Reconciling well-being and resilience for sustainable development
Muck and Magic: A Resilience Lens on Organic Conversions as Transformation
Transformation creates space to consider the profound changes necessary for society to pursue just and sustainable social-ecological systems. Transformation involves profound and complex change, yet there are few empirical studies that analyze transformation across multiple spheres of a social-ecological system. This article aims to address this gap by applying a resilience lens to analyze transformation as a component of UK farmers’ conversions …
Construct validity of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fourth UK Edition with a referred Irish sample: Wechsler and Cattell-Horn-Carroll model comparisons with 15 subtests
BackgroundIrish educational psychologists frequently use the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fourth UK Edition (WISC-IVUK; Wechsler, 2004, Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fourth UK Edition, London, UK, Harcourt Assessment) in clinical assessments of children with learning difficulties. Unfortunately, reliability and validity studies of the WISC-IVUK standardization sample have not yet been reported. Watkins et al. (2013, Inter…

Incremental validity of Wisc – IV UK factor index scores with a referred I rish sample: Predicting performance on the Wiat – II UK
BACKGROUND: Subtest and factor scores have typically provided little incremental predictive validity beyond the omnibus IQ score. AIMS: This study examined the incremental validity of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fourth UK Edition (WISC-IV(UK) ; Wechsler, 2004a, Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fourth UK Edition, Harcourt Assessment, London, UK) and factor index scores in predicting academic achievement on the Wechsler Ind…
Responsibility Ethics and Postliberalism: Rereading H. Richard Niebuhr's The Meaning of Revelation
Postliberals have hailed H. Richard Niebuhr's The Meaning of Revelation as a harbinger of narrative theology. A careful reading of Niebuhr's argument, however, suggests a theological ethic that is at once attentive to the narrative formation of agency and yet distinct from postliberalism because of its attention to the divine object of Christians' stories. Niebuhr's theocentrism yields a view of narrative as opened from the inside because it requ…

Totality in Private and Public Schooling
Forms of organized authority that eclipse freedom of thought and action exist as a possibility in both public and private schooling. An extreme case of the excessive use of public authority offers a point of departure for reflecting on historical patterns of resistance through private schooling in the United States. One implication for public policy is that greater attention to democratic versus authoritarian aspects of socialization, in both the…

Modifying the impact of persuasive communications with external distraction
Engaging in an irrelevant, distracting activity while simultaneously processing a persuasive communication has a salutary effect upon attitude change if the audience is set to attend primarily to the message, but the opposite effect if they are set toward the distracting activity. The conditions necessary for demonstrating this relationship are sensitive to operational details which were not sufficiently well controlled in previous research (nor …
Exile Within: The Schooling of Japanese Americans 1942-1945
During World War II, 110,000 Japanese Americans--30,000 of them children--were torn from their homes and incarcerated in camps surrounded by barbed wire and military guards in what the ACLU has called the greatest deprivation of civil rights by government in this country since slavery. The experience of these children left a tangle of social meanings that had not been inspected with the care it deserves until this book was written. Because they w…
State Government and American Public Education: "Exploring the "Primeval Forest
James Bryce observed in 1888 that who would understand the changes [in] the American democracy will find far more instruction in a study of the State governments than of the Federal Constitution. So neglected was the subject, he found, that could not even be called a field: it is rather a primeval forest, where the vegetation is rank, and through which scarcely a trail has yet been cut. Although Bryce himself cut one such path in The American Com…
Broken Promises: How Americans Fail Their Children
Life Begins with Freedom: The College Nisei, 1942-1945
EDUCATION, wrote Margaret Mead in 1943, creates a drama of between parents and children in modern life. By encouraging children to be different from their parents, education holds forth the possibility, unknown to traditional societies, of introducing new values, even bringing new worlds into being. The dark side of this possibility is that education can degenerate into techniques of power, teaching through irndoctrination and locking the future …
