Socioemotional Experience and Gender Development01:30

Socioemotional Experience and Gender Development

35
Social-emotional experiences and cultural influences play significant roles in shaping gender development. During middle childhood, from ages 6 to 11, peer groups become dominant in reinforcing gender norms. Children in this age group often align with same-gender peer groups, which actively encourage behaviors that conform to traditional gender roles. For instance, boys may be discouraged from engaging in activities perceived as feminine, reinforcing culturally dictated norms about masculinity...

Obedience

32.9K
According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation,...

Parenting Styles

67
Diana Baumrind's four parenting styles — authoritarian, authoritative, neglectful, and permissive — each influence children's socio-emotional development differently.
Authoritarian Parenting
This style is strict and controlling, with little room for open dialogue. Authoritarian parents demand obedience and often enforce rules with minimal warmth. Children raised this way may lack social skills and initiative, usually comparing themselves to others unfavorably.

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.7K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Area of Science:

  • Global Health
  • Psychology
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Supportive supervision enhances mental health outcomes and job retention for mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) workers in humanitarian contexts.
  • Existing international guidelines inadequately address the impact of gender on supervision practices.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify key gender considerations in supportive supervision for MHPSS staff in humanitarian settings.
  • To explore how gender influences supervision dynamics and practices.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative interviews were conducted with 12 MHPSS staff.
  • Participants worked in diverse humanitarian contexts.

Main Results:

  • Gender in supervision is influenced by cultural, religious, and gender role factors.
  • Unequal gender distribution and inequitable opportunities were noted in MHPSS recruitment.
  • Addressing gender-based power dynamics and ensuring women's safety in supervision are critical.

Conclusions:

  • Gender significantly impacts supportive supervision within MHPSS in humanitarian contexts.
  • International guidelines should incorporate gender-specific nuances for effective supportive supervision.
  • Recommendations include addressing gender-based power dynamics and ensuring safety for all workers.
