This study explored the circumcision refusal coping skills of women from the Pokot community, North-Eastern Uganda. Informants were 25 uncircumcised Pokot women and five key informants. Following in-depth interviews, the thematic analysis revealed that women cope with circumcision refusal by cultural repositioning, desertion of their parental and matrimonial homes, and getting married to men from other tribes. Additionally, the women coped with circumcision refusal through social support from close relatives and social institutions and ignoring those that harass them. They also focussed on positive experiences associated with non-circumcision and employed a high self-esteem, positivity about their future, and knowledge of the legal framework. Integration of uncircumcised women in the fight against female circumcision is imperative since their coping mechanisms in the community are critical in enhancing resilience among those at risk of being circumcised.","PeriodicalId":46959,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology in Africa","volume":"102 1","pages":"617 - 624"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60353796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The bank workers completed the organisational justice scale, work-place deviance scale, and perceived organisational support scale. Following hierarchical multiple regression analysis, the results showed that high distributive justice was associated with minor work-place deviance among bank workers. Perceived organisational support was associated with high work-place deviance (major) positively and (minor) negatively. Also, perceived organisational support moderated the relationship between interactive justice and major work-place deviance. These findings suggest more sensitisation among bank management on the need for equity in the distribution of organisational resources to enhance the reduction in deviant behaviours among bank workers.","PeriodicalId":46959,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology in Africa","volume":"32 1","pages":"569 - 577"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43691085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were 102 Mozambicans adults (female = 48%; mean age = 29.25 years; SD = 9.04 years). They responded to four kinds of information from realistic human rights scenarios: (i) the level of social protection citizens in the country enjoyed; (ii) the level of freedom of expression they enjoyed; (iii) the objective level of equality between citizens in the country; and (iv) the extent to which private life was respected. The Mozambican participants endorsed the indivisibility model of human rights, considering that only regimes that guarantee the full experience of all four kinds of basic rights can be considered as fully respectful of human rights. This perspective is similar of the one sustained by French and Venezuelan participants in a previous study. These findings suggest that the widespread “belle policy” (economic and social rights should take precedence over political and civil rights) defended by many sub-Saharan African policymakers must be challenged in favour of policies that promote the simultaneous fulfilment of all the citizens’ human rights.","PeriodicalId":46959,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology in Africa","volume":"32 1","pages":"592 - 598"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49284975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

National cross-sectional data from the Global School-Based Student Health Survey (GSHS) in Morocco in 2016 were analysed. Students who reported to have a history of past 12-month suicide attempts were included in the final sample (n = 931). In multiple logistic regression, students with MSA were compared with students with a single suicide attempt (SSA). Results indicated that among the subsample of school adolescents (median age = 15 years), 55.8% had attempted suicide once, and 44.2% multiple times in the past 12 months. Compared to students who attempted suicide once, students with MSA more often had anxiety-induced sleep disturbance and were more frequently bullied. Compared to participants without psychosocial distress, students with three or more psychosocial distress factors had higher odds of MSA. Further, compared to students without health risk behaviours, students with three or more health risk behaviours had a higher odd of MSA. Psychosocial distress (anxiety-induced sleep disturbance and frequently being bullied) and multiple health risk behaviours increased the odds of MSA, suggesting the potential relevance of these variables in identifying multiple suicide attempters among adolescents in Morocco.","PeriodicalId":46959,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology in Africa","volume":"32 1","pages":"625 - 631"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46832528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The participants completed adapted versions of the Parents’ Psychological Control Scale and the Peer Control Scale. Multivariate analyses of variance revealed that in the school and community contexts, early adolescents and female participants experienced significantly higher levels of control than older adolescents and male participants. Female early adolescents experienced significantly higher levels of control (school behavioural control, community behavioural control, and community psychological control) specific to the school contexts which was in the form of psychological control. Findings of this study can inform community mentors and school counsellors of the important psychological and behavioural impact that community norms and school values have on how adolescents experience their social worlds and negotiate the boundaries of various social systems.","PeriodicalId":46959,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Psychology in Africa","volume":"32 1","pages":"584 - 591"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47124845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
