“…Therefore, some religious Jewish parents find themselves in constant tension between religious values and the norms of Western countries and processes of modernisation (Shalev, Baum, & Itzhaky, 2012). For other religious Jews, who are educated and work in secular disciplines such as high technology, science, and real estate, this tension between religion and actively engaging in modern life may be arguably less fraught (Irshai, 2013;Krakowski, 2017;Seigelshifer & Hartman, 2011).…”

“…Here, Mushki was clearly articulating the dual role that mobility and religion played in their lives: on the one hand, mobility afforded them more choice in terms of kinds and levels of adherence to the community's codes; while on the other hand, religion provided order and balance during the course of their mobility (Bava, 2011;Seigelshifer & Hartman, 2011).…”

“…With the rapid economic development and great improvement of people's living standard, more and more people are getting to pursue more beautiful appearance, so wig fiber as emerging consumer products is widely loved and used [1,2,3] In order to cater to the market demands, various kinds of wig products appear, correspondingly, naturally comfortable, high flame resistance, radiation protection, green, security, non-toxic, antibacterial and hygroscopicity properties are required by consumer [4,5]. Natural hair is the best materials to prepare wig, however the collection has become more and more difficult as civilization progress.…”

A novel super-artificial hair fiber basing on sodium alginate (SA) and Antarctic Krill protein (AKP) was prepared by wet spinning successfully. Such SA/AKP fiber did not only have similar crystalline structure with human hair, but also had super flame resistance and mechanical performance. It should be noted that the whole preparation process was green without any incorporation of non-toxic solution. Moreover, comparing with human hair, the SA/AKP fiber had a lot of unique groove upon the fiber surface, which contributed a lot to excellent hygroscopicity. Meanwhile, the dyeing performance could be improved notably due to incorporation of protein into the matrix. Herein, the SA/AKP fiber with superior mechanical and functional performance had practical value for application in the field of synthetic wig.

“…In between, there are the modern-orthodox Jews (MO), (sometimes referred to as religious[ dati ] [Lazar, 2020]). While this group adheres to the Halacha in a similar way to the UO group, there is less meticulous gender segregation and emphasis on modesty laws (Yulevitch et al, 2013) and more openness to the media and modern life (Seigelshifer & Hartman, 2011).…”

The protective power of certain religious aspects with regards to body image has been demonstrated in the literature. However, most studies only use self-report methods. Self-report measures are limited as they might reflect biased attitudes, especially for more traditional religious communities. The present study aimed to examine the potential bias in body image self-report measures among women from three Jewish religion denominations by comparing explicit and implicit measures in this context. Participants were 580 Israeli Jewish women from ultra-orthodox, modern-orthodox, and secular denominations who completed self-report measures of positive and negative body image attitudes as well as the thin-ideal Implicit Association Test. Findings demonstrated that while ultra-orthodox women report on more positive body image attitudes and less body image concerns, their implicit scores are similar to those of modern orthodox and secular women when taking their body mass index into account. In conclusion, there are group differences in explicit but not implicit measures.
