Argumentointi on tunnistettu tärkeäksi koulutuksen tavoitteeksi, minkä vuoksi sitä on painotettu luonnontieteiden opetuksessa. Painotus on avannut lupaavia mahdollisuuksia, mutta myös ongelmia, joiden ymmärtämiseksi tarkastelemme neljää argumentoinnin mallia. Tavoitteena on ymmärtää, millaisella mallilla voitaisiin kattavasti kuvata fysiikan tiedon argumentointia opettajakoulutuksen kontekstissa. Toulmin kuvaa argumentin rakennetta ottamatta kantaa sisältötiedon oikeellisuuteen. Böttcher ja Meisert kuvaavat argumentointia selitysmallien kehittymisen näkökulmasta. Sampson tarkastelee argumentointia koulukokeellisuuden näkökulmasta. Sandoval ja Millwood käsittelevät argumentin käsitteellistä ja episteemistä laatua. Argumentointimallit ovat ansiokkaita, mutta riittämättömiä fysiikan tiedon luonteen kuvaamiseksi. Niistä puuttuu muun muassa fysiikan tiedonmuodostuksen kannalta keskeinen teorialähtöisen päätelmän näkökulma. Fysiikan tiedon argumentointiin tarvitaankin fysiikan tiedon luonteesta kumpuava malli.   Argumentation Models in Illustrating Physics Knowledge Abstract Understanding scientific argumentation is an important educational goal. To emphasize argumentation in science class, we need suitable models to illustrate what argumentation is. We review four argumentation models to find perspectives for specifically physics argumentation. Toulmin’s model identifies argumentative moves. Böttcher and Meisert see argumentation as comparing data and explanatory models. Sampson looks at the use of evidence. Sandoval and Millwood study the conceptual and epistemic quality of an argument. Deductive reasoning, which is a relevant part of physics knowledge, is not for example lacking in some argumentation models. Physics argumentation needs a model, which raises from the nature of physics knowledge. Keywords: argumentation, argumentation models, physics

Cognitive dysfunction affects the performance of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and the quality of life of people with these deficits and their caregivers. To the knowledge of the authors, to date, there are few studies that focus on knowing the relationship between personal autonomy and deductive reasoning and/or categorization skills, which are necessary for the performance of the ADL. The aim of this study was to explore the relationships between ADL and categorization skills in older people. The study included 51 participants: 31 patients with cognitive impairment and 20 without cognitive impairment. Two tests were administered to assess cognitive functions: (1) the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA); and (2) the digital version of Riska Object Classification test (ROC-d). In addition, the Routine Tasks Inventory-2 (RTI-2) was applied to determine the level of independence in activities of daily living. People with cognitive impairment performed poorly in categorization tasks with unstructured information (p = 0.006). Also, the results found a high correlation between cognitive functioning and the performance of ADLs (Physical ADL: r = 0.798; p < 0.001; Instrumental ADL: r = 0.740; p < 0.001), a moderate correlation between Physical ADLs and categorization skills (unstructured ROC-d: r = 0.547; p < 0.001; structured ROC-d: r = 0.586; p < 0.001) and Instrumental ADLs and categorization skills in older people (unstructured ROC-d: r = 0.510; p < 0.001; structured ROC-d: r = 0.463; p < 0.001). The ROC-d allows the assessment of categorization skills to be quick and easy, facilitating the assessment process by OT, as well as the accuracy of the data obtained.

When disagreements arise about the quality of arguments, arguers frequently rely on coherence. Argumentative coherence is mainly manifested in accusations of incoherence and in the production of analogies. With the help of the elements of warrant and of rebuttals in Toulmin's model, it is possible to give a first analysis of this notion.

