Abstract:
This study verified the effect of the older adults’ self-efficacy on acceptance of care robots according to the gender groups. This study used the data of the ’2022 Korea Older Adults Technology Acceptance Panel Survey’ conducted by the Department of Gerontology, Kyung Hee University, and multiple regression analysis was conducted by the all and gender groups on 506 older adults (203 males, 276 females) aged 60 or older nationwide. STATA 17.0 statistical program was used for analysis. As a result of the analysis by gender, in the case of men, the higher the technology self-efficacy and general self-efficacy, the higher the acceptance of care robot. In women, it was found that the higher the technology self-efficacy, the higher the education level and household income, and the better the Activities of Daily Living, the higher the acceptance of care robot. This study divided self-efficacy into general self-efficacy and technical self-efficacy and verified the impact of the two self-efficacy on the acceptance of care robots. This study has academic implications in that it divided self-efficacy into general self-efficacy and technical self-efficacy and verified the impact of the two self-efficacy on the acceptance of care robots. In addition, this study has practical implications in that it suggests separate action plans to increase the acceptance of care robots depending on the gender group of the older adults.

Abstract:
This study aims to examine the relationship between university students’ views of distance education system and their computer self-efficacy in terms of some variables using Information Systems Success Model (ISSM) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The study is important since the studies on the distance education system made with Unified Learning Style Model (ULSM) are limited in the COVID-19 pandemic period when distance education has become widespread. The views of university students on distance education and computer self-efficacy were examined in the study in accordance with the causal-comparative design, taking into account the variables of gender, year of study and academic achievement. Then, the correlation between the Technology Acceptance Model, participants’ achievement levels and computer self-efficacy was explained. 895 students attending Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Applied Sciences undergraduate program participated in the study. While gathering data, previously tested Technology Acceptance and Information Systems Success Model Integration and Computer Self-efficacy scales were used by combining the components from both models.

Abstract:
Objectives The purpose of this study is to explore the mediating effect of self-acceptance in the relationship between the psychological control of parents and the level of career decision in college students. Methods For this study, 411 copies of data collected from university students in five regions through a self-report questionnaire were analyzed using statistical programs PASW Statistics 18.0 and AMOS 18.0. The specific procedure to achieve the purpose of this study is: first, the level of each variable was identified through frequency analysis, and then whether there was a significant difference in each variable according to general characteristics was identified through t-test and ANOVA verification. Second, after conducting the correlation analysis with this variable, a partial mediation model and a full mediation model were established, and the level of the mediation effect was identified through the X2 test. Third, the goodness of fit of the model and the path coefficient between variables were calculated through the AMOS program, and the Sobel-test was conducted to verify the mediating effect. Results The results of the analysis are as follows. First, the level of parents' psychological control, self-acceptance, and career decision showed significant differences according to gender, major, and university type. The level of female students and junior college students was high in all three variables, and the level of parents' psychological control toward science students was high, but the level of self-acceptance and career decision was higher in liberal arts students. Also, the level of self-acceptance and career decision of students living separately from their parents was the lowest, and the highest level of career decision in the first grade decreased as it progressed from the second grade to the third grade, and then increased again in the fourth grade. Second, Parents' psychological control had a negative effect on the level of self-acceptance and career decision, and the level of self-acceptance had a positive effect on the level of career decision. Third, for college students, self-acceptance showed a complete mediating effect in the relationship between parents' psychological control and career decision level. Conclusions The results of this study are significant in providing extensive basic data that can effectively improve the career decision level of college students. Therefore, it will be able to contribute to finding and presenting the direction of career education, guidance, and career counseling programs for college students.

