Recent models of sexual response have challenged the traditional view of spontaneity of sexual desire and argue that desire is context specific and not so obviously spontaneous. However, the Inner responsive desire has been theorized mainly with regard to women’s sexuality. Design and method. For measurement of sexual desire, I distinguished state and trait levels of desire and applied Imagined Social Situation Exercise (ISSE) measures. Results. The trait level of sex desire was significantly different for men and women and state sex desire before the experiment was equal. The sex manipulation changed sex desire level compared with the controls and it worked equally for both men and women. Conclusions. Based on my results I can conclude that state and trait desire levels are similar for men and women and applying ISSE really increases state level of sexual desire. No sex differences were found and it seems that trait and state levels of sexual desire work relatively independently from each other.\"","PeriodicalId":120251,"journal":{"name":"Psychological Applications and Trends","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131993149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They interfere with everyday situations generating problems with adaptive ways of coping with stress. The rigid and unhealthy way of thinking and behaving characteristic for personality or mood disorders creates many problems relating to situations and people. It also provokes many difficult reactions in response to stress, such as self-destructive behaviors. As it is stated in the literature, self-destructive behaviors are related to self-esteem, social approval, and anxiety level. In the presented study the analysis of relations between data on self-destruction, self-esteem, social desirability, and anxiety level was conducted. A group of 100 respondents, including 79 women, and 21 men age 18-60 (M=31.91; SD=8.22) were asked to fill in set of questionnaires. Among all subjects there were 43 persons without any diagnosis, 22 people with mood disorder diagnosis, and 35 respondents with personality disorders. All diagnosis were conducted by psychiatrists based on ICD-10 diagnostic criteria. The test battery filled in by each subject consisted of Self-Destruction Questionnaire, Self-Esteem Scale, State Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Social Desirability Questionnaire. It was discovered that there is a positive correlation between self-destructive behaviors and anxiety. Negative relationship was found between self-destructive behaviors, self-esteem, and social desirability. Additional analysis concerning the link between personality disorder, repression and/ or sensitization of emotional stimuli uncovered that people diagnosed with personality disorders are more prone to high anxiety level and sensitization of emotional stimuli than are the people without such diagnosis. On the other hand, many people without any clinical diagnosis recruit themselves from repressors group.\"","PeriodicalId":120251,"journal":{"name":"Psychological Applications and Trends","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115408487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The term represents a growth mindset that is continually developing criticality through consciousness. Freire believed education would benefit from students questioning teachers to develop meaning-making and clarity of rationale. Paulo Freire coined the phrase, Pedagogy of the Oppressed, with his ground-breaking and inspirational view of the education system in 1970. His book noted students as oppressed by an education system by singling out the teacher-student relationship and offered insight into policy changes and approaches to teaching that considered student-centered education and the development of student discourse. Fifty years later, this paper presents a critical investigation of the impact of technology devices used in education among vulnerable and marginalized populations as a highly significant and needed focus, given the rapidly increasing reliance on internet-based technologies across the increasingly diverse communities comprising our public educational system. Current school technology agreements and poorly worded surveillance policies may silence vulnerable and marginalized populations voice or agency for students challenged by past trauma, lived experiences, emotion dysregulation or specifically a Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD). Teachers, administrators, technology staff and school board members were asked questions related to their understanding of policies related to technology and surveillance of devices such as laptops, cell phones, iPads and school sponsored BYOD programs. The information collected served as an indicator for which to measure the content knowledge and experience of the participants as well as the individual perceived goals or intentions of the participants school in relation to surveillance of staff and students. Data collected during the study indicated surveillance is attributed to five themes: well-being, assessment, policy, security, punitive. Key findings included: an assumption that school technology agreements included the use of personal devices and schools may not uniquely identify inappropriate behaviour. Additionally, assumptions informed the personal use of technology during school hours with administrators and IT staff referencing general larger district acceptable use policies assumed to be accepted as applicable to all technology equipment and general use. Assumptions regarding the enforcement of the technology agreement applications to personally owned cell phones at school, were enforced during tests; and considered generally accepted privacy concerns by students and staff related to the inappropriate recording of others through taking pictures; video; but extending to accessing social media. Finally, IT staff and administration shared parental concerns of the surveillance of students on Google and phones.\"","PeriodicalId":120251,"journal":{"name":"Psychological Applications and Trends","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124145241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agiliga (2013) contemplated if Black women could use BDSM as a way to regain sexual agency; while literature records poly relationships as evident in First People’s culture (TallBear, 2020) and Maori Indigenous story telling (Hutchings & Aspin, 2007). Religion is also a consideration for the acceptance of polygamy (Foster, 2010) and marital discipline (Deshotels et al. 2019); despite a 2014 court ruling in Britain, that “singled out spanking as an unacceptable BDSM activity” (Khan, 2020, p. 367) for unwedded couples. Khan (2020) notes that Family Law is a “sticky area”. In one comparison, Khan (2020) notes “The judge justified the branding of his (the husband’s) initials into his wife’s buttocks ‘because the participants were a wedded couple and the incident took place in the sanctified space of the ‘marital home’ (p. 366).

