In the framework of the theory of social representations, the study set out to examine how Finnish parents and teachers have
received a major change in educational policy. Surveys on parents' and comprehensive school teachers' views of ongoing school
reforms indicated that current educational discourse is structured by two different representations — a “selective” one and
a “comprehensive” one-which contain two different notions of intelligence — “natural” and “sociorelativistic”. The subjects'
sociai position (socioeducational status and expertise) in the educational hierarchy tended to organize their representations.
The findings indicated that the different groups have different relationships to official educational policy and to the ethos
of educability embodied by the school.

The viability of five prominent explanations for the black–white performance gap (“academic engagement,” “cultural capital,”
“social capital,” “school quality” and “biased treatment”) is examined using NELS data and a LISREL model that adjusts for
clustering of students within schools. Empirical models have typically assessed these factors individually—a practice that probably fosters overestimation of their explanatory power. School quality and biased treatment emerge as
the primary explanations for black–white high school test performance differentials. Access to better-quality schools and
receipt of more stimulating interpersonal “signals” from gatekeepers ensue from racial (and socioeconomic) privilege. Enhanced
test performance in turn ensues from these resources. In essence, the explanations for the racial gap that place more emphasis
on what black and white students “bring to” high school (i.e., specific levels of engagement, cultural and social capital),
seem less consequential to performance differentials than “what happens to” them when they get there (i.e., quality of education
provided, and race-contingent treatment received). 相似文献

Edification 教化 is one of the central concepts of Confucianism. The metaphysical basis of the Confucian edification is the
“philosophical theory” in the sense of rational humanism rather than the “religious doctrine” in the sense of pure faith.
Confucianism did not create a system of ceremony and propriety owned by Confucians only. The system of ceremony and propriety
on which Confucians depend to carry out their social edification is that of “rites and music,” the common life style of ancient
China. After continual metaphysical explanation and elevation, the system of ceremony and propriety and that of rites and
music have undergone a sort of ever-evolving historical fluctuation, and evinced a sort of openness and forgiveness comparable
to that of any other religious form. Compared with typical religious practices, whose ceremonies and rituals that have their
own special fixity and exclusivity, Confucian ceremonies and rituals are fundamentally different. The edification of Confucianism
can be labeled as “edification in the sense of philosophy.” As a “philosophy”, Confucianism’s vision did not focus on cognition
but on completion and realization.

Quasi-experimental evaluation methods promised to provide a way of testing and improving solutions to social problems. These
methods have been found wanting. Alternative approaches, including “pragmatic evaluation,” “naturalistic evaluation,” and
“pluralist evaluation” are also shown to be unsatisfactory. The initial promise of the evaluation movement has been disappointed.
Realistic evaluation is advocated as an alternative to existing forms of evaluation. It is rooted in some European traditions
in epistemology, ontology, and social theory. It offers a framework within which rigorous outcome evaluations can be undertaken
with results that can inform policy and practice.

This paper argues for seeing in-depth news coverage of political, social, and economic issues as “public policy pedagogy.”
To develop my argument, I draw on Nancy Fraser’s democratic theory, which attends to social differences and does not assume
that unity is a starting point or an end goal of public dialogue. Alongside the formation of “subaltern counterpublics” (Fraser),
alternative media outlets sometimes develop. There, members of alternative publics debate their interests and strategize about
how to be heard in wider, mass-mediated public arenas. I address the normative implications of this non-unitary, multiple-publics
model for news journalism, analyzing how current conventions in mainstream news journalism (e.g., “balance” defined as “airing
two extremes”) can restrict public debate and impoverish the public policy pedagogy on offer. I illustrate my arguments with
a case study of media coverage of the creation and implementation of a social justice curriculum in British Columbia, Canada. 相似文献