Abstract:
We report the secondary outcomes and longevity of efficacy from a randomized controlled trial that evaluated a novel sexual assault resistance program designed for first-year women university students. Participants ( N = 893) were randomly assigned to receive the Enhanced Assess, Acknowledge, Act (EAAA) program or a selection of brochures (control). Perception of personal risk, self-defense self-efficacy, and rape myth acceptance was assessed at baseline; 1-week postintervention; and 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24-month postrandomization. Risk detection was assessed at 1 week, 6 months, and 12 months. Sexual assault experience and knowledge of effective resistance strategies were assessed at all follow-ups. The EAAA program produced significant increases in women’s perception of personal risk, self-defense self-efficacy, and knowledge of effective (forceful verbal and physical) resistance strategies; the program also produced decreases in general rape myth acceptance and woman blaming over the entire 24-month follow-up period. Risk detection was significantly improved for the intervention group at post-test. The program significantly reduced the risk of completed and attempted rape, attempted coercion, and nonconsensual sexual contact over the entire follow-up period, yielding reductions between 30% and 64% at 2 years. The EAAA program produces long-lasting changes in secondary outcomes and in the incidence of sexual assault experienced by women students. Universities can reduce the harm and the negative health consequences that young women experience as a result of campus sexual assault by implementing this program.

Abstract:
Background Sexual and gender minority young adults have a high prevalence of smoking and unique barriers to accessing tobacco treatment. Objective To address these challenges as well as their preferences for sexual and gender minority–targeted interventions and digital programs, we developed and evaluated the acceptability, preliminary efficacy, and impact on theory-based change processes of an acceptance and commitment therapy–based digital program called Empowered, Queer, Quitting, and Living (EQQUAL). Methods Participants (n=22) of a single-arm trial conducted to evaluate the program were young adults, age 18 to 30 years, who self-identified as sexual and gender minority individuals and smoked at least one cigarette per day. All participants received access to the EQQUAL program. Participants completed web-based surveys at baseline and at a follow-up 2 months after enrollment. We verified self-reported smoking abstinence with biochemical testing; missing data were counted as smoking or using tobacco. Results For young adults who logged in at least once (n=18), the mean number of log-ins was 5.5 (SD 3.6), mean number of sessions completed was 3.1 (SD 2.6), and 39% (7/18) completed all 6 sessions. Overall, 93% of participants (14/15) were satisfied with the EQQUAL program, 100% (15/15) found it easy to use, and 100% (15/15) said it helped them be clearer about how to quit. Abstinence from smoking or using tobacco was confirmed with biochemical testing for 23% of participants (5/22). Both quantitative and qualitative results suggested a positive overall response to the avatar guide, with areas for future improvement largely centered on the avatar’s appearance and movements. Conclusions Treatment acceptability of EQQUAL was very promising. The rate of abstinence, which was biochemically confirmed, was 3 times higher than that of the only other digital program to date that has targeted sexual and gender minority young adults and 6 to 13 times higher than those of nontargeted digital smoking interventions among sexual and gender minority young adults. Planned improvements for the next iteration of the program include making the avatar’s movements more natural; offering multiple avatar guides with different on characteristics such as race, ethnicity, and gender identity from which to choose; and providing a support forum for users to connect anonymously with peers.

Abstract:
Despite efforts to prevent physical teen dating violence, it remains a major public health issue with multiple negative consequences. This study aims to investigate gender differences in the relationships between exposure to interparental violence (mother-to-father violence, father-to-mother violence), acceptance of dating violence (perpetrated by boys, perpetrated by girls), and self-efficacy to disclose teen dating violence. Data were drawn from Waves 1 and 2 of the Quebec Youth Romantic Relationships Project, conducted with a representative sample of Quebec high school students. Analyses were conducted on a subsample of 2,564 teenagers who had been in a dating relationship in the past 6 months (63.8% girls, mean age of 15.3 years). Path analyses were conducted to investigate the links among exposure to interparental violence, acceptance of violence, self-efficacy to disclose teen dating violence (measured at Wave 1), and physical teen dating violence (measured at Wave 2). General exposure to interparental violence was linked, through acceptance of girl-perpetrated violence, to victimization among both genders and to girls’ perpetration of physical teen dating violence. No significant difference was identified in the impact of the gender of the perpetrating parent when considering exposure to interparental violence. Self-efficacy to disclose personal experiences of violence was not linked to exposure to interparental violence or to experiences of physical teen dating violence. The findings support the intergenerational transmission of violence. Moreover, the findings underline the importance of targeting acceptance of violence, especially girl-perpetrated violence, in prevention programs and of intervening with children and adolescents who have witnessed interparental violence.

Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the mediating role of body image coping strategies in the relationship between positive body image and wellbeing. Three hundred and seventy-two women and three hundred and seventy-seven men completed a questionnaire assessing body appreciation, body appreciation functionality, body compassion, body image coping strategies (appearance fixing, avoidance, positive rational acceptance), self-acceptance and overall psychological wellbeing. Path analysis showed that avoidance significantly mediated the relationship between body appreciation and overall psychological wellbeing among both women and men; its mediating role was confirmed for men’s but not for women’s self-acceptance. Positive rational acceptance was a significant mediator of the relationship between body compassion and both psychological wellbeing and self-acceptance among men but not among women. These findings show that higher body appreciation is associated with a lower tendency to avoid appearance-related cognitions or thoughts that are interpreted as threatening, with an indirect effect on women’s and men’s psychological wellbeing. Analogously, but only for men, body compassion is associated with mental activities and self-care behaviors that foster rational self-talk and the acceptance of one’s experiences, which, in turn, are linked to higher wellbeing. These findings can help to plan programs aimed at fostering individuals’ wellbeing by focusing on their positive body image considering gender differences.

Abstract:
Background: Well-being is increasingly emerging as an important determinant of teacher effectiveness. Aim and objective: To assess the predictors of psychological well-being in Southern India. Settings and design: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 460 high school teachers from government and private schools in Udupi district. Methods and materials: Ryff’s psychological well-being scale (1989) was used. Statistical analysis used: Predictors were identified using logistic regression and p<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant Results: Autonomy, personal growth, positive relations, purpose in life and self-acceptance emerged as predictors of psychological well-being. Age predicted the subdomain of autonomy; number and age of children predicted environmental mastery; gender, monthly income and travelling time of teachers predicted the subdomain of self-acceptance among teachers. Conclusion: Teachers are an important resource whose psychological well-being has not received the attention it is due. An intervention program designed to fit their felt needs may be a step in the right direction.

Abstract:
Abstract This study examined the interaction effect of subjective health and attitude about aging on gerontechnology acceptance among Korean older adults. The sample was 310 Korean older adults aged 65 and above without cognitive impairment who completed an online survey. The dependent variable was the attitude about gerontechnology, especially an exoskeleton robot for exercise. The independent variable was subjective health measured by the questions about self-reported health conditions. The moderating variable was the attitude about aging, which was measured by asking how much they feel less useful as they age. Covariates were age, gender, education level, employment status, income, and marital status. The results from the regression analyses using PROCESS macro and bootstrapping showed that the interaction effect of subjective health and attitude about aging is significant for gerontechnology acceptance; when older adults consider themselves less useful as they age, they tend to have positive attitudes about gerontechnology despite their subjective health. However, of those who consider that they are not less useful as they age, they tend to have positive attitudes about gerontechnology only when they consider themselves unhealthy. Thus, they tend to have negative attitudes about gerontechnology when they consider themselves healthy and useful. The findings imply that gerontechnology-based exercise programs or interventions could be welcomed by those who consider themselves unhealthy and think they are useless as they age. Also, the findings suggest that when applying an intervention program using gerontechnology, health status and self-assessment of aging should be considered in advance.

