Abstract
This paper examines the different reactions shown by men and women as they experience emotional and sexual jealousy. The paper begins with a discussion of gender differences in general as well as defining what jealousy actually is. The paper concludes that while gender does have some effect on the person's jealous reaction, social and cultural differences have a larger influence on sexual jealousy.
From the Paper
"The psychology of gender has evolved and has been modified dramatically over the past decade from descriptive cataloguing of gender-related differences and similarities to specific areas of inquiry within organized theoretical or methodological framework. Much of the history of behavioural sciences has involved the attempt to come to grips with a dilemma of gender-determined reaction to sexual and emotional infidelity."

Abstract
This paper begins by defining jealousy as a negative, complex human emotion that represents a provoked response to problems posed by real and/or perceived threats to an exclusive dyadic relationship. It is most commonly associated with long-term romantic relationships and sexual relationships. The paper then looks at the different experiences of men and women in dealing with jealousy within relationships and with other people. The paper references two theories, known as evolutionary-psychological and socio-cultural in studying and understanding this phenomenom.

Abstract
This paper discusses how sexual jealousy drives the plots of "Othello" and "The Winter's Tale". It shows how one play is a tragedy, the other a romance, or tragic-comedy, and how different genres imply different audience expectations. The paper explains how Shakespeare modifies the two jealousy plots to produce the effects aimed at in the two different kinds of plays.
From the Paper
"Sexual jealousy prevails in the romantic and yet sometimes tragic "The Winter's Tale" from beginning to end. Leontes believes his wife, Hermione has been unfaithful to him, and has her jailed. While in jail, she has a child, who he disowns and abandons in the wilderness. However, Leontes soon learns that his jealousy is not only misplaced, it is extremely costly to his family. His only son dies from grief at his mother's imprisonment, and soon Hermione is also reported dead. Leontes is so distraught, he secludes himself for sixteen years before he discovers his lost child and that Hermione is still alive. The romance ends happily, with everything right in the world again. "

Abstract
This paper explains that, before the decision was made in the Oncale vs. Sundowner Offshore Services, Inc. case, there was no clear way to deal with same-sex harassment. The author points out that, in this case, a hostile environment was defined as a derivative of physical and verbal harassment suffered by the plaintiff and perpetrated by coworkers. The paper states that studies on same-gender sexual harassment suggest male-male sexual harassment has a more severe impact upon psychological and job-related outcomes than other forms of sexual harassment.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The quid pro quo type of sexual harassment involves sexual advances that are unwelcome, physical or verbal conduct of a sexual nature, or requests for sexual favors. These actions are seen as quid pro quo harassment when (1) submission to these actions are made either explicitly or implicitly a condition of a person?s employment, or (2) submission to or denial of these actions by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting the individual. Hostile environment sexual harassment involves ?unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute "hostile environment" sexual harassment when such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment.?

Reflection
From the Paper
"The Internet provides the forum for one person to have several different sexual personas with different ages, genders, preferences and desires."
"This has held true through other readings I have done in the past. In fact, news shows are constantly broadcasting the fact that people use the internet to pretend to be something other than what they are. An extreme example is that show that sets people up with a decoy and they believe they are coming to meet a 12-year-old girl and the cameras are waiting when they arrive."
"Outside of such illegal and immoral behaviors articles have supported the idea that the Internet is an alluring sex arena because it allows participants to "try on" various personas and act out their sexual fantasies while remaining safely hidden behind invented names, genders and pictures."

Sex and Sexuality, 2005.
This paper explores the relationship between sexuality and the gender binary.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses how traditional assumptions about sexuality are rooted in the rigid concept of the gender binary. This gender binary generates and sustains an iniquitous power imbalance between the two genders. The paper explains how the gender binary, sexuality and power are so interwoven that it is hard to imagine one without the other - contrary to the general assumption that sexuality is assigned by biology. However, the paper notes that it is not a chicken-and-egg situation, for it is possible to ascertain which came first.

"Sexual Harassment and Sexual Revictimization
Background to the Study
Over the last two decades, research studies have documented significant rates of child sexual abuse among both female and male children. Estimates for female children under the age of 18 who have experienced at least one incident of abuse ranges from 1 in 4 to 1 in 2.5 among nonclinical samples (Kohn, 1987; Wyatt, 1985). Estimates for male children are approximately 1 in 8.
There are a number of effects that have been associated with childhood sexual abuse, including psychological, sexual, and interpersonal difficulties (Briere, 1992). One additional problem that has been associated with early abuse is sexual..."

