The Relationship

The relationship between students´ evaluation of the school subject Ethics Education and students´ type of prosocial moral reasoning and behaviours is described in the study. Prosocial moral reasoning, prosocial behaviour in the school questionnaire, and our own Ethics Education evaluation measure was used in the study. Research sample included students of 6th grades of 26 primary schools from the western part of Slovakia: 579 participants (49,7% female, Mage = 11,27; SD = .71). There is evidence which supports the idea that the positive attitude to Ethics Education is linked to developmentally higher types of reasoning and higher prevalence of prosocial behaviours.

The Relationship

Understanding the role of ethics committees in providing ethics consultations, ethics education, and ethics-related policies is the context for exploring the relationship of ethics, psychiatry, and religious and spiritual beliefs. After a brief history of biomedical ethics in the United States since the mid-20th century, this chapter presents several case studies that exemplify frequently encountered tensions in these relationships. The central contention is that respecting these beliefs is not equivalent to acquiescing to ethical claims based on them. Rigorous critical reflection and psychiatric insight, coupled with the values embedded in the social practices of healthcare, provide the grounds for evaluating the weight and bearing of religious and spiritual beliefs in ethically complex cases. This is one contribution that ethics committees can make at the intersection of psychiatry and religion.

The study is a part of international research, the aim of which was to examine a less known aspect of music education in four Central European countries: Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Slovakia. The research focused on school students aged between 8 and 12, N=805. The study explored the educational structure and curricula of the participating countries. It also put the emphasis on the teaching methods for introducing music to student; furthermore, it examined the presentation of live music. In the course of our research we examined the role of social variants with regard to the cultural activities of the children. Moreover, we explored the correlation between parental cultural capital and children’s interest in classical music. Another important aspect of our study was the international comparison focusing on the differences and similarities in music education between various countries. The third issue examined in detail was the relationship between the formal and non-formal education, i.e. how the extra-curricular education (such as experience pedagogy and concert pedagogy) can become part of the everyday pedagogical work of the schools.

Children’S Hope Scale

We examined the moderating role of hope in the relationship between perceived discrimination and life satisfaction among left-behind children in China. Participants were 588 left-behind pupils at three rural primary schools, who completed the Children's Hope Scale, the Perceived Discrimination Questionnaire of the Left-Behind Children, and the Students' Life Satisfaction Scale. Results show that there were significant correlations between the perceived discrimination, hope, and life satisfaction of our participants. In addition, hope significantly alleviated the negative effect of perceived discrimination on life satisfaction. We can conclude that perceived discrimination and hope both significantly predicted life satisfaction, and hope moderated the effect of perceived discrimination on life satisfaction among left-behind children in China. Our findings have implications for school teachers and social workers to help reduce left-behind children's hurt resulting from perceived discrimination.

Ethics Education

W niniejszym tekście przeanalizowano związek zachodzący między oceną lekcji etyki przez uczniów a typem rozumowania moralnego, który oni prezentują. W celu zbadania tej zależności posłużono się trzema kwestionariuszami: kwestionariuszem prospołecznego rozumowania moralnego, kwestionariuszm zachowań prospołecznych w szkole i opracowanym przez autora niniejszej publikacji kwestionariuszem oceny lekcji etyki. Próba badawcza obejmowała uczniów klas szóstych z dwudziestu sześciu szkół podstawowych z zachodniej części Słowacji w liczbie 579 uczestników (49,7 % dziewcząt, średnia wieku wyniosła 11,27, SD =0.71). Badanie dostarczyło dowodów na prawdziwość tezy, że pozytywne nastawienie do lekcji etyki wiąże się z wyższym poziomem rozumowania moralnego i powszechniejszym przejawianiem zachowań prospołecznych.

The Relationship

Intramural programs on college campuses enforce standards of moral conduct, otherwise known as “good sportsmanship,” in their programs. Moral development education focuses on helping students reach higher levels of moral reasoning (Kohlberg, 1981). To achieve higher levels of moral reasoning requires one to first clarify her or his values. This research explores the relationship between participation in intramural programs and values clarification. Values clarification assumes if an individual is successful in clarifying her or his own values, then changes in behavior will result. When values are not clear, students' lives lack direction and decisions about how to spend their time and energy (Raths, Harmin, & Simon, 1966). According the theory of values clarification, individuals who are confused or unclear about their values will tend to behave in immature, over-conforming, or over-dissenting ways, while individuals who possess clarified values behave in calm, confident, and purposeful ways (Kinnier, 1995). Through the enforcement of good sportsmanship in an intramural program, opportunities are provided for individuals to clarify their values, thus contributing to the overall development of the student.
