大学新生人格健康研究

目的：了解大学新生人格健康的总体状况并进行针对性的教育。方法：运用UPI对2009级新生3965人进行心理普查并对结果进行性别、生源比较分析。结果：一类学生16.69%,二类学生26.48%;女生心理问题多于男生,对口生心理问题显著多于统招生;学生普遍存在的心理问题包括学习适应问题、环境适应不良、情绪波动大、人际敏感、自信不足、有强迫意向。结论：应加强大学生心理健康教育。     

Informal faculty-student contact and commuter college freshmen

Based on prior research conducted at residential colleges and universities, nonclassroom informal faculty-student contact appears to be an element of student socialization. This study extends this line of research to a commuter student population. The extent to which informal contact socializes students by influencing their educational aspiration level in a commuter setting is investigated using a longitudinal data collection with the student as unit of analysis. Ordinary least squares and two-stage least squares techniques are used to analyze the data. Significant interactions between informal faculty-student contact and race were found. White and nonwhite students were sbusequently analyzed separately. The ordinary least squares (OLS) multiple regression results suggest that informal contact makes a slight but significant contribution to the explanation of freshmen aspirations for whites, but not for nonwhites. The two-stage least squares (2SLS) analysis suggests that the assumption that contact influences aspiration may not be valid and, indeed, that aspiration level may cause students to seek to initiate informal contact with faculty.     

大学新生心理健康状况调查研究

采用大学生心理健康测查量表(简称UPI)调查了1897名大学新生的心理健康状况,并分析其中是否存在不同性别、生源地等方面的差异。研究结果显示,一类学生存在比例为12.86%,女生、独生子女、家庭氛围为争吵或冷淡者、家庭收入极端者、来自离异家庭者中一类学生存在比例较高。根据结果,采取各种方式开展针对性的、更有实效的大学生心理健康教育工作十分必要。     

关于完善高职院校新生入学教育工作的思考

当前高职院校的新生已经步入95后,传统的入学教育模式已经不能适应这一代学生的需求。笔者在T职业技术学院(简称"T学院")做了一个问卷调查,试图了解该校学生对当前新生入学教育工作的评价,找出当前工作中存在的问题,结合这一学生群体特有的思想、行为等特征,思考如何开展行之有效的入学教育。

对高职院校五年一贯制新生教育管理的思考

五年一贯制是近年来高职院校顺应社会发展要求,创新办学形式的一种新尝试。该层次学生起点为初中毕业,与通过高考录取的高职院校学生在年龄、心理成熟度、知识结构等方面都有一定差别,在教育、教学管理中存在许多亟待解决的突出问题。重塑学生自信、发掘学生兴趣,是做好五年一贯制学生教育管理工作的重要任务。     

The impact of major on college persistence among freshmen

Using national-level data and a two-step procedure combining least squares regression and logit analysis, this paper examines the impact of majors on college persistence among freshmen. Holding other variables constant, women with business majors and undecided majors are less likely to persist than other women. Women with health majors are most likely to persist. Men with education majors and undecided majors are less likely to persist than other men. Men with business majors are slightly more likely to persist than other men. Differences in persistence rates are explained by differences in the relative magnitudes of goal-commitment, subject-interest, social-forces, and self-image effects. Some policy recommendations are provided.     

Systems thinking: An experimental course for college freshmen

An experimental interdisciplinary freshman course called The Systems Approach to the Universe was taught at North Carolina State University in the Spring of 1986. The goals of the course were to introduce principles of general systems theory; to provide examples through lectures and readings of applications of these principles in a wide variety of fields and disciplines; and to introduce and provide practice in critical questioning and evaluation. This paper outlines what was done, how it worked, and how the instructors and the students assessed the experience afterwards.He received his B.Ch.E. from the City College of New York, and his Ph.D. in chemical engineering from Princeton University. Barbara A. Soloman is Coordinator of Advising for the Academic Skills Program and Lecturer in the University Studies Program at North Carolina State University. She received her B.S. in mathematics from the City College of New York and her M.S. in mathematics from North Carolina State University.

Life adjustments of college freshmen with and without learning disabilities

This paper reports the results of a study comparing college freshmen with learning disabilities (LD) and freshmen with no learning disabilities (NLD). Four data collections over one academic year were completed on a total of 72 students (LDn=39; NLDn=33). Results of the study indicated differences between groups in their initial choice of living accommodations and in the changes made over the year: the overall trend was for students with LD to become more dependent on their families, while students with NLD were becoming less dependent on their families. With regard to academics, students with LD reported spending significantly less time in study and course preparation, as well as greater pessimism about success in coursework. Despite their pessimism, the actual GPA attainment of students with LD was similar to that of NLD peers. Whereas both groups initially predicted it would be easy to adjust to the academic and social nature of college, students with learning disabilities ultimately reported being dissatisfied with the social climate on campus. No differences were found between LD and NLD students regarding their motivation for attending college, or their plans for final degree attainment.     

An investigation of reading and language abilities of college freshmen

The purpose of this study was to compare a range of reading–related abilities in two groups of college freshmen with higher and lower reading comprehension abilities. Reading comprehension ability groups were formed using American College Test reading scores. The groups were compared on measures of oral language vocabulary and syntax, phonemic awareness and print decoding skills. Results indicated that abilities that appear to relate to reading comprehension include recognition of the order of phonemes in spoken syllables, recognition of words that are good semantic and syntactic fits for sentence frames, recall of meanings for spoken words and conversion of printed to spoken words.
