- first glance to represent damage unequivocally, more careful assessment leaves these
- findings somewhat equivocal. In the case of increased cases of pregnancy among
- these girls, for example, it should be noted that over half of those who reported having
- become pregnant (and nearly half of the men who reported impregnating someone) rated
- their experience as "great" rather than "poor." Although it's true that difficulties sometimes serious problems - may attend such pregnancies in U.S. society, some data
- also imply that these difficulties have been exaggerated (Furstenberg et al., 1987;
- Stevens-Simon and White, 1991), and may frequently result more from low SES than from
- adolescent pregnancy itself (Trussell, 1988). Current treatment of teen pregnancy as
- intrinsically pathological may in part have generalized from an entire tendency to view
- Teen sexual behaviour as problematic (see Willis, 1986, for a sharply satirical
- Depiction of this inclination).
- Even findings of increased cases of STD transmission among the girls in our study
- need to be considered carefully. Symons (February 1995, private communication)
- pointed out that increased cases of STDs and pregnancy among women exposed to
- primal scenes might be more parsimoniously comprehended as reduced use of condoms
- among these women. Regardless of problematic result, decreased use of condoms may
- be inspired by heightened want (and capacity) for affair or higher levels of trust in
- partners - in addition to by simple lack of sexual obligation or self-destructive inclinations.
- In http://www.datarecoveryinfo.us/go.php?url=http://wnude.com should be remembered that there was a (nonsignificant) trend toward higher
- levels of self acceptance and enhanced relations with adults among these women.
- Path of advantageous correlates for boys, and impersonal or debatable correlates for girls.
- These interactions may be interpreted in several ways.
- that human males and females process sexuality-related occasions otherwise as the effect of
- sexually dimorphic mental mechanisms that have evolved through natural and
- Empirical evidence is consistent with
- the opinion of dimorphism in emotional mechanisms (cf. http://w.urbansprawlband.com/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=nude-beach.net , 1994; Ellis and
- Symons, 1990). Moore (1995) has proposed the possibility that these mechanisms might
- begin to appear faithfully in youth. Some evidence is, in addition, consistent with this
- suggestion (cf. Gold and Gold, 1991; Knoth et al., 1988; Rind and Tomorovich, 1997).
- Other explanations of the sex interactions are also possible. By way of example, boys and
- girls are socialized differently through the entire world where sexuality is concerned, with
- girls being socialized more restrictively (Mead, 1967). Although these socialization
- Processes may also represent expressions of sexually dimorphic mental
- adaptation by natural and sexual selection, it could be claimed that they instead represent
- temporally unique but global sociocultural or socioeconomic powers related to
- patriarchal control of female sexuality.
- A third explanation of our results is more prosaic.
- Totally artifactual statistical noise. Truly, the effect sizes are modest, and although
- interactions by sex in the same general direction were noticed for a number of the consequence
- measures, only one of these interactions reached significance after the Bonferonni
- correction, and one of them was reversed in direction - with women, but not men,
- exposed to primal scenes reporting less use of certain drugs.
- Additionally, while findings of advantageous consequences are interesting, particular findings are
- not called by any theory that we know. Hence, http://testmastersmcat.com/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=wnude.com is possibly left with what may turn
