  • Early Adolescent Perceptions Regarding Sources of Sexual Health Information
    EARLY ADOLESCENT PERCEPTIONS REGARDING SOURCES OF SEXUAL HEALTH INFORMATION By KYLEA K. SHOEMAKER Ed.S., Emporia State University, 2004 M.S., Emporia State University, 2003 B.S., Emporia State University, 2002 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Therapeutic Science and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Winnie Dunn, PhD, OTR, FAOTA (Co-Chair) Jeff Radel, PhD (Co-Chair) Scott D.

Shoemaker certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: EARLY ADOLESCENT PERCEPTIONS REGARDING SOURCES OF SEXUAL HEALTH INFORMATION Winnie Dunn, PhD, OTR, FAOTA (Co-Chair) Jeff Radel, PhD (Co-Chair) July 17, 2017 Date Approved ii Abstract Early adolescence includes youth approximately 11-14 years of age. This age group represents a population open to learning more information about sexuality and signifies a developmental period where effective sexuality interventions may begin (Ott & Pfieffer, 2009; Grossman et al., 2014). Early adolescence is a critical period when adolescents’ initial views on sexuality are formed. Influencing early adolescent sexual health attitude and behaviors are many sources of information, including parents, peer groups, teachers, and media sources (Batchelor et al., 2004; Grossman et al., 2014; Sennott & Mollborn, 2011; Secor-Turner et al., 2011). Literature focusing on older adolescents (Mollborn & Sennott, 2015; Secor-Turner et al., 2011) may not adequately convey information that is relevant to early adolescents, as sexual health and informational needs may differ.

  • The 'Friend Zone': a World Away from Boyfriend-Dom
    The ‘Friend Zone’: A world away from boyfriend-dom by: Joe Guerricabeitia Introduction Male/female relationships are by their very nature complicated. The innate desires of sexuality automatically bring forth considerations of attraction and desire. Both men and women have a tendency to size-up and categorize a person almost immediately based on their own rules of attraction, often without realization. Old adages about the importance of first impressions abound and in the world of relationships (big ‘R’ or small ‘r’) these are ever important. Assessments are made and labels applied. In contemporary American society this emphasis on first impressions and compatibility has played out in the ever-popular business of speed-dating. In this burgeoning multi-million dollar business, people actually pay to spend a kwality1 2-5 minutes with a person before pushing off and moving on to the next potential match. All of this in the name of love! In this author’s opinion such frivolity abounds in the world of relationships and yet such efforts point to the overwhelming desire, and simultaneous frustration in coupling up. The richest, smartest, most attractive and most powerful people often fail in these endeavors, so ¿how can we, as the millions of twenty-something’s in American society hope to fare any better? Especially, when we have much less time, money and other resources at our disposal. If I had the answer, I wouldn’t be sitting here, writing in a windowless, cinderblock laboratory, avoiding the work before me. Instead I would be enjoying the company of someone wonderful, all the while telling the world what I knew in the hope that more people could find that which is most often described as true love2.

  • 1 Chapter Title: the Amorality of Romantic
    Chapter Title: The Amorality of Romantic Love Chapter Author: Arina Pismenny ORCID 0000-0001-8988-5121 [2021. Penultimate version of chapter in R. Fedock, M. Kühler, & R. Rosenhagen (Eds.), Love, Justice, and Autonomy: Philosophical Perspectives (pp. 23–42). Routledge. Consult published version to quote.] Abstract It has been argued that romantic love is an intrinsically moral phenomenon – a phenomenon that is directly connected to morality. The connection is elucidated in terms of reasons for love, and reasons of love. It is said that romantic love is a response to moral reasons – the moral qualities of the beloved. Additionally, the reasons that love produces are also moral in nature. Since romantic love is a response to moral qualities and a source of moral motivation, it is itself moral. This chapter aims to cast doubt on both these claims. By employing the model of emotional rationality it shows that a moralistic fallacy is committed when reasons for love are construed as moral. Reasons of love are also not essentially moral but rather of both moral and nonmoral kinds. Reasons of love are in part determined by cultural narratives and norms pertaining to love. Romantic love is not moral in nature. Morality is extrinsic to love. Keywords: morality, romantic love, emotions, rationality, reasons Introduction Philosophical discussions of romantic love1 are often concerned with its moral dimensions. Indeed, some leading accounts characterize it as an intrinsically moral phenomenon. This means either or both of two things: (1) when in love, we respond to the moral qualities of our beloveds, and (2) love is the primary motivation for treating our beloveds morally.

