中学生聚合思维发展特点的研究

聚合思维作为创造力的一个组成部分,到底具有什么样的发展特点,与创造力发展趋势之间存在何种异同,男女生之间又有何差异,是许多研究者试图解决和正在努力解决的问题。与此同时,编制有效的、适合中国国情的聚合思维测量量表,了解中学生聚合思维能力的发展特点,无疑是很有现实意义的。本研究用量表法对3311名中学生的聚合思维的发展特点进行了研究。结果表明:中学生聚合思维处于稳定的上升趋势,尤其是初中阶段进步速度较快,而高中阶段聚合思维进入了平缓发展的阶段;其中逻辑性和概括性发展的总趋势基本相同;中学生在图形概括性、言语概括性和概括性以及聚合思维总分这四个维度上男生显著高于女生;有创造力培养特色的地区在除时间逻辑性维度外的其他维度上均明显地高于无创造力培养特色的地区。     

发散性思维的年龄差异及“位置法”记忆训练的作用

该研究的目的是探讨发散性思维的年龄差异以及“位置法”记忆训练对发散性思维的迁移作用。训练组为经过记忆训练的青年人24名,老年组20名,对照组为相匹配的青年人24名、老年人19名。结果表明:(1)在图形、符号、语义三方面的流畅性、变通性和独特性上,老年组均很显著地比青年组差。青年组的个别差异较大,老年组的更大,尤其是独特性。(2)青年训练组的图形流畅性、独特性及语义的独特性成绩显著优于其对照组,老年训练组图形的变通性有优于其对照组的趋势(P=.052),说明“位置法”记忆训练对发散性思维有一定的间接迁移作用,尤其是对青年人。(3)发散性思维与想象力、数字符号、训练前和训练后词的记忆以及图形的记忆成绩均有很显著正相关。而词汇成绩只与训练组两项发散性思维有显著相关。     

意象思维与躯体化症状：疾病表达的文化心理学途径

意象思维是中国人的传统思维模式, 它通过观物取象和取象比类的方式认知世界、推演联系。这种思维模式塑造了中国人特有的身心不分而非两分的身体观、疾病观和治疗观。在中国人的观念中, 身体不仅仅是一具生理躯体, 还具有气、阴阳、五行等本土概念所体现的弥合物质与精神、联结生理与心理的模糊性与开放性。人们在表达疾病感觉时通常不分生理与心理, 任何一方面出现不适感觉即可认为自己生病, 在面对心理医生时也倾向于同时报告躯体状况与心理感觉, 从而使得临床报告出现较高的躯体化报告率。这正是文化心理影响疾病表达的体现。这也使得疾病不仅是一种医学现象, 也是一种文化现象; 医学不仅需要生理知识, 也需要人文知识。     

临床肺减容术发展历程中的矛盾思辨

晚期肺气肿是进行性恶化的常见呼吸系统疾病。由于内科药物治疗不能彻底遏制疾病的自然进程,外科肺减容术应时而生。但手术治疗有着与生俱来的缺点,因此内科介入肺减容术基于相似的机理出现了,并可与外科手术序贯应用。这种矛盾双方的对立与统一促进了该领域的发展,也是一种解决临床问题的重要辩证思维。     

Chapter 13: Live a Little Before You Die a Lot: Creative Living in the Later Years

SUMMARY

Calling for a radical new paradigm for living the latter third of life, this article suggests that persons can continue to grow, improve, create, and experience a quality of life never known by previous generations of older persons. Issues such as freedom, courage, adaptability, and expansiveness, along with an openness to God's transforming power, are suggested as a means of accomplishing this goal.     

脂肪细胞因子与2型糖尿病的防治

脂肪细胞因子与2型糖尿病并发症关系密切,随着对胰岛素抵抗(IRS)在2型糖尿病作用的认识,脂肪细胞因子的提出,使2型糖尿病并发症防治观念发生了根本的转变,提出了2型糖尿病并发症关防治新策略:从以降糖治疗为主到全面综合防治。对脂肪细胞因子和脂肪细胞因子与2型糖尿病并发症的关系的认识,体现了循证医学的思想和创新思维的启动。     

Identifying the Creative Act in Advertising: A Study on Naïve People's Awareness of Restructuring

This study investigates whether laypersons can distinguish between creative and non-creative artifacts, identify when creativity emerges, and be aware of the merit to be attributed to those who conceive a creative idea. Study 1 analyzed a creative and a non-creative version of two advertisements. In the creative version, there was an ideational process of advertising drafts where the first meaning changed, whereas in the non-creative version the original meaning did not change. Forty undergraduates were asked to judge beauty and originality of each draft and the contribution that graphics managers gave to the outcome. Non-creative changes did not affect beauty and originality ratings, whereas creative modifications increased originality, but not beauty score. Merit was attributed to the graphics manager who transformed the original meaning. In Study 2, one hundred twenty-eight participants evaluated four combinations of textual (creative/noncreative) and iconic (creative/non-creative) elements which were added to the advertisements. Again, the creative, but not the non-creative, contribution to drafts was acknowledged regarding originality by participants. Findings suggest that people can recognize the presence of creativity when it develops and the restructuring mechanism that supports it.
