Agreement Between Mothers and Fathers on the Identification of Infant Communicative Acts
The extent to which mothers and fathers agree on what they identify as their infant's communicative acts was investigated. Nineteen infants (6 at 6 months, 7 at 9 months, and 6 at 12 months) and their parents participated. A randomization procedure controlled for the frequencies and durations of the communicative acts identified by the parents, and the procedure produced a distribution of 10,000 “chance” agreement values for each parent pair with…
Revisiting academics' beliefs about teaching and learning
Trainees' experience of postgraduate clinical training
Current postgraduate clinical trainees' opinions regarding both the strengths and weaknesses of training were investigated. Sixteen participants were recruited from six universities across four Australian states. Gender distribution matched that of training courses generally, with 14 female students and 2 male participants, aged between 23 and 44 years. Trainees participated in semistructured interviews about the main components of clinical train…
Mothers' ability to identify infants' communicative acts consistently
A mother's ability to identify consistently what she perceives to be communicatively salient behaviours is considered to be fundamental to the process of responding sensitively to prelinguistic infants. The present study investigated the ability of 35 mothers to identify consistently what they perceived to be communicative acts by infants at three ages (0;6, 0;9, and 1;0). Each mother coded the same videotape of her infant's behaviour on two occa…
Optimizing the care of patients with depression in primary care
Depression is a very common mental illness within the general population and in-patients consulting in general practice. General practitioners are well placed to provide care for patients with mental health problems, as these disorders are often connected with family and social problems, and GPs can provide their patients with long-term follow-up and support. While there are theoretical reasons for the important role of the family doctor, there i…
Researching university teaching in Australia
University teaching is a diverse enterprise which encompasses a range of disciplines, curricula, teaching methods, learning tasks and learning approaches. Within this diversity, common themes and issues which reflect academics' understanding of effective teaching may be discerned. Drawing on written data collected from 708 practising teachers who were nominated by their Heads or Deans as exhibiting exemplary teaching practice, and from interviews…
Individual differences in story comprehension and recall of poor readers
This study sought to identify poor readers and characterise weaknesses in their knowledge and use of story structure in comprehension and recall. Eighty year 3 children, 20 good readers and 60 poor readers, were selected from an initial pool of children based on factor analysis of scores from three measures of reading ability. The poor readers were then divided into relatively homogeneous subgroups, using eight additional measures of language‐rea…
Enhancing environmental conceptions
A structured controversy approach to teaching in environmental education is evaluated. Learning experiences which challenge and enhance students' conceptions of environmental issues and environmental education by confronting them with alternative viewpoints and evidence were trialled in two postgraduate environmental teacher education courses. Findings indicate that as a result of participating in the learning experiences, students formulated the…
