Children’s social interactions are often dependent upon the setting or context in which they occur. The current study explored
the school bus as a unique context for social interaction. One hundred and fifty-seven elementary school students (78 males
and 79 females), in grades 3, 4, and 5, completed a questionnaire concerning the rate and types of prosocial and aggressive
behaviors that occur on the school bus ride. Overall, findings indicated that students were prosocial more often on the school
bus than they were aggressive. Regarding the types of social behaviors, differences found in the current study were distinctive.
Participants mentioned non-traditionally studied prosocial behaviors (e.g., companionship and benevolence) more often than
traditionally studied behaviors (e.g., sharing and helping). In addition, participants mentioned physical aggression more
often among their female peers than among their male peers. This study reveals the importance of context in understanding
children’s social behaviors. It is concluded that the present results have important implications for the school bus context
and for future research on children’s social interactions.

The present study experimentally examined how counselor perceptions of hypothetical students are affected by student gender
and socioeconomic status (SES). Results showed that counselors perceive students from low SES backgrounds as having less promising
futures and lower math abilities. Counselors also rated female students as lower in math abilities than male students. Our
results indicate that institutions should consider providing more school counselor training to reduce bias based on gender
and SES.

The present study tested whether the perceived academic values of a school moderate whether highly curious students thrive
academically. We investigated the interactive effects of curiosity and school quality on academic success for 484 Hong Kong
high school students. Chinese versions of the Curiosity and Exploration Inventory, Subjective Happiness Scale, and Rosenberg
Self-Esteem scales were administered and shown to have acceptable measurement properties. We obtained Hong Kong Certificate
of Education Examination (HKCEE) scores (national achievement tests) from participating schools. Results yielded Trait Curiosity × Perceived
School Quality interactions in predicting HKCEE scores and school grades. Adolescents with greater trait curiosity in more
challenging schools had the greatest academic success; adolescents with greater trait curiosity in less challenging schools
had the least academic success. Findings were not attributable to subjective happiness or self-esteem and alternative models
involving these positive attributes were not supported. Results suggest that the benefits of curiosity are activated by student
beliefs that the school environment supports their values about growth and learning; these benefits can be disabled by perceived
person-environment mismatches.

Racial asymmetry, the circumstance of having a teacher’s race differ from that of his or her student’s race, is often considered
important because most Black students are taught by White teachers. This paper analyzes data from a nationally representative
sample of students and teachers to ascertain the extent to which Black and White teachers differ in their evaluations of the
work habits of their Black pupils. Unlike most other investigations on this topic, we explored the likelihood that subject
matter and school demographics influence teacher-student relationships beyond the more visible factors of racial symmetry
or asymmetry. Our analyses of NELS: 88 data using this framework reveal an inconsistent racial effect on teachers’ evaluations
of Black students. The ratings of African American pupils by both Black and White teachers seem to be influenced by both the
academic subject they teach and the demographic characteristic of the school. We discuss these findings and suggest avenues
for further study.

The assumption that high level functioning is characterized by a great deal of autonomy is central to some major theories
of moral development [Kohlberg (in T. Lickona (ed.) Moral development and behavior: Theory, research and social issues, 1976); Piaget ( The moral judgment of the child, 1932)] and to the self-determination theory of motivation [Ryan and Deci ( The American Psychologist, 55, 68–78, 2000)]. Based on these theories, we hypothesized that students’ perceptions of their teachers as autonomy supportive,
mainly in the form of encouragement of critical thinking, and perhaps also choice, would be positively associated with students’
advanced moral judgment. Data collected from 12th grade students in two regular schools and two democratic schools supported
this hypothesis. Results also showed that being a student in a democratic school (as opposed to a regular one) was associated
with autonomous moral judgment, and that this association was mediated by students’ perceptions of teachers as encouraging
criticism, but not choice. A possible implication is that programs of moral education should explicitly promote teachers’
inclination to encourage critical thinking in their students.

The purpose of this study was to describe how dropouts navigate their educational journeys. Eighty dropouts participated to
individual interviews which were recorded and transcribed. The data analysis yielded three broad categories in answering the
research question. Setting the stage in the family and the school, the dropouts described their teetering between in and out of school contexts and proceeded to explain how they ended their educational journey. For 20 dropouts, family turmoil represented a pervasive force negatively influencing their schooling. For 24 dropouts, problems
in school set the stage for dropping out. Teetering represented juggling strategies to prolongand to sabotage the journey, while the end of the journey occurred as a result of a pivotal moment (48%) or a gradual fade out (52%) from the school context.

The present study was designed to examine if individualism, a core characteristic of Western societies, is socially valued
in two fundamental institutions: Family and school. Parents and teachers of fourth graders (primary school), sixth graders
(junior high school) and tenth graders (high school) completed an Individualism Scale (covering the main factors of self-realization,
autonomy, emotional independence and social differentiation) which was adapted for each grade. For each item, they had to
choose the answer their child, or students, would need to give in order to make a good, or bad, impression. The results showed
that individualism is valued differently as a function of the evaluator. Parents valued it in their children (with the exception
of sixth graders) although teachers actually devalued it in their students. Additionally, individualism appeared as a multifaceted
phenomenon since its different components were not judged consistently.

We conducted this study to determine the relationship between math preference and mastery for five middle school students
with autism spectrum disorders. We randomly presented several math addition and subtraction problem formats to determine the
students’ preferences. Results indicated that preference was idiosyncratic across students. In addition, preference was not
related to mastery in some students. Results are discussed within a theoretical framework of matching law. Implications for
practitioners are discussed.

