Plastic bodies: Petra Hůlová on the Banality of Desire
The Czech novelist, playwright, and screenplay author Petra Hůlová breaks social and sexual taboos with a sense of abandon. Her female narrators’ stories unfold within historical narratives inscribed along political binaries of East and West, socialism and capitalism. This article investigates the context of Hůlová’s narrator in Umělohmotný třípokoj (2004), a novel written at the nexus of neoliberalism, postsocialism, and feminism. A sex worker’s…
Does Personality Matter? Applying Holland's Typology to Analyze Students' Self-Selection into Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Majors
This study utilized John Holland's personality typology and the Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) to examine the factors that may affect students' self-selection into science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors. Results indicated that gender, race/ethnicity, high school achievement, and personality type were statistically significant factors in increasing or decreasing a student's odds of enrolling in a STEM major. Specifi…
Revisiting Gender Variation in Training
The purposes of this current study are twofold. First, inspired by data emerging from the United Kingdom and Australia, we seek to confirm whether the incidence of training was higher for US women than for US men during the 1990s. Second, we explore the relationship between the comparatively greater incidence of training for women and occupational segregation. Our data confirm that overall levels of training participation were higher for women th…

Work history factors and due process considerations both are found to have influenced arbitral awards. Due process considerations (the degree to …