(Through case study presentations) Learn how to best assess and differentiate between situations that involve behaviors defined as stalking or sexual harassment, and behaviors unique to individuals with ASD due to the challenges in the area of social communication and social interaction.

Common myth and misconception “Individuals living with ASD are not interested in romantic relationships…” How do you feel about Romantic Relationships? Are romantic relationships something you have desired or picture for yourself? 1 10/10/2017 What we know about ASD and romantic relationships… Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder desire and seek relationships. Social communicational deficits often affect and pose challenges to individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder to form and maintain healthy relationships. Due to social ineptness, caused by social communication and social interaction deficits, individuals with ASD may engage in inappropriate or intrusive dating behavior as an attempt to initiate interpersonal relationships, which can lead to serious consequences (Stoke & Newton,2004).

  • Dating Advice: How to Get out of the Friend Zone
    Dating Advice: How to Get Out of the Friend Zone By Molly Jacob You go to the movies together, you grab lunch all the time, and you two know each other’s secrets. You want to take your friendship to the next level of relationships and love, but that’s all you are – just friends. Sound familiar? If so, you may be stuck in the “friend zone.” Being in the friend zone means that you are romantically interested in someone who just views you as a friend. See what dating advice Cupid has to help you get out of the friend zone! 1. Evaluate your relationship. If you two are friends, there must be a reason why you two get along. You probably have similar interests or senses of humor, so you could have a chance of finding love in your friendship. But really take a look at your friendship and figure out why your romantic interest only views you as a friend. Does he talk to you about all the other girls he finds attractive? Does she tell you in great detail about all the dates she’s been on? He or she may simply view you as a confidant, not someone they could imagine themself dating. Dating advice: show how you can be more than just a friend! Show your friend a different side of yourself; it’s always good love advice to show your best self to those you want to pursue. Related Link: When It’s Best To Keep It in the Friend Zone 2. Say how you feel.

  • Rejection Sensitivity, Aggression and Self-Confidence in the Friendzone and Other Opposite Sex Relationships Among Young Adults in India
    The International Journal of Indian Psychology ISSN 2348-5396 (Online) | ISSN: 2349-3429 (Print) Volume 8, Issue 4, Oct- Dec, 2020 DIP: 18.01.096/20200804, DOI: 10.25215/0804.096 http://www.ijip.in Research Paper Rejection sensitivity, aggression and self-confidence in the friendzone and other opposite sex relationships among young adults in India Geeta Sunkarapalli1*, Noora Khan2 ABSTRACT People are said to be put into the friendzone when they are attracted to and want to pursue a romantic relationship with a friend but this friend only wants a platonic relationship. The objective of the present study was to determine the relationship between rejection sensitivity, aggression and self-confidence for participants in different types of opposite sex relationships, viz., single; in a romantic relationship; or in the friendzone. It also aimed to discover whether any significant difference existed between gender and opposite sex relationship groups for the three dependent variables. A non-probability purposive sampling technique was employed to select a sample of 180 undergraduate students, between 18-24 years, out of whom 60 were placed in each category of relationship. The Rejection Sensitivity Questionnaire, Buss Perry Aggression Questionnaire and two sub-scales of the Personal Evaluation Inventory were used. Gender differences were found in levels of aggression and self-confidence. Participants in romantic relationships displayed significantly higher romantic self-confidence than people in the friendzone and single participants. Participants in the friendzone showed significantly higher rejection sensitivity than those in romantic relationships. Aggression displayed a significant negative relationship with either dimension of self-confidence for all three relationships.