Participants were asked questions related to their understanding of bring your own device (BYOD) policies at school and away from school as well as their understanding of inappropriate behaviour as it is defined by their school and school board. Various stakeholders responded to the questions from an accountability and personal responsibility perspective, noting a typology of “reporter” for each stakeholder group, noting students seldom reported on each other. Participants were further asked to reflect on their personal knowledge of privacy and personal devices through a background survey that asked stakeholders to select one or more options from a provided list (brand new, don’t know anything, still learning, feel comfortable using it in education settings, have questions, know a little, have more to learn, am an expect, help other people, other).

We have developed a comprehensive methodological approach that allows us to evaluate the interaction of medical students with children with atypical development (AD). The approach includes an assessment of the psychophysiological and psychological state of the study participants, conducting a perceptual study, recording and analyzing the mimic expression and speech of the subjects. During the perceptual experiment, students are presented with test sequences containing speech signals of children with typical development (TD) and AD (Down syndrome; autism spectrum disorders) and a video test containing behavioral patterns of AD children. During the perceptual experiment, a parallel video recording of the behavior of the auditors is carried out, which makes it possible to verify their answers using the specialized software FaceReader, which determines the true emotional state of a person by his facial expression. After the perceptual experiment, the auditors answer questions regarding their relationship to the listened speech signals. The psychoemotional status of students is determined before and after the experiment using a battery of psychological tests. The change in the state of the subjects was determined by instrumental spectrographic analysis of their speech recorded before and after participating in the experiment. The speech material was analyzed using the Cool Edit Pro audio editor. The study participants were 40 students of the St. Petersburg State Pediatric Medical University - adult native speakers of the Russian language. The subjects were divided into 2 groups. The first group consisted of students of the first and second courses; the second group - students of the fifth and sixth courses. In the course of the work, original data were obtained on the acoustic characteristics of speech, reflecting the state of medical students before and after participating in a perceptual experiment aimed at recognizing the type of child development. According to the results of psychological testing, it was found that the students of the second group experienced less emotional tension before the start of the study, compared with the subjects of the first group. Relationships between the psychological parameters of the subjects and the success of the tasks of the perceptual experiment were determined.

Usually, foreign language methodologies and instruction in foreign language education are specifically designed for the majority of learners who have the capacities and abilities to comprehend a foreign language and learn it. The majority also masters competencies necessary for reading comprehension enhancement. However, there are learners with neurodiversity who need special attention when acquiring a foreign language. In the real school settings, very little attention is devoted to such learners. This study stands on the presumption that individual differences are a natural part of foreign language education and every single individual has specific desires and needs when foreign language learning is concerned. ADHD foreign language learners are defined as having low levels of attention, low communication skills, low literacy, and difficulties to concentrate (Hawkins, Gathercole, Astle, 2016). The research was designed as a case study of an 11 years-old English language learner diagnosed with ADHD. The article presents selected data gained from a research project that took two years of examination. Specifically, it emphasises the ability of the selected ADHD learner to devote his attention to reading in a foreign language at the English language lessons after the intervention was introduced. The first part of the article defines characteristics of ADHD learners from a neurological and psychological points of view. Then the approach we selected for the intervention was a specifically designed set of strategies grounded in the strategies of drama games, multisensory approach to teaching foreign language and Total Physical Response (TPR), all characterised as non-traditional approaches to foreign language instruction. The second part of the article presents selected research data. The case study research was conducted in an average size public school in the south of Slovakia. Based on the results we tend to have strong conviction that non-traditional classroom management together with the selected intervention approach introduced in the research study stimulated higher interest of the selected learner to read and respond to the text interactively.

