“90后”大学生信息获取渠道与价值观的形成研究

"90后"大学生、出生成长在信息时代,信息获取渠道的多元化对他们的价值观形成造成较大的影响。其中,值得关注的影响有:信息焦虑与价值认同的矛盾、道德价值观体现传承特性、政治热情与冷漠并存、人生价值的媒介之"伤"等。因此,要净化媒介环境,提高"90后"大学生媒介素养,实现价值观教育的功能一致性,以强化主导价值观的引导作用。     

后现代视阈中大学生非主流现象

作为一种社会现象和社会存在,非主流文化深刻影响了大学生尤其是90后大学生日常生活的方方面面。非主流大学生在话语特征、思想观念和行为方式方面有独特的符号系统;非主流文化反映了后现代个体强烈的从众心理、逆反心理、娱乐心理、抗争心理和渴望展现自我的心理;非主流现象的盛行启示青年研究工作应转变范式,青年教育工作应更新理念,文化建设应兼容并蓄;对待非主流现象,应顺其自然,让时间和历史来检验非主流文化存在的价值与意义。     

大学生流行语变迁的心理学分析

大学生流行语是在某一个特定时期内,流行于高校大学生中的一种具有代表性的话语,能够概括性地反映出当代社会的某种本质性特点及大学生的普遍心态。大学生流行语的价值取向表现出兼容性、多样性和时代性特点。负面词汇流行语是大学生释放心理压力的一种方式。同时,大学生并不会偏重某一方面的流行,而是兼容了正负面的影响。大学生流行语体现了当代大学生的心理状态,成为大学生社会文化心态的表征符号,为我们了解大学生的心理状态和人生价值取向等问题提供了一面镜子。     

后现代主义思潮与大学生价值观嬗变

进入新时期以来,在西方后现代主义思潮的浸染下,我国大学生的价值观发生了嬗变:由单一向多元转变、集体向个人位移、理想向世俗变动,甚至呈现出与我国社会主义核心价值观相背离的风险。后现代主义语境下的这一嬗变,因循于社会结构的变迁和大学生思维的非真实化变动,并深刻地受到大众传媒低俗化的影响。面对大学生价值观取向的变迁,引导大学生正确认识后现代主义思潮、强化大学生价值观再培育、发挥社会主义核心价值观的整合作用显得尤为重要。     

大学生社会文化价值观特征分析

一个民族的文化通常有其系统性与适用的价值观,在当今中西文化交融的时代背景下,作为未来栋梁的大学生选择何种价值观体系,一直受到学术界的普遍关注。借鉴相关价值观研究理论,通过因子分析的方法,归纳出大学生的7个价值观类型,并揭示出大学生社会文化价值观的主要特征,即儒家思想中的进取精神得到了大学生的普遍认同,而极端功利与利己主义受到大学生的强烈排斥,大学生的"自我意识"呈现出不统一的特点,实用主义观念在大学生中广泛存在,传统价值观中的"节俭观"和"宿命论"在大学生中受到了严峻的挑战。     

An investigation of the endowment effect in the context of a college housing lottery

The endowment effect was examined in a two-part study in the context of a college housing lottery. Students who were awarded their first choice of residence hall were asked the lowest dollar amount they would be willing to accept (WTA) to give up their first choice hall whereas students who were denied their first choice were asked the highest dollar amount they would be willing to pay (WTP) to obtain their first choice. Results from the initial assessment showed the presence of the endowment effect regarding students’ valuation of their first choice residence hall immediately after the housing lottery (i.e., WTA price was significantly higher than WTP price). The follow-up surveyed participants from the initial assessment who responded when contacted a second time after they had experienced two months of life in the residence hall they were awarded in the lottery. Results from the follow-up showed that the endowment effect was still present after experiencing life in the residence hall. Moreover, further analyses revealed that the endowment effect was, in fact, enhanced after the living experience. These findings demonstrate that within the context of a housing lottery, a highly-valued commodity, long-term experiences substantially increase the magnitude of the endowment effect, even when controlling for other factors that have been shown to impact this effect.

Readiness for college engagement among students who have aged out of foster care

This study compares self-reported readiness to engage in college between a sample of 81 college freshmen who aged out of foster care prior to or while attending a large four-year public university and the national freshman population. Results indicate that students from foster care are significantly different from their non-foster-care peers in their readiness to engage in college. The results also show that foster youth are less well prepared academically upon entering college and this performance gap persists through the first semester of college. These findings are examined in the context of the current literature on foster youth. Limitations of the study and implications for future research and practice are discussed.
