Mindscape Volume V Progressive Education Society’s MODERN COLLEGE OF ARTS, SCIENCE AND COMMERCE Ganeshkhind, Pune-16 DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGY MINDSCAPE VOLUME V 2019-2020 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We wish to thank Dr. GAJANAN EKBOTE, Honorable Chairman, Business Council, Progressive Education Society, for his support, motivation, and encouragement. Sincere thanks to Prof. Suresh Todkar, Joint Secretary, Progressive Education Society and Chairman LMC, Prof Mrs. Jyotsana Ekbote, Joint Secretary, Progressive Education Society and Dr. Prakash Dixit, Deputy Secretary Progressive Education Society and Visitor. Our Principal Dr. Sanjay Kharat has always been a source of inspiration to us, especially in research, providing us his valuable insights and suggestions for improvement. Dr. Jyoti Gagangras, Vice-Principal, Arts Faculty, and all the other staff members of the Arts faculty have been appreciative of our efforts and we are thankful to them. All the students who have worked extremely hard to write and present the research papers and who are the stars of this compendium deserve a lot of praise. Thanks to Sheldon Fernandes and Shaantanu Kunte who helped in proof reading and Nashome Crasto for overall assistance. Dr. Sadhana Natu, Associate Professor and Head Department of Psychology 2 FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK I extend my congratulations to the Head, Faculty, and students of the Department of Psychology for putting together the Fifth Volume of their research compendium Mindscape. The topics that the students have chosen on the theme Making Psychology Deliverable to Society are so relevant and I am extremely impressed with their hard work and efforts. It is indeed interesting to read all the papers that the students have written. I am also proud that undergraduate research of this quality is being done at the college and would like to encourage many more students to participate in research. Once again, I congratulate each student for the efforts and outcome of Mindscape. I also appreciate the efforts of Dr. Sadhana Natu and all the faculty members in encouraging and mentoring the students to take up research and giving them research skills. Dr. Sanjay Kharat Principal. 3 ON THE OCCASION OF MINDSCAPE – VOLUME V In the academic year 2019-20, I have been able to curate and deliver KHOJ, a year- long research training endeavour for UG and PG students which culminates into writing abstracts and research papers. It started with ‘learning to identify, germinate and problematise research ideas, followed up with methodologies, data analysis and finally tips on research writing. These four sessions and the umpteen group and individual catching up sessions have translated into presentations in the conference and writing these research papers. This is against the background of the work of the last six years of ‘catching them young’ and facilitating the ‘research bug biting them’! My colleagues Nashome and Swati have helped and participated whole heartedly in this endeavour. This proves that we do not need a lot of people to achieve these outcomes, we just need committed people who work! This time we gave the conference at Christ University a miss after five years of selection and participation after the feedback from our students about falling standards and lack of effective organization. Our students did send abstracts to Chikitsa, Women’s Studies National Conference at SPPU and they have been included in the compendium. There was wholehearted participation in the 29th Annual Convention of National Academy of Psychology held in Pondicherry University in December 2019. The students were selected for poster as well as oral presentations. We have published abstracts as well full- length papers from NAOP convention. The wide range of topics selected, and my time spent on mentoring these students, was time well spent, since the students got tremendous response and whole- hearted appreciation in the conference. Once again, I wish to place on record that my colleague and Vice Principal, Arts Dr Jyoti Gagangras interacted with the students and appreciated their efforts in the exhibition and presentation of their posters and oral presentation that we organized in January in college. Later, Principal Dr Sanjay Kharat who has always supported KHOJ, also appreciated and praised the efforts in the felicitation program of our alumnus Dr Sachin Shinde organized by the department. We are indeed grateful to him. In this academic year we also had a research collaboration with Akash Wasil, a student at Pennsylvania State University and Harvard University USA whom Dr Sachin Shinde and I mentored. It has culminated in a research paper co authored by all three of us and which has been published in the Asian Journal of Psychiatry an Elsevier, peer reviewed journal. Our students participated and assisted in this cohort study. 4 All in all, our students are picking up several research skills as well as a multi- disciplinary perspective, both highly essential prerequisites in their further education. I am looking forward to another fruitful year of research engagement in the coming year, despite the COVID 19 Crisis that is looming large! Dr. Sadhana Natu Associate Professor and Head Department of Psychology DISCLAIMER Though the papers have research value and all the abstracts were peer reviewed for National Academy of Psychology through a process of blind review, I wish to place on record that they have not gone through a Plagiarism check and the final papers are not peer reviewed. Dr Sadhana Natu 5 A NOTE The Academic Year 2019-2020 has witnessed a boom in young researchers at the Department of Psychology. Every year the volume of Mind Scape has increased. Along with quantity there has also been a rise of the quality in research being conducted. This year many students wrote for the 28th National Academy of Psychology Conference held in December 2019 at Pondicherry University. The theme of the Conference was ‘Making Psychology Deliverable to Society’ and that spoke to many of the students as being a part of the Department of Psychology they have been exposed to Community based Psychology through the exposure given to them by Dr. Sadhana Natu. The diverse and creative topics students undertook is proof of them having internalised the efforts of the Head, Dr. Natu to introduce them to community and society-based Psychology. I congratulate Dr, Natu and all the students who wrote and presented papers at the National and International Conference. I am happy to be a part of this unique and thriving department and look forward to the next Volume of Mind Scape.

