A concurrent assessment of the positive and negative properties of a signaled shock schedule     

John Harsh  Pietro Badia 《Learning & behavior》1974,2(3):168-172

A choice and a conditioned suppression procedure were used to assess concurrently the positive and negative properties of stimuli within a signaled shock schedule, Occasional shocks were presented to Ss responding on a variable-interval food schedule. Ss could choose whether shocks occurred alone or whether they were preceded by a 1-min signal. All Ss chose the signaled shock condition over the unsignaled one, even though food reinforced responding in the presence of the signal was suppressed. Rate of responding for food varied across stimulus conditions, with the lowest rate in the presence of the signal and the highest rate in its absence. An intermediate rate occurred under the unsignaled shock schedule. A safety analysis was applied to the data.  相似文献   

‘It’s good enough that our children are accepted’: Roma mothers’ views of children’s education post migration     

Daniela Sime  Giovanna Fassetta  Michele McClung 《British Journal of Sociology of Education》2018,39(3):316-332

The discrimination of Roma groups across Europe has been highlighted by several international organisations. For many, poverty, racism and their children’s systematic exclusion from education are ‘push’ factors when deciding to migrate. This study explores Roma mothers’ views of their children’s education post migration and their attitudes to education more broadly, by adopting an intersectional framework and examining issues of difference and belonging as experienced by Roma mothers and their children. While Roma mothers recognised the value of education for social mobility, they remained aware of the limited resources they could draw upon, in the absence of desirable economic and cultural capitals, and as a result of their ethnicity, social class, gender and ‘undesirable migrant’ status. There was a perceived hopelessness in relation to the chances that Roma children have to overcome their marginalisation through schooling, pointing to the need for dedicated policy interventions when working with Roma families.  相似文献

Signal duration and choosing between signaled and unsignaled reward     

Kathleen A. Ryan  Pietro Badia 《Learning & behavior》1982,10(1):55-60

The effects of signal duration when choosing between signaled and unsignaled response-independent reinforcers were examined in two experiments. In Experiment 1, albino rats were given a choice between signaled and unsignaled food delivered on variable-time 60-sec schedules using a 20-sec signal. All subjects preferred the signaled schedule at a level comparable to that reported in an earlier study using a 5-sec signal. Experiment 2 presented six rats with a direct choice between a 5-sec and a 20-sec signal condition, and three rats with a choice between a 1.5-sec and a 5-sec signal duration. Subjects preferred the 20-sec signal over the 5-sec signal, but no pReference was found with the 1.5-sec vs. a 5-sec signal. Current theoretical views, such as delay reduction and behavioral competition, are considered.  相似文献   

The student–teacher relationship quality in children with selective mutism     

Claudio Longobardi  Laura Badenes‐Ribera  Francesca Giovanna Maria Gastaldi  Laura Elvira Prino 《Psychology in the schools》2019,56(1):32-41

Selective mutism (SM) is a rare anxiety disorder that compromises children's daily life during critical periods of early development. Because school is a prime context for the manifestation of the disorder, the aim of this study was to investigate the quality of the student–teacher relationship and its effects on behavior and work, and on social and relational skills. The sample consisted of 75 children—15 were affected by SM, with 60 in the control group—and 15 teachers. The results showed greater difficulty on the teacher's part to establish a relationship based on affective closeness with a child affected by SM, compared to that with unaffected children. Nevertheless, an encouraging picture emerges of the inclusion and integration of the child with SM among peers and therefore in the class group.  相似文献   

Adolescent Perception of Potential High-Performing Classmates: A Cross-National Exploration     

Hyerim Oh  Margaret Sutherland  Niamh Stack  Mar Badia Martín  Sheyla Blumen  Quoc Anh-Thu Nguyen 《Roeper Review》2019,41(2):88-101

This study explores how secondary school students perceive high-performing potential classmates. A total of 1,794 seventh- and 10th-grade students from five countries completed a questionnaire measuring their expectations of hypothetical male and female high-performing classmates in three categories: intellectual ability, positive social qualities, and popularity. Across the five countries represented in this study, analyses of variance indicated that students did not report negative attitudes toward the three potential characteristics of a hypothetical gifted peer. Vietnamese students in particular reported more positive observations about the hypothetical classmate than their Australian, Peruvian, South Korean, and Spanish counterparts. Differing cross-national attitudes toward high-performing peers and the implications therein are discussed.  相似文献

Pacing during a cross-country mountain bike mass-participation event according to race performance,experience, age and sex     

Samantha Louise Moss  Ben Francis  Giovanna Calogiuri  Jamie Highton 《European Journal of Sport Science》2019,19(6):793-801

This study describes pacing strategies adopted in an 86-km mass-participation cross-country marathon mountain bike race (the ‘Birkebeinerrittet’). Absolute (km·h^?1) and relative speed (% average race speed) and speed coefficient of variation (%CV) in five race sections (15.1, 31.4, 52.3, 74.4 and 100% of total distance) were calculated for 8182 participants. Data were grouped and analysed according to race performance, age, sex and race experience. The highest average speed was observed in males (21.8?±?3.7?km/h), 16–24?yr olds (23.0?±?4.8?km/h) and those that had previously completed >4 Birkebeinerrittet races (22.5?±?3.4?km/h). Independent of these factors, the fastest performers exhibited faster speeds across all race sections, whilst their relative speed was higher in early and late climbing sections (Cohen's d?=?0.45–1.15) and slower in the final descending race section (d?=?0.64–0.98). Similar trends were observed in the quicker age, sex and race experience groups, who tended to have a higher average speed in earlier race sections and a lower average speed during the final race section compared to slower groups. In all comparisons, faster groups also had a lower %CV for speed than slower groups (fastest %CV?=?24.02%, slowest %CV?=?32.03%), indicating a lower variation in speed across the race. Pacing in a cross-country mountain bike marathon is related to performance, age, sex and race experience. Better performance appears to be associated with higher relative speed during climbing sections, resulting in a more consistent overall race speed.  相似文献   

From departure to arrival: Re-engaging students who have withdrawn from university     

Andrew Harvey  Giovanna Szalkowicz 《Journal of Further & Higher Education》2017,41(1):79-97

Despite institutional strategies to prevent student withdrawal, attrition remains a concern across higher education sectors in the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia. In the case of Australian universities, attrition rates have remained consistently high since 2002. Some level of attrition is inevitable, but universities can influence the circumstances and the consequences of departure. This article draws on two research projects conducted within an Australian institution. The studies confirm that withdrawing students: often leave for personal reasons; are typically young and from under-represented backgrounds; generally remain positive about higher education; and are relatively likely to return to the sector in future. Despite our findings, institutional strategies around the point of departure remain variable and, contrary to their stated intentions, departing students are rarely seen as future students by the institutions from which they withdraw. Preventive strategies need to be combined with broader institutional policies designed to re-engage and re-recruit the cohort of departed students.  相似文献
