How to achieve racial accommodation by the year 2068
Article Abstract:
The 'life cycle' model, designed to achieve racial equality in the US, proposes to balance the life chances of all births that take place in 2001 and thereafter. Adult education and other social resources will have a gradual impact on social disorganization and youth education. The children born in 2001 will occupy grades 1-6 by 2013. These children can enjoy successful learning along with reduced behavioral problems and anti-social activities. Educated children will exert control on the socialization process, and promote a healthy social environment and racial equality.

An assessment of the construct validity of Ryff's Scales of Psychological Well-Being: Method, mode, and measurement effects
Article Abstract:
The measurement properties of Ryff's Scales of Psychological Well-Being (RPWB), which is used to measure six dimensions of psychological well-being, are assessed. The analysis has shown that RPWB does not measure six distinct dimensions of psychological well-being and the researchers should be cautious in interpreting its subscales.
