SHAUNA MC GILL 《Support for Learning》2011,26(1):4-12

This research is designed to provide information for participants, facilitators and policy makers in the area of Extended Schools. Its salient purpose is to investigate and examine the feelings, beliefs and attitudes of teachers and parents involved in the development of the Extended Schools project in Northern Ireland. The Extended Schools project was formally launched by the Northern Ireland Secretary of State on 7 March 2006, and aims to provide a wide range of services and activities in school with the intention of helping to meet the needs of children, their families and the wider community. The qualitative approach was deemed the most appropriate methodology for gathering data.  相似文献   

Childhood sexual abuse by representatives of the Roman Catholic Church: A prevalence estimate among the Dutch population     

《Child abuse & neglect》2015

Estimates of the extent of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) within in the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) in the general population are difficult to find. The independent Commission of Inquiry into sexual abuse of minors in the RCC in the Netherlands collected population-based data to estimate its prevalence. A large random online population sample was surveyed using a two-phase stratified sampling procedure. In Phase 1, 34,267 subjects aged 40 years and older were screened for childhood exposure to sexual abuse by non-family members, a history of institutionalization and a Roman Catholic upbringing. In Phase 2, a stratified subset of 2,462 subjects was assessed to obtain more detailed target information about sexual abuse reports within the RCC. We employed multiple imputation for the estimation of RCC CSA in the original Phase 1 sample. The prevalence of non-familial CSA in general (14.0%) was higher among women (17.2%) than among men (10.6%). The prevalence of CSA within the Dutch RCC (1.7%) was higher among men (2.7%) than among women (0.7%). As expected, older subjects reported more often CSA in the RCC than their younger counterparts. Respondents who stayed for some time in RCC run institutions for education or child protection had a higher risk to report sexual abuse. Although sexual abuse of minors by representatives of the RCC was a structural problem during a period that the Church was highly influential in the Netherlands, the estimated prevalence of the phenomenon is only a fraction of the prevalence rate of non-familial CSA.  相似文献   

Cultural Identification and Religious Identification Contribute Differentially to the Adaptation of Australian Adolescent Muslims     

《Int J Intercult Relat》2016

Australian Muslims are generally perceived as a devalued group in Australia and the public attitudes towards them are generally negative. This context raises questions about belonging and adaptation among Australian adolescent Muslims. The current study investigated how adolescent Muslims relate to their heritage culture, religion, and Australian culture, and which of these three factors is most important to adolescent Muslims’ psychological and socio-cultural adaptation. The study employed a mixed-method design. A total of 321 high school Muslim students (149 males and 172 females) aged between 14 and 18 years completed self-report questionnaires, and a subset sample of 18 students in the same age range, evenly split between males and females, participated in semi-structured interviews. The study revealed a hierarchical pattern of identification among Australian adolescent Muslims, with attachment to their religion being the most important, followed by heritage culture identification and being Australian in third place. Australian adolescent Muslims’ religious identification was perceived overall as more crucial to their socio-cultural and psychological adaptation, than their heritage culture identification or Australian identification. There was an overall modest contribution of Australian identification to adolescent Muslims’ adaptation. This might be connected with the relatively less attachment they show to their Australian identity due maybe to perception of being the target of prejudice, an issue that can be addressed by implementation of prejudice reduction strategies.  相似文献

从《诗经》看周人的宗教哲学观     

樊国萍 《毕节学院学报》2003,21(1):81-84

集周代社会诗歌文大成的《诗经》 ,既是我国古代的一部光辉文学著作又是周代社会的一部百科全书。然而前人多从文学的角度去研究其价值 ,而很少涉及到它所反映的其他社会内容 ,例如周人的宗教哲学观等。从《诗经》的大量篇章中 ,论证周人宗教哲学观在《诗经》的表现并进而分析周人之宗教哲学与殷人宗教哲学的相承相因相革的关系 ,从而论述周人宗教哲学反映于《诗经》的内容 ,是周人对殷人宗教哲学的继承和发展。  相似文献   

从《岐海琐谈》看温州民间信仰     

刘同彪  蔡克骄 《温州大学学报(社会科学版)》2006,19(2):7-13

明代温州人姜准撰写的《岐海琐谈》,记载了大量宋元明时期的温州民间信仰资料,其内容涵盖神灵信仰、鬼怪信仰和巫卜类信仰三类,是研究温州地区民间信仰的重要文献。时过境迁,但《岐海琐谈》中所记载的许多民间信仰依然广泛存在于现代化的温州社会中,传统的民间信仰发挥着现代化社会所必需的某些社会功能,传统民间信仰的衰萎也将是一个相当长的历史过程。  相似文献

中世纪天主教信仰的仪式化   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

刘城 《首都师范大学学报(社会科学版)》2002,(4):11-19

第四次拉特兰宗教会议为天主教会规定了统一的礼拜仪式 ,七项礼拜仪式将天主教宗教信仰演绎成各种外在的物化仪式。在当时社会文化水平低下 ,识字人口不多的情况下 ,这种仪式化的祈祷方式有助于天主教徒学习并感知天主教的基本教义。七项礼拜仪式与教徒的日常生活密切相关 ,定期出席礼拜仪式是中世纪天主教徒的生活方式。英国中世纪教会借助于强制性地要求教徒出席礼拜仪式的办法 ,实现对社会日常生活的规范。然而宗教信仰的仪式化导致世俗身份的教徒在宗教信仰上对教会的依赖 ,天主教最终演变成了以教职界精英为中心的宗教信仰。这种发展趋势是引发 1 6世纪欧洲宗教改革的原因之一 ,马丁·路德首倡的“唯信称义”主张在很大程度上是为了纠正中世纪天主教重礼仪、轻信仰的倾向 ,将基督教还原成普通民众的宗教信仰  相似文献   

Teacher and school characteristics and their influence on curriculum implementation     

Gillian H. Roehrig  Rebecca A. Kruse  Anne Kern 《科学教学研究杂志》2007,44(7):883-907

Reform‐based curriculum materials have been suggested as a mechanism to make inquiry‐based instruction more prevalent in secondary science classrooms, specifically when accompanied by comprehensive professional development (Loucks‐Horsley, Hewson, Love, & Stiles, 1998 ; Powell & Anderson, 2002 ). This research examines the implementation of a reform‐based high school chemistry curriculum in a large, urban school district. We explicitly consider the role of the teachers' knowledge and beliefs in their implementation of the reform‐based chemistry curriculum, as well as school level factors. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected in the form of beliefs interviews and classroom observations from 27 high school chemistry teachers. Analysis of the data revealed that implementation of the curriculum was strongly influenced by the teachers' beliefs about teaching and learning, and the presence of a supportive network at their school sites. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
