Patrick R. Mullen  Dodie Limberg  Victor Tuazon  Shannon M. Romagnolo 《Counselor Education & Supervision》2019,58(2):112-126

The authors report results from a correlational study of 225 school counselor trainees' emotional intelligence and leadership qualities. Higher emotional intelligence correlated with higher leadership self‐efficacy and self‐leadership. The results indicate that emotional intelligence may be a relevant aspect of leadership training for school counselor graduate students.  相似文献   

Activity during prior shock determines subsequent shock-elicited fighting in the rat     

D. Chris Anderson  Charles R. Crowell  Martin B. Wikoff  J. Victor Lupo 《Learning & behavior》1980,8(4):664-672

Two experiments investigated the relationship between activity during shock and the magnitude of subsequent impairment of shock-elicited fighting in the rat. Different levels of intra-shock activity were engendered in two ways. In Experiment 1, differing temporal forms of inescapable shock were employed to produce markedly different levels of activity. In Experiment 2, a passive-escape procedure was used to explicitly reinforce nonmovement during shock relative to a yoked, inescapable shock control. Results indicated that relative to the performance of subjects not previously shocked, fighting impairment was produced only by those prior treatments that promoted reduced intrashock activity. Since one of the prior shock treatments involved inescapable shock but the other did not, these findings may be viewed as strong support for the notion that behavior during shock, rather than uncontrollability, is the critical determinant of the observed impairment effects. There was some suggestion in both studies that shock treatments that resulted in sustained or increased intrashock activity tended to produce augmentation of fighting. Both inhibitory and facilitative effects of prior shock exposure are discussed in terms of an interacting response theory of shock treatment effects.  相似文献   

El lugar de los procedimientos de aprendizaje «espontáneo» en la formación científica     

Victor Host 《Infancia y Aprendizaje》2013,36(19-20):3-19

RESUMEN

Un modelo pedagógico informal, basado únicamente en los aprendizajes espontáneos, no es suficiente para alcanzar los objetivos que caracterizan al pensamiento científico. Hay que encontrar una forma de articular los aprendizajes espontáneos y los aprendizajes sistemáticos, en el marco de la pedagogía activa. Se propone un modelo pedagógico basado en favorecer una serie de actividades funcionales de investigación en una situación de autonomía que responda a las necesidades de aprendizaje del alumno y sobre las cuales se construyan las redes conceptuales. Los aprendizajes sistemáticos (para la adquisición de conocimientos o de habilidades) intervienen en diferentes momentos de este proceso. Realizando la investigación didáctica adecuada, este modelo de aprendizaje puede llegar a ser operativo.  相似文献   

Cognitive Development and Comprehension of Physics Concepts     

Victor Y. Billeh  Khalil Khalili 《International Journal of Science Education》2013,35(1):95-104

Summaries

English

The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to investigate the cognitive development of llth‐grade science students in Jordan; and (2) to investigate the relationship between cognitive development of science students and their comprehension of concrete and formal physics concepts.

The sample of this study consisted of 389 secondary science students (209 males and 180 females) of the school year 1979‐1980. Cognitive development of the students was measured by an Arabic version of the Longeot Test. Comprehension of physics concepts was assessed by an achievement test constructed by the researchers and validated by teachers of physics and the science supervisor in the Irbid district of Jordan.

The study did not reveal any significant difference between males and females in cognitive development. Moreover, it revealed that only 17% of the students were formal thinkers, whereas 52% were concrete thinkers.

The 2×3 ANOVA revealed that cognitive level was a highly significant factor in the comprehension of both concrete and formal concepts. It also revealed that while sex was not a significant factor in the comprehension of concrete concepts, it was a significant factor in the comprehension of formal concepts. The interaction between sex and cognitive level was not significant in the comprehension of both types of concepts.  相似文献   

Argument-Driven Inquiry as a Way to Help Undergraduate Students Write to Learn by Learning to Write in Chemistry     

Victor Sampson  Joi Phelps Walker 《International Journal of Science Education》2013,35(10):1443-1485

This exploratory study examined how undergraduate students’ ability to write in science changed over time as they completed a series of laboratory activities designed using a new instructional model called argument-driven inquiry. The study was conducted in a single section of an undergraduate general chemistry lab course offered at a large two-year community college located in the southeast USA. The intervention took place over a 15-week semester and consisted of six laboratory activities. During each laboratory activity, the undergraduates wrote investigation reports, participated in a double-blind group peer review of the reports, and revised their reports based on the reviews. The reports written during each laboratory activity were used to examine changes in the students’ writing skills over time and to identify aspects of scientific writing that were the most difficult for the undergraduates in this context. The reviews produced by the students during each report were used to evaluate how well undergraduates engage in the peer-review process. The results of a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the reports and reviews indicate that the participants made significant improvements in their ability to write in science and were able to evaluate the quality of their peers’ writing with a relatively high degree of accuracy, but they also struggled with several aspects of scientific writing. The conclusions and implications of the study include recommendations for helping undergraduate students learn to write by writing to learn in science and new directions for future research.  相似文献   