This Husserlian transcendental-phenomenological investigation of interkinaesthetic affectivity first clarifies the sense of
affectivity that is at stake here, then shows how Husserl’s distinctive approach to kinaesthetic experience provides evidential
access to the interkinaesthetic field. After describing several structures of interkinaesthetic-affective experience, I indicate
how a Husserlian critique of the presupposition that we are “psychophysical” entities might suggest a more inclusive approach
to a biosocial plenum that includes all metabolic life.

This paper considers the claim that perceptual experience is “transparent”, in the sense that nothing other than the apparent
public objects of perception are available to introspection by the subject of such experience. I revive and strengthen the
objection that blurred vision constitutes an insuperable objection to the claim, and counter recent responses to the general
objection. Finally the bearing of this issue on representationalist accounts of the mind is considered.

Thousands of psychologists teach in U.S. medical schools, and these psychologists are responsible for ensuring that the medical
students they train are aware of the ways in which research findings from the behavioral and social sciences can enhance the
practice of medicine. In addition, it is imperative that physicians appreciate the limits of their own ability to treat psychological
and psychiatric problems and know when to refer to mental health professionals. This brief article is based on a talk given
by the author at the 2007 American Psychological Association (APA) convention after receiving the Association of Psychologists
in Academic Health Centers (APAHC) Ivan Mensh Award for Distinguished Achievement in Teaching. The paper draws on the personal experiences of the author after three decades spent teaching behavioral science to medical
students, and it introduces readers to the reasoning behind many of the decisions made in planning and developing each of
the author’s four editions of the medical school text Behavior and Medicine.

Democracy is shown to be a non-instrumental good-in-itself (as well as an instrument in securing other goods) by extrapolation
from the Aristotelian premise that humans are political animals. Because humans are by nature language-using, as well as sociable
and common-end-seeking beings, the capacity to associate in public decisions is constitutive of the human being-kind. Association
in decision is necessary (although insufficient) for happiness in the sense of eudaimonia. A benevolent dictator who satisfied all other conditions of justice, harms her subjects by denying them opportunity to associate
in the decisions by which their community is governed.

Relatively little is known about the factor structure of disruptive behavior among preadolescent girls. The present study
reports on exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses of disruptive girl behavior over four successive data waves as rated
by parents and teachers in a large, representative community sample of girls ( N = 2,451). Five factors were identified from parent ratings (oppositional behavior/conduct problems, inattention, hyperactivity/impulsivity,
relational aggression, and callous-unemotional behaviors), and four factors were identified derived from teacher ratings (oppositional
behavior/conduct problems/callous-unemotional behaviors, inattention, hyperactivityimpulsivity, and relational aggression).
There was a high degree of consistency of items loading on equivalent factors across parent and teacher ratings. Year-to-year
stability of factors between ages five and 12 was high for parent ratings (ICC = 0.70 to 0.88), and slightly lower for teacher
ratings (ICC = 0.56 to 0.83). These findings are discussed in terms of possible adjustment to the criteria for children's
disruptive behavior disorders found in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders.

The aim of this study was to propose and test a theory-driven model describing the network of effects existing between parental
style and child involvement in bullying incidents at school. The participants were 377 Greek Cypriot children (mean age 11.6)
and their mothers. It was found that a line of influence exists between maternal responsiveness, over-protection and child
victimization experiences at school. Also, responsiveness predicted low scores of child bullying behaviour. Permissive mothers
(who by definition are high in responsiveness) had children with the highest mean score in victimization experience compared
with mothers who function under the other three parental styles.

As it is traditionally conceived, Just War Theory is not well suited for dealing with nation vs non-nation wars. It thus makes sense to create a second Just War Theory to deal with these wars. This article explores the differences and similarities between the two theories. 相似文献

Studies of perception have focussed on sensation, though more recently the perception of action has, once more, become the
subject of investigation. These studies have looked at acute experimental situations. The present paper discusses the subjective
experience of those with either clinical syndromes of loss of movement or sensation (spinal cord injury, sensory neuronopathy
syndrome or motor stroke), or with experimental paralysis or sensory loss. The differing phenomenology of these is explored
and their effects on intention and agency discussed. It is shown that sensory loss can have effects on the focussing of motor
command and that for some a sense of agency can return despite paralysis.

In this paper we discuss visualizations in mathematics from a historical and didactical perspective. We consider historical
debates from the 17th and 19th centuries regarding the role of intuition and visualizations in mathematics. We also consider
the problem of what a visualization in mathematical learning can achieve. In an empirical study we investigate what mathematical
conclusions university students made on the basis of a visualization. We emphasize that a visualization in mathematics should
always be considered in its proper context.

In this paper we suggest that the ethical duties of business schools can be understood as representing stewardship in the
Aristotelian tradition. In Introduction section we briefly explain the nature of ethical stewardship as a moral guideline for organizations in examining their duties
to society. Ethical Stewardship section presents six ethical duties of business schools that are owed to four distinct stakeholders, and includes examples
of each of those duties. Utilizing this Framework section identifies how this framework of duties can be used in the process of self-examination and transformation within
business schools. Why It Matters section concludes by explaining why the process of examining ethical duties at business schools is vitally important for
both business schools and the larger communities that they serve.

In this research, we review the current level of ethics education prior to college and the emphasis of the Association to
Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) on business ethics education in college using an ‘across the curriculum’ approach.
We suggest that business schools and accounting practitioners can forge a more meaningful partnership than what currently
exists through the traditional business advisory council prevalent at most schools of business. Ethical conduct is inherent
in the practice of public accounting and a hallmark of the accounting profession. Accounting practitioners can play a significant
and positive role in helping business schools to reexamine their obligations to society and their students by actively engaging
in the exchange of views by academics on the necessity for ethics education as well as those of professional accounting bodies. 1
