The Stability

A questionnaire concerning attitudes toward the role of women in society was administered once in the fall semester and again in the spring semester to 113 university students. Separate analyses by class (freshman through senior) and sex showed that the fall and spring scores did not differ significantly and were highly correlated. The stability of scores during the school year suggests that a previously reported shift to a more liberal viewpoint with increasing years of college experience may be due more to selective dropout of traditionally oriented students than to changes in attitudes within individuals.

Differences associated with gender in perceptions and attitudes toward mathematics were investigated in a sample of 132 undergraduates. The Mathematics Attitude Questionnaire was administered to 64 male and 68 female college students recruited from general required courses. On three factor scores the college students were compared. The men showed more interest in mathematics and were more likely than the women to enroll in mathematics courses. These findings suggest that women's attitudes and perceptions toward mathematics are less positive than those of men. The influences of environmental variables on college students' attitudes toward mathematics were also discussed.

Students Attitudes

The utilization of professional help is affected by individual factors such as help-seeking attitudes and self-concealment as well as the availability of mental health services. The present study examined the role of cultural self-construal and self-concealment on attitudes toward professional psychological services. A survey was conducted with 214 Japanese college students. Multiple regression analyses found that interdependent self-construal significantly predicted the Recognition of Need for Psychological Services. Self-concealment was predictive of two different facets of help-seeking attitudes: Interpersonal Openness and Stigma Tolerance. Future studies are recommended to refine the model that was tested.

Practical Recommendations

In the context of cross-cultural mediation in translation the problem of switching between different conceptual and linguistic worldviews is of particular interest. The present paper suggests that this switching should be seen as switching between different linguacultural roles, i.e. the roles of members of the source and target cultures. The aim of this article is to identify and describe the psychological resources, processes and mechanisms involved in taking the role of a member of a different culture. Based on the analysis of relevant literature the following psychological resources required for taking a different linguacultural role have been identified: a) empathy; b) agency; c) creativity; d) reflection; e) willingness to invest in taking a new role. The practical value of the present paper is determined by the fact that a better understanding of the above-mentioned psychological resources, processes and mechanisms can enable improvements in teaching translation and foreign languages to trainee translators by making students’ learning activity more conscious, purposeful and professionally-oriented. Practical recommendations for implementing the proposed ideas are provided.
