Initial Communication with and Attitudes toward International Students: Testing the Mediating Effects of Friendship Formation Variables     

Ning Liu  Yan Bing Zhang  Weston T. Wiebe 《Journal of Intercultural Communication Research》2017,46(4):330-345

From the theoretical perspectives of intergroup contact, predicted outcome value (POV), and similarity-attraction, this study examined U.S. host nationals’ (N = 342) communicative behaviours in a recent initial encounter with an international student and attitudes toward the student’s cultural group as a whole. Testing of two models indicated the significant sequential mediator effects of perceived similarity-social attraction and POV-social attraction between communication variables (e.g. amount of communication exchange in both models, self-disclosure in model 1, and information seeking in model 2), and intergroup attitudes (e.g. behavioural attitudes). Findings in general demonstrated that contact effects in the intercultural context varied according to specific measures of communication, the mediating mechanisms, and intergroup attitudes.  相似文献   

Gender equality in the Olympic Movement: not a simple question,not a simple answer     

Alexandra Avena Koenigsberger 《体育哲学杂志》2017,44(3):329-341

This article explores the strategies followed by the International Olympic Committee for the achievement of gender equality. It is argued that this international body can go beyond simply adopting an equality of opportunities approach to gender equality. It suggests which other strategies can be incorporated for which it draws on the different ways of understanding gender equality in gender political theory.  相似文献

On the elephant in the room: toward a generative politics of place on race in academic discourse     

Baudelaire Ulysse  Theodorea Regina Berry 《International journal of qualitative studies in education》2016,29(8):989-1001

Abstract

In our conceptual essay, we draw on an exchange between a White scholar and a group of panelists on Critical Race Theory at an international conference. Taking up this exchange as our point of departure, we work in dialectical and multidimensional ways between the essentialized politics of place on race and critical anti-essentializing foundations in recent Critical Race Feminism and Critical White Studies’ literatures. Working the dialectics and multidimensionality of the place that race makes in academic discourse, we recognize and ethically work through the essentialized politics of place in advancing anti-essentializing understandings of race. In articulating these anti-essentializing understandings, our conceptual essay drives at the notion of a generative politics of place on race in academic discourse. A generative politics of place holds essentialized realities and anti-essentializing foundations of race in dialectical and multidimensional tension for teaching, learning, and discussing race in local, national, and international contexts.  相似文献   

社区—社会体育组织—社会体育指导员联动运行机制研究     

向祖兵  李骁天  汪流 《北京体育大学学报》2017,40(9):23-28

摘要：主要采用文献资料法，以社会嵌入理论为视角，探析“社区—社会体育组织—社会体育指导员”联动运行机制及其实施过程中急需解决的核心问题和实施策略。研究提出：社区体育组织形式有效地吻合了全人群和全生命周期为立足点的全民健身要求；“社区—社会体育组织—社会体育指导员”联动运行必须以“社区嵌入社会”和“社会体育指导员嵌入社会”为理念，以社会体育组织为核心开展工作；联动运行不仅限于基层社区内部，而且还要通过以社会体育组织为核心纽带实现基层社区体育横向网络和国家、省、市级纵向网络交互联系的社区体育网络体系；联动运行的实践是政府规划体育公共服务项目并实施监管，社会体育组织实施项目，社会体育指导员全职融入社会体育组织提供人力资源保障；联动运行的关键是实现社会体育组织实体化和社会体育指导员职业化；联动的实施策略是通过在全社会实施认知性嵌入、文化性嵌入、政治性嵌入、结构性嵌入，构建与联动相适应的社会环境。为今后社区体育的组织与管理提供理论借鉴。  相似文献   

‘Playing with space’: a conceptual basis for investigating active sport tourism practices     

Valérian Geffroy 《Journal of Sport Tourism》2017,21(2):95-113

ABSTRACT

This paper proposes a conceptual tool, the expression ‘playing with space’, for the analysis of active sport tourism as a meaningful social practice. The expression issues from practice theories and pragmatic understandings of space, which emphasize the processual and contextual dimensions of human action and seek to seize altogether the corporealities and shared conceptions that constitute action. On such views, sport tourists are considered as reflexive and embodied beings, enjoying sensations, mobilities and places, and constantly (re)making sense of their own practices. I argue that the notion of ‘play’ allows for a comprehensive understanding of the ways active sport tourists engage with space, where space is viewed as an object or material for this play. Three major dimensions of active sport tourism are then identified: a set of playful and game-like practices with global space resulting in shared imaginaries and large-scale mobilities; a kinaesthetic play, based on freedom and sensations and deeply engaged in the materiality of the places and the omnipresent media practices that support the other dimensions of play while being fully integrated into the experience of sport tourism. This conceptual framework is a way to better understand the motives and practices of sport tourists; it is also a way to underline wider trends of contemporary leisure cultures: such cultures are increasingly integrated into the daily spheres of activity, increasingly playful and increasingly mediatized.  相似文献   

Relationship Understanding Between Emotional Stability,Self-Disclosure and Social Adjustment     

Nagendra Singh Nehra  Santosh Rangnekar 《Journal of Intercultural Communication Research》2017,46(6):558-578

This paper discusses a survey, carried out by the authors, of 211 employees’ employed in public and private manufacturing organizations in North India to determine if emotional stability acts as a mediator between self-disclosure and social adjustment. Capitalization theory has been used as theoretical framework to examine the proposed relationships. Results indicate that high self-disclosure has positive association with social adjustment. Results also suggest that emotional stability partially mediates self-disclosure and social adjustment relationship. Implications for future research include further examination through additional mediators and other dimensions of self-disclosure from capitalization theory in understudied non-U.S. cultures like India.  相似文献   

时代的回响与无根基的幻想——论《乌有乡消息》的意义与缺憾     

毛秋月  吕石方 《襄樊职业技术学院学报》2010,9(3):79-81

威廉·莫里斯在其乌托邦小说《乌有乡消息》中,表现出作为一个社会主义者的革命性,与马克思恩格斯所倡导的社会主义理论存在着某种契合。但威廉·莫里斯在构建他心目中的理想社会时,又暴露出浪漫有余而理性不足的缺点,这使《乌有乡消息》只能停留在空想的层面上。  相似文献
