Full textAbstract:
Attitudes toward interfaith dating are a pertinent topic to investigate among groups characterized by endogamous marital patterns. In the present investigation, this topic is examined among Jewish adolescents living in minority and majority community contexts. This study offers an extension of previous research by drawing on theory from the social psychology of attitudes to explore the roles of various contextual and developmental variables in attitudes toward interfaith dating. Qualitative analysis was employed to identify attitudes and issues indicative of varying degrees of willingness to interfaith date. Quantitative analysis (using discriminant function analysis) was employed to explore the roles of various contextual and developmental variables in the attitudes and issues expressed. More restrictive attitudes toward interfaith dating were associated with majority adolescents, greater Orthodoxy, and more frequent religious participation.

By exploring narratives of Middle Eastern Christians (MECs) in Denmark I want to open an important, yet overlooked, window on invisible intra-ethnic relations in an immigrant context in Denmark. The subject of research is negotiations of boundary maintenance and strategies for recovering from boundary crossings in cases of interfaith intimacies between MEC women and Muslim men in Denmark. The research focuses on different contextual aspects of intimate boundary crossing and argues that already at the stage of dating, the relationship challenges boundaries and erodes families and communities. In order to explore some very diverse narratives, I ask: How do MECs in Denmark, who carry experiences of intra-ethnic interfaith intimacies with Muslims, negotiate boundary maintenance at the levels of the individual, the family and the MEC community?

Interfaith marriages, which are widely practiced in society, will, in the long term, have a social and psychological impact on children born to these couples. In contrast, in terms of legal aspects, they certainly have legal consequences for children born to couples of different religions. The purpose of this study was to determine the legal implications of interfaith marriages for children born according to Islamic law. Methods This study uses a normative juridical method by reviewing various literature relevant to the studied theme. Data was collected through a literature study to find secondary legal materials pertinent to the prescriptive descriptive approach. The study results indicate that the legal consequences of interfaith marriages are invalid marriages, and children born are not permitted according to Islamic law. According to Islamic law, Interfaith marriages have legal implications for children who are born; namely, children are considered as children born out of wedlock. Children born out of wedlock only have a kinship relationship with their mother and their mother's family.

Phenomenon of social dating: strategies of self-presentation In recent years, the use of online dating platforms has evolved from a marginal to a widespread social practice. The online dating arena provides an opportunity to investigate changing cultural norms concerning technology-mediated relationship formation and to shed light on such aspects of online behavior as the impression formation process and self-presentation strategies. A field experiment was focused on self-presentation strategies and tactics among online dating participants, investigating how participants' sex effects on managing their online presentation of self in order to accomplish the goal of enhancing their level of attractiveness. After conducting a pilot study, was collected 200 text-based profiles (100 women, 100 men) from the online dating service “Sympatia.pl” and examined through them with respect to strategies type.

Full textAbstract:
This longitudinal study examined whether nonviolent aspects of interparental conflict, in addition to interparental violence, predicted dating violence perpetration and victimization among 150 Mexican American and European American male and female adolescents, ages 16 to 20. When parents had more frequent conflict, were more verbally aggressive during conflict, had poor conflict resolution, or were physically violent during conflict at baseline, adolescents were more involved in dating violence, both perpetration and victimization, at 1-year follow-up. Adolescents' appraisals of parental conflict and their emotional distress mediated the relationships between nonviolent parental conflict and dating violence. In contrast, interparental violence directly predicted involvement in dating violence. Results provide support for the importance of nonviolent parental conflict as an influence on adolescents' involvement in dating violence, over and above the influence of interparental violence. Cognitive and emotional processes may help explain the way in which nonviolent aspects of parental conflict influence adolescents' behavior in romantic relationships.

