In the two-year study of 5,472 university students, two out of every three respondents reported being angry with the Judeo- Christian God. Anger against God was found both inside and outside of the religious community. The result of the study mirrors that of a 1988 General Social Survey which reported that 63 percent of Americans said that they sometimes felt anger towards God. Julie Exline, the lead researcher of the 2010 study, entitled “Religious and Spiritual Struggle,” observed that 50 percent of those feeling resentment towards God said those ...

Will there be more? ----- Cell phone exposure linked to bad behaviour in kids PARIS - Pregnant mothers in Denmark who regularly used mobile phones were more likely to have children with behavioural problems , according to a study released Tuesday.

I don't practice yoga. And even then, a wandering mind has been a problem since time immemorial . Did you hear what I'm saying, or is your mind wandering ? Joke! Now, stay with me, will yah? ----- WASHINGTON - Maybe you should listen to that yoga teacher who counsels you to stay in the moment. A US study out Thursday suggests that people spend about half of their time thinking about being somewhere else, or doing something other than what they are doing, and this perpetual act of mind-wandering makes them unhappy. "A human mind is a wandering mind, and a wandering mind is an unhappy mind," wrote psychologists Matthew Killingsworth and Daniel Gilbert of Harvard University in the journal Science. "The ability to think about what is not happening is a cognitive achievement that comes at an emotional cost." The study tracked 2,250 people via the trendy iPhone gadgets using an application, or app, that contacted volunteers at "random interva...

Are we talking about anger management here? ----- SINGAPORE - Eight people, all who have trouble controlling their temper, are attending an anger management class. A counsellor is conducting the session. In a typical setting, this would not seem out of place. At the Institute of Mental Health 's (IMH) Child Guidance Clinic (CGC), however, such sessions are attended by children aged seven to 12 years old. In spite of their young age, all of them have anger issues that are serious enough to warrant special attention. There are no exact figures on children and teenagers in Singapore with anger issues. Dr Ong Say How, Consultant and Deputy Chief at IMH's Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry , explained that this is because "anger" is not considered a clinical diagnosis. At the CGC, children and teens with such problems are usually referred to anger management groups, which run for about eight sessions. Each year, about 16 youth attend these sessions...

There's no such thing as branding as "child's  play" when it comes to rearing kids - better kids. Read on... ----- A new study suggests that positive interactions between parents and kids can discourage personality disorders later in life. The research said that spending time with a child by reading with them, helping with homework or teaching them organizational skills helps to foster better psychological health in adulthood. "The strong interpersonal connectedness and social skills that children learn from having active, healthy engagements with adults fosters positive psychological development . With it, a child develops his or her affiliation system - their connection to the world of people," said lead study author Mark F. Lenzenweger, of Birmingham Univ...

Image via Wikipedia Here is a report that says something about older brothers. My older brothers weren't, so will the number of children studied really a sufficient part of the whole to be considered a representative of all? Anyway, read on... ----- Older Brothers More Likely to Bully FRIDAY, Nov. 5 ( HealthDay News) — Older brothers are more likely than older sisters to bully younger siblings, a new study finds. Italian researchers looked at 195 children, aged 10 to 12, who had siblings that were no more than four years older or younger. Children with older brothers were more likely to report being bullied at home. Boys were more likely to bully if they had a younger brother or sister. Older sisters were more likely to bully a sibling based on the quality of their relationship, rather than their age, according to the study. The findings appear in the British Journal of Development Psychology . “It’s likely that older sisters are raised to be responsible and ...
