ABSTRACT

Building on a long-term university/community research partnership, this article examines how different ways of conceptualizing, interpreting, and producing murals impacted how an urban community saw itself. Using a participatory action research design, university researchers worked alongside community researchers to ethnographically document the transformation. Findings indicate that the mural project constructed pathways for building relationships and community in ways that made neighborhood transformation possible. The mural project embodied this transformative goal by providing a space where people gathered with shared attention to talk and to envision how their lives and their community could be different.  相似文献   

Daily emotional states as reported by children and adolescents   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

R Larson  C Lampman-Petraitis 《Child development》1989,60(5):1250-1260

Hour-to-hour emotional states reported by children, ages 9-15, were examined in order to evaluate the hypothesis that the onset of adolescence is associated with increased emotional variability. These youths carried electronic pagers for 1 week and filled out reports on their emotional states in response to signals received at random times. To evaluate possible age-related response sets, a subset of children was asked to use the same scales to rate the emotions shown in drawings of 6 faces. The expected relation between daily emotional variability and age was not found among the boys and was small among the girls. There was, however, a linear relation between age and average mood states, with the older participants reporting more dysphoric average states, especially more mildly negative states. An absence of age difference in the ratings of the faces indicated that this relation could not be attributed to age differences in response set. Thus, these findings provide little support for the hypothesis that the onset of adolescence is associated with increased emotionality but indicate significant alterations in everyday experience associated with this age period.  相似文献

Mental health training and the hospice community: a national survey     

Garfield CA  Larson DG  Schuldberg D 《Death education》1982,6(3):189-204

This article summarizes a national survey of the hospice community. Respondents provided detailed information in the following areas: (a) What formal mental health training is provided for staff members? (b) Who conducts this training? (c) What areas are covered and where would more training be useful? (d) How is the training conducted--what formats and teaching materials are used? and (e) How much training do staff members receive? The results of the survey indicate that the hospice community is making a concerted effort to meet the mental health training needs of its paid staff members and volunteers. However, more than half of the hospices surveyed expressed a need for further training in 26 of the 33 issues and skills covered in the questionnaire, and many reported a need for a more systematic and comprehensive mental health curriculum. The findings point to several areas of particularly great need and provide a basis for the development of future mental health training in the hospice community.  相似文献   

The Effects of Morning Naps, Car Trips, and Maternal Separation on Adrenocortical Activity in Human Infants   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Mary C. Larson  Megan R. Gunnar  Louise Hertsgaard 《Child development》1991,62(2):362-372

3 studies of adrenocortical activity in healthy 9-month-old infants were conducted to examine unanticipated results obtained in previous research. In the first study, morning naps were examined and found to be associated with significant decreases in salivary cortisol. These decreases were followed by a significant return to prenap cortisol concentrations. In the second study, riding for 40 min in the car was also shown to significantly lower salivary cortisol concentrations. This effect was obtained both for infants who did and who did not sleep during the car trip. In the third study, the effect of 30 min of maternal separation in the laboratory on salivary cortisol was compared to the effect of 30 min of play with mother present. Separation resulted in significantly higher salivary cortisol concentrations as compared to play with mother present. In general, correlations between cortisol and behavior were found to be nonsignificant under conditions that did not produce stress elevations in cortisol, while less positive, more distressed behaviour was significantly correlated with cortisol under separation or stress conditions.  相似文献   

Rationales and practices used by caring physical education teachers     

Anne Larson  Stephen J. Silverman 《Sport, Education and Society》2013,18(2):175-193

This paper examines the reasons that physical education teachers exhibited caring behaviors during teaching. Four physical education teachers, identified as caring physical education teachers, were formally and informally interviewed and observed teaching. Data were analyzed using content analysis and inductive coding, and three themes emerged. The teachers (a) share similar beliefs about why it is important to be caring and had similar influences on their teaching conduct, (b) similarly believe that physical activity/physical education makes a difference in the lives of youth, and (c) share a common interest in broadening relationships with students. The results suggest that there are common reasons these caring teachers care for their students—in particular, personal biography seems to be a strong influence—and that more studies are needed to examine further these results and the relationship between the concept of caring and teaching.  相似文献   

法律经济学的分析与搭售合理性的认知   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

李剑 《西南师范大学学报(人文社会科学版)》2006,32(2):164-170

法律经济分析对于法律内在运行逻辑的认识非常重要。在芝加哥学派理论之前，搭售通常被认为是延伸垄断力量，获取双倍垄断利润的方式，美国在搭售上的相关判决也都表明了对这种主要依据经验规则进行判断的认识方式的支持。而芝加哥学派通过法律经济分析方法所构建的单一利益模型表明，在现实生活中广泛存在的搭售具有相当的合理性，搭售并不是垄断力量有效率的运用方式，而仅仅是价格歧视的实现工具。随着芝加哥学派理论的发展，搭售在质量保证、产品风险分担等等方面的合理性都被进一步发掘出来。尽管芝加哥学派的理论也受到了其他经济学家的批判，并被证明是不完善的，但其通过经济学模型的构建来解释搭售的存在合理性则无疑增强了对现实问题的解释力。  相似文献   

Adopting an active learning approach to teaching in a research-intensive higher education context transformed staff teaching attitudes and behaviours     

Paul J. White  Ian Larson  Kim Styles  Elizabeth Yuriev  Darrell R. Evans  P.K. Rangachari 《高等教育研究与发展》2016,35(3):619-633

The conventional lecture has significant limitations in the higher education context, often leading to a passive learning experience for students. This paper reports a process of transforming teaching and learning with active learning strategies in a research-intensive educational context across a faculty of 45 academic staff and more than 1000 students. A phased approach was used, involving nine staff in a pilot phase during which a common vision and principles were developed. In short, our approach was to mandate a move away from didactic lectures to classes that involved students interacting with content, with each other and with instructors in order to attain domain-specific learning outcomes and generic skills. After refinement, an implementation phase commenced within all first-year subjects, involving 12 staff including three from the pilot group. The staff use of active learning methods in classes increased by sixfold and sevenfold in the pilot and implementation phases, respectively. An analysis of implementation phase exam questions indicated that staff increased their use of questions addressing higher order cognitive skills by 51%. Results of a staff survey indicated that this change in practice was caused by the involvement of staff in the active learning approach. Fifty-six percent of staff respondents indicated that they had maintained constructive alignment as they introduced active learning. After the pilot, only three out of nine staff agreed that they understood what makes for an effective active learning exercise. This rose to seven out of nine staff at the completion of the implementation phase. The development of a common approach with explicit vision and principles and the evaluation and refinement of active learning were effective elements of our transformational change management strategy. Future efforts will focus on ensuring that all staff have the time, skills and pedagogical understanding required to embed constructively aligned active learning within the approach.  相似文献
