political Science and College of Education / Ibn Rushd, College of Engineering, and College of Science), for the academic year 2019-2020. The results of the research showed the following: University students do not have a tendency to suggestibility. There are no differences between (males and females) in suggestibility. University students have emotional thinking. There are no differences between (male and female) in emotional thinking. There is no correlation between suggestibility and emotional thinking among university students.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Objective: To explore the effects of aerobic exercise on the metabolism and physical health of obese college students. Methods: 219 obese college students of different stages were selected by stratified group sampling according to colleges and grades. The effects on physical indices of obese female college students were analyzed by the two-factor variation method after 32 weeks of aerobic exercise training. Results: The experimental group and the control group were significantly improved, and long-term aerobic prescription training was more effective than special education in changing the physical health of obese female college students. After 32 weeks of extreme weight loss training, in the statistical process of 219 valid data, 188 people were found to have lost weight, with the most significant drop reaching 8 kg; BMI decreased in 193 people, and body fat content decreased in 172 people. After 12 weeks of aerobic exercise, the level of cardiopulmonary function of female college students increased. The aerobic exercise prescription designed by the experiment can improve upper and lower limb strength, body flexibility, abdominal muscle strength, and lung function of female college students, which cannot be achieved by diet control alone. Conclusion: Aerobic exercise prescription is an effective means to improve the effect of cardiopulmonary exercise on female college students, and can stimulate the students’ enthusiasm and initiative to exercise independently.

Abstract:

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the self-efficacy, depression, and health promotion behaviors of nursing and non-nursing female college students, and to develop a program to improve the health promotion behaviors of female college students. Methods: One hundred sixty-six females (84 nursing, 82 non-nursing) college students participated in the study. Data collection was conducted between November 20 and December 8, 2017. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, ${chi}^2$ test, ANCOVA, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and stepwise multiple regression analysis with the SPSS/WIN 22.0. Results: The results of health promotion behaviors of the nursing college students were higher than non-nursing college students (F=7.14, p=.008). Both nursing and non-nursing college students showed a positive correlation between health promotion behaviors and self-efficacy, and there was a negative correlation between health promotion behaviors and depression. Self-efficacy was the most influential factor in health promotion behaviors for both nursing and non-nursing female college students. Conclusion: In order to improve the health promotion behaviors of female college students, it is necessary to educate individuals to help them improve their self-efficacy and be able to maintain healthy lifestyles by perceiving and managing their own health conditions.

Abstract:

This study was designed to measure differences between Yugoslavian and US college students in sex-role orientation. It was hypothesized that there would be significant differences in the number of Yugoslavian and US students classified as androgynous, masculine, feminine, and undifferentiated. 52 male and 52 female students at the University of Belgrade, and 43 male and 63 female students from San Francisco Bay Area colleges and universities completed the Bern Sex-role Inventory. Analysis supported the hypothesis. Significantly more US males and females than their Yugoslavian peers were classified as androgynous. Significantly more Yugoslavian male and female students than US students were classified as undifferentiated. Significantly more US female than Yugoslavian female students were classified as masculine, and significantly more Yugoslavian female than US female students were classified as feminine. The results were discussed in terms of differences in the political, sociocultural, and economic conditions in the two countries.

Abstract:

Institutional characteristics may help mitigate trauma associated with sexual assault. This study examines associations between resources on college campuses for sexual violence prevention and the emotional well-being of female students who have experienced sexual assault. There were 495 female college students who have experienced sexual assault who provided survey data in 2010–2011. Sexual violence resource data from 28 college campuses were combined with student survey data in multilevel analysis. Dependent variables include diagnosis with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and PTSD, and models adjust for covariates and clustering of students within colleges. Participants attending colleges with more sexual violence resources had lower rates of mental health conditions than those attending colleges with fewer resources. Colleges are encouraged to expand their array of sexual violence resources to create a supportive environment for victims of sexual assault and to connect affected students with appropriate services.

Abstract:

This exploratory study describes comparisons of high-school and college men and women regarding attitudes toward the “importance” of humor in their lives. 45 high-school students and 33 college students volunteered to complete Vitulli's Humor Rating Scale. This Likert-type scale has 12 items dealing with varying opinions regarding the importance of humor for men and women. Four subscales measured general humor appreciation, male-oriented humor, female-oriented humor, and differentiation of humor by sex, respectively. Results from a 2 × 2 × 4 factorial (mixed) design yielded a significant difference between high-school and college groups. Scheffé tests of multiple comparisons gave significant differences between high-school males and college males regarding male-oriented humor and between high-school males and high-school females regarding male-oriented humor. There were no significant differences between college males and college females regarding male- or female-oriented humor. These data are explained in terms of “androgynous” social conditioning.

