    Abstract This study investigates the indirect mechanisms relevant to converting young adults' prosocial attitudes and individual responsibility into their prosocial behavior. Our results are based on a sample of 530 young adults studying at three public regional business schools in South East Europe. They show a significant favorable influence on young adults' civic and political involvement, mediating the relationship between individual responsibility attitudes and prosocial behavior. However, this would not have been expected based on previous research. Another indirect path between the same variables is modeled using a hypothesized moderated mediation effect. The institutional influence of higher education proves to be a significant mediator of the proposed relationship, moderated by the amount of educational content in the fields of ethics, social and environmental responsibility. At mid-and-high levels of exposure to relevant educational content, this indirect path significantly influences the developing young adults' pro-environmental behaviors. The study results are discussed from the viewpoint of peripheral regions with a history of dysfunctional social capital mechanisms.

    Abstract This paper examines how values and professional socialization in business schools impact the formulation of students' contextualized view of social responsibility. We propose the empirical concept of a mental gap between the existing and the wished-for level of a business school's corporate social responsibility and estimate it empirically by using a sample of business school students from Central and South East Europe. Results show that students wish their business schools to reduce their current orientation toward economic outcomes and focus on environmental and social responsibilities. We interpret those empirical results in terms of the students' wish to balance achieving economic prosperity and enjoyment of life with the prosocial outcomes of their education. New student generations' perception of corporate social responsibility is not shaped by the professional socialization patterns but rather by the own perceptions, which can be influenced by experiential approaches to academic teaching and learning. Based on these empirical results, implications for academic practice and future research are explored.

    Abstract Müllerian anomalies such as Robert's uterus, which was first described by the French gynaecologist Dr Helene Robert in 1969, are rare clinical entities and have been reported in <3% of the female population. Robert's uterus is a rare phenomenon with a relative dearth of reported cases. Affected individuals may present with pelvic pain and dysmenorrhoea that intensifies near menses or acutely, with severe abdominal pain to the emergency department. They are also associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, abnormal fetal presentation, preterm labour, recurrent pregnancy loss and infertility. Although ultrasound has a role in its initial assessment, MRI is the best modality to further delineate its anatomy. It is typically managed via laparotomy and total horn resection, endometrectomy of the blind cavity or abdominal metroplasty. The authors present the case of a 40-year-old woman at 19+3 weeks gestation with acute onset of left-sided abdominal pain. A transvaginal ultrasound and MRI of the pelvis confirmed a Robert's uterus with a viable pregnancy in the upper left horn. She developed a ruptured horn with significant haemoperitoneum. An emergency laparotomy was performed and a non-viable fetus was evident. Only a few cases of pregnancy in the blind hemicavity have been reported so far. This case also highlights the importance of considering this diagnosis in young females presenting with dysmenorrhoea and normal menstrual flow. It is imperative to render a prompt diagnosis, as minimally invasive procedures may be more effective if detected before the formation of adnexal endometriomas.