Abstract:
As one of the strategies to prevent and reduce the spread of COVID-19 since January 2021, the Indonesian Government has implemented a COVID-19 vaccination program. When this research was carried out in the first semester of 2022, the achievement of COVID-19 vaccination target was not yet reach the expected target due to many people were afraid and refused to be vaccinated. The research aims to determine the acceptance and practice of COVID-19 vaccination in rural communities located in Banyumas Regency, Central Java in 2022. This was a cross-sectional study based on electronic survey data distributed to residents (aged ≥ 15 years) of Tunjung Village, Jatilawang Sub-district between May 27, 1 - June 10, 2022. The study sample size was 211 respondents using the quota sampling technique. We used the Health Belief Model (HBM) as the theoretical framework. The research results show that the majority (69%) of respondents stated that they received the COVID-19 vaccination and around 79.6% of those who received it had received the COVID-19 vaccination. Chi-square statistical analysis shows that the variables gender, education, knowledge about COVID-19, knowledge about COVID-19 vaccination, perceived severity of COVID-19, perceived benefits of COVID-19 vaccination, and perceived self-efficacy towards COVID-19 vaccination are related. significantly impact acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination. Perception of self-efficacy towards COVID-19 vaccination is the strongest driving factor for acceptance (POR: 5.45). In the multivariate test, the most dominant variable influencing vaccine acceptance was the variable perception of self-efficacy towards vaccination after controlling for the knowledge variable. A significant relationship was obtained between receipt of COVID-19 vaccination and COVID-19 vaccination practices. It was concluded that acceptance of COVID-19 vaccination is closely related to the level of knowledge and attitudes towards COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccination, and the higher acceptance encourages the practice of carrying out COVID-19 vaccination. It is recommended that to increase acceptance and practice of Covid vaccination it is necessary to increase the population's knowledge regarding COVID-19 and the COVID-19 vaccine by increasing education and promotion of the COVID-19 vaccination program through electronic media, especially television and social media.

Abstract:
Anxiety is a common mental health condition that can be severely debilitating. Psychological treatment with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can avert the onset of anxiety disorders and the high cost of impairment. However, many people do not, or cannot, receive face to face psychological treatment. Barriers can include geographic location, lack of money, social stigma, and shortage of mental health professionals. To help overcome such barriers, web-based interventions that deliver mental health information and skill training online have been developed in recent years. However, most interventions to date have been based on Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy with less known about alternate therapy models. The present research first conducted a systematic review on the use of online ACT interventions for anxiety treatment. Significant reductions on anxiety measures were reported across most studies. However, there were no online ACT programs developed for the Australian population. An open trial pilot study on the efficacy and usability of a new Australian developed online ACT program for anxiety symptoms called ‘FearLess’ was then conducted. Forty young Australian adults (aged 18-25) completed the program with no therapist guidance over two weeks. Measures of system usability were taken alongside self-rated levels of depression, anxiety, stress and psychological flexibility at pre-test, post-test and 2-week follow-up. System usability was rated above average and significant improvements were found on all mental health measures from pre-test to follow-up, except for stress. These results warrant further scrutiny in a clinical randomised controlled trial on the intervention.

Abstract:
Diabetes has quickly become an epidemic in the United States and affects all genders and races. Some ethnic groups are at greater risk for being diagnosed and face devastating health consequences due to poor diabetes self-management. Diabetes self-management education (DSME) is considered to be a positive step toward patient self-efficacy and diabetes management. The benefits of diabetes self-management education can only be realized if patients diagnosed with diabetes not only enroll, but complete the program. The purpose of this research study was to investigate the association between race and gender and dropout rates among participants enrolled in a DSME program. Archival data from a DSME were collected for 352 participants enrolled in the program. A multiple logistic regression was used to analyze whether independent variables of race and gender were predictors of dropout rates. Chi-square was used to explore if there was an association between race and gender and drop-out rates. Results revealed that there was no statistically significant association between race and gender and dropout rates from participants in a DSME program. Positive implications for social change include exploring the reasons participants choose to drop-out of a DSME program and potentially identify those at risk for droppoing out due to challenges and barriers.

