The effect of facilitative communication training on teacher response quality

Training designed to enhance facilitative communication between teachers and students is becoming an increasingly important element of teacher training programs. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effect of facilitative communication training on the quality of teacher response to various student problems and to the accompanying emotional states of anger, joy, or depression. The subjects consisted of 64 undergraduate teacher education majors who responded in writing to 15 audiotaped stimulus vignettes. A 5×3×2 repeated measures analysis of variance was used to measure the effects of problem situation, emotional state, and training on empathic understanding. The results indicated significant differences between trained and untrained groups, as well as differences in quality of response due to emotion, with joy eliciting greater empathy than depression or anger. Significant interactions among the variables also were obtained. Implications are discussed in terms of human relations training for teachers.     

Missed signals: The effect of ACT college-readiness measures on post-secondary decisions

In the face of shrinking government budgets and a growing need to train a high-skilled labor force, policymakers have become increasingly interested in cost-effective measures that induce more students to apply to and enroll in college. In this paper, we use a regression discontinuity design to identify the causal effect of students receiving information about their own college-readiness after taking the ACT on their subsequent college enrollment decisions. Using data from Colorado, where all high school students are required to take the ACT, we find that students who receive information that they are college-ready are no more likely to attend college than those that do not receive this information. We discuss possible reasons for these findings.     

The effect of omitting a limited number of subtests on the full scale reliability of the WISC-R

Changes in the full scale reliability of the WISC-R were computed at three age levels when each subtest was omitted by itself. Reliability was then determined when combinations of the two to five subtests which independently lowered the full scale reliability the most were omitted. The same procedure was followed with those subtests which independently had the smallest effect in lowering full scale reliability. The deletion of any one subtest had a negligible effect on reliability. Only when the combination of the five subtests having the greatest independent effect on full scale reliability was omitted did the reliability drop below.90. Cautions were rioted concerning the exclusion of sub-tests even when reliability remains acceptably high.     

The limited benefits of rereading educational texts

Though rereading is a study method commonly used by students, theoretical disagreement exists regarding whether rereading a text significantly enhances the representation and retention of the text’s contents. In four experiments, we evaluated the effectiveness of rereading relative to a single reading in a context paralleling that faced by students in the classroom. Participants read educational texts (textbook chapters or a Scientific American article) under intentional learning instructions. Learning and memory were tested with educationally relevant summative assessments (multiple choice, short-answer questions, and text summaries). With only several exceptions, rereading did not significantly increase performance on the assessments. We also found that reading comprehension ability did not alter this pattern. It appears that when using ecologically valid materials such as a textbook chapter, immediate rereading may have little or no benefit for improving performance on educationally relevant summative assessments.     

有限公司股权善意取得

法律与实务,为上层建筑与经济基础之关系,法律促进司法实务高效便捷,经济发展敦促立法者改进法律细则。《公司法》股权转让引入善意取得制度引发诸多不公,因而"参照"物权法第106条适用时更应合理考虑个案特殊性。

论有限责任公司股权的非协议转让

有限责任公司股权非协议转让与股权协议转让不同,是非基于股东之间的合意或公司股东与第三人间的合意而进行的股权转让,一般是由于法律的直接规定产生,主要包括因婚姻关系的变动引起的股权转让,因遗产继承引起的股权转让,人民法院依照强制执行程序发生的股权转让和异议股东股权回购。股权的非协议转让是我国《公司法》中的薄弱环节,关于这方面的设定,《公司法》少有涉及。因此,实践中关于此类问题的处理也难免出现些问题。随着市场经济的发展,市场经济主体愈加活跃,新鲜的问题也层出不穷。我们应当树立问题意识,认真研究关于股权非协议转让的有关内容,对其进行完善,并在《公司法》中进行必要的规定和限制。     

大伙房水库分期汛限水位的确定

在汛期模糊分期的基础上,依据汛期分期模糊隶属度,确定大伙房水库汛期各天的汛限水位,并将之与实际防洪限制水位对比分析。结果表明,基于模糊集合理论确定的汛限水位在不增加防洪风险的前提下能提高水资源利用率,增强汛限水位动态控制的可操作性。

我国行政诉讼有限调解制度构建研究

作为调解制度基本类型之一的诉讼调解被广泛适用于我国民事诉讼、刑事自诉及附带民事诉讼、行政赔偿诉讼中。我国成文法原则上否定了行政诉讼适用诉讼调解的可行性和合法性,但在司法实践中,以协调为手段,以和解为目的的行政诉讼"和解"或"协调和解"开始出现并得以广泛应用。将无法律规制的协调和解机制转化为法律制度框架下的行政诉讼调解,才真正符合现代民主法治的要求。
