Overview: Describes an emerging new field in psychology, focusing on psychological universals in social, cultural, and ecological contexts.Provides a starting point for psychologists who wish to understand vari.It was once assumed that the bedrock concepts of psychology held true for all the world’s peoples. More recently, post-modern approaches to research have expanded on these Western models, building a psychology that takes into account the sociopolitical, historical, religious, ecological, and other indigenous factors that make every culture, as well as every person as agents of their own

Overview: Explores how Identity Structure Analysis can be applied to teacher professional development.Questions why Identity Structure Analysis is not made use of in a profession where turnover is extremely higThis book examines the benefits of applying the Identity Structure Analysis (ISA) to teacher professional development. At present no government, local authority or school is actively applying Identity Structure Analysis to monitor school improvement: in a profession where turnover is extremely high, ISA is framed as a way for professional development to meet the needs of the specific tea

Overview: This book is about generalized linear models as described by NeIder and Wedderburn (1972). This approach provides a unified theoretical and computational framework for the most commonly used statistical methods: regression, analysis of variance and covariance, logistic regression, log-linear models for contingency tables and several more specialized techniques. More advanced expositions of the subject are given by McCullagh and NeIder (1983) and Andersen (1980). The emphasis is on the use of statistical models to investigate substantive questions rather than to produce mathematical d

W?hrend die für die Praxis weniger relevanten statischen Ans?tze nur kurz dargestellt werden, liegt der Schwerpunkt auf den dynamischen Ans?tzen und daraus abzuleitenden Kennzahlen für die detaillierte Analyse aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln. Das Buch richtet sich an Praktiker, die Investitionen und ih unter Cont

Overview: This book focuses on constructivist theory and collaborative interdisciplinary studies, showing how constructivist theory complements interdisciplinary studies.Constructivist theory stresses how learners construct new ideas and concepts, while the interdisciplinary method requires that learners approach complex problems from multiple perspectives. ?The author uses the New York City College of Technology as a model to demonstrate how learning can be embedded in complex, realistic, and relevant environments.As a result, students learn to consider significant issues from a variety of vi

Overview: Books dealing with climatic change are commonplace, as are those concerned with effects of environmental stresses on plants. The present volume distinguishes itself from earlier publications by highlighting several interrelated environmental stresses that are changing in intensity as the climate warms in response to the accumulation of ‘greenhouse‘ gases. The stresses examined at the NATO Advanced Research Workshop upon which this book is based include atmospheric pollutants, flooding and sub- mergence, drought and cold. In future, successful farming or landscape management will ulti
