Connectedness to Campus and Likelihood of Help-Seeking for Suicidality among College Women     

Jessica Samuolis  Kenneth Griffin  Mary Jo Mason  Nancy Dekraker 《Journal of College Student Psychotherapy》2017,31(3):238-246

The goal of the present study was to examine the link between connectedness to campus and the likelihood of help-seeking from a mental health professional/school counselor for thoughts of suicide among college women. An online survey was administered to college students to assess perceived likelihood of seeking help, feelings of connectedness to campus, sense of togetherness with peers, and presence of a supportive group of friends on campus. Findings indicated that feeling connected to campus was positively associated with perceived likelihood of help-seeking for suicidal ideation. Furthermore, this association was stronger among participants reporting either a sense of togetherness with peers or a supportive group of friends. Efforts to increase students’ sense of connection to the larger campus community and build peer relationships may promote help-seeking for suicidal ideation among college women.  相似文献

International political socialization of sixth grade elementary children: What and how do Japanese and Thai children know about the world?     

Jo Ann Cutler Sweeney  Peter A. Zandan 《International Review of Education/Internationale Zeitschrift für Erziehungswissenschaft/Revue internationale l'éducation》1981,27(3):271-300

This study investigates cognitive and affective components of Japanese and Thai children's attitudes toward international political socialization. The survey results report how children feel about people from other nations, international political institutions, and their country's involvement with the world community. An important concern of the study is the assessment of how much accurate knowledge Japanese and Thai elementary school children have about other nations. This study includes information on children's feelings about, and knowledge of such problems as warfare between nations, world government, stereotypic thinking about people not belonging to one's own culture and awareness of cross-cultural diffusion between Japan, Thailand and other nations.

Zusammenfassung Diese Studie befaßt sich mit den kognitiven und affektiven Elementen der Einstellung japanischer und thailändischer Kinder zu internationaler politischer Sozialisierung. Aus den Ergebnissen der Untersuchung geht hervor, wie Kinder über Mitglieder anderer Nationen, über internationale politische Organisationen und über den Zusammenhang ihres Landes mit der Weltgemeinschaft denken. Ein wichtiges Ziel der Studie war es, festzustellen, wieviel akkurates Wissen von anderen Völkern japanische und thailändische Kinder besitzen. Der Bericht enthält Informationen über die Einstellung der Kinder und ihre Kenntnisse in bezug auf Probleme wie Kriege, Weltregierung, stereotypische Vorstellungen von Menschen, die nicht zur eigenen Kultur gehören, sowie darüber, inwieweit sie sich der grenzübergreifenden kulturellen Diffusion zwischen Japan, Thailand und anderen Ländern bewußt sind.

Résumé Cette étude est une recherche des composants, cognitifs et affectifs, des attitudes des enfants thaïlandais et japonais devant la socialisation politique internationale. Les résultats de l'enquête montrent comment les enfants réagissent devant les gens des autres nations, devant les institutions politiques internationales et les relations de leur propre pays avec la communauté mondiale. L'auteur s'intéresse plus particulièrement à l'évaluation des connaissances exactes que les enfants thaïlandais et japonais des classes élémentaires possèdent sur les autres nations. L'étude donne des informations sur les sentiments des enfants à l'égard des autres pays, sur la connaissance qu'ils ont des problèmes tels que la guerre entre nations, le gouvernement mondial, la pensée stéréotypée sur ceux qui n'appartiennent pas à leur propre culture, et sur leur prise de conscience de la diffusion interculturelle entre le Japon, la Thaïlande et les autres nations.

Outcomes and satisfaction of two optional cadaveric dissection courses: A 3‐year prospective study          下载免费PDF全文

Diogo Pais  Diogo Casal  Luís Mascarenhas‐Lemos  Pedro Barata  Bernard J. Moxham  João Goyri‐O'Neill 《Anatomical sciences education》2017,10(2):127-136

Teaching time dedicated to anatomy education has been reduced at many medical schools around the world, including Nova Medical School in Lisbon, Portugal. In order to minimize the effects of this reduction, the authors introduced two optional, semester‐long cadaveric dissection courses for the first two years of the medical school curriculum. These courses were named Regional Anatomy I (RAI) and Regional Anatomy II (RAII). In RAI, students focus on dissecting the thorax, abdomen, pelvis, and perineum. In RAII, the focus shifts to the head, neck, back, and upper and lower limbs. This study prospectively analyzes students' academic achievement and perceptions within the context of these two, newly‐introduced, cadaveric dissection courses. Students' satisfaction was assessed anonymously through a questionnaire that included items regarding students' perception of the usefulness of the courses for undergraduate teaching, as well as with regards to future professional activity. For each of the three academic years studied, the final score (1 to 20) in General Anatomy (GA), RAI, and RAII was on average 14.26 ± 1.89; 16.94 ± 1.02; 17.49 ± 1.01, respectively. The mean results were lower in GA than RAI or RAII (P < 0.001). Furthermore, students who undertook these courses ranked them highly with regards to consolidating their knowledge of anatomy, preparing for other undergraduate courses, and training for future clinical practice. These survey data, combined with data on participating students' academic achievement, lend strong support to the adoption of similar courses as complementary and compulsory disciplines in a modern medical curriculum.

