▼ The effects of violent video game play on hostility and support for violence are unclear. Previous studies have shown increases, decreases or no effect at all. At the time of the first study (2007) it was unclear if attitudes and opinions within a game persisted after game play. Also unknown was how long any such effects would last, and if they would be affected by using embodied versus conventional controls in the game. 3 experiments were run on university students to investigate these points. It was hypothesised that violent play would increase hostility and support for violence, and that these effects would be short term and increased by the use of embodied controls. Study 1 investigated whether attitudes and opinions persisted immediately after game play by having participants play either a nonviolent or violent version of a computer game and then measuring their support for violence. The hypothesis was tentatively supported in males, who showed higher support for violence in the violent version group. Study 2 aimed to pilot a behavioural measure of hostility to be used in Study 3 by having participants watch either a non-violent (non-violent group) or violent clip (violent group) before completing the behavioural measure and the violence questionnaire used in Study 1. The hypothesis was not well supported in that the attitudinal scores were almost equal. However, the expected trend occurred in the behavioural measure. Study 3 investigated how long the effects on hostility and support for violence would last, and if they were affected by the use of embodied versus conventional controls. Participants played a non-violent and violent game on either the Playstation 2 or Nintendo Wii. Violent play did not increase support for violence and hostile decision making, it marginally decreased them. Also, the participants' responses did not completely return to baseline after 24 hours. Lastly, embodied controls were not found to have a greater effect on support for violence. Therefore, the 3 predictions of this study were not supported. Overall, the central tenet that video games can affect players' attitudes, opinions, cognition and behaviour post play and that this will be especially true in games wherein an in-game character mimics the physical actions of the player is not well supported.

▼ This study examined treatment response and participant characteristics amongst substance misusing clients of a Cape Town low-cost out-patient treatment programme.A theory-based approach to the evaluation was used and substance use outcomes of participants were measured over the three time periods of admission, 6- weeks postadmission (immediately after the intervention) and 10-weeks post-admission as were elements of the Centre's causal chain mechanism: Relationships between the domains of motivation (comprising the three sub-scales of Recognition, Taking Steps and Ambivalence), drug-taking confidence (self-efficacy), Alcoholics/Narcotics Anonymous affiliation and previous clean time against levels of substance use and severity of dependence at each time point were measured. Substance use and levels of severity of dependence should decline over time. As Self-Efficacy, Taking Steps and NA/AA Affiliation scores increase, so substance use levels and levels of severity of dependence should decrease. Higher scores of Recognition and Ambivalence should be associated with higher levels of substance use and severity of dependence. Forty seven percent of participants reported abstinence of all substances at 10-week follow-up and a further 13% abstained from all substances with the exception of alcohol which they had used only once or twice. Reductions in use of individual substances were high: 95% of participants who, on admission, reported use of methaquolone (mandrax), 89% of heroin users, 84% of cocaine users and 73% of methamphetamine users reported abstinence of those drugs at 10-week follow-up. Self-Efficacy and Taking Steps scores significantly increased over time and were also significantly associated with reduction in substance use and severity of dependence. Higher Recognition scores were significantly associated with higher levels of substance use at admission and 10-week follow-up. There was an inverse association between amount of exposure to the treatment programme and levels of substance abuse and severity of dependence. NA/AA affiliation was low at all time points and did not appear to be associated with reductions in substance use. As substance use and substance dependence significantly decreased and as measurable elements in the chain of causal mechanisms changed over time consistent with programme causal theory, and as the change in those elements impacted on levels of substance use in a significant way, it can be tentatively suggested that there was a treatment programme effect.