Teachers facing school failure: the social valorization of effort in the school context 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Maria Cristina Matteucci 《Social Psychology of Education》2007,10(1):29-53
This paper describes two studies concerning teachers’ classroom interventions facing school failure. The role of two main
variables is investigated: the lack of effort as a cause of failure students are held responsible for by teachers, and teacher’s
social representations of intelligence. The first study (Study 1) explored the impact of “lack of effort” causal attribution
for student’s failure on the intervention strategies adopted by 122 high school teachers. Study 2 analyzed the impact of social
representations of intelligence, held by 202 high school teachers, on “lack of effort” causal inference and on behavioral
interventions. Results highlight that teachers mostly choose more severe educational interventions with retributive purpose
when failure is ascribable to an absence of effort expenditure by the student. Moreover, the findings support the role of
teachers’ social representations of intelligence in failure explanations and in educational practices, showing that “lack
of effort” attribution and practices with retributive purpose are predicted by the social representation of intelligence “as
a gift”. Results are analyzed and discussed by considering the effort as a normative parameter of the school environment.

Individualism is not only a Western tradition. In the Zhuangzi we can also identify some elements which may be appropriately attributed to “individualism.” However, due to its particular
cultural and philosophical background, Zhuangzian individualism has unique characteristics, which distinguish it from the
variety of other individualist thoughts that have emerged in the West. Zhuangzi has a dynamic and open view on individual
“self,” considering individuals as changing and unique beings rather than fixed and interchangeable “atoms”; he sets the unlimited
Dao as the ultimate source for individuals to conform to, thus releasing individual mind into a realm of infinite openness
and freedom. The Zhuangzian individualism is “inward” rather than “outward,” concentrating on individual spirit rather than
material interests and rights in social reality. The individualism in the Zhuangzi provides a spiritual space for the development of individuality in ancient China. It also provides an alternative understanding
of individual as an existence. 相似文献

To become an expert in a technical domain means acquiring the tacit knowledge pertaining to the relevant domain of expertise,
at least, according to the programme known as “Studies of Expertise and Experience” (SEE). We know only one way to acquire
tacit knowledge and that is through some form of sustained social contact with the group that has it. Those who do not have
such contact cannot acquire the expertise needed to make technical judgments. They can, however, use social expertise to judge
between experts or expert claims. Where social expertise is used to make technical judgments we refer to it as “transmuted
expertise”. The various kinds of transmuted expertise are described and analysed. 相似文献

This paper is an exploration of how we do things with music—that is, the way that we use music as an “esthetic technology”
to enact micro-practices of emotion regulation, communicative expression, identity construction, and interpersonal coordination
that drive core aspects of our emotional and social existence. The main thesis is: from birth, music is directly perceived
as an affordance-laden structure. Music, I argue, affords a sonic world, an exploratory space or “nested acoustic environment”
that further affords possibilities for, among other things, (1) emotion regulation and (2) social coordination. When we do
things with music, we are engaged in the work of creating and cultivating the self, as well as creating and cultivating a
shared world that we inhabit with others. I develop this thesis by first introducing the notion of a “musical affordance”.
Next, I look at how “emotional affordances” in music are exploited to construct and regulate emotions. I summon empirical
research on neonate music therapy to argue that this is something we emerge from the womb knowing how to do. I then look at
“social affordances” in music, arguing that joint attention to social affordances in music alters how music is both perceived
and appropriated by joint attenders within social listening contexts. In support, I describe the experience of listening to
and engaging with music in a live concert setting. Thinking of music as an affordance-laden structure thus reaffirms the crucial
role that music plays in constructing and regulating emotional and social experiences in everyday life. 相似文献

This investigation most importantly sought to illustrate the use of social science to promote cross-cultural dialogue. Fukuyama
(1992) explained contemporary cultural trends in terms of a triumphant individualism that would overcome all other forms of
social life, including what he described as the “fundamentalist resentment” of Iran. Lasch (1979) more pessimistically diagnosed
Western social arrangements in terms of an emerging “culture of narcissism.” In this study, Iranian and American university
students responded to measures of narcissism, individualist and collectivist values, religious interest, and psychological
adjustment (identity, self-actualization, and self-consciousness). Variables related to a sense of community (collectivist
values, religious interest, and identity) correlated negatively with narcissism in both societies, as did self-actualization.
These data supported a moderate position between the polarized extremes of Fukuyama and Lasch and more importantly demonstrated
how social scientific methods might be useful in creating a “space” for conducting a “dialogue between civilizations.” 相似文献

