Faculty Salaries and the Maximization of Prestige     

Tatiana Melguizo  Myra H. Strober 《Research in higher education》2007,48(6):633-668

Through the lens of the emerging economic theory of higher education, we look at the relationship between salary and prestige. Starting from the premise that academic institutions seek to maximize prestige, we hypothesize that monetary rewards are higher for faculty activities that confer prestige. We use data from the 1999 National Study of Postsecondary Faculty (NSOPF), and regression analysis to examine the determinants of salaries. The results are consistent with the theory that faculty members are financially rewarded for enhancing institutional prestige. There is some evidence that the rewards are higher in science and engineering. Spending more time on teaching has no effect on salary, even in comprehensive universities and liberal arts colleges. Findings suggest that other types of institutions are emulating research institutions in their pursuit of prestige. Looking at faculty salaries through this lens raises serious questions about the implications of the current reward system in higher education.

At risk: Children of female psychiatric inpatients     

Rhoda Oppenheimer 《Child abuse & neglect》1981,5(2):117-122

The need is examined for an adult psychiatric inpatient screening programme to identify, assess and treat emotional and physical trauma to the young children of female psychiatric patients. In a previous study [14] it was found that 28% of adult admissions to a large urban psychiatric hospital were parents of dependent children. Of admissions, 19.6% were mothers and 13% were mothers of preschool children. This paper considers the service implication of these previous findings. Two case examples are given of preschool children, known to psychiatric services, who died. In each case there was lack of assessment, prior to discharge, of mother-child relationship and lack of communication between Health and Social Services and the Primary Care Team. It is suggested that there should be routine training of psychiatrists, mental nurses, social workers and other disciplines in collaborative assessment and treatment of the adult psychiatric patient's role as mother. The lack of this training appears hazardous and detrimental to the needs of the patient. Examples are given of assessment and intervention methods applicable to an adult psychiatric ward setting.  相似文献   

The Constructivist Roots of Moral Education     

Rhoda Cummings  Steve Harlow 《The Educational forum》2013,77(4):300-307

The success of doctoral student mentoring is largely dependent upon faculty members, but structural and institutional obstacles compound deficiencies in the performance of all participants. University leaders must emphasize the value of mentorship in stimulating positive learning conditions and stress the importance of recognizing faculty members engaged in teaching beyond the classroom. Without organizational attention to a quality mentoring program and rewards for mentoring efforts, some faculty members perform as trainers, illusionists, tricksters, and escapists, potentially turning academia into a doctoral circus. If the quality of doctoral mentoring in today's academia is to improve, systemic change is crucial.  相似文献   

Socioaffective Issues and Concerns Among Gifted Filipino Children     

Rhoda Myra Garces-Bacsal 《Roeper Review》2013,35(4):239-251

There is a dearth of information regarding the socioemotional realities of gifted children from ethnically diverse backgrounds, which this research attempts to address. Multiple semistructured narrative interviews were conducted with 22 intellectually superior children aged 4–9 years and with their parents. Manifestations of perfectionism, hypersensitivities, and overexcitabilities were evident among the Filipino gifted children. The implications of such manifestations of heightened sensitivities for educators and diagnosticians were discussed. Cross-cultural contrasts were likewise discussed to demonstrate whether predominant socioaffective traits, characteristics, and issues in the West are likewise evident among gifted children from a culturally different background like the Philippines.  相似文献

FOCUS ON PRACTICE: Difficulties in initiating and sustaining peer friendships: perspectives on students diagnosed with AD/HD     

Myra Taylor  Stephen Houghton 《British Journal of Special Education》2008,35(4):209-219

In this article, Myra Taylor, research fellow, and Professor Stephen Houghton of the Centre for Child and Adolescent Related Disorders at the University of Western Australia, report theory generated from interviews with teachers, students and mothers residing in Perth, Western Australia, on how children with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) initiate and sustain peer relationships. An initial review of the three sample groups’ respective perspectives reveals that children with AD/HD exhibit three distinct socialisation patterns: a socially integrated pattern (that is, having three or more ongoing friendship pairings with peers); a marginal integrated pattern (that is, having two or less ongoing friendship pairings with peers); and a socially isolated pattern (that is, having no, or infrequent, friendship pairings with peers). Both teacher and maternal perspectives are similar in so far as both perceive children with attention deficit disorders to have marginal to non‐existent friendships. Students with AD/HD perceive themselves, however, as having strongly to marginally formed friendships with their peers. Myra Taylor and Stephen Houghton explore suggestions that differences between adult and child perspectives relate to diagnostic status, age and developmental maturity. They identify opportunities for further research arising out of their work and indicate that a wider evidence base will be needed before robust recommendations for practice can be made.  相似文献
