Job strain in public transport drivers: Data to assess the relationship between demand-control model indicators, traffic accidents and sanctions
2018
This Data in Brief (DiB) article examines the association between the Job Demand-Control (JDC) model of stress and traffic safety outcomes (accidents and sanctions) in public transport drivers (n = 780). The data was collected using a structured self-administrable questionnaire composed of measurements of work stress (Job Content Questionnaire), and demographics (professional driving experience, hours and days working/driving per week). The data contains 4 parts: descriptive statistics, bivariate correlations between the study variables, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Post-Hoc comparisons between drivers classified different quadrants of the JDC model. For further information, it is conve…
Vamos a Traducir los MRV(Let’s Translate the VRM): Linguistic and Cultural Inferences Drawn from Translating a Verbal Coding System from English into…
1997
Translating a verbal coding system from one language to another can yield unexpected insights into the process of communication in different cultures. This paper describes the problems and understandings we encountered as we translated a verbal response modes (VRM) taxonomy from English into Spanish. Standard translations of text (e.g., psychotherapeutic dialogue) systematically change the form of certain expressions, so supposedly equivalent expressions had different VRM codings in the two languages. Prominent examples of English forms whose translation had different codes in Spanish included tags, question forms, and "let's" expressions. Insofar as participants use such forms to convey nu…
The Impact of Acculturation on Attitudinal Familism in a Community of Puerto Rican Americans
1998
The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between acculturation and familism in a samnple of 182 Hispanics of Puerto Rican descent. Exploratory factor analysis was used to establish the multidimensionality of each construct. Consistent with earlier studies, three dimensions of acculturation and familism were identified. Each dimension offamilism was then regressed on a set of explanatory variables that included three dimensions of acculturation. For two dimensions offamilism (familial obligations and support from relatives), acculturation was positively related to familism; for the other dimension (family as referents), the relationship was nonsignificant. In explaining varian…
Educar jugando y dialogando. Derechos de la infancia, intencionalidad, familia y lenguaje
2019
[EN] The article reviews the rights that contribute to the achievement of a happy life from childhood and seizes on the key elements that seek dignity in order to develop happiness. First, the role of the family in setting up personal identity and security, and in establishing personal relationships. Second, the integral personal training and the education in the development of the critical sense and freedom for responsible exercise, as well as the ability to understand, express and communicate to improve or overcome problematic situations. Finally, gambling, as a basic tool of enjoyment in childhood, and, at the same time, learning in the two previous domains, sometimes unique complement o…
European Lifelong Guidance Policy Network representatives’ conceptions of the role of information and communication technologies related to national …
2015
This article reports findings from a phenomenographic investigation into European Lifelong Guidance Policy Network representatives’ conceptions of the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) related to national lifelong guidance policies. The role of ICT in relation to national lifelong guidance policies was conceived as (1) unexploited, (2) emerging, (3) acknowledged but fragmented, and (4) strategic. The hierarchical structure of the findings may serve as a tool to enable policy makers and other stakeholders to deepen their understanding of critical aspects that may have an important role in relation to further developments and the successful implementation of existing an…
Les modalités de changement dans le système éducatif français
2001
Dans l'Education nationale, tout se passe comme si les décisions politiques prises étaient naturelles, comme si la solution retenue s'imposait, comme si la rationalité développée par le décideur concentrait l'ensemble des vertus traditionnellement attachées au concept même de rationalité. Mais de quelle rationalité s'agit-il en réalité ? Les études effectuées sur les systèmes éducatifs français et francophones semblent montrer que les déterminants internes aux systèmes l'emportent sur les déterminants externes, comme si la logique propre et spécifique du système éducatif constituait le moteur nécessaire et quasi suffisant de toute évolution. Les différents protagonistes développent des argu…
Pratiques de recherche documentaire et réussite universitaire des étudiants de première année
2013
En ligne sur Cairn : http://www.cairn.info/revue-carrefours-de-l-education-2013-1-page-197.htm; National audience; Consacrée à l'étude des méthodes de recherche des étudiants entrant à l'université, cette recherche empirique s'appuie sur une enquête auprès d'étudiants de première année de Langues. Elle met en évidence la coexistence de différentes méthodes de recherche documentaire parmi les étudiants à l'issue du premier semestre universitaire. Il est montré que les sollicitations des enseignants peuvent être déterminantes pour l'adoption de ces méthodes, et que filles et garçons se singularisent. L'observation de la réussite aux premiers examens universitaires met en évidence les différen…
Italian adaptation of the Group Questionnaire: validity and factorial structure
2020
The Group Questionnaire (GQ) is a measure recently developed by Krogel et al. (2013) for the evaluation of the therapeutic relationship in group. The GQ identifies a three-factor model of the relationship that allows to measure quality (Positive Bonding, Positive Working and Negative Relationship) and structure (member-member, member-leader and member-group), dimensions in group. This work shows the results of a first study on the Italian validation of the GQ. In this study the GQ was administered to 536 subjects from 32 non-clinical groups of undergraduate students. The cross-cultural validity of the GQ in the Italian population has been examined by comparing the psychometric properties an…

Challenges in implementing ICT in career services : perspectives from career development experts
2018
This article reports the findings from a phenomenographic investigation into career development experts’ conceptions of challenges involved in the implementation of information and communication technologies (ICT) in career services. The results show that these challenges varied from (1) inadequate access to ICT, (2) inadequate access to information, and (3) inadequate skills and competencies, to (4) inadequate integration. These findings provide a deeper understanding of critical aspects that may have an important role in the further development and successful implementation of existing and emerging technologies within the guidance service sector. peerReviewed
