In Australia, national tests of mathematics achievement continue showing small but consistent gender differences in favor of boys. Societal views and pressures are among the factors invoked to explain such subtle but persistent differences. In this paper we focus directly on the beliefs of the general public about students’ learning of mathematics and the role played by computers, and then we compare the findings with data previously gathered from students. Although many considered it inappropriate to differentiate between boys and girls, gender based stereotyping was still evident. Matemáticas, ordenadores en matemáticas y género: percepciones públicas en contexto En Australia, los test nacionales del logro matemático continúan mostrando pequeñas pero consistentes diferencias de género en favor de los chicos. Las presiones y visiones sociales están entre los factores invocados para explicar tales diferencias sutiles pero persistentes. En este trabajo nos centramos directamente en las creencias del público en general acerca del aprendizaje matemático de los estudiantes y del papel desempeñado por los ordenadores, y después comparamos las conclusiones con datos previamente obtenidos de los estudiantes. Aunque muchos consideran inapropiado diferenciar entre niños y niñas, todavía son evidentes estereotipos basados en el género.Handle: http://hdl.handle.net/10481/16012

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian komparasi yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan regulasi diri dalam belajar berdasarkan perbedaan kelas dan jenis kelamin. Populasi penelitian ini adalah siswa Sekolah Menengah Atas Negeri 1 Banjarmasin dan siswa Sekolah Menengah Atas Negeri 7 Banjarmasin yang diambil dengan menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Penelitian ini menggunakan alat ukur berupa skala regulasi diri dalam belajar. Hasil analisis data menggunakan Anava dua jalur menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan regulasi diri dalam belajar pada siswa kelas akselerasi dan siswa kelas reguler dan juga tidak ada perbedaan regulasi diri dalam belajar siswa berdasarkan jenis kelamin. Kata kunci: regulasi diri dalam belajar, akselerasi, reguler, jenis kelamin. This research is a comparative study that aims to determine the differences of self regulated learning based on class and gender differences . This study population is students of national high school 1 Banjarmasin and students of national high school 7 Banjarmasin that chosen purposive sampling technique . The method to collecting data is using self regulated learning scale. The results of data analysis using anova two ways has been found that no difference of self regulated learning between class acceleration and class regular and also no differences self regulated learning of students by gender. Keywords: Self Regulated Learning, Acceleration, regular, Gender.

Abstract Background Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are superior model for ocular research due to its morphological and physiological similarities with humans. Thus, the effect of four different anesthetic combinations [ketamine (10 mg/kg), ketamine + xylazine (7 + 0.6 mg/kg), zoletil (4 mg/kg), and zoletil + xylazine (4 + 0.2 mg/kg)] on intraocular pressure (IOP) was determined in cynomolgus monkeys. Results The administration of ketamine + xylazine or zoletil + xylazine resulted in lower IOP compared to ketamine or zoletil alone. Moreover, the IOP in male monkeys was higher than in females. The difference between the right and left eye was not found. Conclusions Anesthetics affected the IOP, and gender differences should be considered when measuring the IOP of nonhuman primates (NHPs).

This comparative study was adopted to compare the level of the aggression among young and adult athletes and gender differences in aggression. The subjects were N=120 (Male=66 & Female 54) athletes from the different colleges, universities and sports clubs in Faisalabad, the age range of young athletes 12 to 18 years and adult athletes age between 20 to 30 years part of the sample. Buss & Perry Aggression scale was used to measure aggression and reliability of scale (Cornbrash’s Alpha = 0.814). Results of multivariate analysis of the varia (Independent T-Test) T=9.02 p<0.03 Percent shows the difference between young and adults’ athletes’ aggressive behavior, Male athlete score high on the aggression scale rather than female. There is the significant aggression difference between male and female athletes in sports. Male athletes are more aggressive as compare female athletes (T=9.86, P<0.02) in aggression.

Summary: Hare's Psychopathy Checklist - Revised (PCL-R; Hare, 1991 ) was originally constructed for use among males in correctional and forensic settings. In this study, the PCL-R protocols of 36 matched pairs of female and male violent offenders were examined with respect to gender differences. The results indicated a few significant differences. By means of discriminant analysis, male Ss were distinguished from their female counterparts through their relatively higher scores on “callous/lack of empathy” (item 8) and “juvenile delinquency” (item 18), whereas the female Ss scored relatively higher on “promiscuous sexual behavior” (item 11). Some sources of bias and possible implications are discussed.
