The article examines the relationship between freedom, guilt and responsibility in Dostojewski’s and Sartre’s works. Both attribute a great measure of personal freedom to man. Therefore, they do not tolerate excuses. Whoever is free, carries responsibility and gets caught up in guilt. Dostojewski’s focus is mainly on guilt, Sartre’s is on responsibility. They share the conviction that we can delegate responsibility for our actions or our way of living neither to a whole, of which we are a part, like society (the ,milieu'), nor to a part, for which we are the whole, like the ,brain' or the ,genes'. In that sense, Dostojewski’s and Sartre’s attempts at an ethic of responsibility also offer convincing arguments against determinism.

This study evaluated the relationship between cross-cultural social adaptation and overseas life satisfaction among Chinese medical aid team members (CMATMs) in Africa. A revised Chinese version of the Sociocultural Adaptation Scale (CSCAS) was used to measure participants’ cross-cultural social adaptation. The self-designed survey of the CMATMs’ overseas life satisfaction includes the following five aspects: food, housing, transportation, entertainment, and security. Electronic questionnaires were distributed non-randomly. Linear regression models were established to explore the association between cross-cultural social adaptation and all dimensions of overseas life satisfaction. After adjusting all the confounders, compared with moderate adaptation, poor adaptation was negatively correlated with all dimensions of overseas life satisfaction (B for food = −0.71, B for housing = −0.76, B for transportation = −0.70, B for entertainment = −0.53, B for security = −0.81, B for overall satisfaction = −0.71, all p < 0.001), whereas good adaptation was positively associated with all dimensions of overseas life satisfaction (B for food = 1.23, B for housing = 1.00, B for transportation = 0.84, B for entertainment = 0.84, B for security = 0.76, B for overall life satisfaction = 0.94, all p < 0.001). This study shows that a better cross-cultural social adaptation was positively connected to a higher level of overseas life satisfaction in general, and more specifically to higher levels of satisfaction with food, housing, transportation, entertainment, and security. This knowledge can be utilized in promoting cross-cultural social adaptation and overseas life satisfaction among CMATMs in Africa.

To clarify the relationship between dominance status and frequency of specific sub-classes of agonistic behavior in response to foot shock, 30 mice were selected on the basis of high- or low-dominance status and paired in a foot-shock situation. Dominant pairs exhibit a high frequency of defensive behavior patterns whereas submissive pairs exhibit a very low frequency of defensive patterns.

The current status of humpback whales in waters off Ogasawara and Okinawa islands, Japan, and the relationship of these populations to each other and to humpback whales in the central-eastern North Pacific were investigated. Fluke-identification photographs collected from 1987 to 1990 were analyzed to estimate abundance and determine individual behavior patterns, and were compared with humpback photoidentifications from other regions. In total, 177 humpbacks were identified. At the end of the study period the rate of discovery of "new" whales was still high, suggesting a substantially larger overall population. Whales were commonly sighted throughout the Ogasawara archipelago from December to May, and were present during the same period near the Kerama Islands, Okinawa. Humpback whales were not regularly seen near Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands, or near Kenting, Taiwan. Repeat sightings of individuals indicate that some whales were present for extended periods off Ogasawara. The predominant behavior patterns were those related to calving and mating. Two whales were identified in both the Okinawa and Ogasawara regions in different years, suggesting that both regions are used by the same population. Identification of one whale in both Japan and Hawaii (reported elsewhere) indicates the potential for mixing of western and eastern North Pacific humpback populations; the overall matching effort to date suggests that this interchange is relatively small.

Two principal component analyses of anxiety were undertaken investigating two strains of mice (ABP/Le and C57BL/6ByJ) in two different experiments, both classical tests for assessing anxiety in rodents. The elevated plus-maze and staircase were used for the first experiment, and a free exploratory paradigm and light-dark discrimination were used for the second. The components in the analyses produced definitions of four fundamental behavior patterns: novelty-induced anxiety, general activity, exploratory behavior, and decision making. We also noted that the anxious phenotype was determined by both strain and experimental procedure. The relationship between behavior patterns and the use of specific tests plus links with the genetic background are discussed.