The study examines the perceptions of interfaith spiritual care, received through a volunteer hospice organization, by 10 individuals facing death and dying. Qualitative methodology based on the Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis was used to collect and analyze the data. Four superordinate themes reflected meanings ascribed to spirituality and spiritual care in facing end of life: Vital Role of Spirituality in the End-of-Life Care, Definitions and Parameters of Spirituality and Interfaith Spiritual Care, Distinct Aspects of Interfaith Spiritual Care, and Unmet Spiritual Needs. The results expand an understanding of the role of spirituality and spiritual care as part of the hospice and palliative care through attention to individual perceptions and experiences, as well as to ways to expand attention to spirituality within the hospice care.

Interfaith marriage is still an interesting theme to be discussed which is full of controversy. Ahmad Nurcholish and Ang Mei Yong were one of the phenomenal interfaith marriages in Indonesia in 2003. This study focused on the conflict management model of interfaith marriage undertaken by both. Ahmad Nurcholish is a devout Muslim, and Ang Mei Yong is a Confucian. The interfaith marriages that are lived by them are mutual agreements without any element of coercion. According to Ahmad Nurcholish, to deal with interfaith marriages there are at least 3 models, namely: self-reflection, asking for advice from the closest person, and presenting mediators, through the process of externalization, objectification, and internalization. While in conflict management there are several aspects, namely, competency, collaboration, compromise, avoidance, and accommodating.Keywords: Marriage different religion, Ahmad Nurcholis, Social Construction, Conflict Management AbstrakPernikahan beda agama masih menjadi tema menarik untuk diperbincangkan yang sarat akan kontroversi.

Full textAbstract:
This article discusses different aspects of dialogue in the light of the Qur’ān and Sunnah. The Qur’ān calls for dialogue and the biography of the Prophet Muḥammad tells that he interacted with polytheists, hypocrites, and the people of the book. Therefore, dialogue with other religions is not just a forced choice imposed by geographical, social, or political realities; rather it is the best strategy that the Prophet employed during the Meccan and Medina phases of Islamic preaching. However, in the modern period, some people may accuse Islam of opposing interfaith dialogue. This study highlights that such accusations are baseless and that Islam teaches its followers to have dialogue with the adherents of other religions in the best possible way. Moreover, this study identifies the ways to promote and strengthen interfaith dialogue in the modern age.

This research explored the identity re-creation process as it occurs via the consumption of Internet dating services. Informants were interviewed about how they use their posted dating profiles to explore aspects of their own identities and about the perceived impact that online and offline feedback to these profiles have upon their identities. Informants' responses indicated that individuals can re-create their identities through the use of Internet dating services. Furthermore, online and offline validation of the identities presented in dating profiles seem to have an impact on individuals' beliefs about themselves and their behavior in both online and offline environments.

Full textAbstract:
Online relationships are becoming increasingly popular due to the availability, accessibility, and affordability of online social networking and dating sites. Individuals are progressively moving from meeting romantic partners face to face to meeting and engaging with individuals online. There is ample evidence to support the view that individuals do initiate romantic relationships online and often these relationships progress offline. The primary focus of online research had been conducted by communication and linguistic scholars while very little research has been conducted into the psychological conceptualisation of online relationships. In addition, there is a lack of available research pertaining to the development of romantic relationships online and more so in South Africa. The current study utilised Sternberg’s Triangular model of love and the Johari window as a framework for understanding the concepts involved in online romantic relationships. The study specifically aimed to explore and describe the lived experiences of individuals who engage in online dating. The parameters of the study included the elements that comprise the online relationship, the subjective meaning attached to the relationships, and the processes these relationships encompass. The study moreover aimed to explore the progression of the online relationship. The study used a qualitative, phenomenological approach using snowball sampling and semi structured interviews to collect data. Tesch’s model of content analysis was used during data analysis while incorporating the four major processes in phenomenological research, namely (1) epoche, (2) phenomenological reduction, (3) imaginative variation and, (4) synthesis. The findings of the study generated a greater understanding of the complexities of online dating. Themes including online relationship development, the dynamics of online relationships, how love, according to the triangular model of love, is perceived online and, self-disclosure online were identified through the participants narratives. These findings ultimately can be used for future research.

