The ‘doing’ and ‘undoing’ of male household decision-making and economic authority in Rwanda and its implications for gender transformative programming
This paper explores two key norms that can underpin intimate partner violence (IPV) in Rwanda: men’s role as economic provider and decision-making authority in the household. It describes the political, legal and socio-economic factors affecting these norms and how they create opportunities and barriers to ‘undoing’ restrictive gender norms. The findings are drawn from an evaluation of Inadshyikirwa, an IPV prevention programme operating in Rwanda. Across 3 intervention sectors, 24 focus groups were conducted with unmarried and married men and women residing in intervention communities. 30 interviews with couples and 9 interviews with opinion leaders were conducted before they completed programme trainings designed to shift gender norms underlying IPV. The data indicates a strong awareness of and accountability to Rwandan laws and policies supporting women’s economic empowerment and decision-making, yet also persisting traditional notions of men as household heads and primary breadwinners. Transgression of these norms could be accommodated in some circumstances, especially those involving economic necessity. The data also identified an increasing recognition of the value of a more equitable partnership model. This paper highlights the importance of carefully assessing cracks in the existing gender order that can be exploited to support gender equality and non-violence

Correspondence Between Perceived Pubertal Development and Hormone Levels in 9-10 Year-Olds From the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study.
Aim: To examine individual variability between perceived physical features and hormones of pubertal maturation in 9-10-year-old children as a function of sociodemographic characteristics.
Methods: Cross-sectional metrics of puberty were utilized from the baseline assessment of the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study—a multi-site sample of 9–10 year-olds (n = 11,875)—and included perceived physical features via the pubertal development scale (PDS) and child salivary hormone levels (dehydroepiandrosterone and testosterone in all, and estradiol in females). Multi-level models examined the relationships among sociodemographic measures, physical features, and hormone levels. A group factor analysis (GFA) was implemented to extract latent variables of pubertal maturation that integrated both measures of perceived physical features and hormone levels.
Results: PDS summary scores indicated more males (70%) than females (31%) were prepubertal. Perceived physical features and hormone levels were significantly associated with child\u27s weight status and income, such that more mature scores were observed among children that were overweight/obese or from households with low-income. Results from the GFA identified two latent factors that described individual differences in pubertal maturation among both females and males, with factor 1 driven by higher hormone levels, and factor 2 driven by perceived physical maturation. The correspondence between latent factor 1 scores (hormones) and latent factor 2 scores (perceived physical maturation) revealed synchronous and asynchronous relationships between hormones and concomitant physical features in this large young adolescent sample.
Conclusions: Sociodemographic measures were associated with both objective hormone and self-report physical measures of pubertal maturation in a large, diverse sample of 9-10 year-olds. The latent variables of pubertal maturation described a complex interplay between perceived physical changes and hormone levels that hallmark sexual maturation, which future studies can examine in relation to trajectories of brain maturation, risk/resilience to substance use, and other mental health outcomes
I. Chromium(III)-catalyzed carbometalation of alkynes. II. Chromium(III)-catalyzed synthesis of allenes via a syn-carbometalation/syn-elimination sequence. III. Palladium(0)-catalyzed synthesis of ene-allenes via cross-coupling reactions with alkenyl trifluoroborates
I. Chromium(III)-catalyzed carbometalation of alkynes. Transition metal-catalyzed methods to manipulate unfunctionalized, unsaturated carbon bonds provide access to compounds otherwise difficult to synthesize by standard organic chemistry methods. In this work the generation of substituted alkenes from alkynes in the presence of cationic chromium(III) complexes is explored.* II. Chromium(III)-catalyzed synthesis of allenes. Interest in allenes as biologically active compounds and as chiral transfer reagents has driven the development of general methods for their synthesis. Many syntheses of allenes have been reported; however, few are able to achieve their synthesis with high functional group tolerance and in high enantiomeric excess. Efforts to expand the current methods for the synthesis of allenes are presented herein. Specifically, the syn-carbometalation/ syn-elimination of propargylic substrates via chromium(III) catalysis to produce allenes is reported.* III. Palladium(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction to synthesize ene-allenes. A second method to synthesize allenes is presented. In particular, ene-allenes possessing various functional groups are synthesized in good yields from propargylic carbonates through a Suzuki Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. Additionally, chiral non-racemic ene-allenes are produced with moderate to high enantiomeric excess from propargylic phosphates.* *Please refer to dissertation for diagrams

Stereotype Threat Among Black Men Following Exposure to Rap Music
Stereotype threat theory argues that reminders of negative stereotypes about one's stigmatized identity can undermine performance, but few studies have examined this phenomenon among Black Americans. Drawing from the literature on the impact of mass media on stereotype activation, we examine whether exposure to rap music induces stereotype threat among Black men. In two studies, incidental exposure to violent/misogynistic rap, but not conscious hip-hop or pop music, impaired Black (but not White) men's cognitive performance (Experiments 1 and 2), but only when the artist was ostensibly Black (vs. White; Experiment 2). These effects were conditionally mediated by stereotype activation, such that listening to a Black (but not White) rapper activated negative stereotypes about Black people for both Black and White participants but only impaired performance among Black participants (Experiment 2). This suggests that exposure to some forms of artistic expression may activate culturally shared stereotypes and obstruct academic success among stigmatized groups
