The current analysis investigates genetic and environmental influences on the bidirectional relationships between temperament and general cognitive ability (GCA). Measures of GCA and three temperament factors (persistence, approach, and reactivity) were collected from 486 children ages 4–9 years (80% white, 50% female) from the Louisville Twin Study from 1976 to 1998. The results indicated a bidirectional dynamic model of temperament influencing subsequent GCA and GCA influencing subsequent temperament. The dynamic relationship between temperament and GCA arose primarily from shared genetic variance, particularly in families with higher socioeconomic status, where input from temperament contributed on average 20% to genetic variance in GCA versus 0% in lower SES families.  相似文献   

#SheBelieves: the use of Instagram to frame the US Women’s Soccer Team during #FIFAWWC

Abstract

The purpose of the study was to examine of the representation of women athletes during the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup. More specifically, we examined how individuals used various event-related hashtags (ie #SheBelieves and #FIFAWWC) on Instagram during the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup to frame identity, and challenge or reinforce gender stereotypes from the bottom-up. A content analysis of athlete photos containing #FIFAWWC (n = 706) and athlete photos containing #SheBelieves (n = 629) revealed that users primarily portrayed women athletes as athletically competent. Specifically, nearly 90% of Instagram posts containing either #FIFAWWC or #SheBelieves portrayed athletes in either athletic action or preparing for athletic action. These findings demonstrate that social media provide an opportunity to challenge gender stereotypes in women’s sports and thereby illustrate that social media users are willing to create their own frames around women athletes.  相似文献

Kissing in the Carnage: An Examination of Framing on Twitter During the Vancouver Riots     

Lauren M. Burch  Evan L. Frederick  Ann Pegoraro 《广播与电子媒介杂志》2015,59(3):399-415

This study examines the frames found on Twitter during the Vancouver riots on June 15, 2011. A textual analysis was employed, and resulted in the identification of 5 frames: fandom, riot propagation, global perspectives, shame on Vancouver, and real fans vs. idiots. The identification of these frames illustrated Twitter's role as a source of news and information, and also an outlet for shaping public opinion and cultural perception. Twitter provided the opportunity to counter public perceptions of Canadian hockey fans and the rioters through displays of dissociation, embarrassment, remorse, and comparisons to substantial global events of political unrest.  相似文献   

Creating an Innovative Interdisciplinary Graduate Certificate Program     

Kathleen L. McFadden  Shi-Jie Chen  Donna J. Munroe  Jay R. Naftzger  Evan M. Selinger 《Innovative Higher Education》2011,36(3):161-176

In response to a growing movement within higher education to provide interdisciplinary educational programs, this study describes the creation of an interdisciplinary graduate certificate program in healthcare policy and management. Building on prior research, we surveyed healthcare executives to examine their perceptions about the need for such a program and the importance of core subject areas. Drawing on our findings as well as the literature on “interactional expertise” and “wicked problems,” we provide a detailed method for launching an interdisciplinary program. Our process may be useful in guiding other institutions interested in setting up new interdisciplinary programs of their own.  相似文献   

Kinematic effects of a short-term fatigue protocol on punt-kicking performance     

Evan Coventry  Kevin Ball  Lucy Parrington  Robert Aughey  Michael McKenna 《Journal of sports sciences》2015,33(15):1596-1605

The punt kick is a fundamental skill used in several team sports; however, there has been a lack of research on how fatigue affects its technique. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of short-term fatigue on punt-kicking performance. Eight elite and sub-elite Australian Football players performed maximal drop punt kicks on their preferred leg prior to, during and after a match-specific fatigue protocol. Optotrak Certus collected kinematic data from kick foot toe-off until ball contact. Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed a significant increase in 20 m sprint times after each short-term protocol, indicating fatigue. Foot speed did not significantly change with fatigue; however, increases in the range of motion at the pelvis and kicking thigh, along with increases in kicking thigh angular velocity, occurred. For the support leg, maximum knee flexion angular velocity increased while there was greater flexion found at the knee and hip, and greater range of motion at the knee. Players are able to make kinematic adaptations in order to maintain foot speed while punting for maximal distance after short-term efforts.  相似文献   

Young Children’s Mathematical Learning From Intelligent Characters     

Sandra L. Calvert  Marisa M. Putnam  Naomi R. Aguiar  Rebecca M. Ryan  Charlotte A. Wright  Yi Hui Angella Liu  Evan Barba 《Child development》2020,91(5):1491-1508

Children’s math learning (N = 217; M_age = 4.87 years; 63% European American, 96% college-educated families) from an intelligent character game was examined via social meaningfulness (parasocial relationships [PSRs]) and social contingency (parasocial interactions, e.g., math talk). In three studies (data collected in the DC area: 12/2015–10/2017), children’s parasocial relationships and math talk with the intelligent character predicted quicker, more accurate math responses during virtual game play. Children performed better on a math transfer task with physical objects when exposed to an embodied character (Study 2), and when the character used socially contingent replies, which was mediated by math talk (Study 3). Results suggest that children’s parasocial relationships and parasocial interactions with intelligent characters provide new frontiers for 21st century learning.  相似文献   

Publication trends for single-case methodology in school psychology: A systematic review     

Keith C. Radley  Evan H. Dart  Aaron J. Fischer  Tai A. Collins 《Psychology in the schools》2020,57(5):683-698

Single-case design (SCD) is a research methodology that may be utilized to establish the presence of a functional relation between an independent and dependent variable. Recent research has found the design to frequently be used within school psychology in the evaluation of intervention procedures. However, the overall prevalence of the design within the broader school psychology literature is unknown. As such, the purpose of the current review was to identify trends in the use of SCD within school psychology publications. Furthermore, the review sought to identify institutions and journals that most frequently published SCD. Finally, the review sought to evaluate trends in experimental rigor of published SCD. Twelve journals were examined, with all publications since their inception reviewed and classified by publication type. Results of the review indicated that SCD was the least frequently published article type. However, data indicate an increase in the prevalence and rigor of the design in recent years. Whereas some journals and institutions were found to have steady rates of SCD publications, others were found to have recent increases in the publication of the design. Implications of findings as they pertain to practitioner practice and adoption of evidence-based practice are described.  相似文献   

Is the disease spreading? A case study of the American Outlaws     

Mike Stocz  Evan Frederick 《Soccer & Society》2019,20(6):836-847

The American Outlaws, a supporter group for the men’s and women’s National Soccer Teams for the United States, has been scarcely examined in academic literature. This research began to fill this void by analysing articles written about the American Outlaws via a textual analysis. This research uncovered if the American Outlaws were exhibiting behaviours similar to those found in hooligan groups, or firms abroad. Texts that were analysed included members’ experiences (current or former, male or female) and reports of the American Outlaws during competitions or group gatherings in various settings. Themes from this analysis included organizational development, passion, non-aggressor violence, beer, and harassment. The implications of these results are discussed in further detail. This article concludes with implications for the American Outlaws organization in its current state, as well as a call for the leadership committee within the American Outlaws to reduce the fraternity atmosphere associated with the organization.  相似文献
