性别视角的农民工收入差异及影响因素分析——基于江苏省1012名农民工的问卷调查

根据江苏省1012名农民工的问卷调查资料,从性别视角对其进行了统计分析,分析结果表明：女农民工月收入、每小时工资、收入层次分布均低于男农民工;女农民工月收入不存在代际差异和文化程度差异;第一代农民工月收入存在性别差异;从事相同职业的农民工月收入存在性别差异。通过多元回归分析发现,影响女农民工每小时收入的主要有工作、生活负担和社会因素,农民工自身因素仅对男农民工收入有影响。     

论乌热尔图小说的性别角色

鄂温克族作家乌热尔图的小说文雅纯净、古朴幽深,但充溢着“乾道”之气:男性意识强烈,女性意识淡薄,男性形象呼之欲出,女性形象深藏若虚。若从女性主义视角对其分析不难得出这样的结论:乌热尔图的小说是男性小说,他所描绘的世界是雄性的世界。因而,可以把他的小说归为男性本位文化系统。

赵健秀的华裔男性书写

如何在美国语境中确立华裔男性的身份建构，这是当代美国华裔作家赵健秀的思考重点。在重建美国华裔男性形象的过程中，赵健秀的主要贡献表现在两个方面：一是着重描写美国华裔中的父子关系，以父子关系来表现中美两种文化之间的碰撞和纠葛；二是充分刺用中国文化史上的英雄主义传统，通过对英雄主义传统的书写，寻找文化归属，确立华裔男性的身份问题。赵健秀和汤亭亭之间，不但是构成了冲突和对话，还具有互补的作用．他们的文学创作．共同书写了华裔在美国语境中的人生轨迹和文化身份。     

纳西族农村旅游经济发展与男青年消费行为——以云南省玉龙纳西族自治县海村为例

纳西族农村旅游经济的发展，客观上提高了当地村民的物质生活水平，也丰富了农村的精神生活。但是，经济收入的急剧增加和与游客形成的社会互动也是一把双刃剑，它会对当地农村男青年自我身份认同的重新建构起作用，从而使消费者社会的观念在农村男青年之中流行，影响当地农村经济和社会的可持续性发展。推动社区文化建设，重构农村生活世界的意义，社会主义新农村建设才能获得力量的源泉。     

Perceptions of Caregiving Role by Son's Caring for a Parent with Alzheimer's Disease

Abstract

In this qualitative study, 18 sons were interviewed about the factors that led them to assume the role of primary caregiver for a parent with progressive memory loss, such as Alzheimer's disease, as well as the personal challenge that they experienced in this role. The analysis demonstrated that sons experience a range of emotional reactions, personal and professional conflict, as well as learn about new roles and responsibilities as they attempt to access the needed services for their parent. Clinical recommendations for geriatric social workers are discussed.     

Childhood Sexual Abuse Profiles and Psychological Functioning in Adult Males

ABSTRACT

This study used a person-centered approach to generate profiles of males’ sexual abuse characteristics and then link profiles to other types of childhood maltreatment and adversity, and adult outcomes. Data were drawn from 215 North American males (86% Caucasian) aged 17–61 years recruited from websites offering support for sexual abuse. Latent profile analysis identified three profiles, ranging from 1–2 instances of fondling by an unfamiliar extrafamilial perpetrator to chronic, penetrative abuse by individuals within and outside the family. Profiles were labeled Severe (26%), More Severe (33%), and Most Severe (41%). Chi-squares and analysis of variance showed that men in the Most Severe profile were more likely to experience childhood emotional and physical abuse, and a greater number of non-victimization adversities, than men in the other two profiles. After controlling for multiple victimization and adversity, men in the More Severe and Most Severe profiles reported significantly greater internalizing problems than men in the Severe profile, and men in the Most Severe profile reported significantly more trauma symptoms than men in the Severe profile. While these results require replication, they suggest that treatment should be tailored to the individual needs of male survivors.     

Increased prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED): Results of the second epidemiological study on sexual activity and prevalence of ED in Thai males

Objective.?The aim of this study is to investigate changes in sexual activity and the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) in Thai males. In addition, the treatment-seeking behaviour of Thai patients suffering from ED is also investigated.

Materials and methods.?In a cross sectional study using a standardized questionnaire with a multi-stage stratified random sampling, 2,269 men aged 40–70 were interviewed. The questionnaire was designed to investigate the effects of socioeconomic factors, medical conditions and unhealthy lifestyles on the development of ED. Furthermore, the questionnaire was designed to characterize the treatment-seeking behaviour of Thai patients suffering from ED.

Results.?Compared to the first report dated the year 2000, the prevalence of ED has increased from 37.5% to 42.18%. In terms of socioeconomic factors, the highest prevalence of ED was observed among unemployed men (78.51%). Prostatism and/or prostatitis (Odd ratios (OR) = 2.02) and long histories of smoking (more than 30 years, OR = 2.36) were identified as statistically significant risk factors for ED, with p-values of <0.001. It is important to notice that 38.78% of the ED patients wanted to discuss their problem with spouses or partners. Three quarters of the ED patients (74.54%) preferred oral medication as therapy.

Conclusions.?The epidemiology of ED in Thailand is changing. An increased prevalence of ED does require further epidemiological studies on a regular basis in order to better understand the etiology of ED and look for measures (such as education) to counter the disease.
