Indigenous and Cultural Psychology
Indigenous psychology is an emerging new field in psychology, focusing on psychological universals in social, cultural, and ecological contexts - Starting point for psychologists who wish to understand various cultures from their own ecological, historial, philosophical, and religious perspectives
Theory and Language Acquisition
As a usage-based language theory, cognitive linguistics is predestined to have an impact on applied research in such areas as language in society, ideology, language acquisition, language pedagogy. The present volumes are a first systematic attempt to carve out pathways from the links between language and cognition to the fields of language acquisition and language pedagogy and to deal with them in one coherent framework: applied cognitive linguistics.
The Village Effect
Marrying the findings of the new field of social neuroscience together with gripping human stories, award-winning author and psychologist Susan Pinker explores the impact of face-to-face contact from cradle to grave, from city to Sardinian mountain village, from classroom to workplace, from love to marriage to divorce. Her results are enlightening and enlivening, and they challenge our assumptions. Most of us have left the literal village behind, and don't want to give up our new technologies to go back there. But, as Pinker writes so compellingly, we need close social bonds and uninterrupted face-time with our friends and families in order to thrive - even to survive. Creating our own 'village effect' can make us happier. It can also save our lives.
Pragmatic Development
The pragmatic system consists of the rules for appropriate and communicatively-effective language use. This book provides an integrated view of the acquisition of the various pragmatic subsystems, including expression of communicative intents, participation in conversation, and production of extended discourse. The three components of the pragmatic system are presented in a way that makes clear how they relate to each other and why they all fall under the rubric of "pragmatics". The authors combine their own extensive work in these three domains with an overview of the field of pragmatic development, describing how linguistic pragmatics relates to other aspects of language development, to social development, and to becoming a member of one's culture.
Nordisk utdanningsforskning
Undersøgelsen fastslår, at det nordiske uddannelsesforskningsfelt kendetegnes af et stort mangefold både i disciplintilknytning og perspektiver, i forskningsfokus og forskningsmetodik, publicering og formidling. Forfatterne mener, at denne situation bidrager til, at feltet uddannelsesforskning kan være vanskelig at definere præcist og dermed afgrænse. Rapporten synliggør imidlertid, at en større grad af samarbejde og øget koordinering på feltet, kan give en nordisk merværdi på en række områder. Hovedformålet med studiet er, at undersøge mulighederne for et nordisk uddannelsesforsknings- og formidlingsinitiativ gennem en kortlægning af igangværende og planlagte uddannelsesforskningsinitiativer i de nordiske lande og selvstyrende områder, samt indhente synspunkter om hvilke felter og i hvilken form et eventuelt nordisk initiativ kan være hensigtsmæssigt. Studiet er udarbejdet for Nordisk Ministerråd af Norsk Institutt for studier av innovasjon, forskning og utdanning, NIFU STEP i samarbejde med Technopolis.
