Person-Environment Interaction, Psychological Strain and Delinquency: A Longitudinal Test of the Theory

Gazi-Tabatabaie, Mahmood 01 May 1986 (has links)
Utilizing longitudinal panel data from Youth In Transition Project, the Person-Environment fit (P-E Fit) theory and its specific application to the area of delinquency and aggression was investigated longitudinally. Analysis of Covariance Structure Technique (LISREL) was used to address the issues of multi-dimensionality, stability, measurement of total P-E fit and to test the proposed delinquency model. The relationships between P-E fit, psychological strain, and delinquency were tested both cross-sectionally and longitudinally . The student sub-group (those respondents who stayed in school after high school) and the working sub-group (those who went to work after high school) were tested separately. P-E fit had significant negative effect on both psychological strain and delinquency in most of the cross-sectional models. Similar results were obtained in three of the longitudinal models also . The evidence from longitudinal models tended to support the idea that the causal flow of the relationship between P-E fit, psychological strain and delinquency to be from P-E fit to both psychological strain and delinquency. The longitudinal and cross sectional relationship between P-E fit, psychological strain, and delinquency were more pronounced among the working sub-group than the student sub-group of the sample population. P-E fit tended to be quite stable during the high school years and subject to noticeable change when the transition was made to work or college environments.

Avaliação de quatro aplicações do Teste do Progresso do curso de graduação de Odontologia da Universidade Cidade de São Paulo / Evaluation of four applications of Progress Testing in Dentistry graduation course at University of the City of São Paulo

Assis, Elaine Quedas de 14 September 2010 (has links)
O Teste do Progresso é uma estratégia para avaliação do ganho de conhecimento longitudinal. Foi implementado no curso de Odontologia da Universidade da Cidade de São Paulo (UNICID), com metodologia tradicional de ensino, com os objetivos de avaliar se o ganho de conhecimento dos alunos durante a graduação é contínuo, se existe perda de conhecimento das disciplinas do curso básico ao longo da graduação, e se houve retenção dos conhecimentos na disciplina de Saúde Coletiva. O teste foi aplicado duas vezes por ano, em 2007 e 2008. As provas foram compostas por 85 questões de múltipla escolha, enviadas pelos responsáveis por cada disciplina do curso. O escore médio foi calculado para cada teste por ano letivo e comparado utilizando-se ANOVA, com teste post hoc de Bonferroni. Os resultados sugerem um aumento progressivo do ganho de conhecimento, do primeiro ao quarto ano, em todos os testes (P de tendência <0,0001). A pontuação percentual média no 4° ano variou de 52% a 59%. Não houve perda no ganho cognitivo nas disciplinas básicas ao longo do curso, alcançando percentual médio de 38% a 51% para os alunos do último ano em todos os testes. A média do escore percentual para Saúde Coletiva aumentou de 36% no primeiro ano para 48% no quarto ano. Nossos resultados sugerem um ganho cognitivo progressivo do primeiro ao quarto ano em todos os testes. O Teste do Progresso parece ser uma boa ferramenta de avaliação longitudinal para verificar o ganho de conhecimento em cursos de Odontologia / Progress Testing is a strategy for evaluation of knowledge gain in a longitudinal way. It was implemented at the Dentistry course of University of the City of São Paulo (UNICID), which uses traditional methodology, with the objectives of evaluating if the knowledge gain of students is continuous, if there is loss of knowledge from basic disciplines along the graduation course and if there was a retention of knowledge in public health issues. The test was applied 2 times in the years of 2007 and 2008. The tests consisted in 85 multiple choices questions, sent by the professors in charge of each discipline. Mean percentual score was calculated for each test and graduation year and compared using ANOVA, with a post hoc Bonferroni evaluation test. The results suggest a progressive gain in knowledge from 1st to 4th year, in all tests (P trend <0,0001). The average percent score at 4th year varied from 52% to 59%. There was no loss of cognitive gain at basic disciplines along the course, ranging from 38% to 51% for the students in the last year in all tests. Average percent score for public health subjects raised from 36% in 1st year up to 48% on 4th year. Our results suggest a progressive cognitive gain from first to last (fourth) year in all tests. Progress Testing seems to be a good tool for longitudinal evaluation to verify the knowledge gain in Dentistry graduation courses
