There were 3432 adolescents (ages 11-15, 49\% girls) in this study; they were from China, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, India, Japan, and the United States. Adolescents completed questionnaires on individualism and collectivism, and ratings of coping strategies and severity for public face-to-face victimization, private face-to-face victimization, public cyber victimization, and private cyber victimization. Findings revealed similarities in adolescents' coping strategies based on perceptions of severity, publicity, and medium for some coping strategies (i.e., social support seeking, retaliation) but differential associations for other coping strategies (i.e., avoidance, helplessness, ignoring). The results of this study are important for prevention and intervention efforts because they underscore the importance of teaching effective coping strategies to adolescents, and to consider how perceptions of severity, publicity, and medium might influence the implementation of these coping strategies.}, language = {en} } @article{vonKalckreuth2020, author = {von Kalckreuth, Moritz}, title = {Allt{\"a}gliche Lebenswirklichkeit und ontologische Theorie}, series = {Deutsche Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Philosophie : Zweimonatsschrift der internationalen philosophischen Forschung}, volume = {68}, journal = {Deutsche Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Philosophie : Zweimonatsschrift der internationalen philosophischen Forschung}, number = {2}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {0012-1045}, doi = {10.1515/dzph-2020-0017}, pages = {275 -- 287}, year = {2020}, abstract = {The aim of this paper is to discuss the relation between our experience in everyday life and ontological reflection. While many accounts in contemporary ontology still defend the idea that the world consists only of material objects, some new views on everyday metaphysics or social ontology which try to articulate the specific properties of the objects used and found in ordinary life have been established during the last years. In the critical ontology of Nicolai Hartmann, the social and cultural dimension of our life is situated in the sphere of spiritual being [Geistiges Sein]. By investigating the methodical relation of phenomenology and critical ontology as well as specific entities (objective spirit, cultural objects), it is established that Hartmann offers a wide and methodologically reflected view which could be able to satisfy the practical significance of these entities.}, language = {de} } @article{GodessRiccitelli2017, author = {Godess-Riccitelli, Moran}, title = {The final end of imagination}, series = {Filosofia unisinos}, volume = {18}, journal = {Filosofia unisinos}, number = {2}, publisher = {Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos}, address = {S{\~a}o Leopoldo}, issn = {1519-5023}, doi = {10.4013/fsu.2017.182.05}, pages = {107 -- 115}, year = {2017}, abstract = {One main quandary that emerges in the context of Immanuel Kant's moral ideal, The Highest Good, is that on the one hand Kant sets it as a moral demand, that is, as a principle that must be comprehended as an attainable end for man in practice while, on the other hand, it is set as a moral ideal, i.e. as something that cannot be concretized and realized within the empirical world. The main goal of this paper is to argue for the realizability of the moral ideal by means of the principle of reflective judgment as a form of judgment that in fact clarifies human limitation. I assert that the very recognition of this limitation constitutes the possibility for hope in that ideal, or for striving towards it, and that this striving is the only way that the moral ideal can be concretized. I examine man's recognition of self-limitation as a response to the moral demand to realize the moral ideal and the necessity of the power of imagination for this, used reflectively.}, language = {en} } @article{LewisWaligorska2019, author = {Lewis, Simon and Waligorska, Magdalena}, title = {Introduction: Poland's Wars of Symbols}, series = {East European Politics and Societies: and Cultures}, volume = {33}, journal = {East European Politics and Societies: and Cultures}, number = {2}, publisher = {Sage Publ.