▼ Previous research has shown that stress affects processing in many different memory systems. This study aimed to investigate the effects of acute psychosocial stress on declarative memory (DM) and working memory (WM) performance, and to explore whether sex differences exist under stress in these two memory systems. DM was assessed using cued recall and recognition of a verbal paired-associates list. WM was assessed using an n-back test with various difficulty levels. One hundred (42 males) undergraduate psychology students from the University of Cape Town were recruited. Phase of menstrual cycle and oral contraceptive use were controlled for in female participants. Participants took part in two sessions, 24 hours apart, each beginning after 16h00. Day 1 involved learning and immediate cued recall of the word pairs, and completing a practice n-back protocol. During Day 2, 45 participants were exposed to a psychosocial stressor and 41 were exposed to a relaxation period. Physiological and self-report measures of stress were taken at three intervals pre- and post-experimental manipulation. Participants then completed delayed cued recall and recognition tests for the previously-learned word pairs, and the full version of the n-back test. Data were analysed only for participants characterised as 'cortisol responders' following the experimental manipulation. The final sample included 57 participants (30 males). With regard to DM, stress did not affect either delayed cued recall or recognition performance in either men or women. With regard to WM, stress negatively affected accuracy among men, but not women. These results are largely consistent with previous literature, but also elucidate a sex difference in working memory performance under stress (viz., while men's performance is negatively affected by stress, women show improved performance). The study provides important evidence for sex differences in WM performance under stress, and highlights several methodological issues that should be addressed in future studies.

▼ The use of language is significant in co-constructing reality. This highlights the way that speakers relate to each other through talk with the available discursive positionings in a specific context. An institutional context with particular asymmetrical relations introduces how the construction of reality is an area accessible to explore the use of language in maintaining and creating power relations. This research study explores institutional talk through conversation analysis. The focus is on asymmetrical working relations in medical settings. This considers the implications on individuals with a differentiating status with how power is managed in conversations. Nurses and doctors represent asymmetrical relations and their conversations illustrate differences in the way that language creates reality in a medical context, in this case a public teaching hospital in South Africa. Nurses and doctors were recorded during ward rounds, which spanned 22 hours of audio recordings. Approximately 40 ward rounds were followed where both a doctor and nurse were present. Ward rounds provided an opportunity to capture nurse-doctor conversations. The recordings were supplemented by ethnographic data that focused on the management of power. This focus is both at an individual interactional level and at a broader institutional level. Thus, showing how language coincides with the predominant subject positions available in a medical institution. The findings show how doctors do power overtly through various ways of speaking which show leadership in interactions. The findings also show how a doctor's subjectivity relates to qualities that continually build superiority in interactions. Nurses, on the other hand, manage power indirectly, by negotiating agency while enacting a passive actor role in conversations. Both doctors and nurses manage power and assertiveness, but continually show the sensitivity embedded in orienting themselves to one another. This aids in showing speaker support and is especially important for nurses, who are in a lower status, for managing their position in relation to doctors.

▼ Despite the fact that some of the highest rates of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs) in the world have been reported in the Western Cape of South Africa, little research looks at the experiences of pregnant women who consume alcohol and what influences their alcohol use. Gaining insight into the social, psychological and contextual processes that contribute to risky drinking during pregnancy will help in guiding interventions that aim to prevent prenatal alcohol use, thereby preventing the occurrence of FASDs. Using both social representation theory and a discourse analytic approach, fourteen narrative episodic interviews were conducted in a Western Cape community with women who consumed alcohol during their pregnancy, and two focus group discussions with 13 members of the pregnant women’s community. Data collection aimed to elicit how these women and community members constructed and made sense of alcohol use. The interview and focus group data was analysed using thematic decomposition analysis. Alcohol use was represented by many participants as a social activity which was heavily influenced by their peers. Implicit in this representation was the notion that heavy drinking was a norm within this study community and offered one of the only ways in which to socialise. However, some participants also represented alcohol use as an individualised activity by constructing a clear boundary between drinking socially with friends and drinking to become inebriated. Although drinking during pregnancy was represented as a stigmatised activity, it was also understood by the pregnant women and community members as a way of dealing and coping with difficult domestic problems, such as infidelity. Furthermore, it was also represented as contributing to problems in the participants’ lives as well as unwanted changes in their behaviour. For some interview participants the problems they faced, reservations they held about their pregnancy and becoming a mother, and the social nature of drinking in their community may have inhibited their ability to stop drinking during their pregnancy. For other participants access to some form of social support, a level of responsibility-taking and a desire to protect the fetus from harm as well as care for and look after their children seemed to contribute to their ability to give up drinking while pregnant. Future interventions should take the social context of alcohol use into account, and rather than ignoring it – as most interventions do – use it to not only shift the social norms that surround heavy alcohol use, but also to support pregnant women to stop drinking. Prevention and intervention initiatives should also take a non-judgemental and supportive approach that focuses on capitalising on the moment of pregnancy and on teaching psychosocial skills that enable pregnant women to manage their problems effectively.

