In this exhibition, New Peace takes form through the imagined - trappings of a cult that worships matter and believes that reality and its cosmic, biological, and cultural evolutions exist to create the greatest variation of form possible in the universe, and for matter to experience all variations of itself.

In addition to finding seasonal and geographic variations in the urban heat island effect, Wang et al also found a substantial decrease in the urban effect during the periods of the «Great Leap Forward» (1958 - 61) and the «Cultural Revolution» (1966 - 71) and an increasing trend in the urban effect afterwards.

Geographical variations can happen because of differences in demographics, cultural and ideological factors, and because people with similar characteristics «tend to cluster together», according to the authors of the US study.

Increasing awareness and clarity among adherents to a faith or cultural group about variations within their system of beliefs and practices.

Regardless of racial, cultural, linguistic, geographic, and other such variations, parental acceptance has consistently been associated with psychological adjustment, whereas rejection tends to be associated with difficulties in maintaining future relationships, depression, and substance abuse.

These differences may be explained in part by differences in questionnaire administration methods (eg, personal interviews vs self administration), questionnaire content, target populations, or definitions and severity of the violence assessed; however, such differences may also reflect true variation and cultural differences in violence perpetration.1 4 Standardised methodologies for assessing intimate partner violence (IPV) may help to enhance the reliability of results obtained from such studies and aid in comparing prevalence rates from diverse settings.

Hence it is especially refreshing to encounter members of the discipline who are comfortable with both biologically influenced behavior patterns and the remarkable range of human cultural diversity, and who have the wit and wisdom to combine the two — consistencies in pair - bonding and adolescent sexual development and variations in the desirability of mates worldwide — rather than argue vociferously that either precludes the other.

AASECT opposes the application of labels such as «normal» and «abnormal» to these variations in the healthy sexual expression of adults, and AASECT believes that all sexual and cultural minorities should enjoy sexual freedom, equal civil rights, and parity of social opportunities and privileges.

Hence, culture variation in the epidemiological prevalence of anxiety and depression is likely due to geographical variation in the cultural adoption of collectivistic social norms.
