当代青年生存无意义感的理性反思

随着现代科技的迅猛发展和由传统文化建构的意义世界的解体,不少青年人在面对瞬息万变及复杂多样的现代生活时逐渐丧失了支撑其生命活动的价值资源和意义归宿,产生了身心分离的碎片感、疲惫感、宿命感和孤独无助感。对此,德育工作必须改变过去“纯工具化”理性,赋予当代青年更多的人文关怀,如生命情感关怀、终极信仰关怀、社会责任感关怀和苦难与死亡意义的关怀等,引导他们超越自身的有限性和现实的物质纷扰,追求生命的永恒价值。

Comparison of Anonymous Versus Confidential Survey Procedures: Effects on Health Indicators in Dutch Adolescents

Self-report questionnaires are frequently used in youth research, but doubt remains whether total anonymity affects the results. This study compared the responses of 704 mainly 16–17-year-old adolescents to self-report measures of various health indicators in 2 groups: anonymous and confidential collection. For most health indicators no significant differences were found. Perceived health, use of alcohol, and aggressive behavior (for boys) were reported significantly less frequently in the confidential group (small effect size). It appeared that pupils with high scores on social desirability do not respond differently at most health indicators in the 2 conditions. For most health characteristics, epidemiologically useful outcomes may be derived from confidential self-report measures, which are also valuable for detecting individual at-risk children. Similar studies in lower grades and other types of education should confirm the results.Youth Department, Municipal Health Service Rotterdam area.

Interpersonal Sensitivity, Romantic Stress, and the Prediction of Depression: A Study of Inner-City, Minority Adolescent Girls

The role of interpersonal sensitivity in the relation between romantic stress and depression was examined in 55 adolescent girls from an inner-city high school. Depression, interpersonal sensitivity, and chronic and episodic romantic stress were measured at two time points, 6 months apart. Interpersonal sensitivity was found to moderate the longitudinal relation between romantic stress (both chronic and episodic) and depression. In contrast, interpersonal sensitivity did not potentiate depressive responses to non-romantic interpersonal stress, suggesting particular importance of stress in the romantic domain for adolescent girls. Results indicate that girls' sensitivities to romantic relationship stress should be specifically addressed in depression prevention and intervention programs.Received her PhD from the University of Southern California.

Epistemic Reasoning and Adolescent Egocentrism: Relations to Internalizing and Externalizing Symptoms in Problem Youth

This investigation addressed the question of how two forms of social cognitive reasoning – epistemic reasoning and adolescent egocentrism – interface with externalizing and internalizing forms of psychopathology during adolescence. Adolescents’ epistemic reasoning (i.e., types of belief entitlement, or degree of doubt, held by an individual when confronted with contradictory sides of an issue), and imaginary audience and personal fable ideation, were assessed in a sample of 29 adolescent boys with behavioral problems and 30 of their peers without behavioral problems. To assess internalizing and externalizing symptomatology, teachers completed the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL-TRF). Results revealed that, compared to those without behavior problems, boys with behavioral problems were lower in epistemic reasoning. Further analyses revealed consistent relations between dimensions of social cognitive reasoning to specific forms of psychopathology. These findings suggest that social cognitive reasoning, particularly epistemic doubt, is important in understanding problem behaviors among typical and atypical adolescents.

多元文化背景下的青少年教育

文化的多元化使各种文化冲突相继出现,从层面上看,主要是中西文化冲突、精英文化与大众文化冲突、主流文化与非主流文化冲突。这些冲突,对我国社会生活各个层面特别是青少年教育产生了不同程度的影响。文化冲突使青少年学生的价值观整合过程,往往不可避免地遇到矛盾和冲突,以致于部分学生出现了价值混乱、无所适从的感觉。要迎接多元文化的挑战,教育就必须拆除有形、无形的围墙,加强与社会的联系；必须改变自命清高、孤芳自赏的心态,承担起应有的文化职责。具体说来,当前至少应该做好以下工作：1．树立多文化教育观。2．坚持客观分析、兼容并蓄。3．直面文化冲突,采取切实措施进行积极应对。     

近代视野下西部民族地区的城市发展——以甘宁青区域为考察对象

在现代性因素的“跃进”性扩散下,以洋务运动为先声,19世纪后期的甘宁青地区也开始了缓慢而曲折的早期现代化进程,城市亦随之出现转型并得到一定发展。但是,由于自然地理环境的先天不足,再加上长期战乱不断、对民族关系问题的认识偏差等后天的人为主观能动性的缺失,较之东、中部等地区而言,近代甘宁青地区的城市发展又表现出明显的滞后性:不仅城市发展缓慢,而且城市早期现代化水平也十分有限,这种滞后的城市发展又对区域的发展造成了严重的消极影响。     

多元文化背景下的云南道教——以南诏大理时期为中心

秦汉以来中华民族多元一体格局基本形成,道教逐渐传播进入西南少数民族地区。历史上唐朝与南诏的“苍山会盟”,其文书采用五斗米道“三官手书”的方式。南诏大理政权建立的神异事迹,反映出道教影响的历史事实。南诏大理时期的道教是多元文化背景下的必然产物,这与道教在中国社会的长期影响,与历史上各民族经济文化的密切联系有关。     

贵州黔东南州少数民族大学生心理健康调查与分析

本研究采用心理健康测查表(PHI)对黔东南地区凯里学院513名少数民族大学生进行测试,结果表明:黔东南地区少数民族大学生的心理健康水平从总体上有较大问题,心理问题的检出率较高,男生和女生均出现比较一致的情况;性别因素对少数民族大学生心理健康水平的影响不大,男女生没有显著差异。引起少数民族大学生心理问题的原因是复杂的、多方面的,既有个人的因素,也有社会、学校和家庭以及民族文化和环境等方面的因素,建议民族地区高校应重视和加强心理健康教育的指导。
