An Elementary School Violence Prevention Program

Abstract

This article details the implementation and empirical evaluation of an elementary school violence program. The problem of school violence and the significance and focus of the study are discussed. The general research question in this study was to examine the potential for a computer-mediated anger management program to enhance or improve the conflict resolution skills of youth with aggressive behavior problems in an elementary school setting. This study employed an 8-week computer-mediated anger management program, called SMART Talk (Students Managing Anger Resolution Together), for teaching conflict resolutions skills. This program was derived from a meta-analysis (Scheckner et al., 2002) due to its large effect size, statistical significance, and computer-mediated execution in order to verify past results with a more specifically defined population of at-risk (i.e., aggressive) students. Overall, the results suggest that participants in the intervention group significantly reported more intentions to use nonviolent strategies in a future conflict than students in the control group. Further research is recommended in order to assess the replicability of this study to other populations. Recommendations include longer intervention duration, larger sample size, multiple school settings, and multi-systemic implementation (i.e., teacher and parent workshops) as well as longitudinal studies.     

中国共产党早期民族工作历程与经验启示

中国共产党的民族工作和民族政策,是建立在其早期民族工作的基础之上的。中国共产党的早期民族工作大致可分为两个阶段,即中国共产党民族工作的理论宣讲时期(1921-1934)和中国共产党民族工作的实践时期(1934-1949)。在这两个时期,中国共产党的民族工作都取得了重大成就,既为新中国民族工作的开展奠定了基础,又为之积累了深刻的启示。

The factory and the welfare state: redundancy,benefits and workers’ organization at Alfa Romeo Arese, 1963-1986

ABSTRACT

The article tracks the relationship between the Italian welfare state and the social relations of production at a Fordist factory, showing how social policy influenced the pattern of workers’ contention on the industrial shop floor. Welfare state analysis has concentrated on the institutional aspect of social policy but neglected the role that state benefits played in industrial organization and workplace relations. The article ‘nests’ the analysis of social policy in a micro-history of the factory, using the case study of Arese – a plant owned by the carmaker Alfa Romeo – Milan, Italy. Tracking the history of Arese, the article shows how the Italian system of short-time work subsidies, the Cassa Integrazione Guadagni (CIG), served to quell industrial unrest and target unions’ organizational resources. From the late 1960s, the CIG was used by managers to suspend workers during strikes and acted as a deterrent against their mobilization. As redundancies increased during the 1980s, workers were put on short-time for prolonged periods and prevented from entering the factory. This degraded their professional identity and eroded their political ties with the workplace, curtailing the basis of unions’ organizational strength within the factory.

论司法人性化与司法公正的冲突与协调

司法人性化是现代司法改革的题中应有之义,它的正确实施有利于人权保护和司法公正价值目标的实现,但是司法人性化的泛化必然对司法的公正性提出挑战。司法人性化与司法公正的对立是相对的,二者存在统一的基础。加强人性化的立法、坚守法律的底线、培养司法者的人格素质以及建立科学的评价体系是协调司法人性化与司法公正冲突的有效途径。

群体性事件的心理学研究

群体性事件参与者具有失衡、不信任、造势和法不责众的心理特征.党委、政府和有关部门要充分应用心理学原理,准确把握群体性事件参与者的心理特征,做到:1.引导参与者保持正常的心态,消除失衡心理;2.赢得参与者对党委政府的理解和支持,消除不信任心理;3.及时分化瓦解参与者,消除造势心理;4.保持震慑态势,消除法不责众心理.     

旅游审美意象论——试析西双版纳的风情旅游

在中国 ,民族风情的审美往往与悟道联系在一起。庄子认为“天地有大美而不言” ,审美者只有超越感性知性 ,并敞亮心灵的第三层面 ,才能领会美。旅游者在进行旅游活动时 ,面对民族风情产生的审美观照 ,往往是源于旅游目的地中所见所闻所感而产生的强烈情感体验。用西方哲人柏拉图的话说就是“灵魂遍体沸腾跳动”和一种“惊喜不能自制”
