Cross-cultural evidence for the fundamental features of extraversion

Psychologists have not determined the defining characteristics of extraversion. In four studies, the authors tested the hypothesis that extraversion facets are linked by reward sensitivity. According to this hypothesis, only facets that reflect reward sensitivity should load on a higher order extraversion factor. This model was tested against a model in which sociability links the facets. The authors also tested the generalizability of the model in a diverse sample of participants from 39 nations, and they tested the model using widely used extraversion scales. Results of all studies indicate that only facets that reflect reward sensitivity load on a higher order extraversion factor and that this factor correlates strongly with pleasant affect. Although sociability is undoubtedly an important part of extraversion, these results suggest that extraverts' sociability may be a by-product of reward sensitivity, rather than the core feature of the trait.     

我国小学生品德发展关键期研究的述评与展望

关于小学生品德发展关键期的研究是德育心理学研究领域的重要的组成部分之一。本文综述了国内20多年的研究资料,探讨了我国小学生品德发展的关键期、测查工具,阐述了研究中存在的不足,并提出了研究的思路和方向。     

The relation of self-supporting personality, enacted social support, and perceived social support

This study examines the relational model of self-supporting personality, enacted social support, and perceived social support in a sample of 482 Chinese high school students using the Self-Supporting Personality Scale for Adolescent Students (SSPS-AS), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). Results from the cross-sectional structural equation analyses revealed that interpersonal initiative, interpersonal openness, personal openness and personal initiative predicted perceived social support through the mediating role of enacted social support, while interpersonal responsibility, interpersonal flexibility, and personal initiative predicted perceived social support directly. Thus, the hypothesized relational model of personality, enacted social support, and perceived social support was supported. The positive relational schema may be the main underpinning of the relation of self-supporting personality, enacted social support, and perceived social support. Culture also may influence the relation.     

应对与积极情绪研究:意义应对、积极情绪应对、情绪表露和情绪粒度

研究者们发现了应激状态下积极情绪与消极情绪共生的现象,这对于缓解压力提高应对效能有重要意义,积极情绪的研究成为应激和应对领域一个新的方向。为进一步明晰应对过程中积极情绪发生的特点、机制以及它们之间的关系,以应对过程中积极情绪发生的不同阶段为基点,探讨意义指向应对(应对失败之后),积极情绪指向应对(应对初始阶段),以及积极情绪的拓展建构(应对行为之前,并进一步探讨了情绪表露和情绪粒度两个与积极情绪密切相关的因素)。以后研究的重点主要有以下几点:应激源类型的划分,意义指向应对、积极情绪指向应对以及情绪表露和情绪粒度的进一步研究,并积极关注临床实践。     

Charting the Developmental Trajectories of Attention and Executive Function in Chinese School-Aged Children

Attention is a complex domain that has reawakened research interest in recent years. There are relatively few studies that have examined age-related changes across different attention subcomponents, such as selection, maintenance, and control, using large samples covering a wide age range. The present study assessed performance in 466 participants in order to identify the ages at which mature performance was reached across differing attention subcomponents. Furthermore, we investigated whether the nature of the attentional demands or task difficulty predicted the age at which stable levels of performance were reached. The results supported the former rather than the latter alternative.     

在内隐学习条件下任务难度对于判断准确率的影响

本研究利用自行设计的复杂规则产生出不同难度的任务系统,进而通过实验阐明了内隐学习的三个特征;（一）在任务难度极大的情况下,内隐学习并不发挥作用;（二）在任务难度降低到一定程度的时间,内隐学习开始发挥作用,这仿佛是一个“阈限”;（三）随着任务难度逐渐降低,内隐学习的效率也随着提高,但是最科停止在一个较高的水平而再继续上升,可以间接推断,内隐学习获得了样例的具体信息。

论"天人合一"

最近看到<科技中国>2004年11月号和12月号刊登了由该刊和清华大学高等研究中心主办的"中国传统文化对中国科技发展的影响"论坛的报导和在讨论会上各位专家的发言,其中有好几位专家都讲到"天人合一"问题.本文打算就这个问题谈一些想法.     

广辟蹊径觅《韶》音--对《祭孔乐舞》承传齐国《韶》乐的探索

为了继承、弘扬民族优秀传统文化,开掘、利用古代《韶》乐已成为人们关注的焦点。尤其是在《韶》乐的故乡淄博,更是以此倾力打造地域文化品牌。但是,由于事过境迁,乐与时化,实难寻觅古《韶》之容貌,更难找到其遗音。本文通过考证认为,《祭孔乐舞》就是古代《韶》乐的有形载体,《韶》的音乐即随着《祭孔乐舞》的代代承传而保存下来。所以,目前尚存的“祭孔”音乐应是我们探索古《韶》音乐的重要依据。
