In recent years, many countries have tightened the rules against harassment in the workplace and violence in the home. On the other hand, incidences of sexual harassment against women in public places have not been paid sufficient attention. Developing countries like India have recorded an increase in sexual harassment cases in public places due to the increase in participation of women in activities outside the home such as education and employment. In India, the term \"Eve-teasing\" is a euphemism for sexual harassment in public places. Eve-teasing is identified as a significant problem in the patriarchal society of India that carries dreadful implications for women. Daily encounters with sexual harassment leads to a decline in their career, socio-economic, and political opportunities. In recent years, these misdeeds have been spread to every corner of our society and have become a national problem. Eve-teasing is not considered atrocious, so strong laws have not been enacted to counteract it. This study has been conducted to identify the socio-psychological repercussions of Eve-teasing on young women cadets of the National Cadet Corps (NCC) aged between 19 and 24 years. Moreover, the significance of NCC in empowering the women cadets in dealing with daily harassment is also the focus of the investigation. Particularly, a structural feminist approach is adopted to offer a critical framework to examine the patriarchal socialization of men and women as the most common cause of Eveteasing. A total of 262 women participated in this study. The data were collected at the national camp of NCC held in New Delhi through a semi-structured questionnaire and focus group discussions from January 18-29 of 2020. Out of the total respondents, 83.20% were exposed to Eve-teasing in their lives, while 15.26% of them did not disclose public harassment. The study concludes by highlighting the negative implications of Eve-teasing on the life of young women. The respondents were the cadets of the National Cadet Corps (NCC) which helped them to shape self-confidence to fight against such sexual harassment acts; therefore, it is suggested to the governments (state and central) to emphasize the involvement of the agencies having similar goals as NCC in empowering young women and girls.

Research Framework: By limiting the number of marriages per generation, the noble families from the 17th century created a large number of single men and women. The patrilineal ideology imposed itself and set back the egalitarian impulses that animated the nobility of previous centuries. Single individuals, mostly cadets, saw their inheritance shares reduced or transformed, with the aim of leaving the family patrimony in the hands of the eldest males.Objectives : This article examines how single men and women adhere to this patrilineal ideology. By accepting the unequal inheritance order and actively participating in the financial well-being of the lineage, single men and women seem to have internalized their subordinate condition, while developing a high awareness of their role as economic pillars.Methodology: This article offers a qualitative study of single men and women born between the late 16th and the late 17th centuries, into four French noble families. The study is based on notarial sources, such as inheritance settlements, donations, marriage contracts and wills. Results: Single men and women pass on their paternal inheritance to the eldest males of the family, with the claimed goal of preserving the lineage heritage. They may also make donations and bequests to unmarried siblings or younger nephews/nieces, but these are usually life annuities or marginal inheritance.Conclusions : Single men and women put their heritage at the service of patrilineage, favouring the eldest male and participating in the compensatory system that takes care of cadet siblings, thus reducing the risk of family conflict.Contribution : This article provides an insight on the social history of French nobility and on the family history of Ancien Régime. It also sheds light on single men and women, who are still little-known individuals.

Euphoria swept Canada, and especially Ontario, with the outbreak of World War I. Young men rushed to volunteer for the Canadian Expeditionary Force, and close to 50 per cent of the half-million Canadian volunteers came from the province of Ontario. Why were people excited by the prospect of war? What popular attitudes about war had become ingrained in the society? And how had such values become so deeply rooted in a generation of young men that they would be eager to join this 'great adventure'? Historian Mark Moss seeks to answer these questions in Manliness and Militarism: Educating Young Boys in Ontario for War . By examining the cult of manliness as it developed in Victorian and Edwardian Ontario, Moss reveals a number of factors that made young men eager to prove their mettle on the battlefields of Europe. Popular juvenile literature — the books of Henty, Haggard, and Kipling, for example, and numerous magazines for boys, such as the Boy's Own Paper and Chums — glorified the military conquests of the British Empire, the bravery of military men, especially Englishmen, and the values of courage and unquestioning patriotism. Those same values were taught in the schools, on the playing fields, in cadet military drill, in the wilderness and Boy Scout movements, and even through the toys and games of young children. The lessons were taught, and learned, well. As Moss concludes: 'Even after the horrors became known, the conflict ended, and the survivors came home, manliness and militarism remained central elements of English-speaking Ontario's culture. For those too young to have served, the idea of the Great War became steeped in adventure, and many dreamed of another chance to serve. For some, the dream would become a reality.'

Aim: Smoking is one of the most significant health risk factors. Some studies have shown that the prevalence of smoking is higher in some professions (e.g. police personnal) than in the general population. The aim of the research presented in this study is to investigate the smoking habits and nicotine dependence of Hungarian trainee police officers (so-called police cadets). Methodology: A cross-sectional, questionnaire-based survey was conducted among Hungarian police cadets. The study sample (N=270) consisted of 57.4% male (n=155) and 42.6% female (n=115). Average age of cadets 21.8 years (±0.26 years, CI: 95%). The Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) was used to measure nicotine dependence among police cadets. Findings: Lifetime prevalence of smoking is 77.0% among police cadets. Females were more likely than males to have tried smoking, but the difference was not significant. (81.7% vs. 73.6%; χ²(1) = 2.50, p = 0.11, φ = 0.1). Current smoking prevalence was 35.6%, and regular (daily) smoking was 14.8%. Daily smokers scored an average of 2.57 (SD = 1.87) on the FTND scale. The average score for males was 2.6 (SD = 1.82) and for females was 2.5 (SD = 2.03), there was no significant difference (t(27) = 0.10, p = 0.91). The majority of police cadets who smoke regularly (85.0%) have very low or low nicotine dependence.