Indonesian Children's Play with Their Mothers and Older Siblings   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Jo Ann M. Farver  Supra Wimbarti 《Child development》1995,66(5):1493-1503

30 Indonesian children were observed and videotaped on 2 separate occasions while playing with toys to promote imaginative play with their mothers and older siblings. Play episodes were examined for level of play with objects, mutual involvement in social and cooperative social pretend play, maternal and sibling play behaviors, and thematic content. Mothers were interviewed about children's play. Results showed that level of object play and mutual involvement in cooperative social pretend play increased with age. Pretend play with objects and cooperative social pretend play were more frequent with older siblings than with mothers. Older siblings were more actively involved in play activities than were mothers. Siblings joined their younger partners' play activities and made comments and suggestions for pretend play. The findings suggest that older siblings can be effective facilitators of pretend play with young children. The results also show how the sociocultural context shapes children's early play behavior with different partners.  相似文献   

A longitudinal study of children's early literacy experiences at home and later literacy development at home and school     

Jo Weinberger 《Journal of Research in Reading》1996,19(1):14-24

Studies of literacy attainment in the early years of school have identified various measures at school entry which predict later attainment. The study reported has sought not only to replicate earlier findings but to investigate significant home factors from a younger age. Literacy experiences of 42 children at ages 3, 5 and 7 were investigated, and the relationship of home factors to literacy development explored. Findings are reported concerning two outcome measures at age 7: children's reading level, as determined by the difficulty level of their school reading book, and whether or not children at age 7 were judged to have literacy difficulties. Significant factors included having favourite books at age 3; letter knowledge and parents reading to children at school entry; and at age 7, access to home computers, and parents’ knowledge of literacy teaching in school. Children with literacy difficulties owned fewer books, were less likely to read to themselves or their parents, and generally had less support for literacy at home. Implications for teachers, highlighting the relevance of home literacy, are discussed. The findings underline the importance of home factors for children's literacy development.  相似文献   

Preparing beginning teachers for technology integration in education: ready for take-off?     

Jo Tondeur  Natalie Pareja Roblin  Johan van Braak  Joke Voogt  Sarah Prestridge 《Technology, Pedagogy and Education》2017,26(2):157-177

The overall aims of this study are to explore (1) how beginning teachers integrate technology in their practice and (2) the connections between teachers’ technology uses and their pre-service education programmes. Data of this follow-up study were collected through in-depth interviews with beginning teachers. The results reveal that all beginning teachers used a wide range of technological applications, mainly for structured learning approaches, while few created opportunities for student-centred technology use. Further, pre-service learning experiences that impact graduate teachers’ technology use are identified. While teacher educators modelling technology use are an important motivator for beginning teachers to use technology in their own teaching, field experiences seem to be the most critical factor influencing their current practice. Based on the results of this study, recommendations about how to prepare and support pre-service and beginning teachers for technology integration are discussed.  相似文献   

Heavy‐metal Humpty Dumpty: dissonant masculinities within the context of the nursery     

Jo Warin 《Gender and education》2006,18(5):523-537

To operationalize a feminist poststructuralist approach necessitates research of a close‐up nature in order to track shifting subject positions through a range of social contexts and to explore the interpersonal and intrapersonal power relations that operate within them. Adopting this theoretical perspective, together with Connell’s concept of hegemonic masculinity, this paper explores the practices and beliefs of one male nursery teacher, Ian, as he attempts to carry out a Government‐funded initiative aimed at increasing the involvement of fathers and male carers in his nursery. Data are drawn from a sequence of interviews with Ian, his colleagues, and the participating fathers and male carers. The analysis shows how Ian experiences identity dissonance which can be interpreted as a struggle with competing aspects of masculinity as he slips in and out of forms of hegemonic masculinity, sometimes complicit and sometimes struggling to resist. This interpretation problematizes the essentialist nature of the concept of hegemonic masculinity.  相似文献   

Emotional neglect and family structure: impact on student functioning   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Wark MJ  Kruczek T  Boley A 《Child abuse & neglect》2003,27(9):1033-1043

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to demonstrate the relationship between retrospective reports of child neglect, family of origin functioning, and current psychological distress. It was hypothesized that experience of childhood emotional neglect would be associated with lower levels of cohesion and adaptability in participants' family of origin and greater levels of current psychological distress. Gender effects were explored. METHOD: Retrospective reports of emotional neglect in childhood were quantified by use of a parental bonding measure, specifically by assessing level of perceived parental care. Participants were assigned to one of three groups based on level of care scores: neglect by a primary male caregiver, neglect by a primary female caregiver, and no neglect. These groups were compared on three variables: current psychological functioning, retrospective report of family of origin adaptability, and retrospective report of family of origin cohesiveness. Amount of time left in the care of others was used as a covariate based on attachment theory literature. RESULTS: Data were analyzed for 69 female and 22 male undergraduate students. Participants who reported a childhood experience of emotional neglect by a primary female caregiver described greater current psychological distress than those reporting no neglect or neglect by a primary male caregiver. Participants who experienced emotional neglect by a primary female caregiver, as compared to those reporting emotional neglect by a primary male caregiver and those reporting no neglect, described lower cohesion and adaptability in their family of origin. There were no differences between male and female participants in terms of impact of emotional neglect. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests potential caregiver gender effects, regardless of respondent gender. Perceived neglect by female, but not male caregivers, led to psychological distress in adulthood and was associated with lower cohesion and adaptability in one's family of origin. Future research should attempt to account for the participants' expectations regarding male and female caregiver roles.  相似文献