▼ The Boston Naming Test (BNT) is a popular confrontation naming test that is frequently used in the detection of naming deficits in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the test may not be appropriate when used outside of North America due to the influence of varying word frequency and familiarity between different cultures and languages. This study investigated the diagnostic validity of a South African 15-item adaption of the BNT (the BNT-SA-SF) in a Cape Town memory clinic population of patients with dementia and healthy, community-dwelling control participants. Between-groups comparisons, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses, and other diagnostic efficiency statistics were used to assess the test's discriminative capacity between patients with AD (n = 46), patients with other types of dementia (n = 23), and controls (n = 51), matched on key demographic variables. The AD group performed worse than patients with other types of dementia and controls on the BNT-SA-SF, and patients with other types of dementia scored more poorly than controls. The test showed the most significant discriminative capacity between patients with AD and controls, however. A general linear model examining the effects of socio-demographic variables on test performance found that BNT-SA-SF performance was not significantly affected by the socio-demographic characteristics of participants, including age, education, language, or socio-economic status, with the exception that men appear to achieve higher scores than women. Further, an item analysis identified a number of problematic items and suggestions are made concerning how to deal with these in future studies. Preliminary normative data stratified by sex and education are presented. Results support the clinical utility of the BNT-SA-SF as a screening test to aid in the diagnosis of AD from normal aging with older adults in South Africa. This study is a valuable step forward in the ongoing attempt to provide culturally appropriate and valid neuropsychological tests and norms for clinical and research purposes in South Africa. Future studies should examine the functioning of the test in larger samples, representative of the other major population and language groups in South Africa.

▼ [Background] The effects of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be devastating not only for the child that sustains the injury but also for his or her family. A TBI can negatively affect a child cognitively, emotionally, and behaviourally. In developing countries such as South Africa these negative effects of TBI are often compounded by the impact of other health crises such as HIV / AIDS, as well as by the existence of relatively few economic resources and a lack of rehabilitation services. Injury-related consequences, further compounded by developing world contexts, seem to suggest that families of children with TBI have many stressors and strains that need to be addressed. Aims. The current study sought to explore the needs and stressors of caregivers of children with TBI, and how local contextual factors contribute to those needs and stressors. [Methods] The sample consisted of four groups (n = 18 caregivers in each). These four groups included parents/caregivers who cared for a child with either a mild head injury, a moderate/severe head injury, or an orthopaedic injury, and a control group of caregivers with healthy children. The Parenting Stress Index, Family Burden of Injury Interview, and Family Needs Questionnaire were administered to each participant. [Results] South African caregivers of children with TBIs are critically stressed. Much of their stress is related to the child's behaviour and ways of relating to their caregiver. Caregivers in the Moderate/Severe TBI group reported experiencing particular difficulty with their own reactions to the injury, and reported feeling depressed and incompetent, as well as isolated and restricted by their role as parent. Caregivers also reported experiencing a need for health information, professional support, community support, involvement in the child's care, and emotional support. They reported, however, that few of these needs were being met. Results also showed that South African caregivers of children with TBI displayed more stressors and needs than similar samples in developed countries. [Conclusions] We suggest that a better understanding of the experience of families of children with TBIs is needed amongst TBI service providers. It is hoped that this study's results will aid that understanding, and that they will provide information for policy makers who can set into motion a sequence of services that more adequately aid both the child with TBI and his/her family.

