Sex-role messages vis-à-vis microcomputer use: A look at the pictures

This study explored the pictoral representation of men, women, boys, and girls in popular computer magazines through content analysis. Issues of three mass market computer magazines (total pages =2,637) were analyzed to determine numbers of men, women, boys, and girls illustrated; roles in which they were portrayed; and whether they were shown using the computer actively, standing by while others used the computer, or rejecting the computer. Many stereotypic portrayals were found: Men appeared in illustrations almost twice as often as women; women were overrepresented as clerical workers and sex objects, while men were overrepresented as managers, experts, and repair technicians. Women were shown significantly more often in a passive role vis-à-vis computers. In mixed-sex illustrations, men were most often shown in the position of authority. Only women were shown rejecting the computer or portrayed as sex objects. Also included are observations regarding the effects of stereotypic portrayals on women/girls and suggestions for further research.     

父母-青少年亲子沟通的研究

父母-青少年亲子沟通已成为家庭与青少年心理发展研究中的一个重要课题,从上个世纪70年代起,西方研究者就开始对亲子互动的内在运行机制——亲子沟通展开了研究。该文研究从亲子沟通的特点（如沟通内容、频率、主动性、沟通问题等）,影响亲子沟通的因素（沟通对象、青少年年龄、家庭环境等）,亲子沟通与青少年的社会适应（自尊、学业、心理健康）、问题行为（犯罪等问题行为）的关系、亲子沟通的研究方法方面进行综述,为我国开展该领域的研究提供一些借鉴。     

The six most essential questions in psychiatric diagnosis: A pluralogue part 2: Issues of conservatism and pragmatism in psychiatric diagnosis

In face of the multiple controversies surrounding the DSM process in general and the development of DSM-5 in particular, we have organized a discussion around what we consider six essential questions in further work on the DSM. The six questions involve: 1) the nature of a mental disorder; 2) the definition of mental disorder; 3) the issue of whether, in the current state of psychiatric science, DSM-5 should assume a cautious, conservative posture or an assertive, transformative posture; 4) the role of pragmatic considerations in the construction of DSM-5; 5) the issue of utility of the DSM ?C whether DSM-III and IV have been designed more for clinicians or researchers, and how this conflict should be dealt with in the new manual; and 6) the possibility and advisability, given all the problems with DSM-III and IV, of designing a different diagnostic system. Part I of this article took up the first two questions. Part II will take up the second two questions. Question 3 deals with the question as to whether DSM-V should assume a conservative or assertive posture in making changes from DSM-IV. That question in turn breaks down into discussion of diagnoses that depend on, and aim toward, empirical, scientific validation, and diagnoses that are more value-laden and less amenable to scientific validation. Question 4 takes up the role of pragmatic consideration in a psychiatric nosology, whether the purely empirical considerations need to be tempered by considerations of practical consequence. As in Part 1 of this article, the general introduction, as well as the introductions and conclusions for the specific questions, are written by James Phillips, and the responses to commentaries are written by Allen Frances.

汉语儿童词语结构意识在阅读理解中的预测作用

以382名小学一、三、五年级学生为被试,进行为期一年的追踪研究,通过分层回归,探索了词语结构意识在儿童阅读理解中作用的发展性变化。结果发现：（1）在控制了性别、瑞文推理、汉字识别、口语词汇以及快速命名和语音意识之后,在三年级T2、五年级和五年级T2发现了词语结构意识对同期阅读理解有独特解释作用,而在一年级、一年级T2和三年级均未发现词语结构意识对同期阅读理解的独特贡献;（2）在控制了性别、瑞文推理、自回归效应以及其他相关变量的作用后,三年级和五年级时的词语结构意识分别对一年后的阅读理解具有独特的预测作用。结果表明,在小学低年级阶段,词语结构意识在阅读理解中的作用还未显现,在小学中高年级阶段,词语结构意识对儿童阅读理解有显著的预测作用。