Falcone, Gabrielle. "Reality television dating program viewing and perceptions of realtionships among U.S. college students." Scholarly Commons, 2004. https://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/uop_etds/602.
Full textAbstract:
Reality dating shows like "The Bachelor," "The Bachelorette," "Average Joe," "For Love or Money" and "Joe Millionaire" have recently attracted a growing number of viewers in the United States. As these reality dating shows pry into the most intimate corners of the lives of ordinary people, they have many people questioning their impact on society. However, there has not been extensive research on this subject. The purpose of the study was to examine the extent that exposure to reality television dating shows have on the cultivation of attitudes and perceptions of interpersonal relationships among college students in the United States. Exposure to reality television dating shows as measured by days viewed in an average week was found to be correlated with the acceptance of dysfunctional relationship beliefs. However, the effect of exposure was found to depend on the amount of perceived realism with the effect stronger for those who evaluated the shows as realistic. These results are more supportive of cognitive-functional theory, rather than cultivation theory. No effects of exposure were found on acceptance of unrealistic relational beliefs.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores online dating by studying the relationship between self-disclosure and self-efficacy in an online dating environment. This research study examines the way self-disclosure, self-efficacy, self-esteem, and gender interrelate in an online dating environment. This study includes, but is not limited to, discussion of the type of correlation between self-efficacy and self-esteem, the relationship between self-disclosure and self-efficacy, and the differences between men's and women's self-disclosure in an online dating environment. From conducting this study, the researcher was able to determine that there is a statistically significant relationship between gender and how it relates to self-disclosure and self-efficacy. With the results from the study, the understanding of how different variables relate to online dating and romantic relationships has been taken one step further as it helps fill the gap in the literature.

Full textAbstract:
Given the limited empirical evidence to guide support for romantic functioning in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), this research aims to explore how closeness is managed in romantic relationships when one member is diagnosed with ASD. 8 participants, 3 couples and 2 individuals aged between 26 and 80 took part in the study. Of these 5 (3 male and 2 female) were autistic and 3 (1 male and 2 females were non-autistic). Participants were recruited using a specialist nationwide organization and they were interviewed individually or conjointly, as well as observed during a 15- minute interaction. Constructivist grounded theory was used to analyse the data and a framework was produced to describe processes of managing closeness in ASD. The core concept to emerge from the analysis was entitled “reaching towards the unknown”. It consisted of three categories, termed “encountering the other”, “reaching for understanding” and “managing uncertainty”. The framework captured processes of joining with and adapting to someone very different, of stretching beyond familiar bounds in order to understand the other and manage uncertainty. This research offers an inter-subjective perspective of ASD. It frames socio-emotional reciprocity and adaptability within romantic relationships as relational phenomena, which are contingent upon factors outlined within the framework. The model considers pre-existing theories about romantic closeness in order to assist counselling psychologists in accommodating ASD within their couple therapy practice.

