Initial epistemological beliefs transformation in one teacher education classroom: Case study of four preservice teachers

Education literature suggests that preservice teachers hold similar initial beliefs, viewing the teacher as the authority figure passing knowledge to the students. In consistency with constructivist practice, these beliefs should be challenged to enable the preservice teachers to develop alternative ideas, seeing the students capable of constructing knowledge with the help of the teacher. These beliefs are found difficult to change in the course environment. Drawing on surveys and teaching observations from four preservice teachers in an introduction methods course, the study showed that the four participants had different epistemological beliefs, some beliefs being more resistant to change than others.

Learn after reading: effects of news framing and responsibility attribution on Chinese college students’ perceived efficacy in identifying others and themselves with depression

Depression is now one of the most severe public health threats in China and among Chinese college students. To examine the effects of depression news coverage on Chinese college students’ mental health literacy, focusing on their perceived efficacy in recognizing depression symptoms, a 2 (news framing: episodic vs. thematic)?×?2 (responsibility attribution: individual vs. societal)?×?2 (gender: female vs. male) between-subjects experiment was conducted among 187 students at a large research university in China. The key findings, after controlling for depression issue involvement, include: (1) the main effects of attribution on perceived efficacy in identifying others (friends and family members) with depression; (2) the association between gender and perceived efficacy in identifying family members with depression; and (3) the three-way interactions on how framing, attribution, and gender jointly affect not only perceived efficacy in identifying others but also themselves with depression. These findings provide insights on how depression news coverage can help enhance mental health literacy and build stronger depression symptom resilience among Chinese college students. Implications for health journalists and public health communication professionals in China are discussed.     

Islamophobia in China: news coverage,stereotypes, and Chinese Muslims’ perceptions of themselves and Islam

An analysis spanning 10 years of news reports about Muslims and Islam in Chinese state news media (N?=?15,427) demonstrates that Chinese news reports project an overall negative view of Muslims. An implicit association test performed in the non-Muslim Chinese population (N?=?1479) reveals negative stereotypes of Muslims. In addition, a survey of Chinese Muslims (N?=?384) shows that they perceive negative coverage of Muslims and Islam in Chinese media, and that real-life discrimination might be a consequence of such negative stereotyping. This study reveals that (1) there is an overall negative framing of news coverage of Muslims and Islam; (2) non-Muslim Chinese hold a negative stereotype of Muslims and Islam; (3) Chinese Muslims are cognizant of a negative media portrayal of Islam and of themselves; and (4) some Muslim Chinese experience discrimination in their daily lives. The present study contributes to the literature on global Islamophobia, a phenomenon that is understudied in China.     

大学生媒体形象建构的嬗变——以框架理论的观点

近十年来,随着大众传媒关于大学生群体的负面新闻报道不断增加,大学生的媒体形象正在发生嬗变。笔者对《中国青年报》、《齐鲁晚报》1997年与2007年有关的大学生新闻报道加以统计分析,试图找出这十年内媒体建构的大学生形象的变化,希望提醒媒体及公众,对大学生群体产生特定形象认知时能更为谨慎。     

理性与我国科学图书馆学的构建

理性是科学的内核,科学是理性之外现。目前,我国图书馆学尚处于形而上学阶段,与具有独立学科意义的科学尚存在一定距离,其根本原因在于我国图书馆学研究中缺乏理性精神。科学图书馆学的抽象性、理论构建及其研究方法,都需要理性来把握。理性分为本体理性、认知理性、价值理性、方法理性四个层次。科学图书馆学也应从这四个方面去构建。     

新冠肺炎疫情语境中多元媒介的微博话语表达

本文使用隐性主题分析、社会网络分析和多元对应分析等方法,通过对新冠肺炎疫情中活跃传统媒体账号微博的内容分析,考察其中与新冠肺炎相关的主题、相关报道话语随时间的变化,不同类型的媒介主体是否存在表达差异。结果显示,这些微博在内容上既呈现了宏观叙事,也包括了微观话语,随着时间的变化有着明显的阶段性差异,而且媒体之间有着鲜明的内容和风格差异性。本研究为深入研究传统媒体和社交媒体之间的复杂关系提供了参考。     

Exploring a transformative orientation to sustainability in universities: a question of loose and tight framings

This review essay examines three new books on higher education and sustainability. It explores a number of the issues raised in the books, in particular, the meaning of a transformative orientation towards sustainability. The idea of loose and tight conceptual framings of sustainability is employed. A tight framing is where an institution embodies a vision, values and values-informed practices that have been shifted to fit a particular conceptualisation of sustainability which gives meaning, not just to what that institution does, but also to what it is trying to become. A loose framing is where an institution takes sustainability seriously in what it does, without having in place values, dispositions and orientations, and an appropriate conceptually grounded vision. It is argued (i) that the essential distinction here is between that of doing sustainability, and a shift to being sustainable as a whole institution; (ii) that any developmental journey to a tight framing would need to be a deliberate one; (iii) that changes to curriculum, management, leadership and governance would need to be in place before this can start; and (iv) that an important step on the journey will involve institution-wide deliberations on the conceptual framing(s) to adopt.     

运动风险决策情境中的框架效应研究

参考"亚洲疾病"问题,编制运动决策情境中框架效应实验材料,采用多因素完全随机实验设计,对不同框架呈现方式下运动员的决策行为及其相关因素进行研究,为运动决策实践提供理论指导。结果表明:①反应认知方式、自尊水平、运动等级、运动项目变量不影响运动风险决策,但是有部分变量受框架效应的影响。在局内框架中,慢而准确型被试受到了框架效应影响;局外框架中,慢而不准确型被试受到了框架效应的影响;局外框架中,快而不准确型被试受到了框架效应的影响。在正性框架中,低水平被试受到了框架效应影响。在负性框架下,个人项目被试受到了框架效应的影响。②结果框架和情境框架部分影响了运动员的运动风险决策,并对运动风险决策有预测作用。
