Child Custody Evaluations in Cases Involving Sexual Abuse: A View from the Bench

SUMMARY

Psychological evaluation and testimony play a critical role in child sexual abuse cases, especially in custody and visitation cases. While the evaluation generally cannot determine whether sexual abuse has occurred, it can provide useful information to assist the court in deciding matters of custody and access in the face of the allegations. Judges need to know the standard of practice for the development of expert opinion in order to be able to evaluate testimony offered by custody evaluators. The informed judge can develop useful input by outlining expectations within the order for evaluation and actively regulating the gate for admission of expert testimony. Elements of a model order for custody evaluations addressing allegations of sexual abuse are proposed.     

The Impact of Experiential Exercises on Communication and Relational Skills in a Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper-Training Program for College Resident Advisors

Abstract

Objective: In an effort to identify students at risk for suicide, many colleges are implementing suicide prevention training for campus gatekeepers. This study evaluated the efficacy of a 3-hour, experiential-based gatekeeper training that included an emphasis on enhancing communication skills and relational connection in addition to the didactic foci of standard gatekeeper training. Participants: Sixty-five college student resident advisors (RAs) were trained with Campus Connect. Methods: The training was dismantled to examine the specific contribution of experiential exercises on training outcomes. Results: Compared to didactic training alone, following participation in experiential exercises RAs’ training outcome scores exhibited additional improvement on the Suicide Intervention Response Inventory–2 and a 14-item self-report measure of self-efficacy for specific suicide- and crisis-related knowledge and skills. Conclusions: In gatekeeper training, experiential exercises emphasizing awareness and empathic responding and practice of these skills contribute to an improvement in crisis response skills above and beyond that of didactic training alone.

College students’ peer-helping behaviors and stigma of seeking help: Testing a moderated mediation model

Abstract

Objective: College students are most likely to seek psychological help from their peers. Internalized public stigma (ie, personal stigma) may prevent peer-helpers from aiding others, and such help-negating effects may depend on contextual factors such as race and gender. The current study examined a moderated mediation model in which the relationship between public stigma and peer intervention behaviors was mediated by personal stigma and moderated by race and gender categories. Method: Undergraduate students (N?=?5,183) from the national Healthy Minds Study completed measures of help-seeking stigma and peer-helping behaviors. Results: Conditional Process Modeling revealed that personal stigma fully mediated the link between public stigma and peer-helping behaviors. Gender (but not race) moderated these associations such that the indirect and direct effects were stronger from men than women. Conclusions: Peer-helper interventions may benefit from culture-specific re-norming messages and by addressing the role of gender in peer-helping.     

作为解释框架的新闻传播四维结构

本文以美国学者怀特的“新闻选择的把关模式”为基础 ,但却不以传播者的把关为关注中心 ,而是根据新闻传播过程的现实 ,同时考量四个维度 :信息强度、传播者视野度、受众关注度与现实真性度 ,从而将新闻传播置于一个动态的过程中 ,在矛盾运动中来为新闻传播提供一个合乎实际的解释。新闻传播的四维结构在修正怀特模式的基础上 ,意在作为解释框架     

知识守门者、超本地知识流动与产业集群升级

知识守门者对于保持产业集群的动态开放性至关重要,它对产业集群的超本地知识流动具有重要的推动作用。产业集群的超本地知识流动包含了链接集群内外部的四种关键知识流,而知识守门者通过自身的知识吸收行为、知识转译行为和知识扩散行为促进了这四种关键知识流的形成和发展,进而促进了以知识更新为根本特征的产业集群升级。建议政府正确识别并有效培育知识守门者,促进知识守门者向本地集群企业的知识扩散并构建超本地的知识网络。     

从把关人理论看当代新闻人才的培养

新闻从业人员作为重要的"把关人",在新闻报道的采集阶段、加工阶段和发表阶段都掌握着信息传播的生杀大权.作为向媒介产业源源不断输送新鲜血液的高等院校新闻传播类专业,在信息时代的大环境下如何培养适应社会需求的合格新闻人才,是面临的一项新的课题.本文从新闻把关人理论的角度探讨当前高校新闻人才培养问题,提出高校应强化"通识教育",与新闻单位保持密切联系,加强新闻实践环节,积极培养学生的媒介组织观念和政策观念.     

新闻真实性的语言构拟

从语言学的角度来看,新闻的真实是通过语言世界对客观世界进行构拟的真实。不同阶段的语言构拟,使新闻在制作、传播和接受的过程中与原始事件的客观真实产生了一定的差距,这是语言构拟的主体(把关人)对上一环节构拟出来的"真实"进行主观过滤的结果,而讲究新闻真实就是要在这一次次的不断的"构拟"中寻求主观与客观的平衡。     

Suicide prevention on college campuses: What works and what are the existing gaps? A systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract

Objective: To examine the effects of universal and targeted suicide prevention programs on relevant outcomes in college campuses. Methods: College suicide prevention programs published from 2009 to 2018 were assessed on outcomes including knowledge, skills, self-efficacy, suicidal ideation, and suicidal behaviors. Effects of the interventions on outcome variables with sufficient studies to warrant meta-analysis (ie, knowledge, skills, and self-efficacy) were meta-analyzed. Studies reporting on the remaining outcomes (ie, suicidal ideation and behaviors) were systematically reviewed. Results: Significant increases in suicide prevention knowledge, skills, and self-efficacy were observed in universal prevention interventions that typically employed gatekeeper prevention strategies. Evidence of reductions in suicidal ideation and behaviors was observed across targeted suicide prevention programs for at-risk students. Conclusion: Prevention programs are beneficial for training those likely to come in contact with people endorsing suicidality, but further research is needed to show that suicide interventions can consistently have significant effects on suicidal students as well.     

做自己的把关人——受众自我把关意识探析

从受众的信息接受心理入手,重新审视被学界长期忽视的受众把关环节。目的不是要将受众把关的能动性盲目扩大化,也并非宣扬媒介无力论,而是希望受众能够意识到对媒介把关过的信息进行再次把关的必要性,并及时消除媒介崇拜,保持对媒体的警戒状态,不盲目信任媒介信息,争做自己的把关人。