▼ Studies conducted in high income countries have increasingly recognised that youth who are violently victimised are often victimised across more than one life domain, a pattern of violence exposure termed poly-victimisation. Further, poly-vicimisation has been associated with a greater severity of internalising and externalising symptoms than single types of exposure. However, there is a dearth of studies on the rate and impact of poly-victimisation among youth in South Africa. The current study assessed the rate of exposure of younger adolescents (N = 616; mean age 12.8 years) in a high-violence, low-income community in Cape Town to domestic, community, school and sexual violence either as victims or witnesses. It further explored the independent and relative contributions of each different type of violence exposure, and of polyvictimisation, to the severity of depression, aggression and conduct problems. Participants in Grade 7 at nine schools completed questionnaires measuring demographic variables, violence exposure, and symptoms of depression, aggression and conduct problems. Almost all of the participants (98.9%) had witnessed violence in their neighbourhood, 40.1% were victims of violence in their neighbourhood, 58.6% had been victims of violence in their homes, 76% had witnessed interpersonal violence in their homes, 75% had been exposed to school violence, and 8% reported experiences of sexual abuse. The median number of violence types participants were exposed to was four, with poly-victimisation being extremely prevalent: 93.1% of the sample were exposed to more than one type of violence, with 75% having been exposed to more than three different types. In a multivariate analysis, female gender, being a victim of domestic violence and poly-victimisation each made a significant independent contribution to levels of depression; being a victim of domestic violence, witnessing community violence, being a victim or witness of school violence and being sexually violated each made a significant independent contribution to levels of aggression; and being both a victim and witness of violence in the home and in the neighbourhood, together with male gender, each made a significant independent contribution to conduct problems. Poly-victimisation did not contribute significantly to levels of aggression or conduct problems. Being a victim of violence at home conferred the most risk for depression, aggression and conduct problems. The findings indicate that for the young adolescents in this study, violence exposure can be viewed as a condition as opposed to a discrete event, and that in this context of high rates of poly-victimisation, domestic victimisation stands out as the strongest risk factor for both internalising and externalising symptoms. Intervention implications and recommendations for future research are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Kaminer, Debbie (advisor).

▼ One in three South African women will be raped in her lifetime; the gravity of this issue makes investigating factors influencing rape perpetration a crucial endeavour. Drawing on a feminist post-structuralist framework, this study is based on the assumption that how masculinity is constructed in a given context may influence some men's sexually aggressive behaviour within that context. Six focus group sessions, each consisting of between four and six male university students (with a total of 30 participants) were held, in which the reasons for why some men rape in South Africa were discussed. Focusing on constructions of masculinity and heterosex, the data was analysed using discourse analysis based on the Foucauldian notion of discourse. The data was divided into three main sections, namely 'the Discourse of the Male Sexual Drive', 'Heterosex', and 'Masculinity as Power'. Consistent with previous literature, within the data the male sexual drive was constructed as being largely out of men's control, with men depicted as not being culpable for raping when they do not have access to consensual sex; when the victim is wearing revealing clothing; or when the victim is drunk. Heterosex was also constructed as having considerably different meaning for males and females, with a clear presence of the 'sexual double standard', in which men are praised for having sex whereas women are denigrated and seen as morally lacking. The rules of heterosexual conduct were also constructed as being mediated by culture, in ways in which it was argued ignore the individual rights and responsibilities of the victims and perpetrators of sexual violence. Having power was further constructed as the principle feature of masculinity, with rape being a means of attaining power. Therefore, men without access to power in other areas (primarily poor and/or black men) were depicted as being the most likely to rape. Rape was also seen as a response to women's empowerment, as well as a mechanism through which women that are "too proud" can be humbled, and was thereby constructed as a tool through which male power over women is maintained. It is argued that some of the constructions within the data are problematic in that they support racist, classist and patriarchal ideologies; often place the blame for rape entirely onto women, whose rights are at times ignored; and remove culpability from the perpetrators of rape. The findings of this study therefore demonstrate the importance of challenging accepted rape myths and underlying assumptions about masculinity and heterosex in order to address the issue of rape in South Africa Advisors/Committee Members: Boonzaier, Floretta (advisor).

