Liberalisation,privatisation, modernisation,and schooling in India: an interview with Krishna Kumar     

Chaise LaDousa 《Globalisation, Societies & Education》2007,5(2):137-152

In 2004, India’s Congress Party wrested control of parliament from the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party. I present below an interview conducted with Professor Krishna Kumar, Delhi University, the new Government’s choice for Director of the National Council of Educational Research and Training. Professor Kumar discusses the ways that liberalisation, privatisation and modernisation complexly interact in late twentieth and early twenty‐first century India, paying special attention to their relevance for schooling. Professor Kumar thus links education to some of the themes most salient in the social sciences.  相似文献   

Toward a Sustainable Method for Core Journal Lists: A Test Case Using Journals in Social Work     

Joseph Aubele  Carol Perruso 《期刊图书馆员》2017,73(2):89-106

Determining the core journals in a discipline serves an important role for both academic librarians and departmental faculty. In addition to helping librarians build or weed journal collections, especially in difficult budget years, core lists help departments seeking accreditation, committees evaluating a candidate’s scholarship for tenure and promotion, and faculty choosing publications for their research. They also assist faculty guiding student research in the discipline. However, because of the inexorable changes that have occurred, and will continue to occur, in scholarly communication, no such list can be considered immutable. The purpose of this study is to identify a method by which individual librarians and/or libraries can create a list of journals considered important to a discipline, one that accurately reflects the state of scholarly communication in a field as it relates to the currency and quality of journal literature, and that is sustainable over time. More specifically, our purpose is twofold. First, to develop a sustainable method for defining the universe of potential core titles; and, second, to identify the core titles within that universe. As the result of discussions on this issue with a social work faculty member, the authors used social work journals for developing a methodology that may be applied to other disciplines.  相似文献   

Relational Maintenance and Social Support in the Aftermath of Sudden and Expected Death     

Jonathon K. Frost  James M. Honeycutt  Stephanie K. Heath 《Communication Research Reports》2017,34(4):326-334

Bereavement is a state of grieving after the loss of a loved one. Past research has suggested that bereavement is particularly challenging, both physically and emotionally, in the aftermath of unexpected death. Here, we examine bereavement in which death occurred suddenly, compared to a chronic condition where death was expected, in terms of perceived social support and relational maintenance with the deceased in the form of imagined interactions and social media interactions. Results indicated that individuals experiencing sudden death bereavement were more likely to engage in both postmortem relational maintenance techniques and perceived less social support than individuals in the expected death bereavement group. Results are discussed in terms of previous findings.  相似文献   

Examining Mindlessness and Friendliness in the Evoking-Freedom Compliance-Gaining Technique     

Luminiţa Samson-Secrieru 《Communication Research Reports》2017,34(4):368-375

It was hypothesized that the enhanced compliance rate associated with the use of the “evoking-freedom” technique of compliance gaining may be explained by a causal model in which the use of the technique causes the target to perceive the requester as friendlier, which increases the target’s likelihood of compliance. A research question explored the extent to which targets of the evoking-freedom request had to recall hearing the key phrase for the effect to occur. These issues were examined using previously unreported measures from a larger data collection of a series of six studies in France, Romania, and Russia. Testing the mediation model with the combined sample (N = 720) produced weak fit. Yet the research question was affirmed: Among those exposed to the evoking-freedom phrase, targets who recalled the phrase complied more than those who did not.  相似文献   

网络公共信息服务社会信任的影响因素研究     

罗博  张晋朝 《中国图书馆学报》2017,43(5):84-101

信任是影响公众选择并持续利用网络公共信息服务的重要依据。基于利益相关者理论,本文从原始服务提供者信任、合作者信任和传播者信任三个维度出发,确定影响公众信任网络公共信息服务的直接因素,并基于人际影响、服务质量与制度保障等不同信任基础构建研究模型。研究结果发现,公众对原始服务提供者的信任始终是影响公众信任网络公共信息服务的重要依据,同时,传播者信任与合作者信任也在一定程度上影响公众对网络公共信息服务的信任。此外,这一过程中,公众对不同服务主体的信任基础逐渐从人际影响向服务质量与制度保障转变,其中,以制度保障的影响更为显著。因此,可以通过多种路径增强公众对网络公共信息服务的社会信任水平,改善网络公共信息服务的使用现状。图2。表6。参考文献76。  相似文献   

Anonymity and Interaction in an Online Breast Cancer Social Support Group     

Katie K. Kang 《Communication Studies》2017,68(4):403-421

Despite the benefits of using online social support groups, prior research does not provide a solid understanding of the online factors related to an individual’s supportive interaction. Accordingly, this study aims to explore how various aspects of anonymity predict different levels of social support engagement. The current study uncovers that visually identifiable group members are more likely to get supportive responses than are visually anonymous members. Also, when support group members are visually and discursively identifiable, they are more likely to get supportive messages than those who are visually and discursively anonymous. Additionally, the more identifiable support group members are, the more they receive positive messages. Practical implications for the role of social support group members’ anonymity/identifiability on the overall social support process are presented.  相似文献   

越轨、敌视和社会剥夺——农民工“非理性”讨薪行为的社会学分析     

李兰兰 《河西学院学报》2007,23(6):49-52

通过对多起农民工非理性讨薪事件的观察和研究后认为，农民工非理性讨薪的越轨行为产生的直接原因是敌视情绪，而敌视情绪则是由“社会剥夺感”所造成。基于越轨、敌视与社会剥夺的关系分析，对消除农民工非理性讨薪行为提出了一些建议。  相似文献   

民国时期社会课程史论 ——以小学社会课程标准为核心的考察     

阳光宁 《华东师范大学学报(教育科学版)》2007,25(2):79-86

民国时期是我国学校社会课程设置的起步阶段。以民国政府历次颁布的小学社会课程标准为核心,分析其基本内容和要求,折射民国时期社会科教育的嬗变历程。社会课程理念与实践效果的反差、在“移植的”基础上带有“本土化”倾向、最初是社会变革的成果而最终归宿于政府的政治理念,为当今推进基础教育课程改革提供了有益的借鉴。  相似文献
