Stratégies identitaires et structuration des relations de pouvoir en milieu carcéral

This qualitative study explores power between supervisors and of young prisoners in prison. We study the relation between the identity strategies and the use of power by the actors. The data reveal that the relations are primarily based on the exchange between the supervisors and the prisoners. The bases of power used by the supervisors depend on the way in which it reacts to the bad image they have in the institution. In the same way, the supervisors hold account of the situation to control prisoners. These results are discussed by reference to the IPIM model of Raven.     

小学儿童在不同刺激材料中的左右空间方位传递性推理能力及策略分析

采用定性和定量相结合的研究方法,从图形刺激材料和文字刺激材料入手,探查了7岁、9岁、11岁儿童的一维空间方位传递性推理能力的发展水平及其认知策略。主要研究结果表明:(1)小学儿童的一维空间方位传递性推理能力从7岁到9岁,从9岁到11岁都有显著性提高。7岁儿童处于能力的初步形成期,9岁儿童是能力的提高和发展期,11岁儿童已基本具有了一维空间方位单模型条件下的传递性推理能力;(2)小学儿童在图形刺激材料条件下的推理成绩显著优于文字刺激材料条件下的推理成绩;(3)前提数量的增加没有对小学儿童的推理造成显著性影响;(4)随着儿童年龄的增长,模型建构策略的使用者越来越多,但在图形刺激材料和文字刺激材料下,儿童解决问题的策略有所不同。在图形刺激材料下,大部分7岁和9岁的儿童采用知觉策略,11岁儿童中只有少部分人使用这一策略。在文字刺激材料下,模型建构策略是儿童推理的主要策略。少部分7岁儿童使用模型建构策略,大部分9岁儿童和绝大部分11岁儿童使用模型建构策略来解决问题。     

Perceptions of accuracy and effort of decision strategies

A critical tenet of cost-benefit theories of decision strategy choice is that decision makers’ perceptions of accuracy and effort determine strategy selection. However, little research has been conducted on human perceptions of decision strategy accuracy and effort. Instead, researchers have substituted deductively derived inferences on strategy accuracy and effort for perceptions in interpreting decision processes. In this study, we used a survey to study perceptions of decision strategies. The results indicate that participants as a group understood the accuracy and effort dimensions of decision strategies. The participants’ perceptions of the accuracy and effort of various decision strategies largely agreed with researchers’ deductions. However, there was substantial variation across individuals in perceptions of various decision strategies and in the composition of efficient frontiers of decision strategies.     

Persuasive Paradoxes in Cicero's Speeches

The paper first presents a short survey of ancient and modern logical, rhetorical and argumentative approaches (e.g. Aristotle, Quintilian, Quine, Anscombre and Ducrot) studying the properties of paradoxical utterances. This survey is followed by a tentative definition of paradoxes as seemingly contradictory utterances triggering conversational implicatures in the sense of Grice. A specific group of paradoxes, namely, persuasive paradoxes, is further characterized by the specific implicatures which they trigger: the implicatures of persuasive paradoxes serve the interest of the (political) speaker because they either convey a sharp criticism of the political opponent(s) or praise the political activities of the speaker in a highly effective way.The second part of the paper takes a corpus of about 80 paradoxical utterances from Cicero's speeches to show how they are used 1. for a devastating criticism of Cicero's political enemies, 2. a milder form of criticism in the case of his friends, when their political activities have failed, 3. a praise of successful policies of Cicero and his political friends and 4. a defense of unsuccessful activities started by Cicero and his friends.     

Authority-based Argumentative Strategies: A Model for their Evaluation

In this paper, I try to develop an informal model for the analysis and evaluation of argumentative strategies based on active authorities. The explanations necessary to understand the idea of the model and what is modelled are given through the development of the paper. I first give an example of argumentative activities. After that, the main assumption of the model is given. In the third part, the relevant aspects of the argumentative activity are analysed, while the principles of the evaluation are explained in the fourth part. The informal model is presented in the fifth part. In the final remarks, the suggestions for further work are given, as well as a comparison with some related recent works in argumentation theory.     

学生对教学调节策略的公平知觉

以141名中小学生为被试,采用访谈法和问卷法研究学生对教学调节策略的公平知觉及其公平观念。结果表明：(1)学生对教学调节策略的公平知觉存在差异．同伴辅导是学生认为最公平的教学调节策略,其次是丰富。高中生与初中生和小学生对加速和等待两种教学调节策略的公平知觉存在差异。(2)学生的公平观念存在年级差异,公平知觉与公平观念有关。     

3、4岁儿童数数的规则及其策略运用的研究

数数能力是儿童用于建构其数学知识系统的重要工具,是儿童早期获得的最基本的数认知能力之一。本研究以234名3、4岁儿童为被试,采用个别测查法对儿童数数的规则及其策略运用进行了考察。研究发现：(1)随着数列数目的增大,3、4岁儿童数数精确性呈下降趋势,但4岁儿童在各项任务上的数数精确性显着高于3岁儿童;(2)3、4岁儿童在数7、10、15、30任务上的错误表现有显着差别;(3）3、4岁儿童数数策略运用存在显着差别．协方差分析显示。策略使用在数7和数10任务上具有显着效应。
