Academic socialization,parental educational expectations,and academic self‐efficacy among Latino adolescents

This study examined the direct association between parental educational expectations and adolescents’ academic self‐efficacy, as well as the moderating influence of parental academic socialization messages. Participants were 148 Latino parent–adolescent dyads with the majority of Mexican origin (80.4%). Most of the parent participants were mothers (85.8%). Adolescents were 13 (46%) or 14 (54%) years of age, and 53% identified as female. Adolescents reported their academic self‐efficacy and perceptions of their parents’ educational expectations; parents reported on their academic socialization messages of shame/pressure and effort regarding academics. The results suggest that, after accounting for parents’ level of education and immigrant status, parental educational expectations were positively associated with adolescent academic self‐efficacy. This association was stronger among adolescents whose parents reported transmitting fewer messages of shame/pressure and academic effort. These results point to the importance of nuances in the content and type of academic socialization messages within Latino families.     

论译者对原语文本"空白点"的填充和读者"期待视野"的关系

译者对原文的“空白点”的处理只能表现在本文的理解和接受层面,以及审美体验层面,并不表现在译文语言表达和最终实现层面。译者应将对原文本“空白点”留给译文文本的读者去解读,从而实现他们的“期待视野”。     

对现行高校生师比要求一致性的质疑

用合理的生师比来评价高校办学水平是否合格,既能保证一定的教学质量,又能提高教育资源的利用率及高校的办学效益。但用过于统一的生师比来要求所有的高校是不科学、不合理的,将会带来许多消极的影响。改变目前用过于统一的生师比评价所有高校的现状,用符合各校实际的生师比来评价各高校,对于高校的充分发展和我国高教事业的顺利进行都有积极作用。     

中小学生家长期望水平的个体化指向

家长期望理论研究,是当前心理学、教育学研究领域的新课题。调研发现中小学生家长对子女的学习、学历期望值偏高。家长期望水平个体化指向要合理定位:要以子女身心发展现有水平的个体特质为基准,与子女的自我价值发展趋向一致,以适度超过子女现有发展水平为目标,使家长期望水平与子女的学业成就动机都能向高一级的目标、方向跨越。     

Family socioeconomic status,parental expectations,and adolescents’ academic achievements: a case of China

This study examines direct and indirect effects of family socioeconomic status (SES) and parental expectations on adolescents’ mathematics and problem-solving achievement in mainland China. SES here is composed of family wealth, home educational resources, and parental education. Over 5,000 ninth-grade students in 5 geographical districts of China participated in the study and were assessed by using the items adapted from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). Results from structural equation modelling indicated that 2 components of SES – home educational resources and parental education – positively predicted parental expectations; however, the 3rd component – family wealth – negatively predicted parental expectations. Family wealth, parental education, and parental expectations significantly predicted mathematics achievement, and home educational resources, parental education, and parental expectations significantly predicted problem-solving achievement. The 3 components of SES also had significant indirect effects on both mathematics and problem-solving achievement through parental expectations, and the effect of family wealth was a suppression effect. These results were further discussed from Chinese cultural contexts.     

从期待视野看严复翻译的《天演论》

姚斯的＂期待视野＂理论对翻译的启示是,为了使读者接受自己的译本,译者在翻译中必须关照读者的期待视野。基于对晚清时势下读者特定期待视野的关照,严复在将Evolution and Ethics翻译成《天演论》时,通过改写、删削、省略、增加等方式,强化了译本对当时中国读者忧患意识和爱国情怀的呼唤。因此,严复的译本激发了当时读者的积极响应,成为和读者期待视野近乎完美融合的典范之作。

The personal tutor–student relationship: student expectations and experiences of personal tutoring in higher education

The personal tutor plays a key role in the student experience at university, and personal tutoring embodies the student relationship with the university, suggesting that it has the potential to provide insights beyond that specific relationship to the institution and higher education context. A focus session with first year undergraduate students explored expectations and experiences of personal tutoring from the student perspective. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to explore students’ lived experiences, and identified superordinate themes of expectations, experiences and relationships, with cluster themes including independence and authenticity. Developing a positive and genuine relationship with the personal tutor was found to ‘buffer’ against some of the first year challenges and contribute towards a sense of belonging. Importantly, this study provides evidence that experiencing poor personal tutoring is worse than not having a personal tutor at all, as this can lead to students experiencing strong negative emotions and re-evaluating their decision to go to university. Implications of these findings in the current higher education context of fee-paying students and competing institutional demands are discussed.