Introduction: The worldchr('39')s elderly population is growing. Considering the importance of aging in place and the influence of it on lifestyle, this study investigates the relationship between place attachment and social functioning in the elderly. Method: This is a descriptive-analytical study. The study population included 400 elderly people in Tehran who were selected through Quota sampling. The data were collected through Place Attachment Scale and Social adaptation self-evaluation scale. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 22. Results: The participants consisted of 234 males (58.5%) and 166 females (41.5%). Their mean age was 66.31 ± 6 6.78 years. Dimensions of place identity (P < 0.001 and β = 0.23), place dependence (P = 0.001 and β = 0.17) and social relationships in neighborhoods (P = 0.001 and β = 0.19) explain dimensions of social function: the quality of activities and place dependence (β = 0.31, P < 0.001) and social relationships in neighborhoods (β = 0.22, P < 0.001) explain the relationships quality. Conclusion: According to the findings, place attachment is able to explain social function.

Abstract: Various drastic and sudden changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have an impact on economic and social implications that affect various aspects of life, including life in the family. Increased social tensions arise in line with economic imbalances and self-isolation as a result of the pandemic, so that it has the potential to create ideal conditions involving Domestic Violence (KDRT) against children by parents. This study sought to monitor this potential by using a survey-based study to determine the relationship between parental experience (n=150) with increased social tension and risky behavior patterns towards children. The results obtained will be analyzed contextually with existing research, namely regarding the factors of Domestic Violence (KDRT) against children. The results obtained indicate a relationship between social tension and risky behavior of parents towards their children.   Keywords: Pandemic, domestic violence, social tension Abstract: Berbagai perubahan drastis dan mendadak yang diakibatkan oleh pandemi COVID-19 berdampak pada implikasi ekonomi dan sosial yang mempengaruhi beragam aspek kehidupan, termasuk kehidupan dalam keluarga. Peningkatan ketegangan sosial muncul sejalan dengan adanya ketidakseimbangan ekonomi dan isolasi diri yang merupakan dampak dari pandemi, sehingga berpotensi untuk menciptakan kondisi ideal yang melibatkan Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga (KDRT) terhadap anak oleh orang tua. Penelitian ini berusaha mengawasi potensi terjadinya hal tersebut dengan menggunakan studi berbasis survei untuk menentukan hubungan antara pengalaman orang tua (n=150) dengan peningkatan ketegangan sosial dan pola perilaku beresiko terhadap anak. Hasil yang didapatkan akan dianalisis secara kontekstual dengan penelitian yang telah ada, yaitu mengenai faktor-faktor Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga (KDRT) terhadap anak. Hasil temuan yang didapatkan menunjukkan adanya hubungan antara ketegangan sosial dan perilaku berisiko orang tua terhadap anak.   Kata Kunci: Pandemi, KDRT, ketegangan sosial

Achieving constructive relationship connections is an important step as an objective of positive psychology. In the context of a culture of dissolution in close relationships, minding serves as an antidote to the demise of feelings of closeness overtime. In this paper, we argue that minding the close relationship is a powerful pathway to developing and enhancing closeness. Minding is a combination of thought and behavior patterns that interact to create stability and feelings of closeness. Minding is formally defined as a reciprocal knowing process that occurs nonstop throughout the history of the relationship and that involves a complex package of interrelated thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The components of minding are knowing and being known, achieved through reciprocal self-disclosure; attribution that is realistic about causality, but that also gives one's partner the benefit of doubt in questionable circumstances; acceptance of what one discovers in the knowing process and respect for one's partner revealed in this process; and reciprocity and continuity. The final component emphasizes the fact that minding must be done by both partners and that it is a never-ending process. The paper also describes other contemporary conceptions to which minding is closely related and addresses future direction for research on the minding process.