EVS was a separate subject in Indian primary education but as of 2012, NCERT has infused environmental learning into language studies and sciences so that it will not be studied only for grades. Despite this initiative, children still have inadequate exposure to ‘habitat’ and there is little active learning from the natural and social worlds around them (Sharma & Menon). Also, studies attribute the lack of motivation to bring sustainable environmental change to denial, bystander effect and a fatalistic attitude. Against this backdrop, the purpose of the current study is to introduce a form of education that will sensitize and inspire students to contribute to the environment they live in.

  • The Relationship of Gender and Perceived Sex Role Identity to the Leadership Style, Range, and Adaptability of Selected Graduate
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF James Keith Wall for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education presented on May 20, 1982 Title: The Relationship of Gender and Perceived Sex Role Identity to the Leadership Style, Range, and Adaptability of Selected Graduate Students Abstract approved: Redacted for privacy Dr. Charles Stamps This study examined the relationship and strength of association of the two independent variables of gender (male, female) and per- ceived sex role identity (masculine, androgynous, feminine, and undifferentiated) on the leadership style, leadership range (number of back-up styles), and leadership adaptability (effectiveness) of non- foreign graduate students at a Land Grant Institution. A sex role scale (The Personal Attribute Questionnaire) and a leadership scale (The Leader Effectiveness and Adaptability Descrip- tion) were administered to a randomly selected sample of 700 (350 males, 350 females) graduate students. Usable responses were obtained from 65 percent (455) of the subjects. Chi-square, Cramer's V, and lambda analyses were performed on the categorical data. A significant relationship (.05 level) and low strength of association was found between males and females and their selection of a primary leadership style and their leadership range or the number of support styles. Males tended to select an instrumental (task oriented) and females an expressive (relationship oriented) primary style and males in this study tended to utilizea broader range of back-up or support styles. No significant difference or strength of relationship was found between gender and effective- ness. In terms of perceived sex role identity alone, no significant difference or strength of relationship was found in leadership style, range, or effectiveness.

  • Gender, Racial, Ethnic, Sexual, and Class Identities
    FRABIDENTAnnu. Rev.LEITIES Psychol. 1997. 48:139–62 Copyright © 1997 by Annual Reviews Inc. All rights reserved GENDER, RACIAL, ETHNIC, SEXUAL, AND CLASS IDENTITIES Deborrah E. S. Frable Women’s Studies Program, University of Michigan, 234 West Engineering, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 KEY WORDS: gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, class, multiple social identities ABSTRACT Identity is the individual’s psychological relationship to particular social cate- gory systems. This chapter summarizes how people create and negotiate their gender, racial, ethnic, sexual, and class identities. Theories, methods, and priorities in each of these content areas differ. However, each systematically excludes particular research participants and thus ignores the complexity of people’s multiple social identities. Research suggests that gender, racial, ethnic, sexual, and class identities are fluid, multidimensional, personalized social constructions that reflect the individual’s current context and sociohistorical cohort. However, far too little empirical work captures the richly textured, theoretical conceptions of identity development, maintenance, and change. Innovative methods for assessing the content and structure of people’s identities now exist. Future research should include groups other than young children or college students; should explore functions of identity other than just self-esteem, adjustment, or well-being; and should implement methodologies that are longi- tudinal and that assess people’s many social identities.

