A Perspective for Roffers,Cooper, and Sultanoff

Roffers, Cooper, and Sultanoff conclude that there is support for the use of skill-based training methods to increase counselor trainees' skill applications, but there is a great need to assess whether trainees' skills lead to positive client outcome. The author presents a perspective on the extensive evidence that already exists to support the connection between trainees' skills and positive client outcome.     

库恩理论与西方数学史研究

20世纪60年代,托马斯·库恩提出的科学革命理论对自然科学史等诸多领域产生了巨大影响,这种影响也延伸至数学史领域。由于西方数学史自18世纪以来已经建立了一个相对独立的编史体系和研究传统,库恩理论被引入数学编史领域是随着对数学中是否发生过革命库恩理论是否适用于数学史等一些根本问题的激烈争论而开启的。尽管这场始于20世纪70年代的、旷日持久的争论终未能达成一致,但伴随着争论的进行,库恩理论对该领域的影响逐渐扩大和深入。这些影响既体现在学界对于数学史研究的性质和目标等抽象层面的深入反思和重新定位上,也体现在研究主体、研究范畴和研究方法等具体层面的拓展和更新上;其对数学史研究的借鉴价值和实践影响,在近五十年来西方数学史研究趋向的转变以及该领域所取得的丰硕成果中得到了明确的展现。这些影响进一步揭示了关于数学、科学与历史问题的哲学考察对数学史研究的重要性。     

Barry J. Everitt: Award for Distinguished Scientific Contributions

Presents Barry J. Everitt, 2011 winner of the American Psychological Association Award for Distinguished Scientific Contributions. "For distinguished theoretical and empirical contributions to basic research in experimental psychology and neuroscience. Barry J. Everitt's original and elegant research has greatly added to the understanding of monoaminergic and glutamatergic regulation of cortico-striatal-limbic function and its involvement in psychological processes and pathological states, notably addiction. His stellar contributions have included the development of animal models of addiction and groundbreaking studies on learning and memory processes. He has combined sophisticated behavioral approaches with molecular, cellular, anatomical, and psychopharmacological approaches in rodents. His energy and enthusiasm for research, creativity, and outstanding productivity have advanced our knowledge of brain function and inspired several generations of behavioral neuroscientists."