Attempts to understand the underlying etiology of panic disorder have, at times, oscillated between reductionistic biologic or psychologic characterizations that have put pharmacotherapists and cognitive-behavioral therapists on opposite sides of a fence with patients caught in the middle. However, research emerging over the last couple of decades is pointing to a more complex interplay between dysregulated neurobiological systems and psychological factors that influence the manifestations of fear and anxiety and permit a more nuanced view of the etiology of panic disorder while pointing to potential rational strategies for treating patients. The articles in this supplement explore a range of explanatory models relevant to the underlying etiology of panic disorder, and then focus on treatment, including pharmacologic agents, and a paradigm in which cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be efficiently and effectively integrated with pharmacotherapy in an attempt to optimize patient care.In the first article, David Baldwin, MB, BS, DM, FRCPsych, discusses the burden of panic disorder to patients and society; the difficulties associated with misdiagnosis and inadequate treatment; the challenges imposed by excess healthcare utilization, reduced quality of life, and psychiatric and medical comorbidity; and the implications for therapeutics.

Background: The clinical assessment of insight solely employs biomedical perspectives and criteria to the complete exclusion of context and culture and to the disregard of values and value judgments. Aim: The aim of this discussion article is to examine recent research from India on insight and explanatory models in psychosis and re-examine the framework of assessment, diagnosis and management of insight and explanatory models. Methods: Recent research from India on insight in psychosis and explanatory models is reviewed. Results: Recent research, which has used longitudinal data and adjusted for pretreatment variables, suggests that insight and explanatory models of illness at baseline do not predict course, outcome and treatment response in schizophrenia, which seem to be dependent on the severity and quality of the psychosis. It supports the view that people with psychosis simultaneously hold multiple and contradictory explanatory models of illness, which change over time and with the trajectory of the illness. It suggests that insight, like all explanatory models, is a narrative of the person’s reality and a coping strategy to handle with the varied impact of the illness. Conclusion: This article argues that the assessment of insight necessarily involves value entailments, commitments and consequences. It supports a need for a broad-based approach to assess awareness, attribution and action related to mental illness and to acknowledge the role of values and value judgment in the evaluation of insight in psychosis.

The present paper is a critical review of a representative corpus of studies extending from the ’70s until today, that examine the quality of life and mental health of parents, and especially mothers who raise at least one child with autism. This review aims at identifying the factors influencing mental health and perceived quality of life of parents withchildren within the autistic spectrum, drawing on the theoretical model of quality of life developed by Zissi & Barry (2006). This theoretical model posits that quality of life is associated with a variety of factors such as; a), objective living conditions that relate to family socio-economic status and its type, the severity of autism, and the access to therapeutic services, and b) socio-psychological processes that relate to  the different explanatory models, the hardiness, the general life outlook and the quality of ties. This model predicts that socio-psychological processes mediate the relationship between objective living conditions, mental health and subjective evaluations of quality of life.

Education is a conscious and planned effort to create a learning atmosphere and learning process that is actively able to make students develop their potential. Education is expected to be able to create students who have religious spiritual strength, self-control, personality, intelligence, and noble character. These skills are not only needed for themselves, but also useful for the people of the nation and state. Efforts that can be made to ascertain whether an educational goal has been achieved is by conducting an evaluation. This evaluation is carried out to determine whether a program is feasible. In addition, evaluation is intended to control, guarantee, and determine the quality of education related to the sharing of educational components. Evaluation is carried out at all levels and types of education in order to be accountable to students related to the implementation of education that has been carried out by an educational institution. Thus, between teaching and learning activities and evaluation is a continuous series and cannot be separated. This is because evaluation is used as a useful measuring tool to determine and determine the level of success of students in learning activities.

School education has an important role in improving the quality of human resources. School education is a process that involves educators, teaching materials, and learners. "Educators and education personnel are obliged to create a meaningful, fun, creative, dynamic and dialogical atmosphere of conduct, and professionally committed to improving education" (Sisdiknas 2003: 22). In creating meaningful educational background then in every learning must use appropriate strategies and learning approach so that the outcome of the learning is in accordance with the goals we want. Based on the facts, grade 6 students are very interested in learning in school either Mathematics, Indonesian Science or any other field of study, as evidenced by each student's enthusiastic learning activity is quite high and the ability to do the problem gets pretty good (average 6.4). After students learn more formally, students start learning difficulties either Mathematics, Indonesian or Science so that the higher the class of learning results decreases.
