A Therapeutic Conceptualization of Adult Children of Alcoholics

This study revealed that problem drinking and an elevated need to control hinder college student ACoAs more than their non-ACoA peers. A multivariate analysis, using the Michigan Alcohol Screening Test (MAST) and Ego Grasping Orientation (EGO) as measures of the dependent variables of problem drinking and control, was used with a college freshman sample. Based on the results, routine problem drinking assessment of ACoAs by student services personnel was suggested. The manifestation of an elevated need to control was thought to range from the popular ACoA styles to the personality disorders. A method for determining an ACoA's place in this range, as well as the implications for psychotherapy, was outlined.

Coping with Career Indecision: Differences between Four Career Choice Types

This study examined the applicability of Gianakos’ [1999. Journal of Vocational Behavior, 54, 244–258] typology of career choice—stable, conventional, multiple-trial and unstable—to emotional coping with career indecision. Three hundred-twenty (Men = 203, Women = 117) Korean undergraduates were classified into Gianakos’ four career choice types. The Coping with Career Indecision (CCI) scale was administered to measure the emotional coping ability. Results indicated that the stable and the unstable types, respectively, received the lowest and the highest scores on the CCI. Results also demonstrated that overall differences between the four types of career choice in CCI were significant, however, the differences between the conventional and the multiple-trial were not reliable. These findings suggest that consideration of emotional as well as cognitive variables needs to be considered in constructing an ideal typology of career choice.

Also discussed are recommendations for future research, practice, and clinical training.     

国外大学生生涯未决研究进展及其启示

生涯未决是职业心理学研究的一个重要课题,其含义是指个体未能对自己希望从事的专业或者职业作出选择.自20世纪90年代开始,国外生涯未决研究领域呈现出变迁与转型的趋向,研究者认识到生涯未决并不是一个二元对立的概念,而是一个混杂的多维度概念结构,应将生涯决策状态与一些人格变量、问题解决变量结合起来研究,并采取聚类分析的方法对大学生的生涯未决进行不同亚类型的划分.纵观国外近20年生涯未决领域的研究历程和最新进展,对我国大学生职业生涯规划的实践具有积极启示意义:(1)注重编制实效性与本土化的生涯测评工具;(2)以细致的实证研究来鉴别不同的生涯表决学生;(3)对不同类型的生涯未决学生采取不同的咨询干预.     

The Relation of Career Indecision and Parental Attachment among Iranian Undergraduate Students

Career indecision particularly among college and undergraduate students is a concern of counselors and psychologists. This concern has led to numerous research studies related to career indecision and factors that influence it, such as family relationships. In this regard, several studies have reported a significant relationship between career indecision and parental attachment. However, little research has been undertaken on the influence of this factor in regard to career indecision for Iranian students. For this purpose, 158 Iranian freshmen and sophomores who had completed the ‘Career Decision Scale’ (Osipow et al., Journal of Vocational Behavior 9:233–243, 1976) and had been identified as career-undecided, completed the ‘Inventory of Parents and Peer Attachment-Revised’ (Armsden & Greenberg, Journal of Youth and Adolescence 16:427–453, 1987). The results revealed that a significant negative relationship was found between career indecision and attachment to mother, whilst the relationship between career indecision and attachment to father was not significant. However, regression analysis showed parental attachment did not significantly predict career indecision of students. Implications and recommendations for further research are discussed.

Testing Hypothesized Differences Between Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOAs) and Non‐ACOAs in a College Student Sample

The authors compared college adult children of alcoholics (ACOAs) and non‐ACOAs using the Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory‐3 (F. G. Miller, 1999). The results failed to support the hypothesis that ACOAs have higher rates of substance dependence, defensiveness, and codependency than do non‐ACOAs. Practical implications are offered for college counselors.

Internal and External Barriers, Cognitive Style, and the Career Development Variables of Focus and Indecision

One hundred and thirty final year high school students were administered scales tapping optimism/pessimism, self-esteem, external career barriers, career decision-making self-efficacy, career focus and career indecision. It was hypothesised, first, that cognitive style (optimism/pessimism) would predict both internal (self-esteem) and external career-related barriers, second, that internal barriers would interact with external barriers and impact on career decision-making self-efficacy, and third, the previously mentioned variables would subsequently predict career focus and career indecision. Results demonstrated that cognitive style was influential in determining the perception of internal barriers (for females and males) and external barriers (females only). Internal and external barriers, along with optimistic/pessimistic cognitive style, were found to predict career decision-making self-efficacy (in males, but not in females). There was no evidence that internal and external barriers interacted to predict career decision-making self-efficacy. Last, it was found that career decision-making self-efficacy, internal and external barriers, and optimistic/pessimistic cognitive style were able to predict career focus (males and females) and career indecision (males only). Results are discussed in the context of Carver and Scheier's (1981) control theory.

在人们关注大学生就业及职业生涯发展的今天,成人高校学生作为高等教育的特殊群体,他们的就业及职业发展问题尚未引起足够的重视。本文从成人高校学生的特殊性出发,尝试分析了成人高校职业指导的特点、实施的原则及其意义所在。     

普通高校成人教育的职业导向

“职业导向”是新时期经济社会发展对普通高校成人教育的现实要求.非职业导向的成人教育将扩大社会不公平,并且导致教育质量监管不力.“职业导向”的普通高校成人教育现实需求旺盛,政府支持有力,并具有一定的基础,因此具有现实可行性.要办好“职业导向”的普通高校成人教育,必须明确培养目标、准确设置专业、科学确定课程与教学内容、优化培养模式、狠抓师资队伍建设、加强教育过程管理.     

儿童教育成人化批判

儿童总要成为成人,成为社会的一员,成为文化的继承者和建设者。因而儿童教育是不可能回避社会对儿童的种种要求的。只有按照儿童的本性实施相应的体现社会需要的教育,才能真正实现社会对儿童发展的要求,也才能真正实现教育对社会进步的推动。强调教育应当以儿童为中心,真正体现了一个美好社会的人道追求。     

Adult Agendas in Publishing South African Folktales for Children

Translations of indigenous folktales form a large proportion of South African children's books. The reasons why they were published can be compared with the situation in Canada and Australia, where far fewer folktales were published until the 1970s. At first those who published them were influenced by Social Darwinism, and later they played a role in promoting the ideology of apartheid, but they were mainly the product of white paternalism. In South Africa and Australia they rivalled and outlasted the importation of whimsical European fairy tale elements. Today they are valued for sharing with all South African children indigenous culture, which has vanished or is disappearing in urban society.