Abstract:
This study was designed to determine whether participation in an eight hour training program based on Adlerian theoretical principles would influence managerial attitudes. The effects of the training curriculum on three attitudinal dimensions were investigated: leadership style, acceptance of self and others and level of dogmatism. It was hypothesized that Adlerian training would increase the development of managerial human relations competence. Eighty-one managers participated in the study. The experimental group, comprised of 40 line managers, received eight hours of Adlerian training conducted in two one-half day sessions. The training was both didactic and experiential in content and contained modules on lifestyles/management styles, conflict resolution, effective communication strategies and understanding personality dynamics. The control group, comprised of 41 managers, did not receive training but participated in the pre-testing and post-testing process. Managers completed The Leadership Opinion Questionnaire, The Acceptance of Self and Others Questionnaire, and The Rokeach Dogmatism Scale, prior to the first training session and again two weeks after the final training session. A one-way analysis of covariance revealed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups on both the Consideration and Structure dimensions of the Leadership Opinion Questionnaire. This suggests that managers in the experimental group demonstrated a more participative and less authoritarian management style two weeks after training was completed. No significant differences were found between the two groups on managers' level of dogmatism or acceptance of self and others.

Abstract:
This study investigated levels of general, academic, and social self-concept in junior high school children. The effects of Gender, IQ and achievement level, as well as type of program were also considered in relation to self-concept.
Subjects were 85 students in grades 7 and 8 attending a large comprehensive high school, 40 of whom participated in a specialized Talented and Gifted (TAG) program. The remaining 45 were drawn from the regular school population and constituted a comparison group. Measurements included the Piers-Harris Childrens' Self-Concept scale and the Otis-Lennon Mental Ability Test.
Results indicated no significant differences between groups on measures of general or social self-concept. On measures of academic self-concept, TAG students scored significantly higher than students from the regular program. With regard to gender effects, no significant differences emerged between males and females on measures of self-concept. Finally, no significant differences were determined on measures of self-concept between TAG participants scoring higher on measures of IQ and achievement and those scoring lower. Educational implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
AbstractLesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) parents’ rights were openly debated around marriage legislation movements. Religious schools can deny their families services. This chapter investigates 208 LGBTQ+ parents’ euphorias in their children’s schools. Under a third of them were euphoric and mostly always or often; gay or lesbian parents were more likely to experience euphorias and parents with disabilities were less likely. Institutional Inclusion, Category Validation, Pride Generativity, and Community Connection euphorias dominated. Most parents reported no changes to their euphorias. Change-trends included: (1) increased expectation for Institutional Inclusion euphoria; (2) steady growth in (Self-) Acceptance euphoria; (3) relationships and relationship views as a moderating factor; (4) learning and teaching euphorias; and (5) time as an enabling factor. Parent euphorias had stable and revolutionary qualities.

Abstract This chapter explores the travel experiences of a Black woman who is both tourist and researcher. Navigating the cross-cultural research terrain on the continent of Africa, she encounters identity crises related to the interactions of gender, race, and nationality, accompanied by the challenges of acceptance and belonging often encountered in diaspora travellers. The chapter offers insights on opportunities to engage not only Africana women but also Africana communities of colour broadly. Further, it provides recommendations on the use of more culturally sensitive methodologies when working with these persons.

Abstract:
AbstractThe fundamental utility of rage as a motivator for early AIDS activists is contrasted with the double silencing marking ethnomusicology’s relationship to same-sex desire: it is virtually non-existent in the discipline’s literature, and the erasure has generated no response, enraged or otherwise, within academia. Additionally, two themes animating ensuing discussions are presented. First, the field’s belated acceptance of ‘gender’ as a site of inquiry, overwhelmingly used as a shorthand for ‘studies of/by women’, is revealed as related to the creation of a veneer of ‘diversity’ that functions to keep men/masculinity immune from examination. And second, ethnomusicology’s self-construction as the ethical other to musicology is exposed as resting not on epistemological/methodological desiderata, but an intense homophobic drive to construct a masculine disciplinary identity in contradistinction to musicology’s assumed femininity.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the impact of an educational robotics curriculum to enhance students' self-esteem and self-perception was examined. The intervention employed various activities and educational robotics packages based on the educational robotics curriculum developed by Frederick University Robotics Academy. Forty-one students, 6-13 years old, participated in a summer school program of 8 weeks. The study statistically examined the relationship between the robotics and the development of the aforementioned skills. The results revealed the positive impact and great potential of integrating robotics as a cognitive-learning tool to enhance self-esteem and self-perception of students. Specifically, the intervention minimized gender differences in self-esteem and revealed positive inference in both self-esteem and self-perception, with the last one to have also statistical significant differences. Finally, it revealed positive influences in regards to leaning, friendship, happiness, perception and acceptance of themselves, and expression of their beliefs and opinions.