}, address = {Thousand Oaks}, issn = {0888-3254}, doi = {10.1177/0888325418821418}, pages = {423 -- 434}, year = {2019}, abstract = {This introduction to the special section on Poland's wars of symbols analyzes the symbolic contestation that has characterized the country in recent years, studying a range of phenomena including nation, gender, memory, and religious symbolism within the overall framework of political conflict. In doing so, it offers a multidisciplinary view on political fractures that have resonated throughout Europe and the "West." Overall, the four case studies in this section study ways in which national symbols, topoi, and narratives have been deployed as tools in drawing and redrawing boundaries within society, polarizing and mobilizing the political camps as well as contesting and resisting power. These studies enable us to situate recent political events in a historical perspective, mapping the rise of populism in Poland against the background of legacies specific to the East-Central European region.}, language = {en} } @article{AndersonSuzukiSwingetal.2017, author = {Anderson, Craig A. and Suzuki, Kanae and Swing, Edward L. and Groves, Christopher L. and Gentile, Douglas A. and Prot, Sara and Lam, Chun Pan and Sakamoto, Akira and Horiuchi, Yukiko and Krah{\´e}, Barbara and Jelic, Margareta and Wei Liuqing, and Toma, Roxana and Warburton, Wayne A. and Zhang, Xue-Min and Tajima, Sachi and Qing, Feng and Petrescu, Poesis}, title = {Media Violence and Other Aggression Risk Factors in Seven Nations}, series = {Personality and social psychology bulletin}, volume = {43}, journal = {Personality and social psychology bulletin}, publisher = {Sage Publ.}, address = {Thousand Oaks}, issn = {0146-1672}, doi = {10.1177/0146167217703064}, pages = {986 -- 998}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Cultural generality versus specificity of media violence effects on aggression was examined in seven countries (Australia, China, Croatia, Germany, Japan, Romania, the United States).

Across nations, exposure to violent screen media was positively associated with aggression. This effect was partially mediated by aggressive cognitions and empathy. The media violence effect on aggression remained significant even after statistically controlling a number of relevant risk and protective factors (e.g., abusive parenting, peer delinquency), and was similar in magnitude to effects of other risk factors. In support of the cumulative risk model, joint effects of different risk factors on aggressive behavior in each culture were larger than effects of any individual risk factor.}, language = {en} } @article{AmbrasatvonScheveSchauenburgetal.2016, author = {Ambrasat, Jens and von Scheve, Christian and Schauenburg, Gesche and Conrad, Markus and Schr{\"o}der, Tobias}, title = {Unpacking the Habitus: Meaning Making Across Lifestyles}, series = {Sociological Forum}, volume = {31}, journal = {Sociological Forum}, publisher = {Wiley-Blackwell}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {0884-8971}, doi = {10.1111/socf.12293}, pages = {994 -- 1017}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @article{MarfoYeboahBonku2015, author = {Marfo, Charles and Yeboah, Philomena Abeka and Bonku, Lucy}, title = {Exploiting the exploiter: some violations of society's expectations in beyond the horizon and the housemaid}, series = {3 L : language, linguistics, literature ; the Southeast Asian journal of English language studies}, volume = {21}, journal = {3 L : language, linguistics, literature ; the Southeast Asian journal of English language studies}, number = {1}, publisher = {School of Language Studies \& Linguistics, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia}, address = {Bangi}, issn = {0128-5157}, pages = {35 -- 46}, year = {2015}, abstract = {This paper does a critical reading of Beyond the Horizon and The Housemaid and observes that the author, Amma Darko, seeks primarily to challenge prevailing and traditional views of motherhood held by African societies; i.e. motherhood and its associated activities such as caring, training and disciplining. Amma Darko sharply condemns this view and calls for a critical analysis of the nature of motherhood, especially in contemporary times. Agreeing with Amma Darko and taking issues raised by her even a little further, with snippets from the books, the paper brings to the fore the fact that the prevailing and traditional views of motherhood have inherent conflict with reality. That is to say, these views are carelessly assumed as problem-free. Within this context, we also critically bring into discussion the running theme of exploiting the exploiter in the two books within the framework of gender studies and queer theory. We also generally question the fixed categories of paradigms generated by normative ideology and conclude with the realisation that almost all mothers (and, for that matter, exhibition of womanhood) in these novels failed because of the wrong choices they made, which were basically and largely fuelled by challenging economic conditions.}, language = {en} }
