    application/pdfThis thesis especially discusses the Princess Kayo about “The tale of Maturanomiya” The influence of story preceding and a variety of is seen in “The tale of Maturanomiya”. A forming of princess Kayo also is influenced from preceding story. The purpose of this thesis is to clear what influences forming princess Kayo and to clear what does the story try by handling her.  In this thesis, the influence of Naka no kimi at “Yoru no nezame” and Murasaki no ue at “The Tale of Genji’” pointed out first. These women was shouldering suffering. Because they have to do count on a man who has other women. The same thing can be said also to princess Kayo. Therefore, I pointed out it that she is is a successor of these women.  Though she was a successor in the one side that is certainly, the problem, that is, their “Suffer of the woman” is not made a focus. This reason is that the problem, “Suffer of the woman” changes in quality at this story. This problem do not focus in women’s mind but focuses a man who becomes dilemma among women. This story depicts a man assuming that it is cool.  The very important fact is Princess Kayo having been influenced another person is not only two people but also princess Shikishi. She was a woman of author(Fuziwara no Sadaie)’s yearning. The author had him accomplish the desire that ended in the yearning in the story in the reality. This story made situation fall in love by such a woman, and careless in woman’s feelings. In a word, this story of the man, by the man, for the man.  In the near future,I am going to think about the problem of two heroines of the remainder. I want to continue thinking about this story, to a total.departmental bulletin pape

    Archival Resources Reimagined: a Feminist Examination of the "Latin American Twentieth-century Pamphlets"

    No full text
    In this practicum report, I use the insights afforded by feminist scholarship and theory to analyze my experience examining the Latin American Twentieth-Century Pamphlets collection at Special Collections & University Archives, Rutgers University Libraries, a collection assembled by Robert Jackson Alexander, 1918-2010. I focus in Brazil and Guyana collections and identify political beliefs and perspectives that uncover different actors and forces in these two countries, acknowledging discriminatory structures or alternative accounts of history. I also examine the issue of organization and access tools in the management of archives and their usefulness to organize this type of collection. Finally, I present the insights on uncovered resources, along with my readings on the transnational dimensions of politics and ideologies in both collections as an area for a valuable intervention for archivists and librarians to undertake.This practicum report was submitted to fulfill the requirements for the M.A. degree in Women's and Gender Studies (2010).

    AFFILIATIONEXPOSURE: Stata module to compute an affiliation exposure model using two-mode actor(row)-by-event(column) network data

    No full text
    Affiliation Exposure is an exposure model for two-mode affiliation data, where actors have shared activities together and these activities expose them to certain behaviors or influence. Starting with an affiliation matrix A, a row-normalized weight matrix W is computed based on A*A', and then multiplied by the attribute vector Y. All inputs must be numeric variables (strings must be converted).affiliation data, attributes

    Application of Multinomial and Ordinal Regressions to the Data of Japanese Female Labor Market

    No full text
    This paper describes the application of ordered and unordered multinomial approaches to Japanese Female Labor Market data with the goal of examining how inter-organizational networks linking schools to large corporations supersede labor market processes in the Japanese female labor market. Two sets of response categories were used for a proportional odds model, a non-proportional odds model, and a multinomial logit model. The results from the six combinations of these models were compared in terms of their goodness of model fit. The results showed that the proportional odds assumption was weakly supported, and the Wald test indicates that the violation of proportional odds assumption seems to be limited to a single variable. My study implies that partially proportional odds model would yield a better fit to my female labor market data

    Evolution of Social Networks Among American Female Adolescents

    No full text
    This study delves into the evolution of social networks incorporating both elements of Rational Choice Theory and Feminist Theory inside a Social Network analysis. Simulated data was generated by modeling American female adolescents as an instantiation of a more general set of theoretical ideas about the formation of gendered relational patterns. This study uses the methodology of Computer Simulation to explore micro to macro mechanisms and account for how individual social actions aggregate to generate macro-level network structures. This research examines generative mechanisms and explores under what conditions some characteristics of gendered network structures emerge and are maintained through time. Three AVI files (movies of simulation demos) and a JAR (Java ARchive) of the JAVA code are also included