Abstract:
Gender differences in computer use has been always a topic of research interest. The understanding of the patterns among gender, including beliefs, intention and use behavior of IT/IS would provide us a better picture to the process of design and implementation, which gives support to IT/IS success. However, published works explaining why and how beliefs and attitudes varied between different genders are still scarce, yet the topic was of widespread relevance. We direct our empirical work on user’s beliefs, intention and usage behavior. Gender differences in beliefs would likely make a corresponding impact on the intention to use or not to use computer in the future, and hence, the actual usage pattern. Assumed to be behavioral manifestations of users’ gender differences, we infer these gender differences in the beliefs of computer use from their self-reported intention and usage behavior. Therefore, we aim to explore the factors affecting the intention and usage behavior; and their corresponding strengths in affecting the intention and usage behavior; in order to suggest effective implementation strategies accordingly. The research questions of this empirical study are: 1. What are the emergent constructs that drive the intention and usage behavior of computer use? 2. Do users’ beliefs regarding IT/IS usage differ among genders? 3. To what extent do these effects differ? To address these research questions, we applied technology acceptance model (TAM) to a group of pre-service teachers, and measured their beliefs in using computer to explain the gender differences in their beliefs, intention, and usage of computer. The rest of the article proceeds as follows. The next section starts with a review on gender and technology. The third section explains the model framework TAM. The fourth section describes the instrument construction and validation. The fifth section reports the model testing results. The final section discusses the thrusts of the study and future trends.

Abstract:
This case study focused on teaching self-compassion to adolescents through a mindfulness program. Self-compassion involves being kind towards oneself, understanding that we are all part of common humanity, and mindfulness. This multi-methods study was grounded in integral theory, which examines self-compassion through multiple lenses with both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. The findings indicated that a mindfulness program teaching self-compassion had many benefits to students, including increased mindful awareness and focused attention; emotional awareness and regulation; self-awareness, self-kindness, and self-acceptance; resiliency and growth mindset; compassion, acceptance, and forgiveness for others; and a belief it could reduce bullying in schools. Mindfulness programs in the school context will need to be introduced slowly over the next several years as students, parents, teachers, and administrators all have to understand the importance of these skills before they can be implemented into the classroom.

Abstract:
Abstract In both California and Texas, young adults generally do not evaluate male candidates more favorably than female candidates; however, some gender stereotypes are apparent in certain policy areas. In the Texas sample the man is evaluated more favorably for security and infrastructure policy, both stereotypically masculine, while in California women are viewed as capable for masculine policies. The more favorable evaluation of the man for security especially indicates traditional leadership templates because the man and women candidates’ speeches presented the exact same discussion of security policy. Party mattered in both experiments, with significantly more favorable evaluations when the candidate was from the participant’s party. The more traditional leadership template in Texas is consistent with the state’s emphasis on self-defense. Broad acceptance of women in the California sample fits with the Democratic leanings of that sample and the greater number of high-profile women politicians from that state.

Abstract:
In this chapter the author discusses several marketing principles and issues related to pitfalls and successes of Telehealth application in the case of a Web -based wellness program called Wellness Online Program (WOLP). WOLP takes a holistic approach to health or ‘wellness’ and runs for six weeks. It aims to help individuals to manage and improve their own wellbeing regardless of geographical location. Two groups have been recruited, doctor-referred group (DRG) and self-referred group (SRG). The acceptance of WOLP between the two groups was measured by using the technology acceptance model (TAM) at midway (Week 3) and study exit (Week 6). Findings show that the creation of WOLP to deliver wellness among individuals outside the primary healthcare environment is possibly cheaper, convenient, and more accessible than in the primary healthcare setting. However, issues regarding Web -based wellness program implementation are very important and it is crucial for service providers to thoroughly analyse as this will determine the success of the program.

