Intrinsic Religiousness And Religious Coping As Life Stress Moderators For Catholics Versus Protestants, Lisa Smith, Crystal Park, Lawrence Cohen
Intrinsic Religiousness And Religious Coping As Life Stress Moderators For Catholics Versus Protestants, Lisa Smith, Crystal Park, Lawrence Cohen
Lisa Smith
Two prospective studies were conducted to test the stress-moderating effects of intrinsic religiousness and overall religious coping on the depression and trait anxiety of Catholic and Protestant college students. Both studies found a significant cross-sectional interaction between controllable life stress and religious coping in the prediction of Catholics' depression, with religious coping serving a protective function at a high level of controllable negative events. Both studies also found a significant prospective interaction between uncontrollable life stress and intrinsic religiousness in the prediction of Protestants' depression; the relationship between uncontrollable stress and depression was positive for low intrinsic Protestants, flat for …

Interpersonal Influence As Active Coping: Effects Of Task Difficulty On Cardiovascular Reactivity, Timothy Smith, Michael Baldwin, Alan Christensen
Alan J. Christensen
This study examined the effects of attempting social influence on cardiovascular reactivity. Subjects were randomly assigned to a noncontingent reward condition or one of three conditions in which receipt of a monetary reward was contingent on their ability to influence another individual through a persuasive communication. In the contingent conditions, the task was presented as either easy, difficult, or very difficult. Measures of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and heart rate were recorded while subjects prepared and delivered the persuasive communication (contingent conditions) or reviewed and read aloud the same statement without an incentive to influence. The contingent conditions …

This paper extends the conjectural approach in industrial organization to the analysis of imperfections in output and factor markets. Starting from the specification of a production function, the econometric analysis is based on the formulation and estimation of a simultaneous-equation model consisting of production function, first-order conditions associated with factor employment, and two conjectural elasticities to parameterize the industry's oligopoly and oligopsony equilibria. As an example, we provide and application to the U.S. meat-packing industry. Our results suggest that the industry exercises market power in both the output (meat) market and the factor (live animal) market.
Prehistoric Eye Disease (Trachoma?) In Australian Aborigines, Steve Webb
Prehistoric Eye Disease (Trachoma?) In Australian Aborigines, Steve Webb
Steve Webb
This paper discusses an as yet undescribed lesion of the orbit in Australian Aboriginal skeletal populations. The rather high frequency and geographical distribution of the lesion suggests an association with a common, chronic eye infection. Using differential diagnosis to eleminate a variety of ophthalmic conditions, it is proposed that chronic trachoma may be a possible causative agent. Distribution of the lesion follows that of trachoma among contemporary Aboriginal people, with the highest frequencies occurring in the hotter, arid portions of the Australian continent. It is positively correlated with age, with higher frequencies in older people; it is almost completely absent …

A study examines the failure of punishment to deter repeat offenders. Data were obtained from interviews with 60 incarcerated repeat property offenders. The most common responses explaining the lack of deterrent effects on their actions were: (1) They thought they would not get caught. (2) They thought that if they were caught they would be incapacitated for a relatively short time. (3) They considered prison a nonthreatening environment.
