Suicide Ideation Among College Students Evidencing Subclinical Depression

Abstract

Identifying elevated suicide ideation in college students is a critical step in preventing suicide attempts and deaths by suicide on college campuses. Although suicide ideation may be most prominent in students with severe depression, this should not suggest that only students with severe depression experience significant risk factors for suicide. Objective: The purpose of these 3 studies was to explore the relation between suicide ideation and severity of depressive symptoms in college students. Participants: In each study a sample of college students were recruited for participation. Methods: Participants completed self-report assessments of depressive symptoms and suicide ideation. Results: The results of these studies suggest that although the greatest elevation in suicide ideation occurs at the highest depressive symptoms, significant suicide ideation is also experienced by college students with mild and moderate depressive symptoms. Conclusions: The implications of these findings for the assessment of suicide ideation are discussed.     

Addressing Elder Abuse: The Waterloo Restorative Justice Approach to Elder Abuse Project

The Community Care Access Centre (CCAC) of Waterloo Region, in partnership with a number of other social service agencies, designed and implemented a restorative justice model applicable to older adults who have been abused by an individual in a position of trust. The project was very successful in building partnerships, as many community agencies came together to deal with the problem of elder abuse. The program also raised the profile of elder abuse in the community. However, despite intensive efforts, referrals to the restorative justice program were quite low. Because of this, the program moved to a new organizational model, the Elder Abuse Response Team (EART), which has retained the guiding philosophy of restorative justice but has broadened the mandate. The team has evolved into a conflict management system that has multiple points of entry for cases and multiple options for dealing with elder abuse. The team has developed a broad range of community partners who can facilitate referrals to the EART and also can help to provide an individualized response to each case. The transition to the EART has been successful, and the number of referrals has increased significantly.     

文本-技术-语境：传媒人类学（Media Anthropology）的谱系

随着传媒时代的发展,在理解人类社会新问题的实践中,人类学家向传媒研究投射了更多关注的目光,由此生发了在传播学与人类学交叉领域进行的理论实践,即传媒人类学研究。从文本、技术和语境三个方面,系统梳理传媒人类学发展的历史脉络,无疑能为传媒人类学的理论本土化,提供系统的理论谱系和参照点。     

两岸大学内部治理结构之比较——基于大学章程的视角

Anti-Homophobia Education in Public Schooling: A Canadian Case Study of Policy Implementation

SUMMARY

An 18-month study investigating the implementation of a Canadian anti-homophobia school policy found that such policies need to address homophobic ideas, institutional forms of homophobia and heterosexism, and individual expressions of homophobia. Teacher development is identical as an area in which Canadian policy implementation can be improved. More resources are needed to support the complex negotiations that educators must undertake when their professional and personal commitments to equity and human rights education collide with their own and others' personal and community religious beliefs about homosexuality.     

论西方大学组织文化的价值取向——以大学校训为例

大学校训随着近现代意义上大学的创建而产生,反映了大学深厚的历史传统与文化底蕴,集中体现了大学作为一个社会组织特有的文化个性和精神理念,引领着大学的价值取向,反映了大学独具特色的组织文化。西方大学校训具有“追求真理”、“崇尚自由、“服务社会”的价值取向,建立了完善的大学组织文化,使大学自身与社会和谐发展,在原有培养人才、科学研究和服务社会三大职能的基础上进一步拓展,成为经济社会发展的发动机和服务站,从而适应当今科技、学术、文化飞速发展的要求。

地道战再研——以"五一""扫荡"后之冀中地区为中心的考察

地道战是冀中军民在反击日军"扫荡"的过程中产生,随着战争形势的变化而逐步发展的.有关冀中地道战的研究始于20世纪40年代.但是,尽管有关地道战的研究开展较早,尽管人们通过各种媒介已经对之耳熟能详,客观来讲,有关地道战的研究还很不完善甚至可以说很薄弱,有一些具体问题还需要继续探讨.本文从"五一""扫荡"后冀中地道战开展的动因、地道战开展过程中所取得的战绩、地道战开展过程中所体现的特点及其在抗日战争中所起的作用等三个方面对冀中地道战进行了再研究.文章认为,地道战不仅在中国军事战争史上是一个创造,即便是在世界军事战争史上也是一个奇迹,它是第二次世界大战时期在中国特殊环境下形成的一种斗争方式,具有战争范式的重大意义,冀中军民在开展地道战过程中结合本地实际情况所体现出来的求实、创新、奋斗精神永远值得我们后人学习.