Abstract:
Apps have been attested to empower patients regarding disease self-management through numerous studies. However, it is still unclear what factors determine the perception of patients whether an app is a useful tool for this purpose. A multiple regression model that was informed by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM 2) was tested based on the answers of 235 app users with Diabetes type 1 or 2. The model accounted for 59.2% of the variance of the perceived degree of self-management. Factors belonging to the relevance-usefulness-quality complex as well as factors reflecting the patient’s self-control were found to be significant in the model. Patient demographics, i.e. age, gender, app experience and type of Diabetes did not play any significant role. In conclusion, this study raises the question whether apps should be designed to strengthen self-management in the sense of self-control (e.g. own measurements, diary) as opposed to guiding and advice giving.

Abstract:
Children's gender perceptions are actively formed in preschool age and are an integral component of person's gender identity. The formation of sexual identity of a child continues from 2 to 7 years, and the formation of his/her imagination occurs in the process of socialization through: identification, imitation, following, modeling, direction, self-determination, encouragement, self-acceptance, self-reflection, cognitive dissonance. Child masters the social norms, patterns of behavior and cultural values of his/her nation. The gender approach to the upbringing of the preschool children should be focused on the formation and establishment of equal, gender-independent opportunities for self-realization of the individual. However as practical experience shows, the gender component and its methodological data are insufficient in terms of the content of preschool education. In preschool institutions, gender education takes place spontaneously, educators use the traditional approach to forming child's self-esteem and his stereotypes of self-perception only on the basis of gender, so it is important today to pay more attention to gender education and socialization. Experimentally it has been investigated the peculiarities of gender and age identification of the preschoolers of the preschool institution of a combined type #9 of the city of Chernivtsi. According to the research, the greater part of children of 5-6 years old are aware of their belonging to the male or female sex, having the already formed gender identity. Gender perceptions of preschool children are gender-appropriate: girls’ - feminine, and boys’ – masculine. In addition, they are stereotypical: boys have instrumental role, girls-expressive.

Abstract:
Previous research conducted by the author investigated the socio-political backgrounds of two groups of female students studying computer-related university programmes. They came from distinctly different backgrounds and were enrolled at two institutions with very different legacies. The author found that socio-political factors, in particular the role of a dominant female household head and aggressive governmental affirmative action, had a significant effect on the girls’ levels of confidence and subsequently on their decision to study computer-related courses. Based on this insight, the researcher undertook to look further into gender diversity with respect to self-perceived general computer confidence and self-perceived ability to program a computer. A sample of both female and male Information T echnology students from very similar disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds was surveyed. The sample of 204 students was drawn from all three years of the National Diploma in Information Technology. The author considered the following research questions: (i) Do males and females studying computer-related courses have differing computer selfefficacy levels? (ii) Do males and females studying computer programming have differing attitudes towards their ability to program? (iii) Do males and females differ in their attitudes towards the programming learning environment?

Abstract:
There is consensus in health studies that regular physical activities of sufficient intensity and duration contribute to better health both in the short and long term. In an ongoing research program, we focus on getting young elderly, the 60-75 years age group, to adopt and include physical activities as part of their everyday routines. Regular health-enhancing physical activities can serve as preventive health care, which will improve and sustain quality of life and build up savings in health-care macro costs for an ageing population. We have learned that digital service tools can be instrumental for the adoption and use of activity programs, and that the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) is instrumental for the acceptance and use of digital tools and services. We will argue that the UTAUT is not sufficient as such but can be enhanced to describe the adoption and use of health-enhancing physical activity programs.