Peer Judgments of Teaching Competence as a Function of Field Independence and Dogmatism,     

James B. Victor 《Journal of Experimental Education》2013,81(3):10-13

The theoretical relationships among field independence, dogmatism, and a peer judgment criterion of professional competence were examined. The subjects were master’s level interns in a training program. The data illustrate the reliability of the criterion and indicate that these interns differentiate between professional competence judgments and more interpersonal judgments when making peer choices. Neither dogmatism nor field independence alone predicts the criterion, but the interaction term for the two variables significantly predicts the criterion. It is the field dependent/highly dogmatic person who is chosen less often by his peers, while the field dependent/low dogmatic person is chosen more often.  相似文献   

Non-abandonment as a foundation for inclusive school practice     

Michal Razer  Victor J. Friedman 《Prospects》2013,43(3):361-375

The authors of this article describe an essential feature of inclusive educational practice: non-abandonment. When students’ needs and difficult behavior are overwhelming, teachers may abandon them emotionally as a defensive reaction to their own experience of emotional distress and helplessness. Non-abandonment represents a constructive strategy for dealing with these students based on the psychodynamic concepts of containing and holding. The authors provide a theoretical grounding for the processes of abandonment and non-abandonment, and then illustrate how these two processes play themselves out in school practice, drawing on action research conducted with educators in Israeli schools. They then describe eight elements in an active strategy of non-abandonment. These are: (1) make a conscious choice to assume professional responsibility for these students; (2) “stand by” students whose behaviour leads others to abandon them; (3) reframe self-defeating ways of thinking to open new avenues for action; (4) attempt to understand students’ real needs, including emotional ones; (5) adapt teaching practice to meet these needs, even going beyond traditional pedagogy; (6) create school frameworks in which teachers can systematically reflect on and improve practice; (7) address teachers’ emotional needs by making their own negative feelings openly discussable; and (8) promote teamwork and supportive relations among school faculty based on honest feedback and mutual non-abandonment.  相似文献   

A Theory of Sport and Politics     

Victor D. Cha 《国际体育史杂志》2013,30(11):1581-1610

The study of international relations purports to explain how nation-states and individuals interact around the globe. Yet one major area of such interaction – international sport – remains exceedingly understudied. This in spite of the fact that countries have gone to war over sport, fought for sovereign recognition through sport, and that citizens around the world have it as a daily part of their lives. Indeed it is astounding that a phenomenon that matters so much has been so little studied by a field that purports to explain relations between states and humans around the world. These deficiencies became more apparent in 2008 when we witnessed the world's biggest country hosting the world's biggest sporting event. The Beijing Olympics, though entertaining and exciting, showed how little we have thought about the link between sport and international politics. This article introduces a framework for understanding the link between sport and politics. Its point of entry is to argue that many of the questions about how China portrayed itself during the Olympics and whether the Games marked China's rise as a responsible power cannot be answered without first understanding how sport in general is related to a country's political development, and its sense of nationhood. My arguments do not represent new breakthroughs in political science, rather I attempt merely to offer a systematic way of thinking about how sports and the Olympics matter in world politics through three inter-related causal pathways relating to a country's sense of self, its diplomacy, and its capacity for change.  相似文献   

Transient VO2 Characteristics in Children at the Onset of Steady-Rate Exercise     

Patty S. Freedson  Thomas B. Gilliam  Stanley P. Sady  Victor L. Katch 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(2):167-173

Abstract

The transient oxygen uptake (VO₂) response during the initial phase of exercise was investigated in 28 children (mean age ± SD = 10.2 ± 2.28 years) during constant load submaximum bicycle ergometer exercise (mean power output ± SD = 56 ± 4.0 watts; mean VO₂ ± SD = .92 ± .141 [mdot] min^-1). The VO₂ half-time (VO₂ - t½) averaged (± SD) 34.8 (± 12.70) sec which is similar to that observed in adults. Examination of the VO₂-t ½ response as it related to age (7 to 14 years) showed that younger children attained steady-rate VO₂ more quickly than older children (r = .77 between age and VO₂-t½, P < .05). Body size, maturational level, exercise intensity, cardiorespiratory factors, and anaerobic potential are suggested as possible factors accounting for the positive age vs VO₂-t ½ relationship.  相似文献   

Science Education at the National Institute for Pedagogical Research,Paris, France     

Victor Host 《International Journal of Science Education》2013,35(2):243-248

This article explores the nature of a continuing mismatch between curriculum reform rhetoric in science education and actual classroom practice. Lack of philosophical consensus about the nature of science (NOS); lack of appropriate curriculum guidance, classroom materials and pedagogical content knowledge for NOS teaching; teachers’ personal theories of learning; and the realities of classroom constraints are all implicated as interacting factors that contribute to the mismatch. Because curriculum policy is political, with pressure brought to bear by many interest groups, it is suggested that the science teaching community cannot adequately address the issues raised in the absence of wider community debate and support.  相似文献
