The goal of this paper is establishing whether there is a difference in the motivation for parenthood of the female students, regarding the turn of birth. The research has been done on a convenient sample consisting of 106 female students at the State university of Novi Pazar. In the research, the parenthood Motivation scale has been used. The results have demonstrated that the motivation for parenthood is mostly instrumental and least narcistic with these students. The results of the testing, significance and difference in the motivation for parenthood regarding the turn of birth have demonstrated that, statistically speaking, there is a significant difference in general and instrumental motivation between the first born and the second born. Namely, this dimension is more expressed with the second born questionees [t(82)=-2.446; p<.05]. It has also been demonstrated that the second born questionees have a stronger desire for a child in order to prove oneself, which eventually ascertaines the results of the descriptive analysis of instrumental motivation for parenthood. The research has shown that the female students mostly reduce the motivation for parenthood to its instrumentalization and their desire to have a child to a value of children as they themselves percieve it.

This study aimed to (a) identify vocabulary learning strategies (VLSs) employed by Turkish EFL learners; (b) determine whether the use of VLSs varies by gender. To achieve these aims, the vocabulary learning strategies scale developed by Kocaman and Kizilkaya Cumaoglu (2014) was administered to preparatory school students (n=209) at a state university in Turkey. Descriptive statistics (means, standard deviations) and an independent-samples t-test were used for statistical analyses. The results revealed that the frequency of VLS use was at a medium level. In addition, analysis of the sub-dimensions of the scale showed that memory, cognitive, compensation, and social strategies were used at a medium frequency level, while metacognitive and affective strategies were used at a high frequency. When VLS use was analyzed with respect to gender, a significant difference was seen between males and females, with female students having a higher total mean score than male students. Also, female students reported more use of memory, cognitive, compensation, metacognitive, and affective strategies; however, no statistically significant gender difference was found regarding the frequency of the use of social strategies.

"The phenomenon of marriage is one of the little-studied questions of family psychology. The resolution of the contradiction between the need of modern society to form complete and adequate ideas about the marital role among students and the need to identify socio-psychological factors that influence the development of ideas about marriage determines the problem of research. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of ideas about marriage (Ideal husband, Ideal wife) depending on the structure of valuable orientations of young women in early adulthood. Methods of research. Theoretical and methodological literature analysis, questionnaire, psycho-diagnostic methods (the questionnaire “A Value and Availability Ratio in Various Vital Spheres Technique” by E.B. Fantalova, the method of Semantic Differential, developed by Charles E. Osgood, projective technique of ""Incomplete Sentences"", the questionnaire ""Role Expectations and Claims in Marriage"" by A. N. Volkova); mathematical and statistical data processing methods. During the analytical stage we used mathematical and statistical methods that allowed us to establish the reliability of the research results. All calculations were performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 21 computer program. The analysis included descriptive statistics, cluster analysis (K-means method), Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for one sample, Shapiro-Wilkes criterion, and correlation analysis. The study involved 310 female students in age from 20 to 22 from Astrakhan State University and the Astrakhan Branch of the Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration. It was found that among young female students 45 people (14.5 %) are focused on the values of professional self-realization, 59 people (19 %) are focused on gnostic and aesthetic values, and 206 people (66.5 %) are focused on the values of personal happiness. The results showed that the concepts of marriage have both common features and specific features due to the influence of the structure of valuable orientations of the respondents. Ideas about marriage are characterized by fragmentary formation of emotional and behavioral components, in some cases the presence of cognitive distortions. The obtained results actualize the importance and necessity of psychological and pedagogical support of the process of family self-determination of students, the formation of complete and adequate ideas about marriage in the conditions of the educational environment of the university."

Was evaluated the maximum load supported by the grastrocnemius muscle of female rats after the ministering of Cystoseira canariensis, either associated or not to swimming. Twenty-eight young Wistar female rats were used, divided into 4 groups: control (C, n=7); supplement (S, n=7); supplement and swimming (SSw, n=7); swimming (Sw, n=7). Each one pertaining to the groups S and SSw received 20 mg of myostatin inhibitor per day. The swimming consisted in an aerobe protocol, three times in a week, during eight weeks. The right grastrocnemius muscle of each animal was removed and a tension test was performed in an Emic testing machine. The results (Mean±SEM) were evaluated through ANOVA and Tukey test (p<0.05). A significant difference for maximum load (in N) was verified among the groups C (35.41±1.06) and S (39.98±1.15); Sw (27.94±2.19) and S (39.98±1.15); Sw (27.94±2.19) and SSw (37.78±1.28). In relation to the stretching at the maximum limit (in x10-3m) at the maximum load, the group SSw obtained a value (20.68±1.19) significantly greater than the groups C (17.15±1.11), S and Sw (16.11±1.60). There was a significant difference for body weight gain among the groups treated with supplement and supplement associated to the swimming, with smaller values for this last. The myostatin inhibitor either, associated or not to the swimming, promotes an increase of resistance to the maximum load in the tension test in grastrocnemius muscle of young female rats.