Understanding the Subjective Point of View: Methodological Implications of the Schutz-Parsons Debate
The bone of contention that divides Alfred Schutz and Talcott Parsons in their 1940–1941 debate is that Schutz acknowledges
an ontological break between the commonsense and scientific worlds whereas Parsons only considers it “a matter of refinement.”
Schutz’s ontological distancing that disconnects the “world of consociates” where social reality is directly experienced in
face-to-face contacts, and the “world of contemporaries” where the Other is experienced in terms of “types” has been crucial
to social scientists. Implicated in the break is that all intellectual attempts to understand experiences of Others must be
based on the “models” constructed in the “world of contemporaries” (or “predecessors”); hence, epistemologically, to grasp
the subjective point of view with a here-and-now understanding is an outright impossibility. Based on a Schutzian perspective,
the author suggests that the sociologist must objectivize the Thou-orientations involved in his/her analysis in order that
s/he can possibility grasp the subjective point of view in objective terms.

Levinas subverts the traditional “ontology-epistemology,” and creates a “realm of difference,” the realm of “value,” “ethic,”
and “religion,” maintaining that ethics is real metaphysics. According to him, it is not that “being” contains the “other”
but the other way round. In this way, the issues of ethics are promoted greatly in the realm of philosophy. Nonetheless, he
does not intend to deny “ontology” completely, but reversed the relationship between “ontology (theory of truth)” and “ethics
(axiology),” placing the former under the “constraint” of the latter. Different from general empirical science, philosophy
focuses more on issues irrelevant to ordinary empirical objects; it does have “objects,” though. More often than not, the
issues of philosophy cannot be conceptualized into “propositions”; nevertheless, it absolutely has its “theme.” As a discipline,
philosophy continuously takes “being” as its “theme” and “object” of thinking. The point is that this “being” should not be
understood as an “object” completely. Rather, it is still a “theme-subject.” In addition to an “object,” “being” also manifests
itself in an “attribute” and a kind of “meaning” as well. In a word, it is the temporal, historical, and free “being” rather
than “various beings” that is the “theme-subject” of philosophy.

This paper argues that Michel Foucault explicitly rejected the model of critique by which he is often understood—by both his
defenders and detractors. Rather than justifying norms that could be said to represent “the people;” judging institutions,
norms, and practices accordingly; and creating programs for others to enact, he theorized and practiced an experimental social
criticism in which specific intellectuals help people work through “intolerable” situations by multiplying the ways they can
think about and act upon them. As Foucault’s work with the prisons in France shows, one way intellectuals can be part of the
experimental transformations social bodies carry out upon themselves is through genealogical work describing the ways problems
have come to be identified—and can thus be transformed. This account of criticism undercuts the problem of justifying a standpoint
of critique that has plagued philosophers and suggests a few concrete means of better aligning theory and practice. 相似文献

Prior research indicates that category labels influence category judgments, but little is known regarding the effects for
familiar categories with significant social consequences. The present studies address this issue by examining the effect of
linguistic form on judgments of illnesses. Both mental and physical illnesses were presented in each of three linguistic forms:
noun, adjective, and possessive phrase. In Study 1, participants were asked to judge the permanence of a set of novel illnesses
that differed in wording (e.g., “He is a baxtermic”; “He is baxtermic”; “He has baxtermia”). In Studies 2 and 3, participants
were asked to judge which forms of wording were most familiar for actual mental illnesses (e.g., schizophrenia) and physical
illnesses (e.g., diabetes). In Study 4, participants were asked to judge the permanence of a set of familiar illnesses that
differed in wording. The results indicated that for novel illnesses, nouns (“is a”) imply greatest permanence and possessive nouns (“has”) imply least permanence. However, for familiar illnesses, permanence judgments are also influenced by how frequently each form appears in ordinary language use. Mental
illnesses are more often expressed with relatively permanent forms (“is” and “is a”) , whereas physical illnesses are more
often expressed with relatively transient forms (“has”). The results demonstrate the importance of both linguistic form and
conventional wording patterns on how categories are interpreted. 相似文献