Abstract:

Limited research exists on perceptions of virginity and oral sex among female college students. The majority of research studies on female college students focus on virginity related to participation in only vaginal sex. This research is part of a larger qualitative descriptive study which explored female college students’ perceptions about the factors which influenced their participation in oral sex. Sixteen female college students ranging from 18 to 24 years of age participated in semi-structured interviews. Primary data included verbatim transcripts, demographic data and sexual health questionnaires. All participants had engaged in oral sex. Defining virginity emerged as a main theme from the thematic data analysis. Overall findings provide insight about views regarding oral sex and virginity status among college aged women.

Abstract:

Background: Many factors are thought to potentially trigger migraines, among which sleep disturbances are one of the most frequently reported. Both sleep disorders and migraines affect more women than men. This study aims to analyze sleep alterations in young adult women with migraines and how they are related to the presence, frequency, intensity, and disability of migraines in this population. Methods: Fifty-one female university students with physician-diagnosed migraines and 55 healthy female university students completed surveys assessing demographic information and frequency, intensity, and disability of migraines and sleep quality variables. Results: No differences in sleep quality were found between migraine subjects and healthy women (p = 0.815), but women with migraines presented higher daytime somnolence (p = 0.010), greater sleep disruptions (p = 0.002), and decreased sleep adequacy (p = 0.019). The presence of a migraine was significantly related to daytime somnolence (p = 0.003) and sleep disruptions (p = 0.021). Migraine-related disability was associated with sleep disruptions (p = 0.002), snoring (p = 0.016), and a decreased quantity of sleep (p = 0.040). Migraine frequency was related to sleep disturbance (p = 0.003) and snoring (p < 0.001). The intensity of migraines was associated with sleep disruptions (p = 0.004). Conclusions: Our results suggest a relationship between migraines and sleep alterations.

Abstract:

Az életmód (fokozott kalóriabevitel, fizikai inaktivitás) jelentős szerepet játszik a súlyfelesleg kialakulásában. Az evési magatartás feltárása és megértése elősegíti a megfelelő táplálkozási prevenciós programok kidolgozását az elhízás világjárványának kontextusában. Vizsgálatunk célja az evési magatartás három aspektusának (kognitív korlátozás, kontrollálatlan evés, érzelmi evés) és korrelátumainak (tápláltsági állapot, ételpreferencia, fizikai aktivitás, szorongás, testképpel való elégedetlenség) felmérése volt főiskolai hallgatónők (n = 295) körében. Alkalmazott mérőeszközök: Háromfaktoros Evési Kérdőív (TFEQ-R21), Testi Attitűdök Tesztje, Vonásszorongás skála, Testgyakorlás: A változás stádiumai (rövidített forma), valamint a különböző étel- és italfajták fogyasztási gyakoriságára vonatkozó kérdéssor. Az eredmények szerint a testtömeg-index növekedése az evés tudatos korlátozására való törekvés fokozódásával jár együtt. E kapcsolatban a test méretével való elégedetlenség jelentős közvetítő szerepet játszik. A testsúly kontrollálására irányuló evési magatartás kapcsolatot mutat az egészségmagatartás egy további aspektusával, a fizikai aktivitással is. A rendszeres testedzést végzők szignifikánsan magasabb pontszámot érnek el a kognitív korlátozás skálán, mint az e tekintetben inaktívnak mondhatók. A vonásszorongás pozitív irányú kapcsolatot mutat a maladaptív evési magatartásokkal, úgymint a kontrollálatlan, illetve az érzelmi evéssel. Az érzelmi evés részleges közvetítő szerepet játszik a vonásszorongás és a kontrollálatlan evés közötti kapcsolat alakulásában. A különböző evési magatartások és egyes ételek preferenciái csak gyenge kapcsolatot mutatnak, az összefüggések azonban a várt iránynak megfelelően alakulnak: a kognitív korlátozás az energiában gazdag ételek kerülésével, a kontrollálatlan evés és az érzelmi evés viszont ezzel ellentétben az energiadús ételek preferenciájával jár együtt. Az evési magatartás korrelátumainak megértése hozzájárul az egészségtudatos táplálkozást és a testsúlyrendezést elősegítő programok kidolgozásához.