Full textAbstract:
本研究試圖通過在進化心理學理論的框架內解釋和預測男性的攻擊和創造力。該框架基於性選擇理論，該理論認為人類的許多特質，包括攻擊和創造力可能與性選擇的進化過程有關。人的很多行為因受到性間和性內選擇壓力的影響，而會對具體的擇偶情境作出特定的反應。達爾文的性選擇理論提出，性間選擇壓力與裝飾品式的行為有關，而性內選擇壓力與武器式的行為有關。本論文通過三個實證研究，同時探討這兩種選擇壓力引發的擇偶情境與男性行為之間的關係。我假設性間選擇與創造力相關，而性內競爭與攻擊性相關。在研究1和2中，通過實驗區分兩種擇偶情境來啟動性間和性內選擇相應的動機。具體來說，我要求大學生被試實際參與一個與異性約會的模擬遊戲（研究1）或者想像一個約會情景（研究2），並告知他們的行為表現會讓這一異性評價或者讓其他同性追求者評價。接著他們分別完成測量創造力（即，“納入類別任務“和“不同尋常用法任務“）和攻擊行為（“競爭性反應時任務“）的任務，被試在兩個任務的表現分別代表他們的裝飾品式行為和武器式行為。研究1和2的結果都一致地顯示，與男性大學生在性內選擇條件下相比，男性大學生在性間選擇條件下表現出更高的創造力但是更低的攻擊性。而對於女性大學生來說，他們在性間和性內兩個條件下的創造力和攻擊性表現沒有差異。研究3進一步探討對於裝飾品式行為和武器式行為特點不同的男性，他們是否會參與不同的擇偶策略（異性吸引或同性競爭）來獲得異性配偶。也就是說，有創造力的男性更傾向於採取異性吸引的策略，而攻擊性的男性則更傾向於採取同性競爭的策略。該研究使用問卷調查，118名男性大學生被試完成創造力和攻擊性相關的人格量表以及自編擇偶策略問卷。多元回歸分析結果顯示，創造力與異性吸引策略相關，而攻擊性與同性競爭策略相關。
本論文的三個研究結果支持了基於達爾文的性選擇理論的假設，男性使用創造力作為吸引女性的裝飾品，因此性間選擇與創造力相關；而男性也會使用攻擊來作為武器去跟同性競爭，因此性內選擇與攻擊相關。本研究結果具有如下的研究和實際意義。首先，現有的文獻只是在比較不同物種所具有的專門化擇偶策略時，才會功能性地區分性間與性內選擇壓力。本研究顯示這兩類選擇壓力對人類男性同樣適用。不同的選擇壓力還會造成物種內的個體差異性。如本研究的結果所示，男性在應對這兩種類型選擇壓力時會選擇性地做出反應，表現出獨特的行為來。其次，裝飾品式和武器式的擇偶策略不僅能夠依據不同的情境而被啟動，而且還會被看做是不同的人格特質，允許個體優化他們的性間選擇或性內競爭。第三，基於對人類這兩類行為的終極功能的進化理解，本研究結果有助於發展教育情境內（干預）專案或者課程，以提高學生的創造力及降低攻擊性。
The present study examines male aggression and creativity as functions of inter-and intra-sex context within the framework of sexual selection. According to sexual selection theory, both intra-sexual competition, mainly among the unlimited sex, or males, and mate choice, mostly by the limiting sex, or females, lead to wide ranging sex dimorphic attributes, which are referred to as weapons (e.g., aggression) and ornaments (e.g., creativity). Within this evolutionary framework, I tested the hypothesis that inter-sexual courtship was associated with creativity as an ornament-like behavior, whereas intra-sexual competition was associated with aggression as a weapon-like behavior.
In the first two studies, I experimentally manipulated two mating situations to prime the motivation either for inter- or intra-sex selection in the laboratory. Specifically, these two motivations were manipulated by having university undergraduate students participate in a simulated dating game (Study 1) or imagine a romantic mating situation (Study 2) with their performance being evaluated either by a female date or male suitors. A set of creativity tasks (i.e., Category Inclusion Task and Unusual Uses Task) and an aggression task (Competitive Reaction Time Task) were used to measure ornament- and weapon-like behavior, respectively. The results in both Study 1 and 2 provided the consistent evidence, showing that men under the intra-sexual selection condition showed a higher level of aggression and lower level of creativity than men under the inter-sexual selection condition. For women, there was no difference between inter-sexual and intra-sexual selection conditions. In Study 3, I further examined whether individual differences in ornament- and weapon-like traits might influence men’s mating behaviors. I hypothesized that creative men tended to engage in inter-sexual courtship, whereas aggressive men tended to engage in intra-sexual competition. Survey data based on 118 male undergraduate students from a Chinese university showed that creativity, but not aggression, predicted inter-sexual courtship whereas aggression, but not creativity, predicted intra-sexual competition.
Together, these studies support the evolutionary theory that inter-sex courtship was related to creativity which men employed as an ornament to attract females, whereas intra-sex competition was related to aggression which men used as weapons. These findings have several implications. First, I showed the same functional distinction between intra- and inter-sex selection pressures on human males. The existing literature draws such functional distinction only when comparing different species with specialized mating strategies. Different selection pressures also act on individuals within the same species to create individual differences. As shown in the present study, men might selectively respond to these two kinds of sexual selection pressures with distinct behaviors. Second, both ornament- and weapon-like mating strategies are not only situationally activated but can also be regarded as personality traits that allow individuals to optimize either intra-sexual competition or inter-sexual courtship. Third, the results may help to develop educational programs aimed at increasing creativity and reducing aggression that are based on the evolutionary understanding of the ultimate functions of these two human behaviors.

