The article "Think Again: Men and Women Share Cognitive Skills" from the website The Psychology Matters focuses on gender differences in performing in math-related fields from cognitive perspective. Generally speaking, men are good at mathematical and scientific problem solving while women are better in communication skills. Some evidences reported by Hyde, Spelke, and Spencer show rather than genetic factors, cultural contexts are the powerful elements which create this gender stereotype statement. Both boys and girls have equal ability to perform in math and science problems. However, as they get older, more men go on to math and science related fields. The article in The Psychology Matters states the reason for this phenomenon is more men are given opportunities to train in math and science problems. Another factor is the way math and science tests are given or how they are expressed. For instance, when women took tests in Spencer's study, given positive statements which overcome the gender disparity, they did better than those who were given negative statements based on stereotype. The cultural context within a society plays a great role in making gender differences.
Since cognitive skills in math and science are not fully determined by biological factors, changing the way people are educated is essential to eliminate the gender differences. First, men and women will probably have an equal opportunity of going into math-related working forces if they are trained in proble
The Day a Week Starts
I attended the Jewish Friday Sabbath service at the Temple Israel in Omaha at 7:30 pm on Friday, November 11th. The congregation of this temple is the Reform; therefore, the beliefs of worshipers are more liberal than other Jewish congregations. During the service on that day, people sung, the Rabbi talked, a guest speaker from university gave a lecture, and a lady was converted. After the service, some people moved to the different room to get together and had some conversation over refreshments.
The building of temple is described as plain, but it has elegant characteristics. Inside the temple was not very much decorated with arts, but there were many worded remembrances of Jewish history and beliefs on the walls. There was a section where many goods which were made in various times of history were displayed. Compared to the Asian religious places that I know of, Temple Israel looked very different. If I express some of the Asian religious places as a strong, dignified places, it is rather simple but elegant: with the white-based walls and colorful stained glass in the higher parts of side walls. There were three statue-looking objects in bright colors behind the see-through curtain at the very front of the room. I did not know what they were called, but they looked that they were sacredly kept. They were taken out during the service.
My impression of the service for worshipers was to share a meaningful time with other worshipers and to gain better un
