Neutral facial expression recognition and racial bias against African Americans among Caucasian college students
No full textThis descriptive comparative study explored the relationship between neutral facial expression recognition and racial bias. The researcher obtained a convenience sample of 99 participants (42 men, 57 women) from a private university in the Midwestern United States. Participants\u27 ages ranged from 18 to 39 years old (M =22.07, SD =4.18). Sixty participants identified themselves as Caucasian/White and 39 participants identified themselves as African American/Black. Participants completed a facial expression recognition measurement, the Symbolic Racism 2000 Scale (Henry & Sears, 2002), and a demographic survey. The researcher hypothesized that Caucasian participants would rate the neutral facial expressions of African American men as more negative than the neutral facial expressions of Caucasian men. The researcher further hypothesized that a negative correlation exists between neutral facial expression recognition and racial bias. The results of the study did not support the researcher\u27s hypotheses

Gender perceptions of the effects of combat-related posttraumatic stress disorder on quality of life and martial relations of combat veterans and their spouse/partners.
No full textResearch has shown that combat-related Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has significant interpersonal effects upon the veteran and his or her spouse/partner. The present study examined gender perceptions of eighty-five randomly selected participants, who were asked to read three scenarios depicting increasing levels of combat-related traumatic stress. Participants then answered questions relating to their individual perception of the effects of the traumatic incident upon the veteran\u27s quality of life, spouse\u27s quality of life, and the quality of marital relations. Participant perceptions were expected to be significantly affected by participant\u27s gender. The results revealed that gender had a significant impact on participants\u27 perceptions regarding the quality of life for the veteran at a mild level of traumatic exposure, but did not reveal any additional impact. The findings suggest important implications for mental health professionals, teachers, and law enforcement, who deal with the personal and interpersonal effects of combat related PTSD