  • The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) for a Swedish Research Context (BSRI-SE)
    Exploring the meaning of gender: Evaluating and revising the Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) for a Swedish research context (BSRI-SE) Roland S. Persson INSIKT 1999:1 Vetenskapliga rapporter från HLK Abstract This research evaluates the Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) for use in a Swedish setting, and in the process of so doing also compares the distribution of American and Swedish gender roles as elicited by the inventory. A sample of 118 individuals (48 males and 70 females) was used in order to arrive at norms better suited to a Swedish context than those provided by Bem (1974). Reliability and factor analyses were performed and a revised version of the inventory, with acceptable psychometric properties for the Swedish sample, was arrived at and termed BSRI-SE. Comparisons between the original American and the Swedish sample show that differences in the way that femininity, masculinity, androgyny and undifferentiated gender are distributed are not statistically significant. Raw score data for the BSRI-SE, as well as the scoring sheet, are provided for continued standardisation of the inventory. Methods for classification and further research are discussed. ____________________________________________________________ Field of study: Social psychology Keywords: Gender, Androgyny, Masculinity, Femininity, Psychological Measurement, Cross-cultural comparisons, Identity, Differentiation, Personality. 2 Index Introduction, 4 The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI), 8 The BSRI in a Swedish context, 17 The nature of the Swedish sample, 17 Reliability of the inventory scales, 20 Procedure for classification and standardisation, 27 The median split method, 28 The M-F Difference score, 29 Are Swedes masculine, feminine or androgynous? 32 Sex-typing in the sample subgroups, 35 Concluding remarks, 36 References, 40 Appendices I Test sheet for the BSRI-SE II Raw scores of the Swedish sample 3 Introduction Few issues in recent years have been subject to so much debate, research, exploitation and politics as have gender roles, their meaning and social impact.

  • Masculine Defaults: Identifying and Mitigating Hidden Cultural Biases
    Psychological Review © 2020 American Psychological Association 2020, Vol. 127, No. 6, 1022–1052 ISSN: 0033-295X http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/rev0000209 Masculine Defaults: Identifying and Mitigating Hidden Cultural Biases Sapna Cheryan Hazel Rose Markus University of Washington Stanford University Understanding and remedying women’s underrepresentation in majority-male fields and occupations require the recognition of a lesser-known form of cultural bias called masculine defaults. Masculine defaults exist when aspects of a culture value, reward, or regard as standard, normal, neutral, or necessary characteristics or behaviors associated with the male gender role. Although feminist theorists have previously described and analyzed masculine defaults (e.g., Bem, 1984; de Beauvoir, 1953; Gilligan, 1982; Warren, 1977), here we define masculine defaults in more detail, distinguish them from more well-researched forms of bias, and describe how they contribute to women’s underrepresentation. We additionally discuss how to counteract masculine defaults and possible challenges to addressing them. Efforts to increase women’s participation in majority-male departments and companies would benefit from identifying and counteracting masculine defaults on multiple levels of organizational culture (i.e., ideas, institutional policies, interactions, individuals).

Throughout this examination, biological, specifically chromosomal and anatomical, differences between sexes will help foster a definition of sex. Psychological theories will then be examined, calculating the psychological and social factors surrounding gender. A reevaluation of gender constructs will shed light on previously held misconceptions about gender and help lay groundwork for non-normative gender acceptance in the future.

In the present Unit, we will discuss the trends and new perspectives in contemporary times. It must be clear by now that after passing the middle of the 20th century, and moving in the 21st century, it was evident that the discipline of psychology was going through a transition. To be specific, psychology that involved identifiable and contrasting systems of psychological investigation, transformed into emphasizing on data collection, and towards the empirical roots of psychology. This transition of the universal rejection of adhering to specific systems, did not take place suddenly. Instead, there was a tendency to
