This article connects the two fields of cooperative learning and intercultural education. We argue that cooperative learning strategies need to be equipped with intercultural understandings. Two key points that are raised here are: (1) that issues of competitiveness amongst learners and students must be dealt with head on rather than treating it from the sidelines or by brushing them aside; and (2) for learning to take place in a truly cooperative manner, there must be an emphasis on an intercultural focus within the curriculum; the content of knowledge within the curriculum needs to be non-centric. This article emphasizes that cooperative learning strategies are effective when the curricular knowledge taught in the school is drawn from all groups (dominant, subordinate or minority groups). 相似文献

Cultural variables (e.g., cultural values, acculturation and attitudes towards seeking professional assistance) have been
found to play important roles in the initiation and maintenance of numerous mental health and substance related problems.
However, there is a significant lack of empirical studies investigating the relationships between these cultural variables
and gambling behavior. Thus, this study assessed whether these cultural variables could predict gambling behavior among 233
Chinese residing in Australia. Several questionnaires were used in the study including the South Oaks Gambling Screen (SOGS),
the Asian Values Scale (AVS), Attitudes towards Seeking Psychological Help Scale (ATSPHS) and the modified version of the
Cultural Life Style Inventory (CLSI). Results showed that although adherence to Asian values could not predict gambling behavior,
acculturation (i.e., cultural shift and cultural incorporation) could negatively predict gambling behavior. Furthermore, the
interpersonal openness subscale of ATSPHS could predict gambling behavior. Implications of these findings are discussed. 相似文献

Gambling cognitions have constantly been associated with the development and maintenance of problem gambling. Despite researchers
reporting high rates of gambling and problem gambling among the Chinese, little is known about the role of gambling cognitions
among Chinese individuals (Raylu & Oei, 2004a). This is partly because there is a lack of validated instruments to assess gambling cognitions in this population. Thus,
the purpose of the present study was to examine and validate the Gambling Related Cognitions Scale-Chinese version (GRCS-C),
which was based on the 23-item Gambling Related Cognitions Scale (GRCS; Raylu & Oei, 2004b). Confirmatory Factory Analysis (CFA) using 422 Chinese participants (166 Male, 256 Female; Mean age = 32.28 years) from
the general community (221 living in Australia and 201 living in Taiwan) confirmed that a five-factor model was a good fit
for the data. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for the overall scale was .95, and ranged from .83 to .89 for the five factors.
Concurrent, discriminant, and predictive validities of the GRCS (Chinese version) were also good suggesting that the GRCS-C
is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing gambling cognitions among non-clinical Chinese samples. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of an Internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy program (I-CBT) for the treatment of problem gambling, when compared to a waitlist control and an active comparison condition consisting of monitoring, feedback, and support (I-MFS). Participants (N = 174) were randomly allocated to the three conditions. Variables of interest were gambling outcome and related mental health measures. Participants in the active conditions (I-CBT and I-MFS) completed six online modules. Both I-CBT and I-MFS conditions resulted in significant treatment gains on gambling severity. However, I-CBT was also associated with reductions in a range of other gambling-related and mental health outcomes. Compared with I-MFS, I-CBT produced greater effects across seven outcomes measures, relating to gambling urges, cognitions, stress, and life satisfaction. I-CBT participants also rated the program as significantly more satisfactory. Treatment gains observed for both active conditions were found to be stable through to 12 month follow up. The results indicate that the benefits of I-CBT were more than simply the non-specific effects of engaging in online treatment or receiving motivation, feedback, and support. Online treatments for gambling may be a valuable tool in increasing help-seeking and treatment engagement in this population, and be integrated as part of stepped care approaches to treatment. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Chinese 9-item Problem Gambling Severity Index
(PGSI) derived from the 31-item Canadian Problem Gambling Index (CPGI) originally developed by Ferris and Wynne (2001). Exploratory factor analysis (EFA; n = 386; Group A data) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA; n = 387; Group B data) on the Chinese student and community data (Mean age = 25.36 years) showed that a unifactorial model
fitted the data with good reliability score (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.77). The concurrent validity of the PGSI-C was good in terms
of the Chinese data matching the expected correlation between PGSI-C and other variables or scales such as SOGS, gambling
frequency, gambling urge, gambling cognitions, depression, anxiety, and stress. The scale also reported good discriminant
and predictive validity. In sum, the PGSI-C has good psychometric properties and can be used among Chinese communities to
identify at-risk problem gamblers. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed. 相似文献

The current Medicare reimbursement for hip fractures lacks accountability and promotes cost cutting. A bundled payment system—analogous to the Medicare Acute Care Episodes Demonstration for Orthopedic and Cardiovascular Surgery—may help curtail costs, foster communication among health care providers, and improve their accountability for patient outcomes. In hip fracture care, bundled payment may spur development of multidisciplinary best practice guidelines, quality assessment, and reporting, and result in benchmarking and best practices sharing. However, its implementation may face challenges: the need for quality assessment criteria and risk adjustment methods and possible risks of pushing costs outside of Medicare boundaries. 相似文献
