中学生学习倦怠与人格关系

采用问卷调查法,对1136名高中学生的学习倦怠进行分析,考察了人口学变量之间的差异,并探讨了学习倦怠各因子与人格之间的关系。结果发现:⑴影响学生学习倦怠的人口学变量有家庭所在地、性别、年级和学校类型。其中家庭所在地单独影响学习倦怠,且是学习倦怠的有效预测变量。性别、学校类型和年级相互作用影响学生的学习倦怠。⑵精神质、内外向、神经质与学习倦怠的各个因子及总分有极其显著的相关,其中N、P是学习倦怠有效的预测变量。     

童年期母亲教养方式与11岁儿童学校适应的关系

通过问卷调查法追踪考察了童年早期到中期母亲教养方式的稳定性和变化,以及童年早中期母亲教养方式对11岁儿童学业成绩和学校适应的预测作用。结果发现儿童从2岁到7岁,母亲教养方式在保护担忧、控制两个维度上出现了显著变化,在其余维度上没有发现显著变化。儿童2岁和7岁时,性别能显著预测其11岁时的学校适应问题。儿童2岁时,母亲鼓励和控制的教养方式能显著预测11岁时儿童的学业成绩及害羞焦虑、挫折耐受性、同伴交往等行为和社交问题。儿童7岁时,母亲保护和控制的教养方式能显著预测儿童11岁时的学业成绩、学习问题及害羞焦虑、挫折耐受性、果敢社交等行为和社交问题。     

Adaptive adjustment of vocational aspirations among German youths during the transition from school to work

The transition from school to work is a central developmental task with long-term implications for the financial and social status of individuals. We argue that dynamic adjustments of aspirations play a decisive role for a successful outcome of the school to work transition, particularly in the context of the German vocational training system. Latent growth curve analyses conducted on the self-reported occupational aspirations of German adolescents (N = 414) surveyed in a 5-wave longitudinal study during their senior school year support this assumption. Based on expectancy-value-models of achievement, we delineated an adaptive trajectory of aspirations as starting off with relatively high aspirations and subsequently gradually downgrading them until s is attained. Such a trajectory of adjustment should maximize both expectancy (i.e., probability of obtaining an apprenticeship position at all) and value (i.e., training position with promotion potential). Finally, we showed empirically that the trajectory conceptually proposed as most adaptive was characteristic for youth who reported phase-adequate goal engagement strategies as suggested by the life-span theory of control.     

Reducing bias in psychometric assessment of culturally and linguistically diverse students from refugee backgrounds in Australian schools: A process approach

The present article examines a process developed within Brisbane Catholic Education to reduce bias in assessment of students from refugee backgrounds when there is a concern about a possible intellectual disability. Several factors impacting upon assessment are described including previous trauma, language, lack of previous schooling and acculturation difficulties. A proactive process (Support Process for the Assistance and Assessment of Students from Refugee Backgrounds) is described involving broad‐based, longitudinal collection of data by the school psychologist as part of a support team. Factors to consider in conducting standardised psychometric assessments are discussed. Strengths and limitations of this process as well as the need for future research into its effectiveness are summarised.     

异地复学震区中小学生PTSD及心理健康状况的调查

创伤后应激障碍（Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD）是指突发性、威胁性或灾难性生活事件导致个体延迟出现和长期持续存在的精神障碍,其临床表现以再度体验创伤为特征,并伴有情绪的易激惹和回避行为,影响患者的心理健康。采用创伤后应激障碍自评量表和症状自评量表对异地复学的震区中小学生进行测量,了解他们的PTSD及心理健康状况。结果表明：震区中小学生PTSD和SCL-90的检出率都较高;不同性别、不同年级学生受地震的负性影响不同,其心理健康状况也有差别     

中小学数学教师数感内隐观的调查研究

该研究以131名中小学数学教师为被试,采用调查分析的方法,编制了数感结构选项表,考察了中小学数学教师的数感结构内隐观。结果显示：中小学数学教师的数感结构内隐观所涉及的范围广泛,经因素分析可以把它概括为6个因素。它们分别是：数学运算、数学认知因素、非书面计算能力、理解数与运算的意义、对数的认识与直觉、数符号表征能力。     

工读学校学生孤独感的特点及其与依恋风格的关系

采用《中学生孤独感问卷》和《关系问卷》,对上海市194名工读学校学生和112名普通学校学生进行调查,结果发现：工读学校学生与普通学校学生在孤独感各维度都存在显著或极其显著的差异;工读学校学生孤独感不存在显著的性别差异;在对不同依恋对象（母亲、父亲和同伴）的依恋风格中,工读学校学生的孤独感更容易受同伴依恋风格的影响。     

Social experience and school bullying

The goal of the present study is to investigate the relationship between school bullying and various aspects of the urban and scholastic environment where participants live, such as sense of community, exposure to dangerous and violent situations within the neighbourhood, perceptions of the safety of the neighbourhood and perceptions of the school environment. The research, performed in Ercolano, a town near Naples, covered the whole of Ercolano's population (n = 734) of 7th, 10th and 13th grade students. Data were analysed using a multivariate analysis of variance. Results showed that bullying role (pure bullies, pure victims, bully victims, not‐involved) is significantly associated with the way subjects perceive their exposure to dangerous and violent situations within the neighbourhood, their relationship with classmates and their relationship with teachers. Pure bullies and bully victims are especially likely to experience dangerous and violent situations in the neighbourhood where they live and have a more negative perception of their relationship with teachers; for pure victims and bully victims, a significant association is obtained with negative perceptions of relationships with classmates. These findings suggest the need for intervention strategies that extend beyond the classroom to the broader community and neighbourhood. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Differential negative reinforcement of other behavior to increase compliance with wearing an anti-strip suit

Using a changing-criterion design, we replicated and extended a study (Cook, Rapp, & Schulze, 2015) on differential negative reinforcement of other behavior (DNRO). More specifically, educational assistants implemented DNRO to teach a 12-year-old boy with autism spectrum disorder to comply with wearing an anti-strip suit to prevent inappropriate fecal behavior in a school setting. The duration for which the participant wore the suit systematically increased from 2 s at the start of treatment to the entire duration of the school day at the termination of the study. Moreover, these effects were generalized to a new school with novel staff and persisted for more than a year. These findings replicate prior research on DNRO and further support the use of the intervention to increase compliance with wearing protective items, or medical devices, in practical settings.     

Individual and Contextual Factors Associated With School Connectedness in the Context of Counseling in Schools

School connectedness refers to students' beliefs that their peers and adults at school care about their learning and themselves as individuals. School connectedness has been widely documented as a significant predictor for positive student outcomes, yet little is known about factors associated with it as an outcome variable. Guided by the advocating student-within-environment framework situated with the social development model, this study explored individual and contextual factors associated with school connectedness among 1,201 students in Grades 4 to 8. Gender, ethnicity, grade level, and social skills were found to be significant individual factors, whereas school support for learning and acceptance of diversity were significant contextual factors. Together, the individual and contextual factors explained 47% of the variance in school connectedness. Our findings also revealed grade-related variability concerning associations between the factors and school connectedness. These findings provide further insights into fostering connectedness in the context of counseling in schools with consideration to students' developmental needs.