▼ Background and Objective: First-year university students face many challenges during the transition to university. Some of these relate to their background and socio-demographic characteristics and others have to do with the characteristics of the universities they attend. South African first-year students may face even more challenges adjusting to university, which are linked to the country's Apartheid history. This study aimed to explore relationships between mental health, socioeconomic status and subjective social status in first-year students at four South African universities. In particular, the aims were to explore the role of subjective social status and resilience in predicting the adjustment, mental health and general health of first year university students. Method: Participants in the study (n=336) were South African first-year students who were enrolled in first year psychology courses at four universities. Two of the universities were historically advantaged, and two were historically disadvantaged. Data collection took the form an online survey as well as the distribution of printed questionnaires. A demographic questionnaire was used in addition to questionnaires, which measured students' quality of adjustment, mental health, general health, subjective social status, alcohol use and illicit substance use and resilience (Connor- Davidson Resiliency Scale). Results: A series of hierarchical regression analyses indicated that place of residence was an significant predictor of the quality of their adjustment to university (R 2 =.11). Results of the multiple regression analyses also indicated that resilience was a significant predictor of mental health (R 2 = .22) and a significant predictor of general health (R2 = .11) in the sample of first-year students. Conclusion: These findings highlight the importance resilience can play in predicting students' mental and general health during the transition to university. It also highlights the fact that universities should take the opportunity to provide adequate support programmes and create social networks to make the transition to university easier for students who may be at risk for poor adjustment and poor mental health and general health. In particular university residences, which provide a living environment that encourages academic and social interaction and provide a supportive atmosphere, can make the transition to university smoother for first years. 4 Advisors/Committee Members: Thomas, Kevin G F (advisor).

▼ Cross-cultural differences in cognition have been well established across the world, and differences in Individualism (IND) and Collectivism (COL) are believed to underlie the majority of these cultural variations. IND-COL measures are frequently used to categorise nations as either IND or COL and these nations are subsequently used to draw IND or COL samples for comparison on various cognitive tasks. The multicultural nature of South Africa and inconsistent findings on IND-COL in SA makes such IND-COL categorisation problematic. African nations have also been conspicuously missing from international cross-cultural research on culture and cognition. This study set out to explore the utility of IND-COL measures in South Africa, with special regard to possible racial or linguistic differences. It also set out to remedy the absence of African nations in the international literature by replicating a previous study on culture and cognition within a South African sample. The shortened HVIC scale by Triandis and Gelfand (1998) was used to explore racial and linguistic differences in terms of IND-COL within a South African university population (N = 1380). Psychometric analyses showed good reliability, internal consistency, and construct validity. Regression analysis revealed race and language as poor predictors of IND. COL prediction was marginally better, accounting for 8.2% of variance, and with African Language as a significant predictor (beta = -.432, p < .01). To address the absence of Africa in the literature, replication of the eye-tracking and memory study by Chua et al. (2005) was attempted in a South African university population (N = 52). Due to the multicultural nature of South Africa, participants were recruited and sorted according to scores on a shortened version of the HVIC into an IND group (n = 25) and a COL group (n = 27). After correcting for outliers, no significant differences were found between the two groups regarding eye-movement patterns or memory. The two SA groups did, however, differ significantly from the American group but not the Chinese group in the original study by Chua et al. (2005). Discrepancies in IND-COL research in SA are likely due to a lack of comprehensiveness in terms of the cultural tasks included in the surveys. Increasing acculturation in post-Apartheid South Africa, especially among university students, may also play a large role. Further issues regarding IND-COL measurement in South Africa, as well as issues surrounding IND-COL measurement internationally were also discussed. Methodological issues in studying the links between IND-COL and cognition within a South African context were likely the reason behind the lack of differences found in this study in terms of eye-movement patterns and memory for the two SA groups.
