ACCIDENTS - RHYTHMIC THREAT TO FEMALES

THERE ARE STILL SOME UNANSWERED QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE COMPLEXITIES OF THE FEMALE MENSTRUAL CYCLE AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO THE BEHAVIOR OF THE WOMAN IN HER CHILDBEARING YEARS. THIS STUDY SHEDS LIGHT ON SUCH VARIABLES AS SUICIDE, CRIME AND ACCIDENTS AS THEY RELATE TO THE MENUSTRAL CYCLE. USING STUDIES INVOLVING VARIOUS CULTURES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, THE AUTHOR HAS COMPLETED RESEARCH WITH HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE AGE FEMALES IN AN EFFORT TO EXPOSE ANY EXISTING RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE OCCURRENCE OF ACCIDENTS AND THE MENUSTRAL CYCLE OF THE FEMALE. BASED UPON THE ANALYSIS OF DATA WITHIN THE ABOVE MENTIONED RESEARCH, CONCLUSIONS DO SHOW SIGNIFICANCE CONCERNING THE PRE-MENSTRUAL AND MENSTRUAL PHASE OF THE COMPLETE CYCLE PLUS THE LENGTH OF MENSTRUAL FLOW AND THE RELATIONSHIP THAT BOTH HAVE WITH ACCIDENT INVOLVEMENT. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FURTHER STUDY ARE ALSO INCLUDED. /AUTHOR/
