Jeopardy Chanced : The Sexual Agency of Female Slaves in Ancient Rome, with Comparisons to Han China

This study aims at exploring one category of agentic behaviour pertinent to female slaves in the classical Roman world (ca 264 BCE–235 CE), namely sexual agency. In brief, sexual agency concerns the aptitude of enslaved women to navigate erotic relationships with their master, as well as resist bodily domination and attempts to curtail their individual subjectivity. As will be demonstrated, sexual agency can be viewed as a trans-historical behaviour, observable in a myriad of heterogeneous societies where slaveholding was prevalent. To evince the intercultural value of sexual agency –– as a theoretical framework –– I turn to Han China (206 BCE–220 CE), highlighting kindred expressions of servile faculty in a coincident, though decidedly unique, social environment. Comparison here serves not only to elucidate those features peculiar to ancient Roman and Chinese slaveries, but underscore how similar historical circumstances engendered like-minded agentic stratagems

The relationship of disease severity, health beliefs, and medication adherence among HIV patients

Purpose. To investigate the relationship of disease severity, health beliefs, and medication adherence among HIV/AIDS patients.;Results. Seventy-two HIV patients were enrolled. There were no significant differences in patients\u27 perceived severity of HIV/AIDS and perceptions of benefits and barriers of the treatment across three disease stages. However, patients who had greater experience with the disease (stage C) perceived a higher risk to develop complications if they were not adherent compared to asymptomatic patients (stage A). Results also revealed that patients in stage B and C were more adherent to their medications compared to patients in stage A when regimen complexity was controlled. Finally, perceived susceptibility-inaction was positively related to medication adherence and difficulty in following doctors\u27 instructions was negatively related to adherence.;Implications. Patients\u27 medication taking behaviors can be improved by targeting issues specific to the individual patient and helping patients understand the negative consequences of poor adherence
