AI Article Synopsis

  • The study explored female health science students' perceptions of gender and attitudes towards dating violence.
  • The research involved 276 participants and utilized various scales to measure attitudes and perceptions regarding violence in dating contexts.
  • Results indicated that while gender perceptions were generally high and increased with age, the overall attitude toward dating violence was low, suggesting a need for better definitions and discussions of violence in educational settings.

Article Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the gender perception and attitude of dating violence of female undergraduate students studying in health sciences departments.

Methods: The cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on the online platform between April and May 2022 with 276 midwifery and nutrition and dietetics department students studying at the health sciences faculty of a university. The data were obtained through the "Data Collection Form", "Attitude Scales Toward Dating Violence" and "Gender Perception Scale (GPS)".

Results: It was found that the GPS total score average of female students was 102.36 ± 10.73 and was a significant difference, and the attitude of women toward psychological violence applied by women in flirting and the attitude toward psychological and physical violence applied by men in flirting were found to be positively related to the mean of total scores. It was seen that GPS and the attitude of the woman toward psychological violence applied in flirting had a negative relationship with the mean score of the total score ( < 0.05).

Conclusion: It was seen that the gender perceptions of the students who participated in the study were positively high. It was found that as the age of the students increased, their gender perceptions increased. It was seen that the average attitude of the participants to dating violence was low, which may be related to their inability to define violence. Gender equality can be adopted for students at every stage of education.

Objective: This ancillary study's purpose is to describe the relationship between dose of treatment and body mass index (BMI) outcomes in a tele-behavioral health program delivered in the IDeA States Pediatric Clinical Trials Network to children and their families living in rural communities.

Methods: Participants randomized to the intervention were able to receive 26 contact hours (15 hr of group sessions and 11 hr of individual sessions) of material focused on nutrition, physical activity, and behavioral caregiver training delivered via interactive televideo. Dose of the intervention received by child/caregiver dyads (n = 52) from rural areas was measured as contact hours.

Plasma phosphorylated tau biomarkers open unprecedented opportunities for identifying carriers of Alzheimer's disease pathophysiology in early disease stages using minimally invasive techniques. Plasma p-tau biomarkers are believed to reflect tau phosphorylation and secretion. However, it remains unclear to what extent the magnitude of plasma p-tau abnormalities reflects neuronal network disturbance in the form of cognitive impairment.