The tasks performed by police officers are unique, varied and can be performed in unexpected situations. Initial police college training is used to prepare new police officers to conduct these tasks and is known to be a time when police trainees are at an elevated risk of injury. The aim of this study was to profile injuries occurring within a national Police Force during initial training to inform injury prevention strategies. Using a retrospective cohort design, point-of-care injury data including injury body site, nature, mechanism, and the activity being performed at the time of injury were provided. A total of 564 injuries were recorded over the 22-month period, with the mean age of recruits reporting an injury being 28.83 years ± 6.9 years. The incidence of injuries ranged across training periods, from 456.25 to 3079 injuries per 1000 person-years with an overall incidence rate of 1550.15 injuries per 1000 person-years. The shoulder was the most injured site (n = 113, 20% of injuries), with sprains and strains being the most common nature of injury (n = 287, 50.9% of injuries). Muscular stress with physical exercise was the most common mechanism of injury (n = 175, 31.0% of injuries) with the activity responsible for the largest proportion of injuries being “unknown” (n = 256, 45.4% of injuries), followed by police training (n = 215, 38.1%). Injuries appear to be typically joint related—commonly the shoulder—with police training being a primary known activity at the time of injury. Prescreening protocols may be of benefit, and efforts should be made to recruit and train physically resilient trainees. Injuries, whether they occurred pre-enlistment or during training, should be fully rehabilitated prior to the individual’s commencement as a qualified officer.

C9orf72-related amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)/frontotemporal dementia (FTD) has proven difficult to model in mice. Liu et al. (2016) reported a bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgenic mouse displaying behavioural, motor and pathological abnormalities. This was followed by multiple laboratories independently refuting and confirming phenotypes. A proposed explanation centred on the use of different FVB background lines (from The Jackson Laboratory and Janvier Labs). We studied C9orf72 BAC mice on both backgrounds and found significantly elevated levels of dipeptide repeat proteins, but no evidence of a transgene-associated phenotype. We observed seizures and a gradual decline in functional performance in transgenic and non-transgenic mice, irrespective of genetic background. The phenotype was in keeping with the so-called 'space cadet syndrome'. Our findings indicate that the differences previously reported are not due to C9orf72 status and highlight the importance of using genetic backgrounds that do not confound interpretation of neurodegenerative phenotypes.

In the realm of professional military education, innovative pedagogical methodologies are pivotal for fostering strategic thinking and adaptive leadership qualities among cadets. This paper delves into the effectiveness of role-play games as a means of experiential learning within military training, with a particular emphasis on the Ukrainian defense and security sector amidst the ongoing conflict. Drawing from insights gleaned from research papers and practical applications this study examines how role-playing games intersect with cadet training. By analyzing various approaches and practical examples, we aim to illuminate the potential of role-play games in enhancing strategic mindsets and decision-making skills among future military leaders. Understanding the dynamics of incorporating role-playing into military pedagogy is crucial for optimizing the educational experience of cadets and preparing them to navigate the complexities of contemporary warfare effectively.

Physical preparation is one of the most important factors of sports training in achieving great performance. In this material, the problem of developing the skills of swimmers to improve their start with the help of plyometric exercises as well as strength circuits is studied. The experiment was carried out with performance athletes, 13-14 years old. The methodical ways related to the volume and content of the use of exercises on land and in water were established by using modern technical means of preparation, the developed method proving effective and can be applied in the training process.

This study aims to identify the influence of the head of the Character Development Center (Kapusbangkar) Leadership style on the attitudes, discipline and culture of cadets and measure the level of attitudes and discipline of cadets of the Indonesian Aviation Polytechnic Curug. This study uses a quantitative approach using a Pre-Experimental Design research design with One-Shot Case Study. The research was conducted at the Indonesian Aviation Polytechnic in Curug Regency. The population in this study amounted to 500, with a sample of 225 taken using a combined technique of purposive sampling and saturated sampling. Based on the testing and analysis that has been carried out regarding the Influence of the Leadership Style of the Head of the Character Development Center on the Attitude and Discipline of the Indonesian Aviation Polytechnic Cadets Curug with the analysis method used, namely simple regression analysis, it can be concluded that the leadership style of the capusbangkar has a positive effect on the attitude of cadets. The leadership style of the head of the centre also has a positive effect on cadets' discipline.

Law enforcement academies, designed to prepare recruits for their prospective career, represent periods of high physical and mental stress, potentially contributing to recruits’ injuries. Managing stress via monitoring training loads may mitigate injuries while ensuring adequate preparation. However, it is vital to first understand an academy’s typical training load. The aim of this study was to profile the typical training load of law enforcement recruits over the course of 22 weeks. Data were prospectively collected using global positioning system (GPS) units placed on recruits during a portion of the academy training, while a desktop analysis was retrospectively applied to six other classes. A Bland–Altman plot was conducted to assess the agreement between the two methods. A linear mixed model was conducted to analyse the difference in distances covered per week, while other variables were presented graphically. Adequate agreement between the desktop analysis and GPS units was observed. Significant differences (p-value < 0.01) in distance covered (9.64 to 11.65 km) exist between weeks during early academy stages, which coincide with increases (~6 h) in physical training. Significant decreases in distances were experienced during the last five weeks of academy training. Most acute:chronic workload ratios stayed between the proposed 0.8 to 1.3 optimal range. Results from this study indicate that large increases in training occur early in the academy, potentially influencing injuries. Utilizing a desktop analysis is a pragmatic and reliable approach for instructors to measure load.