Marriages with differences in religion are a source of misunderstanding, friction, and disharmony,
and as a result, such marriages are exposed to a breakdown. Religion is not merely a set of
beliefs, but a way of living and thinking. When this differs, it causes misunderstanding in the
family and may cause marriage failure as adjustments to each other becomes compocated. D vorce
is much more common in mixed marriages whether of different culture, religious or
socio-economic background than when the backgrounds are similar. Religious similarity is linked
to marital durability.
The researcher wanted to indicate through this work that the increase of. marriages
between people of different religious faiths does not really matter to people any longer. It
is proved in this research that the outcome of such marriages is in most cases disastrous.
Mixed marriages are the object of attention in every society because of their life meaning.
Marriage is more than a relationship between individuals. It involves many more people, It is
suggested in this study that African traditional methods like mahundwane (camping or a miniature
village), betrothal and the giving of thakha (bride wealth} in marriage should be used to prevent
both mixed marriages and marital problems which usually leads to marriage breakdown.Religious Studies and Arabic

Text in EnglishPrevious studies have reported a high prevalence of HIV and AIDS among adolescent girls. It is estimated that there are 5,24 million people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). These estimates would mean that about 2.36 million people living with HIV/AIDS would be young women and girls aged 15-24 years. The latest household survey conducted by the Human Science Research Council (HSRC) revealed that the prevalence of HIV is three to seven fold in girls and young women aged 15-24 than boys and young men (HSRC 2014) This resurgence in HIV incidence is occurring at a time when it is believed the epidemic has reached a plateau following aggressive behavioural, biomedical and structural interventions by the Department of Health, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO) and civil society in general. A probability sampling method, involving a random selection of elements was used to select 130 young women and girls aged 18-24 presenting at Dr George Mukhari Academic Hospital by simple random sampling. Data were collected by self-administering questionnaires. High unemployment and greater age-disparity in the relationships were found to have a direct correlation with HIV incidence in the population under study. This study also shows that inconsistent condom use, low rate of medical male circumcision of male partners, coupled with lower HIV counselling and testing than the national average, was associated with new HIV infections, in spite of high level of condom availability, knowledge of HIV issues and an exposure to an array of behavioural change communication interventions.

The chapter focused on the impact of online dating, cyber stalking, cybersex, and pornography on mental health. Though many studied the online dating among adolescents and adults, that of old age group is not yet fully explored especially about their sexual needs. It is worth exploring factors related to risky sexual behaviors among gay and bisexual individuals. Online dating for mentally ill people is an under-researched area. Cyberstalking is an important issue, especially among adolescents and young adults, and cybersex and cyber pornography threatens the safety and mental health in addition to the problems of addiction and child trafficking, and it is linked with high sexual risk behaviors and sex crimes. It is necessary to develop tailored psychotherapeutic and pharmacological interventions by taking into account the complexity and heterogeneity of the problems.

The paper presents findings regarding AI and Machine Learning and how “thinking machines” differ from human beings? In the next part the paper presents the issue of AI and Machine Learning’s impact on day-to-day activities in the following areas: 1. Microtargetting and psychometrics – with the examples from the business and politics; 2. Surveillance systems, biometric identification, COVID 19 tracing apps etc. – the issue of privacy in the digital era; 3. The question of choice optimization (AI-driven Web browsers and dating apps, chatbots and virtual assistants etc.); whether free will still exist in the AI supported on-line environment? The article is summed up with conclusions.

