Construction Task

Abstract. The cube construction task represents a novel format in the assessment of spatial ability through mental cube rotation tasks. Instead of selecting the correct answer from several response options, respondents construct their own response in a computerized test environment, leading to a higher demand for spatial ability. In the present study with a sample of 146 German high-school students, we tested an approach to manipulate the item difficulties in order to create items with a greater difficulty range. Furthermore, we compared the cube task in a distractor-free and a distractor-based version while the item stems were held identical. The average item difficulty of the distractor-free format was significantly higher than in the distractor-based format ( M = 0.27 vs. M = 0.46) and the distractor-free format showed a broader range of item difficulties (.02 ≤  pi ≤ .95 vs. .37 ≤  pi ≤ .63). The analyses of the test results also showed that the distractor-free format had a significantly higher correlation with a broad intelligence test ( r = .57 vs. r = .17). Reasons for the higher convergent validity of the distractor-free format (prevention of response elimination strategies and the broader range of item difficulties) and further research possibilities are discussed.

Abstract Choral singing is a novel approach to reduce dementia stigma and social isolation while offering participants a sense of purpose, joy and social connection. The pervasiveness of stigma surrounding dementia remains one of the biggest barriers to living life with dignity following a diagnosis (Alzheimer Society of Canada, 2018). This paper examines how a social inclusion model of dementia care involving an intergenerational choir for people living with dementia, their care partners and high school students can reduce stigma and foster social connections. Multiple methodologies are used to investigate the effects of choir participation on cognition, stress levels, social connections, stigma, and quality of life. Results demonstrate the positive impact of choir participation and indicate that this socially inclusive intervention offers an effective, non-pharmacological alternative for older adults living with dementia in the community. Discussion focuses on the importance of instituting meaningful and engaging dementia-friendly activities at the community level.

The Relationship

Although digital multimodal composing (DMC) is receiving increasing attention in language classrooms, the extent to which it contributes to students’ writing practices is controversial. In order to understand the affordances of DMC compared to traditional monomodal writing in school contexts, it is pertinent to compare DMC and traditional writing using academic integrated-skills tasks. The current study aims to investigate the relationship between the quality of Korean high school students’ multimodal composing and that of the same students’ traditional monomodal writing, as well as content and language alignment. Thirty-one Korean high school students carried out a summary-reflection task through DMC and traditional monomodal writing. After reading a short fable by Aesop, students summarized and reflected on the text. While students used only one mode in traditional writing (i.e. English text), they utilized multiple modes in DMC (e.g. pictures, movies). Students’ task outcomes were scored using analytic rubrics, and texts were coded in terms of the content and linguistic features students retrieved from the text (i.e. alignment) and their degree of reflection. The results showed that there were no statistically significant differences in the quality, content and language alignment, or amount of reflection in writing outcomes between students’ DMC and traditional monomodal writing.

The Relationship

The aim of this research is to determine the correlation between perceived class climate, motivation for achievement and school success among elementary and high school students. The research was conducted on a sample of 400 subjects. The instrument used for class climate survey is an Attitude scale, created as the combination of two instruments for measuring class climate. The MOP/D scale was used to survey motivation for achievement. The obtained results show that the quality of the overall class climate is not high, while the scores on the three dimensions of the class climate indicate that the students perceive Class Cohesion as the most favourable one, then the Teachers? Support and finally the Order and the Organisation. Significant differences in perceptions of class climate were found concerning age. Significant differences in perceptions of climate (both in the overall and in the Teachers? Support dimension) were also found with respect to the gender of the students. The findings indicate low positive correlations between perceived class climate and the motivation for achievement, and also between school success and the motivation for achievement. No correlation was found between the perceived class climate and school success. More detailed research shows that the climate dimensions Teachers? Support and Order and Organisation are significant predictors of the overall motivation for achievement and the Learning dimension, and that they are positively correlated. Learning and Persistence, the dimensions of the motivation for achievement, were found to be significant predictors of school success. A perceived class climate did not prove to be a significant predictor of school success, except for the Class Cohesion dimension, only on the subsample of high school students.

The study was carried out to establish hygienic estimate of labor employment and its effect of health of adolescents in various regions of Russia. The questionnaire survey of 1 500 individuals (senior high school students and students of professional education colleges) was implemented in four regions of the Russian Federation (Moscow, St. Petersburg, Omsk and Pskovsk regions). The quality of life related to health was estimated using standard questionnaire MOS SF-36. It is established that 41.2% of adolescents worked during time free of lessons. In Moscow, number of working adolescents is reliably lower than in other regions (32.8%). The prevalence of illegal labor activity in all oblasts is demonstrated. The regional features of of structure of labor employment according types of work and causes of labor activity is established. The study confirmed that labor activity in adolescent age is a health risk factor. The analysis of health risks demonstrated that in adolescents working all days of week during academic year are established risks of health complaints: leg pains (OR = 2.1, RR = 1.7, EF = 39.4%) in St. Petersburg, back pains (OR = 1.9, RR = 1.5, EF = 35.2%) in Omsk, heartburn (OR = 2.1, RR = 2.4, EF = 44.5%) and other disorders of digestion (OR = 2.4, RR = 1.9, EF = 48.4%) in Pskov. The increased risks are established in adolescents permanently working during academic year: occurrence of health complaints (OR = 2.6, RR = 1.6, EF = 38.8%) in Pskov, complaints on leg pains (OR = 3.2, RR = 2, EF = 49.5%) in Moscow, heartburn (OR = 4.7, RR = 3.4, EF = 70.5%) in Omsk, other disorders of digestion (OR = 4.3, RR = 2.8, EF = 64.4%) in Pskov. In these groups of working adolescents lower levels of indicator of quality of life related to health (according MOS SF-36) - BP scale (pain intensity) are established.