Abstract:
The studies about anxiety are now integrated in a model which describe the computer anxiety as a component of academic anxiety, defined as emotion, behavior and believes which negatively influences learning performance. Some research concerning students or teachers attitudes towards using computers and the Internet has been performed since the eighties in most countries, but there are still few in Romania. This study presents the relationships between computer anxiety and demographic variables. The research participants are the Romanian college and university students, males and females. The employed tools are Computer Anxiety Rating Scale (Heinssen, Glass, & Knight, 1987) and the Computer self-efficacy Scale ( Compeau & Higgins, 1995). The tools employed for measuring the attitude toward computers includes items which directly measure believes about the effects of using the computer for learning. The participants have filed a questionnaire which includes demographic questions. The data has analyzed using different criteria: gender, age, grade, experience with the computer and Internet, marks. Results indicate differences between the anxiety of students according to their program of study, age and gender. Experience in the use of computers is associated with the anxiety level for this type of technology and mediates gender differences. Greater computer anxiety was associated with lower expectations and poorer task performance. High self efficacy is associated with better results in the use of computers, but also with positive beliefs about some benefits of using it. The results can be used by college and university teachers to manage learning situations, especially, in e-environment.

Abstract:
Several scientific studies have reported the existence of the income gap among rideshare drivers based on demographic factors such as gender, age, race, etc. In this paper, we study the income inequality among rideshare drivers due to discriminative cancellations from riders, and the tradeoff between the income inequality (called fairness objective) with the system efficiency (called profit objective). We proposed an online bipartite-matching model where riders are assumed to arrive sequentially following a distribution known in advance. The highlight of our model is the concept of acceptance rate between any pair of driver-rider types, where types are defined based on demographic factors. Specially, we assume each rider can accept or cancel the driver assigned to her, each occurs with a certain probability which reflects the acceptance degree from the rider type towards the driver type. We construct a bi-objective linear program as a valid benchmark and propose two LP-based parameterized online algorithms. Rigorous online competitive ratio analysis is offered to demonstrate the flexibility and efficiency of our online algorithms in balancing the two conflicting goals, promotions of fairness and profit. Experimental results on a real-world dataset are provided as well, which confirm our theoretical predictions.

Abstract:
This study attempted to examine user perspectives regarding the desirability of the diaphragm as a contraceptive method when included among other methods distributed freely through a family planning (FP) clinic. It sought to introduce on an experimental basis, the diaphragm into an ongoing and well-established FP clinic to increase contraceptive choice. This was primarily a qualitative study aimed at understanding women's perceptions about the risks and benefits, the reasons for use of the diaphragm, and the practical difficulties of using it effectively. It also studied the influence of service delivery factors in acceptance of this method. The study was part of a larger project of the Gender, Reproductive Health, and Population Policies research program. Information dissemination on diaphragms and other contraceptive methods was part of a comprehensive community outreach program on reproductive health education. Based on the information provided and use of the diaphragm over a month women perceived the key advantages to be the absence of side effects and the facility of need-based use. In addition, as this report notes, the diaphragm answered the needs of women who wished to space as well those who wished to limit the number of children.

Full text
Abstract:
Empowering adolescent girls through education has become a priority among numerous stakeholder. However, recent evidence suggests that education alone may not be suffcient if women remain in a low-empowerment equilibrium and face internal constraints as they relate to aspirations, self-efficacy, leadership, and other life (soft) skills. We study the long-term impacts of a school-based upper-secondary intervention, the Educate! Experience, designed to enhance adolescents’ leadership and social entrepreneurship skills in Uganda. The program was implemented as a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) in 48 schools. Four years post-intervention, we document lasting impacts on a wide array of leadership and soft skills. Overall, Educate! graduates developed skills that are traditionally associated with greater focus on long-term goals; they reported being more in control of aspects of their lives (self-efficacy and grit) and more empowered to implement actions towards their plans. Young women in the treatment group are also more likely to complete secondary education, delay family formation, enroll in tertiary education, and pursue STEM and Business majors relative to their counterparts in the control group. The program yielded socially desirable and gender relevant spillovers, including expansions in women’s agency. Both male and female Educate! graduates embraced more progressive views concerning women’s standing in the society and women’s ability to exercise their agency to engage in the labor market and refuse sex. The incidence of intimate partner violence (IPV) also improved among Educate! graduates, as did their attitudes toward IPV social acceptability.
