Scope and Contents

a. Peters, F. Men, Women and Rights. This study had two specific purposes: The first was to determine the level of knowledge that educators in the four western provinces of Canada have regarding legal rights in the educational area. The second was to identify the attitudes and values that these educators had regarding rights in the educational area. b. Siann, G, Wilkerson, H, and Riley, S. New Men, Wild Men, and the Backlash. Abstract: This paper discusses the nature and the extent of the masculine backlash to the progress of women on the educational and vocational fronts through an analysis of the responses of 505 male and 556 female Scottish undergraduates… Finally the results of this survey will be related to the evidence for men’s backlash responses to women’s progress drawing on excerpts from the mass media and on recent survey data which indicate strong intergenerational differences in the extent to which backlash effects hold. c. Zawacki, K., Davis, D., and Barton. E. R. Metholodogical Suggestions for Understanding Depression as it Relates to Identity Development in Adolescence: With Possible Implications for Violence, the Self, and the Young Male. Also submitted to the Caribbean Policy Conference on Violence, Self, and the Young Male, Port of Spain, Trinidad, West Indies, May 15 – 19, 1995, with a supplemental Appendix for the Port of Spain Conference. Also see Violence, Self, and the Young Male Conference Proceedings in CMC and CMVF vertical file by the same title. Abstract: As Human /ecologists we see much similarity between girls and boys, men and women, and have notices that the U.S. economic/social systems tend to talk more about differences between women and men, which builds and reinforces polarization and conflict between genders. Thus we are really discussing anger in adolescents. In girls, anger tends to be internalized and then acted out. In boys, anger tends to be externalized and then acted out as violence on self, others, and the environment. Key constructs of elements of adolescence identity development are (1) Erickson’s psychosocial approach, (2) the developmental psychopathological approach, and (3) Bronfenbrenner’s human ecological approach… Tertiary, secondary, and primary healing strategies are also examined.