No gender differences were observed in regard to relationship desire, F(1,190) = 0.51, p = .476 and relationship dismissal, F(1,190) = 3.13, p = .079. Furthermore, differences emerged between single and coupled individuals in the domain of relationship desire, F(1,190) = 64.73, p < .001 with single individuals reporting lower relationship desire than coupled individuals; and in the domain of relationship dismissal, F(1,190) = 57.43, p < .001 with single individuals reported higher relationship dismissal.

While risk is by definition included in the creative process, ideation can cut down time and costs of fostering innovative solutions. Inventive systems such as TRIZ (?????? ??????? ???????????????? ?????), CPS (Creative Problem-Solving) or DT (Design Thinking), have paved the way in supporting creators, designers, inventors and scientists in innovative solutions seeking. However, only a few of these systems are scientifically proven to be effective. It seems that CPS, initiated by Osborn, is the best evidence-based inventive system, as well as it is still developed both in empirical research, and in real-life practice (Buijs, Smulders & van der Meer, 2009; Isaksen & Treffinger, 2004; Puccio, Murdock & Mance, 2005). The main assumption of CPS is that creating innovative ideas is a phase process, i.e. following a certain universal pattern. Baer and Kaufman (2005) argue that CPS involves various skills, especially domain-specific creativity (i.e. related to expert knowledge), which is embedded in general abilities such as intelligence and motivation. However, the use of CPS requires high-class experts who are not only specialists in a specific field but also trained in creative problem-solving. Regardless of the costs, it is a bottleneck for the application of such inventive techniques on a larger scale. Therefore, new approaches in development of AI-powered creative tools to assist creators and designers seem to be emerging. One of them is @CREATE – an expert inventive system based on CPS and supported by artificial intelligence.

In this regard, there is a need for a combined study of the patients’ QoL indicators in the situation of illness and the psychological mechanisms of adaptation to it. A specific cohort is represented by patients who underwent amputation due to tumor lesions of the bones and soft tissues of the lower extremity. They have not been sufficiently studied in terms of psychology. The foregoing determined the purpose of this research: to study the clinical and psychological status, strategies and personal resources for coping with stress, and QoL of patients who underwent lower limb amputation due to cancer in comparison with patients who underwent amputation due to non-cancer diseases. An empirical study is carried out using clinical and psychodiagnostic methods, including the QLQ-C30, WCQ, Big V questionnaires. Two groups of patients were studied: those who underwent amputation due to an oncological disease (group 1, n=24), and those who underwent amputation due to other –non-oncological– diseases (group 2, n=15). The results obtained indicate patients’ rather high adherence to postoperative treatment and rehabilitation in a hospital setting, and a pronounced decrease in the QoL of patients. Patients of both groups rated their physical and role activity as low, as well as their financial situation. Among the symptoms limiting vital functioning, all emphasize fatigue; the differences between the groups were determined according to three symptomatic scales: fatigue (p=0,071) and pain (p=0,093) are more troubling for patients with oncological pathology, shortness of breath (p=0,047) for patients with other chronic somatic diseases. When studying the mechanisms of psychological adaptation to the disease, it was found that among patients of group 1, the coping strategies “Distancing” (p=0,056) and “Escape–avoidance” (p=0,098) prevail, as well as the strategy “Positive reappraisal” (p=0,025), the indicators of which, however, are lower than the average normative values.
