Few studies examine the use of family history to influence risk perceptions in the African American population. This study
examined the influence of a family health history (FHH) intervention on risk perceptions for breast (BRCA), colon (CRC), and
prostate cancers (PRCA) among African Americans in Pittsburgh, PA. Participants (n = 665) completed pre- and post-surveys and FHHs. We compared their objective and perceived risks, classified as average,
moderate, or high, and examined the accuracy of risk perceptions before and after the FHH intervention. The majority of participants
had accurate risk perceptions post-FHH. Of those participants who were inaccurate pre-FHH, 43.3%, 43.8%, and 34.5% for BRCA,
CRC, and PRCA, respectively, adopted accurate risk perceptions post-FHH intervention. The intervention was successful in a
community setting. It has the potential to lead to healthy behavior modifications because participants adopted accurate risk
perceptions. We identified a substantial number of at-risk individuals who could benefit from targeted prevention strategies,
thus decreasing racial/ethnic cancer disparities. 相似文献

In this paper I argue that although the Confucian idea of 'minben' is not synonymous with democracy, some its tenets are conducive to the promotion of a regime in which citizens are politically and economically empowered. In particular, I focus on the way that Confucius, Mencius and Jia Yi stress that government should meet the basic needs of its people. Material well-being is an important precondition of democracy that is often overlooked in contemporary discussions of Chinese government, which usually focus on negative rights or the authoritarian state. 相似文献

“Upfixes” are “visual morphemes” originating in comics where an element floats above a character’s head (ex. lightbulbs or gears). We posited that, similar to constructional lexical schemas in language, upfixes use an abstract schema stored in memory, which constrains upfixes to locations above the head and requires them to “agree” with their accompanying facial expressions. We asked participants to rate and interpret both conventional and unconventional upfixes that either matched or mismatched their facial expression (Experiment 1) and/or were placed either above or beside the head (Experiment 2). Interpretations and ratings of conventionality and face–upfix matching (Experiment 1) along with overall comprehensibility (Experiment 2) suggested that both constraints operated on upfix understanding. Because these constraints modulated both conventional and unconventional upfixes, these findings support that an abstract schema stored in long-term memory allows for generalisations beyond memorised individual items. 相似文献

Likelihood ratio tests have been proposed by Wilks for testing the hypothesis of equal means, variances, and covariances (H
mvc) and the hypothesis of equal variances and covariances (H
vc) in ap-variate normal distribution. Using exact distributions of the appropriate likelihood ratio statistics, tables of the .05 and .01 points of these distributions are constructed forp = 4, 5, 6, 7 and sample sizen = 25 (5) 60 (10) 100. A correction factor is recommended for largern. Two numerical examples illustrate use of the tables. A nonparametric test is proposed forH
mvc when the multivariate parent population is known to be non-normal.This research was supported partly by the Office of Naval Research under Contract No. Nonr-855(06) and partly by the United States Air Force through the Air Force Office of Scientific Research of the Air Research and Development Command, under Contract No. 18(600)-83.

Little is known about the risky sexual behaviour, misconceptions and attitudes regarding sexuality and sexual health among
rural youth in India. In order to understand these aspects, quantitative data were collected among 1,500 rural college students
(800 male and 700 female) in the age group 15–24 years in the Thane district of Maharashtra, India, during 2004. Analysis
of variance and regression analysis were performed using the total mean score of attitude towards sexuality as the dependent
variable to determine the association and relationship, respectively, with background and familial characteristics. The results
clearly showed that the majority of the students in the study expressed conservative attitudes towards premarital sexuality.
Many students not only disagreed with casual sex but also considered it immoral. Gender bias i.e. permitting premarital sex
for males and not for females, was reflected in their attitudes to some extent. Mean score indicated that male students had
higher mean scores compared with their female counterparts and senior students compared with junior students, indicating more
liberal attitudes towards sexuality. Bivariate analysis showed positive association between age; peer interaction; erotic
exposure; habits of gutaka, tobacco, smoking and alcohol consumption; and knowledge about reproductive health issues with
attitudes towards various sexuality issues. Multivariate analysis showed that female students studying in the commerce and
science faculties were more liberal in attitude towards sexuality when compared with female students from the arts faculty.
Male students with high erotic exposure (odds ratio 2.3); habits of gutaka, tobacco, smoking and alcohol consumption (odds
ratio 2.7); and high peer interaction (odds ratio 2.3) had higher attitudinal scores indicated more liberal attitudes. Overall,
the majority of the students expressed conservative attitudes towards premarital sex. The programme on sexuality education
and responsibility for in-school adolescents should be launched early in secondary schools/college at an early stage of the
perception process and formulation of attitudes towards sexuality. This would provide students with more scientific information
and deter them from gathering incomplete information through sources such as pornography and peers. 相似文献