More than half a billion users across the globe have availed themselves of e-dating services. This chapter looks at the marketing and cross-cultural aspects of mate-seeking behavior in e-dating. We content analyzed 238 advertisements from online matrimonial sites in three countries: India (n=79), Hong Kong (n=80), and Australia (n=79). Frequencies of mention of the following ten attribute categories in the advertiser’s self-description were established using post hoc quantitative analysis: love, physical status, educational status, intellectual status, occupational status, entertainment services, money, demographic information, ethnic information, and personality traits. Past research on mate selection using personal ads and the three countries’ positions on Hofstede’s dimensions of culture were used in hypotheses generation. The results support several culture-based differences in people’s self-description in online personal ads; however, some anticipated differences were not realized, suggesting that some cultural differences may not be as strong as Hofstede (2001) suggests.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter explains the theory behind an information communication technology (ICT) being developed to provide marginalised populations with a tool for uniting the voices of progressive-minded activists. The theory suggests that with this technology, seemingly incompatible progressive groups might enlarge their campaigns for social equity, creating a global, heterogeneous network. The ICT allows for the capture of crowd-sourced artistic creativity, and through algorithms that have been shaped by academics in public administration, makes content retrievable as pluralistic, policy-supporting narrative threads. The new narratives should also work to alter the discourse within communities by diminishing the worldview threats associated with zero-sum ideology. This ICT is seen as vital because of how powerful lobbyists (funded by global elites) have consistently been successful in skewing the outcomes of policymaking decisions and elections. The system is firmly rooted in the small-group, consensus-building organisational theories of respected authors dating back to the 1970s.

A hallmark of good nursing practice is how it is recorded and communicated to colleagues and other members of the healthcare team. Local policy and procedures will dictate how this important duty is undertaken in specific settings, but key principles ensure that professional standards, ethical guidelines, and legal requirements are achieved. Systems of recording nursing decisions and actions have changed greatly over the years but, whatever the form, the individual nurse is responsible and accountable for this written communication. Accurate and efficient record keeping has benefit for the recipient of care, and for the nurse if their practice is ever called into question. Few, if any, aspects of contemporary social life have been untouched by the information technology (IT) revolution of recent decades. From ‘gaming’ and ‘dating’ to ‘politics’ and ‘protest’, many people now spend much of their time in a virtual reality, negotiating the super-highways of cyber-space. Attention is given to social media and professional practice where the advantages of mass communication for the nursing profession have to be considered alongside the costs of increasingly blurred boundaries between public and private space.

International labor migration plays a key role in the South Indian state of Kerala, with repercussions for family formation, childcare, dating, and many other aspects of culture. This chapter focuses on how female labor migration affects male and female gender roles in Kerala with respect to religious activity. Female labor migration often results in enhanced personal power for women, giving them a greater say in how things are done in their families. But what about religion? How do women who have experienced expanded social possibilities through international work think about who they are as religious actors? Do expanded female roles in the home and the workplace translate into more expansive roles for women in religious spheres? And what about men? How have men dealt with the repercussions of female labor migration? With women taking on new social roles, what happens to traditional ideas about men and masculinity? Field work on a popular South India pilgrimage offers data to show how women and men in Kerala are adapting to changes wrought by female labor migration.

Full textAbstract:
Following a short section summarizing the interpretative contributions of the book as a whole, this chapter takes a wider perspective, drawing on the material studied in the preceding chapters to first compare Egypt to the wider Roman world, and, second, examine the transition from the Roman to late antique period and beyond in Egypt. First, the overall contribution of the book is emphasized: a new interpretation which takes a social archaeology approach to everyday life. The point is also made that the work is grounded in a careful re-evaluation of object dating, and informed by neglected archive information. In addition to providing a secure foundation for the book, this fundamental research provides an important resource for future studies. Next, evidence for both similarities and differences to wider Roman culture is presented, and the multiple ways in which Roman-style material culture may have functioned within the social context of Egypt are examined. Finally, the relationship between the objects studied and wider social changes is investigated; the transition from the Roman to the late antique period, and beyond. This includes a consideration of the impact of Christianity, and wider evidence, through dress objects, of shared culture across the Byzantine Christian world, as well as evidence of economic change at the end of the Byzantine period in Egypt. Some aspects of continuity and change into the early Islamic period, as reflected through the material studied, are also briefly considered.

