The benign online disinhibition effect
The current study, which focuses on the benign effects of disinhibition, was designed as a continuation of an earlier study conducted on the toxic effects of online disinhibition (Lapidot-Lefler & Barak, 2012). Using a factorial design, the study examined the effects of three online situational factors—anonymity, invisibility, and lack of eye contact—on inducing self-disclosure and prosocial behaviors as expressions of benign online disinhibition…

The current study provides a unique view of the ongoing bond which is maintained by the bereaved with the deceased; the characteristics of this bond are examined. The narratives of nine bereaved Israel…
The Effects on Juveniles of Being Used for Pornography and Prostitution
As readers of this volume are aware, many social scientists are concerned about the proliferation of pornography in our society and about its presumed negative effects. Reflecting these concerns, this chapter reviews some of the evidence—pro and con—regarding the prevalence and effects of pornography. We consider social policy options for dealing with possible negative effects of pornographic material, and we propose a school-based sex education …

Degree and Reciprocity of Self-Disclosure in Online Forums
Cyberspace has become a common social environment in which people interact and operate in many ways. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the occurrence and reciprocity of self-disclosure, two subjects that are extensively studied in face-to-face interactions but only to a limited degree in virtual, computer-mediated, textual communication. Data was based on 240 first messages in a thread, sampled in equal numbers from six Internet…
Sexual Harassment on the Internet
Sexual harassment offline is a well-known, highly prevalent, extensively investigated, and intensively treated social problem. An accepted model classifies sexual harassment behaviors into the categories of gender harassment, unwanted sexual attention, and sexual coercion. Theory and research show that sexual harassment behavior occurs as a product of person · situation characteristics and has substantial personal and organizational costs. This a…
Toward an internet‐driven, theoretically‐based, innovative approach to sex education
Sex education is aimed at equipping individuals with sex‐related information, motivation, and behavioral skills that will enable them to avoid sex‐related problems and to achieve sexual well‐being. Existing sex education programs are generally delivered via relatively passive classroom‐based pedagogical techniques and are questionably effective in achieving their aims. The current discussion calls for the development of an Internet‐based, theoret…
Internet pornography
Spectacular growth in availability of sexually explicit material on the Internet challenges sexual science to study antecedents and consequences of experience with such content. The current analysis attempts to provide a conceptual and empirical context for emerging work in this area. Our discussion begins with a summary of some of what has been learned from existing research concerning sexually explicit materials in contexts other than the Inter…
Counseling Psychology in Israel
This article discusses the status of counseling psychology in Israel in the context of its unique characteristics. Despite the respected status of psychology as a profession in Israel and its overall acceptance and involvement in numerous social issues, counseling psychology as a separate specialty is nonexistent, especially because of resistance to the clinical psychology specialty. In addition to general subjects where counseling may be applied…
Forming Clinical Impressions during the First Five Minutes of the Counseling Interview
The influence of earlier formed clinical impressions of the client on later judgments within a counseling session were examined. It was predicted that redundancy in judgments of counselors' clinical impressions of the client after 5 min. and after 30 min. of an interview would be greater for counselor-trainees who are (a) more self-confident about their judgments and (b) lower in cognitive complexity, than other counselor-trainees. A stimulus tap…

Effects of Verbal and Vocal Cues of Counselor Self-Confidence on Clients' Perceptions
The authors found that vocal-but not verbal-cues of counselor self-confidence were related to client perceptions of expertness, attractiveness, trustworthiness, and associated satisfaction
Comparative Perceptions of Practicum Counselor Behavior
Nineteen counseling interviews were rated by the respective clients, counselors, and supervisors on the Counselor Rating Form; these ratings of perceived counselor expertness, attractiveness, and trustworthiness were compared in a repeated measures analysis of variance. Results indicated that all three sources of perceptions were similar, although counselors rated their own behavior as significantly less expert than their clients. The article dis…
Multidimensional perception of counselor behavior.
This study investigated Strong's prediction of the existence of three dimensions of perceived counselor behavior—expertness, attractiveness, and trustworthiness. Films of interviews given by Rogers, Ellis, and Perls were watched by 202 subjects, who rated each counselor on 36 bipolar scales. The ratings were then factor analyzed separately for each counselor. Results supported the existence of the hypothesized dimensions for Rogers and Perls but …
A Cross-Cultural Comparison of the Structure of Vocational Interests
Cole and Hanson (1971) and Edwards and Whitney (1972) analyzed responses of American Ss to several interest inventories. They found the occupational fields to have the following circular configuration in terms of Holland's (1966) classification of occupations: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprise, and Conventional. Two interest inventories were constructed on the basis of Roe's (1956) classification of occupations and were admin…
