Wie Lehrkräfte Forschungswissen in niedrig- und hoch-komplexen Situationen nutzen können
Unterschiedliche Konzeptionen zur Behandlung des Theorie-Praxis-Problems können einander ergänzen, auch wenn sie verschiedenen Paradigmen entstammen. In dem Beitrag wird argumentiert, dass „Transfermodelle“, die der Vorstellung folgen, dass Forschungswissen vergleichsweise direkt in Handeln umgesetzt werden kann, sich eher für niedrig-komplexe pädagogische Situationen eignen. In hoch-komplexen Situationen scheinen dagegen eher „Transformierungsmo…
Conflicts between on-task and off-task behaviors in the classroom
Self‐control as predictor of school grades, life balance, and flow in adolescents
Background. Recently, several studies have shown that strength of self‐control is a crucial factor in determining positive outcomes in individuals’ lives. Most attention has been directed to the relationships that self‐control has with learning and academic achievement. Aims. This article analyses the effects of self‐control not only on school grades but also on the experience of life balance and flow. It is theorized that students with a higher …
Reciprocal relationships between value orientation and motivational interference during studying and leisure
Background. Motivational interference is defined as the amount of impairment in a target activity due to the incentives of a non‐chosen attractive alternative.

At the same time, values may also be effects of frequen…

The model tested in this study posits that postmodern value orientations are positively related to procrastina…
Jugendliche zwischen Schule und Freizeit
Subjective Experiences of Social Change in East and West Germany
The major objective of the present study was to elucidate factors influencing experiences of the societal situation and its changes as reported by adolescents and their parents. Earlier analyses involving an instrument developed to capture perceptions of macrosocial conditions suggested that family members' perceptions do reflect actual processes on the societal level but cannot be interpreted as a mirror-image of these processes. In the present …
Soziales Engagement Jugendlicher
In diesem Beitrag stellen wir Grundlagen für eine präskriptive Theorie zur Gestaltung von Programmen dar, die Jugendliche in freiwillige soziale Tätigkeiten einbinden. Die Berücksichtigung der vorgeschlagenen Anforderungen bei der Gestaltung solcher Programme soll wahrscheinlich machen, daß sie attraktiv für heutige Jugendliche sind und deren Identitätsentwicklung fördern. Da nach heutigem empirischen Kenntnisstand freiwillige soziale Tätigkeit p…

Study results show that East and West German adolescents' aggressive and antiforeigner attitudes are linked to stressful experiences in school and family but also to societal conditions as perceived by the adolescents
