OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine preschoolers' perceptions of maternal discipline's unfairness. The participants' gender, age, SES, family intactness and sibship size were examined for their possible relevance to such perceptions. METHOD: Five vignettes, describing forms of discipline the literature suggests constitute psychological maltreatment, were presented to 57 preschoolers (27 boys and 30 girls). They included excessive withdrawal of privileges, withdrawal of entertainment, differential treatment of siblings, threatening power assertion, and public humiliation. The children had to decide on the fairness or unfairness of each vignette in which a child was disciplined in each of these ways by his/her mother. They were then asked to offer an explanation for each of their choices. RESULTS: Of the five forms of discipline employed in the vignettes, children judged differential treatment of siblings as more unfair than either power assertion (threatening spanking), or public humiliation. No differences were found for withdrawal of privileges or entertainment. Of the various predictor variables employed, preschoolers from smaller families were more likely to judge threatening to spank as unfair. As well, compared to boys, girls and children from larger families were more likely to judge differential treatment as unfair. Age, SES, and family intactness had no effect on discipline judgements likely because of their limited range. CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that preschoolers can offer views on the fairness or unfairness of parental disciplinary practices, and can differentiate among them. Further, not all forms of parental discipline were viewed by preschoolers as unfair. Yet it has to be appreciated that the vignettes employed here were adapted for younger children, hence they may not have appeared as negative as in studies involving older children and adults.  相似文献   

How infants use vision for grasping objects     

McCarty ME  Clifton RK  Ashmead DH  Lee P  Goubet N 《Child development》2001,72(4):973-987

The role of vision was examined as infants prepared to grasp horizontally and vertically oriented rods. Hand orientation was measured prior to contact to determine if infants differentially oriented their hands relative to the object's orientation. Infants reached for rods under different lighting conditions. Three experiments are reported in which (1) sight of the hand was removed (N = 12), (2) sight of the object was removed near the end of the reach (N = 40, including 10 adults), and (3) sight of the object was removed prior to reach onset (N = 9). Infants differentially oriented their hand to a similar extent regardless of lighting condition and similar to control conditions in which they could see the rod and hand throughout the reach. In preparation for reaching, infants may use the current sight of the object's orientation, or the memory of it, to orient the hand for grasping; sight of the hand had no effect on hand orientation.  相似文献

A review of social interventions for students with learning disabilities   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

R McIntosh  S Vaughn  N Zaragoza 《Journal of learning disabilities》1991,24(8):451-458

Twenty-two studies are reviewed that report the effects of social skills training and intervention with 572 children identified as learning disabled between 5 and 19 years of age. These studies are reviewed to examine characteristics and components of intervention effectiveness. Age and sex of subjects, grade grouping, group size, intervention duration, intervention procedures, subject selection, and type of interventional model are examined to find patterns that reflect intervention success. Several intervention characteristics and components are associated with social intervention effectiveness: selecting subjects who had social skills difficulties or low peer acceptance, using cognitive-behavioral intervention procedures, providing individual or small group instruction, and applying long-term intervention and training. Discussion focuses on difficulties in comparing studies to determine intervention effectiveness through the examination of outcome measures, a call for revisions in future reporting of social interventions in the literature, and those intervention factors that relate to increases in peer acceptance.  相似文献

Real education in non-real time: The use of electronic message systems for instruction     

Clark N. Quinn  Hugh Mehan  James A. Levin  Steven D. Black 《Instructional Science》1983,11(4):313-327

Education in different communication media takes place with functional differences that have consequences for the course of instructional interaction. In this paper, we examine instructional interaction among people using a computer-based electronic message system, contrasting it with conventional face-to-face discussion in a college level class. Interaction via the non-real time message system contained multiple “threads of discourse,” a higher proportion of student turns to teacher turns, and other deviations from the “initiation-response-evaluation” sequences usually found in face-to-face classroom interactions. Based on the results of our contrast, we describe ways to organize instruction using electronic message systems to take advantage of new properties and to avoid shortcomings of these new instructional media.  相似文献

Educational services in the University of Bath     

K. Austwick  N. D. C. Harris 《Higher Education》1972,1(2):245-249

Educational technology units, audio-visual aids centres or television services have been established in many British Universities during the present quinquennium. These have met with varied responses from academics, and several organizational patterns have emerged. This article sets out to describe the organizational structure and the range of services offered by the Educational Services in the University of Bath. The Service grew out of the amalgamation of several discrete and independent provisions within the University—projection services, a City-University television service, a unit in the School of Education and so on.Across the board involvement is achieved via a Senate Committee responsible for overall direction, credibility is established by the appointment of an existing academic staff member as director, and an internal bulletin provides the core of a communications system with the academics. Staff seminars on curriculum analysis and development, methods of evaluation and so on, backed up by occasional visiting speakers, provide theoretical backup to the practical and hardware services. An important aspect of the work of the Service is co-operation and co-ordination with the new University Library which has been designed to provide both book and non-book information services. Professor Austwick is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Educational Technology, and Mr. Harris is the Director of Educational Services in the University.

Les services annexes de l'enseignement a l'Universite de Bath

Résumé Des services rassemblant les moyens techniques d'enseignement, ainsi que des centres audio-visuels ou télévisuels ont été créés dans de nombreuses universités anglaises ces dernières années. Ils ont suscité des réactions différentes de la part du milieu universitaire et, de ce fait, des formes d'organisation différentes sont apparues. L'article vise à décrire l'organisation et la gamme des services qui se rencontrent en cette matière à l'Université de Bath. Le Service des moyens pédagogiques est né de l'intégration de plusieurs services indépendants qui existaient au sein de l'Université: services de projection, de télévision, un groupe de l'Institut d'éducation etc.Les relations avec le Conseil sont assurées par un comité responsable de la marche générale des services; le sérieux de l'entreprise est garanti par la nomination comme directeur d'une personalité membre du corps universitaire; la publication d'un bulletin intérieur fournit un moyen de communication avec l'ensemble des universitaires. Des séminaires consacrés à l'analyse et à l'élaboration des filières d'études, aux méthodes d'évaluation des résultats et autres sujets semblables sont animés par des spécialistes invités et procurent une aide théorique aux services d'exécution technique. Un aspect important de l'activité du Service réside dans la coopération et la coordination avec la nouvelle bibliothèque de l'Université qui a été concue pour diffuser l'information, que celle-ci soit livrescue ou non. Le professeur Austwick est président du Comité pour la technologie de l'enseigement et M. Harris est directeur du Service des techniques d'enseignement à l'Université de Bath.