Sexual Dysfunction and Perversity Regarding Emotion, 2003.
An expansive paper that looks at all issues concerned with human sexuality from neurobiological, psychological, social, and philosophical points of view.

Abstract
The types of sexual dysfunction that this paper explores are those on the psychological side of the fence. The writer presents this correlation between emotion and sexuality from the view of all the major genres of discourse; thus, the paper ranges from neurobiology to philosophy and back again. Specifically, this work is divided into four main sections that include neurobiology, psychology, social taboos, and philosophy and treatment. Moreover, the paper is an attempt to show that emotions and emotional states play a fundamental role in all functional and dysfunctional sexual relations on all levels.
From the Paper
"Of course it is first important to define exactly what we refer to when we speak of sexual dysfunction and/or perversion, and further that we distinguish the special forms of dysfunction that this paper will concern itself with. The encyclopedia Britannica defines sexual dysfunction as the inability of a person to experience sexual arousal or to achieve sexual satisfaction under appropriate circumstances, as a result of either physical disorder or, more commonly, psychological problems. This definition clearly alludes to what is considered perverse sexual behavior, which is the secondary form of dysfunction. Then sexual perversion is defined as any deviation from ?normal? sexual activity, normal in this case referring to culturally acceptable forms of sexuality (?Sexual Dysfunction?). The other feature of this definition that is important to my agenda is that it makes a clear distinction between what is considered physical and psychological sexual dysfunction. The difference between these two forms of dysfunction should be clear as the physical is an actual inability to perform sexually due to some malfunction or damage to the physical body, then the psychological refers to psychosomatic sexual disorders."

Human Sexuality and The Art of Tantric Sex, 2003.

Abstract
Tantra, a Sanskrit word, has been defined as a ?holistic wisdom link between us and the universe we inhabit.? This paper examines Tantra, its practices, methods, and origins. It also explores and determines the benefits of participating in Tantric sex, physically, emotionally and spiritually. The paper also touches briefly on different resources available to those who are interested in learning and practicing the art of Tantra.
From the Paper
"While Tantra is not a religious philosophy, it does embrace a deep understanding of life, and an ancient art of living in harmony with self, others, and the world around us. Those who practice Tantra are encouraged to treat sexual energy as an ally, rather than something whispered about and avoided. The spiritual path of Tantra says that sexual intercourse is sacred and divine, not a sin. However, Tantra does not ask its followers to repress their sexual urges in order to encounter God, but rather it supports the development of the vital sexual energy inside each individual as the means of achieving union with God."

Jealousy, 1985.

From the Paper
"This study will investigate jealousy, defining it, noting its emotional components, its causes and effects, and treatment modalities.
In a "Dear Abby" column by Abigail Van Buren, a woman wrote in saying that the man she recently married "was always jealous, but I thought he would change (after marriage). I was wrong. Although I've never given him any reason to doubt me, he checks up on my every move (Van Buren E3).
Abby suggests professional help for the man, making it clear that as much as most people appreciate "a little jealousy" on the parts of their mates to indicate "that they care," it is obvious that a little of this powerful emotion goes a long way and in its most severe form certainly does call for professional intervention."

Gender and Jealousy, 2005.
Examines traits of jealousy in both sexes and discusses the theory that men are more jealous than women.
2,400 words (approx. 9.6 pages), 11 sources, APA, $ 73.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
It has been argued by some theorists that men have evolved to be more jealous then women because jealousy promotes the male's genetic fitness. This paper first examines jealousy as a whole and its causes. Then, it examines research on the concept that men are more jealous than women and shows that, while there is evidence for this theory, there is also substantial evidence that women and men are equally jealous.
From the Paper
"Since women rely on the male to impregnate them, and since they can choose their partners, they are able to control who supplies the genetic material for their offspring. Males, however, rely on the female to reproduce. Thus, while they can have sexual relations with the female, they cannot assure that the female is not having sexual relations with another. This means that men are less able to control the passing on of genetic materials (Buss, 1996)."