This article discusses the early psychological traditions developed at Clark University under the guidance of G. Stanley Hall.
Anthropology and cultural psychology are both rooted in the notion that humans are social beings. That idea constituted a
brief moment of theoretical unity between psychology and anthropology in the study of human language in its psychological
functions. In that context, the work of Alexander Chamberlain is explored as a major contribution. Chamberlain—if viewed in
the jargon of our contemporary social scientists—was deeply “interdisciplinary” in his work. Despite the positive meaning
of the term “interdisciplinary” in contemporary discourse about the social sciences, the realities of social organization
of any science entail separation rather than integration. Chamberlain’s work took place in parallel in anthropology and in
developmental psychology under the interdisciplinary emphasis of “child study” as set up by G. Stanley Hall. Hall made child
study the distinctive feature of the “Clark tradition” of psychology. Chamberlain’s work constituted both the beginning and
the end of the (miniscule) “Clark tradition” in anthropology. 相似文献

This study is a laboratory analogue investigation of variables that impinge upon the recall of detail about a simulated act
of armed robbery among “eyewitnesses.” Specifically, this study sought to determine (1) whether recall of detail by Ss who
watch the videotape of a simulated “armed robbery” taken by surveillance camera in a “convenience” store varies according
to (a) the dress and appearance of the presumed “robber,” (b) the gender of the victim of the “robbery,” and/or (c) the gender
of the “eyewitness”; and (2) whether such recall varies according to S’s inventoried psychological “needs.” Ss viewed the
videotape of the simulated robbery under one of four conditions representing variations in the dress and appearance (“status”)
of the alleged offender and the gender of the alleged victim; completed the Personality Adjective Inventory; and responded
to a questionnaire concerning details of the alleged offense. Results indicate that the single statistically significant source
of variance in accuracy of recall of detail is the experimentally manipulated “status” of the perpetrator; gender of victim
and of subject contribute significantly neither in isolation nor in interaction. Inventoried psychological needs for “autonomy”
and “change” are significantly but negatively and weakly correlated with accuracy among women Ss, while “change” alone is
so correlated among men Ss. Findings are interpreted in accordance with theory and research in experimental social psychology
and psychological criminology bearing upon person perception and role expectancy in relation to behavioral stereotypes.

The paper is concerned with how neo-Lockean accounts of personal identity should respond to the challenge of animalist accounts.
Neo-Lockean accounts that hold that persons can change bodies via brain transplants or cerebrum transplants are committed
to the prima facie counterintuitive denial that a person is an (biologically individuated) animal. This counterintuitiveness
can be defused by holding that a person is biological animal (on neo-Lockean views) if the “is” is the “is” of constitution
rather than the “is” of identity, and that a person is identical with an animal in a sense of “animal” different from that
which requires the persistence conditions of animals to be biological. Another challenge is the “too many minds problem”:
if persons and their coincident biological animals share the same physical properties, and mental properties supervene on
physical properties, the biological animal will share the mental properties of the person, and so should itself be a person.
The response to this invokes a distinction between “thin” properties, which are shared by coincident entities, and “thick”
properties which are not so shared. Mental properties, and their physical realizers, are thick, not thin, so are not properties
persons share with their bodies or biological animals. The paper rebuts the objection that neo-Lockean accounts cannot explain
how persons can have physical properties. To meet a further problem it is argued that the biological properties of persons
and those of biological animals are different because of differences in their causal profiles. 相似文献
