'I Travelled Among Unknown Men': basic skills tutors' perceptions of the National Probation Service as a foreign culture and the implications of this for cross-cutting policy     

Dr. Caroline Hudson 《Educational studies》2003,29(4):411-425

This article uses the case study of basic skills specialists' perceptions of the National Probation Service (NPS) as a foreign culture, to discuss some issues in developing and implementing cross-cutting policy on basic skills in the NPS. The article draws on three sources of qualitative data, collected as part of the evaluation of the NPS basic skills pathfinder. As educators, tutors experienced the following aspects of NPS culture as alien: its language, values and priorities, environment, and working with offenders. A typology of tutors as explorers, tourists and the stay-at-home type is used to present the extent to and ways in which tutors coped with the NPS. Possible implications of tutors' perceptions for policy development and research on basic skills in the NPS are discussed. The article concludes by relating the case study to broader issues in cross-cutting policy.  相似文献

Does shame influence nonsuicidal self-injury among college students? An investigation into the role of shame,negative urgency,and brooding

College students experience high levels of life stress that put them at increased risk for nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI). It is important to understand which vulnerabilities put students most at risk, in order to inform treatment in college counseling centers. This study investigated the joint contributions of specific vulnerabilities to lifetime history and frequency of NSSI among a sample of undergraduates (50% reported a history of NSSI). Results showed shame-proneness was uniquely associated with NSSI frequency beyond other negative emotions. Negative urgency and brooding exacerbated this effect. This study provides insights into the contributions of specific vulnerabilities to NSSI and implications for practice.  相似文献   

College Students’ Appreciative Attitudes Toward Atheists

Atheists are often marginalized in discussions of religious and spiritual pluralism on college campuses and beyond. As with other minority worldview groups, atheists face challenges with hostile campus climates and misunderstanding of their views. The present study used a large, multi-institutional sample to explore predictors of non-atheist college students’ appreciative attitudes toward atheists. Substantial differences were found across identities; secular and spiritual worldview groups hold the most positive views, whereas Christians and Muslims have the most negative attitudes. Interactions with worldview diversity—but not general religious/spiritual engagement—consistently predict more positive attitudes, and these relationships sometimes vary based on students’ own worldviews. These results suggest that colleges and universities can create more inclusive environments for atheists, who constitute a sizable minority group on today’s college campuses.  相似文献

Latent inhibition as a performance deficit resulting from CS—context associations     

Nicholas J. Grahame  Robert C. Barnet  Lisa M. Gunther  Ralph R. Miller 《Learning & behavior》1994,22(4):395-408

Treatments that attenuate latent inhibition (LI) were examined using conditioned suppression in rats. In Experiment 1, retarded conditioned responding was produced by nonreinforced exposure to the CS prior to the CS-US pairings used to assess retardation (i.e., conventional LI). In Experiment la, retarded conditioned responding was induced by preexposure to pairings of the CS and a weak US prior to retardation-test pairings of the CS with a strong US (i.e., Hall-Pearce [1979] LI). Both types of LI were attenuated by extensive exposure to the training context (i.e., context extinction) following the CS-US pairings of the retardation test. Experiment 2 examined the specificity of the attenuated LI effect observed in Experiment 1. After preexposure to two different CSs in two different contexts, each CS was paired with a US in its respective preexposure context. One of the two contexts was then extinguished. This attenuated LI to a greater degree for the CS that had been trained in the extinguished context. Experiment 3 differentiated the roles in LI of CS-context associations and context-US associations. Following preexposure to the CS in the training context, LI was reduced by further exposure to the CS outside the training context. This observation was interpreted as implicating the CS-context association as a factor in LI. Thus, the results of these experiments suggest that LI is a performance deficit mediated by unusually strong CS-context associations. Implications for Wagner’s (1981) SOP model and Miller and Matzel’s (1988) comparator hypothesis are discussed.  相似文献
