Article Abstract

Hostility toward women is frequently examined as a risk factor for violence against women, but research on its antecedents is sparse. The aim of this study was to explore the developmental and psychological antecedents associated with hostility toward women in a Canadian sample of sexual aggressors of women. Drawing on Malamuth's confluence model of sexual aggression, we developed a multifactorial model of hostility toward women, using structural equation modeling. The results indicate the presence of three trajectories, all starting from childhood victimization and leading to hostility toward women, involving antisocial characteristics, emotional negativity, anxiety, and depression.

Objective: Sex specific anatomical differences may contribute to observed disparities in outcomes and suitability for endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) between men and women with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). This study aimed to assess these differences using fully automated volume segmentation (FAVS) and explore implications for EVAR suitability.

Methods: This was a retrospective, multicentre cohort study of patients undergoing elective AAA repair between 2013 and 2023 in three UK tertiary centres.

Background: The tendency to forgive is associated with traits such as agreeableness and neuroticism, mental well-being, and interpersonal functioning. Given documented associations with interpersonal conflict and aggression in borderline personality disorder (BPD), forgiveness (or, lack thereof) may be particularly relevant for BPD symptomatology but remains understudied. This study examines forgiveness in BPD compared to a heterogeneous clinical control group without personality disorder (CC), exploring its associations with aggression and interpersonal dysfunction using both direct (self-reported) and indirect (implicit) measures.

Introduction: Infertility literature has well-demonstrated the psychological burden of long-term Assisted Reproductive Technologies treatments and repeated failures, but there is a lack of studies following couples over time, starting from the beginning of the infertility/treatment path, so allowing a greater understanding of the potential outcomes couples may go through (Parenthood after Successful Treatments, PST; Parenthood by Adoption, PA; Childless still Pursuing Treatments, CPT; Childless Quitting Treatments, CQT) and, accordingly, exploring the different impact on their psychological health. This prospective study aims at assessing and comparing psychological health reported by male and female partners of infertile couples at two-time points (T1-beginning of medical treatments; T2-after 4 years), grouping them by the outcome.

Methods: Participants were 108 couples out of 115 couples undergoing infertility treatments recruited in 2018 (T1) available for the follow-up and grouped by the outcome in 2022 (T2).