Jealousy, 2004.
A discussion of jealousy as an emotion as well as a concept.

Abstract
This paper introduces, discusses, and analyzes the topic of jealousy. Specifically, it provides an extended definition of the abstract concept of jealousy.
From the Paper
"What is jealousy? Dictionary.com defines jealousy as "A jealous attitude or disposition or close vigilance." However, this succinct definition does not tell the whole story. Jealousy is much more than an attitude or disposition. For some, it is a way of life, and for others, it can consume their life, changing it forever. Take the case of California socialite Betty Broderick, who found her husband with his secretary/lover and killed them both in a jealous rage (Cupach and Spitzberg 33). Jealousy can be a dangerous emotion, but why is jealousy so emotionally charged? Usually, jealousy is a negative or passionate reaction to a situation, and that is what can make it so dangerous."

Psychiatrists' Emotional Labor, 2005.
This paper discusses emotional systems and looks at the emotional labor concerned in the work of a psychiatrist.
675 words (approx. 2.7 pages), 0 sources, $ 26.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper describes the emotional labor involved in being a psychiatrist. It takes as a starting point Hochschild's study of flight attendants, "The Managed Heart", which describes the difference between emotional labor systems and private emotional systems. The paper describes two distinct contexts of psychiatric emotional labor: diagnostic and therapeutic.
From the Paper
"From a historical perspective, the phrase "emotional labor" is strange because it suggests that things that occur naturally to us in our daily lives might constitute "work." If this is true, is our everyday eating "nutritional labor," or chatting with friends "social labor"? Yet in many fields, empathy and other proper emotional responses to others are a necessary job task to be fulfilled on demand. This demand characteristic marks the difference between labor and non-labor: labor is doing that which is required of us, whether or not we want to do it, while non-labor is doing what we want to do, whether or not we are required to."

Abstract
The paper relates that the BarOn Emotional Quotient Inventory is described as the most useful emotional quotient inventory available to date. The manufacturer describes this test as measuring an individual's ability to deal with everyday demands and pressures. The paper explains that the scales range from the identification of very high functioning individuals who have no difficulty with issues of compassion or empathy, to those who appear to have significant difficulty in harnessing emotional awareness and developing social skills. The paper discusses how the test appears to be clinically and statistically valid in identifying individual strengths and weaknesses.
Outline:
The Tool
Uses for the Tool
Theory of Emotional Intelligence From a Pathophysiologic Standpoint
Definition of Emotional Intelligence
Clinical Applications for Measures of Emotional Intelligence
Other Emotional Intelligence Scales Which are Available
Conclusion
From the Paper
"It has been the tradition in psychological assessments to often attempt to predict a clients' ability to succeed in life by evaluating cognitive ability with things like intelligence testing. As the field of psychological testing continues to become more refined, it has been noted that often times, as well as the assessment of measures of pure intelligence, it is often times useful for individuals to have their emotional intelligence measured as well. To this means, there have been developed several instruments which measure emotional intelligence. It should be noted that not all of these tests are considered to be statistically valid by researchers and still require validation."

Abstract
Emotional development in early childhood is highly complex. This paper shows that toddlers are pulling from information, emotions and abilities they learned during infancy to expand their emotional development. They are learning new emotions, learning to socialize in groups, and to develop cognitively and physically all at the same time. The paper explains that as the children enter preschool age, 4 to 5 years of age, they are developing many emotional states such as coming to realize that they have emotions that are their own. They are also learning that other people have emotions of their own as well. The paper shows that all of these developments will happen naturally in children, but parents, caretakers, and teachers are responsible for assisting children to develop to the norm.

Development of Emotion
The Emotional State of Others

From the Paper
According to Saarni, Mumme, and Campos (1998) the working definition of emotion is that it is closely linked to what a person, in this case a child is trying to do. They state a??emotion is thus the persona??s attempt or readiness to establish, maintain, or change the relation between the person and the environment or matters of significance to that person (Saarni et al., 1998 p. 238). Emotions are not random, they are manifested from events or factors as depicted in table 1.1, a recreation of Barrett and Campos as found in Saarni et al. (1998 p. 239). In this paper I will discuss the new emotions to be dealt with in early childhood, the goal of socioemotional competence, emotional conversation, and the parents or caretakers role in the emotional development of a child.
