Beyond Dadt repeal: Transgender evolution within the U.S. military
We present a revelatory case study that investigated the effects of an open gender transition within a U.S. military organization. The research subject, a retired military officer and civil servant, made an open gender transition while remaining in the same job with the same chain of command and within the same organization. Relying on extensive interview data, we analyze the effect of how an open gender transition impacted an active-duty militar…

Transgender Military Personnel in the Post-Dadt Repeal Era: A Phenomenological Study
This study is the first to systematically inquire into the lives of transgender men and women currently serving across the branches of the US military in the post-'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' (DADT) repeal era. We employed an interview protocol from a stratified convenience sample ( n = 14) of clandestinely serving active duty, guard and reserve military members from the US Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps who self-identified as transgender or …

Policy and Paradox: Grounded Theory at the Moment of Dadt Repeal
Through a mixed-methods approach of oral history and grounded theory, we report on a study investigating the effects of the U.S. military's Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy on active-duty service members at the moment of transition to open service. A stratified, snowball sample of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBQ) service members (n = 17) from across all branches of the armed services were interviewed within two weeks of repeal (September 20, …

Proposal of a four-dimensional model of social response
Descriptive models of social response attempt to identify the conceptual dimensions necessary to define and distinguish various types of influence. Building on previous approaches, the authors propose a new response model and demonstrate that a minimum of 4 dimensions is necessary to adequately provide for such influence phenomena as conformity, minority influence, compliance, contagion, independence, and anticonformity in a single model. In addi…
Child Labor, Trade and Investment: Toward the Harmonization of International Law
Growing awareness of the economic exploitation of millions of children around the world has catapulted the issue of child labor into the public eye and brought it to the forefront of debate within governments, international organizations and the business sector. Arousing diverse interests, the debate juxtaposes the multilateral trade regime with international law governing labor standards and human rights. Each of the charters establishing the pr…

A Proposed Category for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM): Pervasive Labeling Disorder
The purpose of this essay is to propose a new diagnostic category for inclusion in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual ofMental Disorders, better known as the DSM. As noted in a recent edition (American Psychiatric Association, 1987), the DSM should be viewed as “only one still frame in the ongoing process of attempting to better understand mental disorders.” The category proposed here represents a significant…
Radio psychology talk show hosts: Assessment of counseling style
Radio psychology talk show hosts' responses were analyzed using the 14-category Hill Counselor Verbal Response Category System (HCVRCS) and then compared with the verbal behaviors of other professional and non- professional helpers, including Carl Rogers, Fritz Perls, Albert Ellis, family practice lawyers, and mutual-help group leaders. Radio hosts tended to be active and directive in their verbal behaviors, offering primarily advice and informat…
The French and Spanish Popular Fronts: Comparative Perspectives
The menace of triumphant Nazism and fascism across Europe in the 1930s drove the left into unity with liberals, in order to make common cause against the extremist right. Popular Front initiatives were a significant attempt to bar the way to further fascist victories. This collection of essays focuses specifically on France and Spain as the only two countries where Popular Front coalitions won political power through the ballot box. From a compar…
An Empirical Investigation of Role Schemata: Occupations and Personality Characteristics
This study concerned the nature of stereotyping of occupational role information. The sample ( N = 110; 56 women, 54 men) ranged in age from 15 to 71 yr. ( M = 31 yr.). Subjects were asked to rate the extent to which 12 personality characteristics (introverted/extraverted, leader/follower, cold/warm, idealistic/realistic, competitive/cooperative, concerned with self/concerned with others, generous/greedy, high-strung/relaxed, honest/dishonest, fe…

Relationship between Neuroticism and Circadian Rhythms
Investigations have explored relationships between morningness-eveningness and different personality traits (1 , 2, 4, 6, 8 ) . While trends were noted linking extraversion to eveningness and introversion to morningness, results were nonsignificant. Levy ( 7 ) found significant differences on optimism and pessimism, with evening types more pessimistic than morning types. It was hypothesized here that evening types, scoring higher than morning typ…

A 16-item scale to measure optimism-pessimism was developed and administered to 160 subjects to investigate differences in personality traits as related to circadian rhythm functioning.