Full textAbstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings: Building blocks: The ultimate aim should be to build rich, detailed and testable narratives situated within a European context, and addressing phenomena from the longue durée to the short-term over international to local scales. Chronological control is essential to this and effective dating strategies are required to enable generation-level analysis. The ‘serendipity factor’ of archaeological work must be enhanced by recognising and getting the most out of information-rich sites as they appear. o There is a pressing need to revisit the archives of excavated sites to extract more information from existing resources, notably through dating programmes targeted at regional sequences – the Western Isles Atlantic roundhouse sequence is an obvious target. o Many areas still lack anything beyond the baldest of settlement sequences, with little understanding of the relations between key site types. There is a need to get at least basic sequences from many more areas, either from sustained regional programmes or targeted sampling exercises. o Much of the methodologically innovative work and new insights have come from long-running research excavations. Such large-scale research projects are an important element in developing new approaches to the Iron Age. Daily life and practice: There remains great potential to improve the understanding of people’s lives in the Iron Age through fresh approaches to, and integration of, existing and newly-excavated data. o House use. Rigorous analysis and innovative approaches, including experimental archaeology, should be employed to get the most out of the understanding of daily life through the strengths of the Scottish record, such as deposits within buildings, organic preservation and waterlogging. o Material culture. Artefact studies have the potential to be far more integral to understandings of Iron Age societies, both from the rich assemblages of the Atlantic area and less-rich lowland finds. Key areas of concern are basic studies of material groups (including the function of everyday items such as stone and bone tools, and the nature of craft processes – iron, copper alloy, bone/antler and shale offer particularly good evidence). Other key topics are: the role of ‘art’ and other forms of decoration and comparative approaches to assemblages to obtain synthetic views of the uses of material culture. o Field to feast. Subsistence practices are a core area of research essential to understanding past society, but different strands of evidence need to be more fully integrated, with a ‘field to feast’ approach, from production to consumption. The working of agricultural systems is poorly understood, from agricultural processes to cooking practices and cuisine: integrated work between different specialisms would assist greatly. There is a need for conceptual as well as practical perspectives – e.g. how were wild resources conceived? o Ritual practice. There has been valuable work in identifying depositional practices, such as deposition of animals or querns, which are thought to relate to house-based ritual practices, but there is great potential for further pattern-spotting, synthesis and interpretation. Iron Age Scotland: ScARF Panel Report v Landscapes and regions: Concepts of ‘region’ or ‘province’, and how they changed over time, need to be critically explored, because they are contentious, poorly defined and highly variable. What did Iron Age people see as their geographical horizons, and how did this change? Attempts to understand the Iron Age landscape require improved, integrated survey methodologies, as existing approaches are inevitably partial. Aspects of the landscape’s physical form and cover should be investigated more fully, in terms of vegetation (known only in outline over most of the country) and sea level change in key areas such as the firths of Moray and Forth. Landscapes beyond settlement merit further work, e.g. the use of the landscape for deposition of objects or people, and what this tells us of contemporary perceptions and beliefs. Concepts of inherited landscapes (how Iron Age communities saw and used this longlived land) and socal resilience to issues such as climate change should be explored more fully. Reconstructing Iron Age societies. The changing structure of society over space and time in this period remains poorly understood. Researchers should interrogate the data for better and more explicitly-expressed understandings of social structures and relations between people. The wider context: Researchers need to engage with the big questions of change on a European level (and beyond). Relationships with neighbouring areas (e.g. England, Ireland) and analogies from other areas (e.g. Scandinavia and the Low Countries) can help inform Scottish studies. Key big topics are: o The nature and effect of the introduction of iron. o The social processes lying behind evidence for movement and contact. o Parallels and differences in social processes and developments. o The changing nature of houses and households over this period, including the role of ‘substantial houses’, from crannogs to brochs, the development and role of complex architecture, and the shift away from roundhouses. o The chronology, nature and meaning of hillforts and other enclosed settlements. o Relationships with the Roman world
