CLASSMATE 1My score for Hostile sexism is 1.82, and the benevoleVinaOconner450
油
CLASSMATE 1
My score for Hostile sexism is 1.82, and the benevolent was 2. 73. I compared my scores to the average score of Males and Nigeria. I chose to compare my score with that of the males because our society has a set of ideas about how women are expected to behave, ranging from dressing, speaking, accommodating, and nurturing. The presence of feminism and woman studies has reduced these assigned roles to women; however, the connection still exists. Women still face sexism in the work area and experience a personality trait stereotype where women are expected to be accommodating, stay at home with children, etc. Compared to the Male Average Score, it wasnt surprising to see theirs higher than mine. I was, as expected, a high score. According to our text, stereotypes, like other cognitive representations, are maintained because the information that confirms our stereotypes is better remembered than information that disconfirms them (Fyock &Stangor, 1994). For example, if we believe women to be bad at math and see a woman with bad scores in math, we quickly remember it compared to a woman with good scores in math. It also applies to my expectation of a higher score of efficiently placing some men discriminate against women even though I have seen men who support women.
The other category I selected was a country (Nigeria). From an African background, I am aware of my social cognition, which is how my knowledge about social worlds influences me as an individual. I was curious to compare how largely Ive been socially influenced by the social norms of the United States to Africa. Although I am aware of how submissive African women have to be to their husbands and how authoritative some African men can be, I was shocked by how high scores of Nigeria are in both hostile sexism and benevolent sexism. Average Nigerian scores on hostile and benevolent sexism were way higher than those listed on the data. Due to their collectivism, Nigerians are more concerned about interdependence and thus have a high social dominance orientation (SDO). As sexist as I may sound, some of the questions were demeaning to me. For example, question 20, Men should be willing to sacrifice their well-being to provide financially for the women in their lives, which I strongly disagreed with. As a wife and mom, I wouldnt want my husband or son to sacrifice his mental health or health to provide for me financially. I would like to be loved, respected, but not financially sound to the detriment of someones health.
2. The ambivalent sexism does make sense because it was developed to measure hostile and benevolent attitudes towards women. In contrast to many other forms of ethnic, racial, etc., relationships between men and women are not marked by simply antipathy and negative stereotypes. Sexism is commonly thought to be a manifestation of male hatred against females. This viewpoint overlooks one crucial aspect of sexism: subjectively good attitudes toward women, w ...

Middle school emerged in the 1960s-1970s due to overcrowding in elementary schools and a recognition that the developmental needs of students in grades 5-8 differed from those in elementary and high school. While middle school aims to provide a more developmentally-appropriate environment for early adolescents, concerns have been raised about teachers' preparation to work with this age group and the lack of specialized curricula and instruction. An expert interviewee discussed the mental, physical, and social characteristics of students in elementary, middle, and high school. The presentation provided information and engaged groups in discussing whether middle school should continue to exist.
This document discusses the difficulties in measuring and defining grief as well as opportunities for grief research. It notes that while grief is a universal experience, it is also uniquely experienced. There is lack of consensus on how to define grief and its various stages or patterns. The document also discusses the evolution of conceptualizing pathological grief and proposes criteria for traumatic grief and prolonged grief disorder. It emphasizes the importance of grief measurements and definitions for diagnosing those in need of treatment and evaluating interventions. Overall, the document argues that while progress has been made, more research is still needed to better understand and measure non-pathological grief and identify factors that contribute to progress and growth following bereavement.
This document discusses using expressive arts to help grieving children. It outlines the needs of grieving children, which include finding meaning, relating to the context of the death, and having support. Approaches that are useful include using symbols, art, writing, and rituals. Telling stories can help with identification, expression, conversation, and problem-solving. The document also describes Dr. Wolfelt's grief gardening model and outlines six reconciliation needs that grieving children experience. It provides examples of books that could help address each need and support healing through memory, identity, meaning, and continued support.
This document discusses the evolution of theories around continuing bonds with the deceased from ancient times to modern perspectives. It outlines how ancient cultures built monuments and engaged in rituals to maintain connections, while Freudian theory promoted severing bonds to move on. Modern research now shows that maintaining bonds can help the grieving process by allowing the relationship to transform over time rather than abruptly end. The document provides examples of how children can maintain connections and ways adults can support them.

The camp offers weekend retreats with activities, counseling sessions, and music therapy to help families and individuals process their grief together and separately. It aims to assist in healing families by providing a supportive environment where they can share experiences and participate in nurturing programming tailored for grieving families, adults, and children.
This document discusses the theory of continuing bonds, which posits that maintaining a connection to a deceased loved one is an important part of the grieving process. It provides a historical overview of how views of grief have evolved from encouraging severing bonds in the early 20th century to more modern perspectives that support ongoing connections. Research on child grief indicates that children understand death yet still seek to locate, experience, reach out to and remember the deceased through activities and objects that help them sustain the relationship.
- Sibling death has a significant impact on children and around 2 million children in the US have experienced the death of a sibling through various means such as stillbirths, newborn deaths, miscarriages.
- How a child grieves the loss of a sibling depends on factors like their age and relationship with the deceased sibling, whether the sibling's death was sudden or followed a long illness, and how involved the child was in the dying process.
- Children benefit from grief support groups with other children who lost siblings, as it allows them to openly discuss their experiences, feelings of guilt, fear, and ways to maintain a sense of ongoing connection with their deceased sibling while moving forward.
- The document discusses how grief impacts people on mental, emotional, and physical levels including feelings of disbelief, worry, sadness, anger, and physical symptoms like changes in appetite and sleep.
- It also discusses how men and women often cope with grief differently and provides tips for healthy communication within families experiencing grief.
- The risks of avoiding grief are mentioned as well as how to find balance during stressful times through focusing on what you can control.
The document discusses bereavement centers and their role in providing grief support to communities. It outlines the types of support offered, including counseling, support groups, crisis response and education programs. Funding sources and marketing strategies are also covered. The Elisabeth Severance Prentiss Bereavement Center is highlighted as an example, describing its history, mission and programs for bereaved children, families and communities in Northern Ohio.
The Center for Grieving Children has seen a dramatic increase in people seeking their services for support with grief. In the first 8 months of the current fiscal year, they have responded to as many calls as in all of the previous year. They provide direct support through various peer support programs to over 300 families each year using over 125 trained volunteers. The Center is looking to expand services to additional groups and needs more support to maintain their services as they have had to spend down reserves while keeping costs low. They receive no state or federal funding and rely on donations from generous individuals in the community.
The organization has seen an increase in demand for their peer support programs for children coping with illness and death due to the challenging times. Peer support helps breakdown isolation from loss and grief, as children who receive support are less likely to attempt suicide, abuse substances, or develop behavioral disorders. However, donations have decreased due to the economic downturn so the organization needs additional support to continue providing free services to help children through grief and prevent future problems.
The Center for Grieving Children has secured a new permanent home after a successful fundraising campaign. They must now focus on ensuring families can attend services for free. Over 300 families and 3,000 children will be supported this year through volunteers and staff. The executive director is requesting a donation to the annual fund to support the growing demand for services and ensure resources are available each year.
