Different Components of Sexual Narcissism Are Differentially Associated With Specific Sexual Aggression Strategies: An Exploratory Study Among Male and Female College Students
Objectives: This study investigated whether components of sexual narcissism are associated with different types of sexual aggression (e.g., verbal pressure or force) among students because this is a prevalent problem on college campuses. Methods: College students (N = 508) were recruited for a cross-sectional online study. Results: Results showed that components of sexual narcissism were related to different strategies of sexual aggression, with …
Coherent lives: Making sense of adoptees’ experiences in education through narrative identity
Children adopted from care become part of a hidden, but no less vulnerable, group in the education system and may be overlooked for allocation of additional support and guidance. Adoption is a relatively unique experience and adds layers of complexity, difference and vulnerability to young people's lives that are poorly understood and under‐researched. Adopted adolescents face significant challenges in social, emotional and behavioural aspects of…
Ethics, autonomy, and killer drones: Can machines do right
As technology advances, machines will increasingly serve as moral arbiters of difficult and convoluted war tasks. Humanity is already in the dawn of the "Autonomous Revolution" and ethical questions and considerations regarding the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in war cannot be delayed. The use of AI-enabled weaponized drones is a microcosm of the issues that arise. The purpose of this paper is to create and sustain a discussion of the ethi…
Terror, tech, and transformation: Will emerging technologies revolutionize terrorism
Forecasts about how terrorists will utilize emerging technologies often outstrip the materialization of actual threats. The concern is not which technologies terrorists can access, but rather which will prove transformative to the terrorist cause, as the Internet has. These forecasts can be bettered through the application of an adoption model and the concept of proof of practicality. Utilizing these conceptualizations, it is possible to assess i…
The educational aspirations and psychological well-being of adopted young people in the UK
Much is hypothesised but little is known about the effects of early adversity on school experience, academic attainment and career aspiration for children and young people adopted from care. Drawing on data from Wave 1 of the Youth (10‒15 years old) Questionnaire (n = 4899) from the United Kingdom Household Longitudinal Survey (UKHLS), also known as Understanding Society, this study explored differences between young people adopted (n = 22) and a…
Resource procurement and inter‐regional connections in pre‐contact Taranaki, New Zealand: New evidence from geochemical analysis of obsidian
Early Polynesian colonists in New Zealand were quick to identify key economic resources. One such resource – obsidian – was transported widely during the early settlement phase of New Zealand. Here, we present the results of portable X‐ray fluorescence analysis of obsidian artefacts from five early settlement sites and two later sites in Taranaki on the west coast of New Zealand's North Island. Our research suggests obsidian from six source areas…
A systematic review of the school performance and behavioural and emotional adjustments of children adopted from care
Education performance for children adopted from care is worthy of serious, comprehensive and robust investigation. While there is a legal duty on local authorities in England and Wales to collate and monitor the academic achievement and attainment of looked after children, adopted children’s educational progress is not specifically scrutinised. This systematic review addresses a gap in knowledge regarding behavioural and emotional outcomes and ac…
Civic religion in late medieval Europe
This article reassesses the value of a term that has proved very durable in late medieval historiography. It identifies three main research clusters using ‘civic religion’ (North American, Francophone and Germanic), and examines inherent problems with the term, particularly its association with ‘civil religion’ and its ambiguity of meaning, at once ‘urban’ (specific to towns) and ‘municipal’ (governmental). The term has been applied particularly …
