Women’s Plasticity During Childhood and their Influence on Rape-Avoidance Behaviors
Title
Women’s Plasticity During Childhood and their Influence on Rape-Avoidance Behaviors.
Creator
Penaloza, Sammy, Bjorklund, David F., Florida Atlantic University, Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Psychology
Abstract/Description
Evolutionary theory predicts that sexual coercion and rape are likely to occur in any species in which males are more aggressive, more eager to mate, more sexually assertive, and less discriminating in choosing a mate (Thornhill & Palmer, 2000). McKibbin and Shackelford (2011) state that males of many species have evolved strategies to sexually coerce and rape females. It is for this reason that researchers have speculated that several female traits or behaviors evolved to reduce the risks of...
Show moreEvolutionary theory predicts that sexual coercion and rape are likely to occur in any species in which males are more aggressive, more eager to mate, more sexually assertive, and less discriminating in choosing a mate (Thornhill & Palmer, 2000). McKibbin and Shackelford (2011) state that males of many species have evolved strategies to sexually coerce and rape females. It is for this reason that researchers have speculated that several female traits or behaviors evolved to reduce the risks of being raped (McKibbin & Shackelford, 2011). The rationale behind the proposed experiment examined whether parents’ childrearing practices and women’s plasticity during childhood may have influenced the development of psychological mechanisms in response to the recurrent adaptive problem of rape. Analyses showed that maternal support during childhood predicted how frequently rape-avoidance behaviors were exhibited by women as adults. Analyses also showed that father absence was related to earlier sexual activity but age of menarche did not predict and was not associated with any rape-avoidance behaviors.

WOMEN'S POWER MOTIVE AND THE IMPACT ON ADMINISTRATION IN TWO LARGE SOUTH FLORIDA SCHOOL DISTRICTS

WOMEN'S POWER MOTIVE AND THE IMPACT ON ADMINISTRATION IN TWO LARGE SOUTH FLORIDA SCHOOL DISTRICTS.
Creator
BURDSALL, JEANNE R., Florida Atlantic University, Smith, Lawrence E.
Abstract/Description
There is no question that the percentage of women in administrative positions is disproportionate to the number of women who make education their career. That this number is declining is well documented. External factors blamed for this disparity are many; school board prejudices, community attitudes, and the organization of school systems, are but a few. This study is important because it investigates the intrinisic motivation of women. The question considered is, Are women motivated to seek...
Show moreThere is no question that the percentage of women in administrative positions is disproportionate to the number of women who make education their career. That this number is declining is well documented. External factors blamed for this disparity are many; school board prejudices, community attitudes, and the organization of school systems, are but a few. This study is important because it investigates the intrinisic motivation of women. The question considered is, Are women motivated to seek administrative jobs? The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between motivation and employment of women in education. The data was collected by giving David Winter's Power Motive test to both sexes of administrators and teachers. Winter's instrument assesses power motivation from stories subjects make up to describe a series of ambiguous pictures. Stories were scored using Winter's scoring system. It was determined that there was no significant difference in the power motive of men and women, whether they were teachers or administrators. There was, however, a very significant difference between the power motive scores of teachers and administrators, with teachers having a higher power motive score.

Women's rape avoidance
Title
Women's rape avoidance: an evolutionary psychological perspective.
Creator
McKibbin, William F., Charles E. Schmidt College of Science, Department of Psychology
Abstract/Description
Women have recurrently faced the adaptive problem of rape over evolutionary history. Little research has investigated the potential evolved psychological mechanisms for rape avoidance that women may possess. Here I review evolutionary perspectives on rape avoidance. I follow this review with the results of two studies conducted to design a measure of women's rape avoidance, known as the Rape Avoidance Inventory (RAI). Study 1A included 99 women who self-reported acts they do or might do...
Show moreWomen have recurrently faced the adaptive problem of rape over evolutionary history. Little research has investigated the potential evolved psychological mechanisms for rape avoidance that women may possess. Here I review evolutionary perspectives on rape avoidance. I follow this review with the results of two studies conducted to design a measure of women's rape avoidance, known as the Rape Avoidance Inventory (RAI). Study 1A included 99 women who self-reported acts they do or might do specifically to avoid being raped. Study 1B included 144 women who filled out a preliminary inventory of rape avoidance behaviors. I used their responses to construct the RAI. In Study 3, I develop and test a number of hypotheses derived from evolutionary psychological theory, using data derived from the sample of women in Study 1B. I conclude by discussing limitations and possible future directions for rape avoidance research.

Creator
Trujillo, Michelle, Sim, Gerald, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters
Abstract/Description
See Her is a found footage montage that identifies the issue of women’s representation in contemporary Hollywood film culture. It analyzes different ways that spectatorship develops through the division of the film into four sections of which three analyze film from the perspective of Laura Mulvey, Mary Ann Doane, and Linda Williams. These three sections also approach the representation of women as a sociological issue of oppression as discussed by sociologist Patricia Hill Collins. The last...
Show moreSee Her is a found footage montage that identifies the issue of women’s representation in contemporary Hollywood film culture. It analyzes different ways that spectatorship develops through the division of the film into four sections of which three analyze film from the perspective of Laura Mulvey, Mary Ann Doane, and Linda Williams. These three sections also approach the representation of women as a sociological issue of oppression as discussed by sociologist Patricia Hill Collins. The last section serves as a speculative vision of the future of female representation in Hollywood Film Culture. While this film is critical on the current state of representation, it presents hope for a more equal future.
