The event themed Alternative visions of society: negotiating the future impact of the social sciences was an exhilarating two-day affair graced with the likes of Professors Steven Friedman and Leila Patel as keynote speakers. With hi-tech and world class infrastructure provided at Kgorong building, the atmosphere was tranquil and at its best ensuring the smooth running of the conference and that the delegates receive their money's worth.Catering was also top-notch as per usual. Reflecting back after spending extensive hours of architectural hard work as part of the conference administrative team, I was delighted to finally experience the unfolding of conference right before my eyes. I was there! I was there when conference delegates were welcomed by Professor Rosemary Moeketsi, the Executive Dean of the College of Human Sciences who also graciously opened the ceremony. I was there when Professor Steven Friedman delivered his keynote address. Through his expressive character, he gave a moving and an informative lecture on the political history of South Africa by focussing on the socioeconomic, cultural and political path dependencies of Mzansi. Immediately following the keynote address, coffee and tea was served and this kicked-off the four parallel sessions that took place on the day.","PeriodicalId":92427,"journal":{"name":"New voices in psychology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69123838","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 researchers hypothesized that psychology students would utilize more adaptive coping skills than non-psychology students, based on their exposure to psychological theory. The Brief COPE survey was administered to 43 psychology students and 47 non-psychology students. Analyses by means of T-tests were conducted to determine statistically significant differences in coping strategies between the two groups. The results indicated that there were no significant differences between the coping styles of psychology students and non-psychology students in 13 of the 14 subscales of the Brief COPE. However, a significant difference was found in one subscale, namely emotional support, with psychology students demonstrating significantly higher mean scores on the scale than non-psychology students (p < 0.01). Psychology students in the sample utilized the coping strategy of seeking emotional support significantly more than the non-psychology students in the sample. These results indicate that knowledge regarding coping does not necessarily translate into implementation of adaptive coping strategies. However, the results of this study indicates that psychology students sought more emotional support than non-psychology students and may therefore indicate that they are more willing to seek assistance in order to cope than non-psychology students.","PeriodicalId":92427,"journal":{"name":"New voices in psychology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69123343","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}

Domestic violence has been made to be only an issue that affects women; it has been gendered. Men are only brought into domestic violence discourse and research only as perpetrators. However, it affects both women and men as men can also be victims of domestic violence. Domestic violence rates have increased regardless of developments in legislation. In addition, role players in the implementation of legislation tend to emphasize more on female victims which leaves male victims marginalized. This leads to male victims suffering in silence and thinking that there are no interventions for them. This paper explored experiences of abused men in intimate heterosexual relationships using qualitative approach. Data collection took a form of in-depth individual interviews. Data was analyzed using thematic content analysis. Findings indicate that men are also victims of domestic violence and are willing to share their experiences; however there are limited platforms for male victims. Their reasons for staying are multifaceted such as giving their children an opportunity to grow up with both parents. Effects of domestic violence ranged from psycho-emotional to professional development. Social workers as professionals need to sensitize themselves to the reality of male victims of domestic violence and acknowledge that men can also be victims.","PeriodicalId":92427,"journal":{"name":"New voices in psychology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69123359","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}

A non-experimental, correlational research design was used. The sample consisted of 133 University of the Witwatersrand students who had completed the RDA IIA module. Participants completed a brief demographic questionnaire as well as the Rational-Experiential Inventory (Pacini & Epstein, 1999), assessing processing style preference, and the Statistical Reasoning Assessment (Garfield, 2003), assessing statistical reasoning ability. Results indicated statistically significant, positive relationships between preference for a rational information processing style and statistical reasoning ability; as well as between performance on RDA IIA and statistical reasoning ability. There were, however, no significant relationships between performance on RDA IIA Â and processing style preference. These findings yielded useful implications for the teaching of statistical courses and thus contribute to limited knowledge available regarding the links between processing style preference and statistical reasoning and performance, particularly in the South African context.","PeriodicalId":92427,"journal":{"name":"New voices in psychology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69123089","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}
