EFFECT OF SELF-CONTROL MODEL ON SELF-CONTROL AND PHYSICAL ABILITIES OF JUNIOR SCHOOL LEARNERS AT THE AGE OF 10-11: CHILDREN’S REFLECTIONS

The ultimate aim of self-control is to focus attention on physical, spiritual, and social health. Self-control abilities facilitate the improvement of mental balance and mental health, assist the development of academic skills and knowledge, and shape inner harmony of a child. Physical education at a junior school age is one of the underused possibilities for the development of self-control abilities. J. Liukkonen (2007), B. Zimmerman, A. Kitsantas (2005) claim that use of the self-control strategy during physical education classes allows a person to control emotions and effectively improve one‘s physical abilities. Research aim – to reveal the effect of self-control model on self-control and physical abilities of junior school learners at the age of 10–11. Research methods: literature review, pedagogical experiment, qualitative content analysis. Analysis of research results is based on a pedagogical experiment conducted during 2011–2012 with IV grade learners of general education schools in Klaipeda, Kaunas and Raseiniai (Lithuania) cities. Qualitative research had a sample of 24 experimental group learners. The fundamental manifest and latent content meaning and defined data categories attest to the positive dynamics of the following self-control abilities: ability to assess the parameters of physical fitness, ability to understand one’s physical activity, ability to apply different self-control strategies, ability to apply psychosocial self-control abilities in practice, motivation for improving one‘s physical abilities, and satisfaction due to emotional and behavioral self-control. KEYWORDS: self-control, physical education, junior school learners.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15181/atee.v1i0.66

L’évaluation au CNRS

Evaluation at CNRS Our sociological investigation of four national committee’s sections (term of office 1987-1991) in physics and biology and of the direction under François Kourilsky’s management shows how the representative authorities are mobilized by the actors in the subtle exercise of scientists government. It offers insights into the articulation between disciplinary logic and organizational logic. Located at the intersection of these two spheres, the commissions enable to decode the peers’ judgment with an interactionnist approach. Their members have judgment autonomy without, however, being released from cognitive and organizational constraints. Some elements of the situation are imposed on them ; they work under pressure, giving their advisory opinions to a decision-making hierarchy who possesses its own objectives and controls the resources allocation ; confronted with credibility obligations, they show concern for objective judgments, disclosing this way the difficulties of a demanding intellectual activity and of a delicate institutional position. Then we bring out several conceptions of scientific merit and research management, as well as roles differently invested according to the participants and the situation. Two typical patterns of decision, elitism and equity, are proposed in a contrasting way. Different facets of the representative role that each member may assume alternately are superimposed on these non fixed attitudes. Then we identify the mechanisms through which the preferences of the commissioners, who are required to come to an agreement in a limited time, are formed, evolve and aggregate : deliberation and decision-making rules, guided by the commission’s president and board, allow them to discover and to put together evaluation attitudes and constraints into collective choices. So we can think about the virtues and limits of the two observed procedures, by consensus or by votes, that contribute with other variables to draw commission styles. If there are close interactions between the representative and executive spheres, the way of governing the CNRS can be modified with some innovations that senior staff members introduce concerning evaluation

Sakharov Science morale et politique

Comment un brillant physicien soviétique, choyé par le régime pour son rôle clé dans l'élaboration de la bombe à hydrogène de son pays, est-il devenu un symbole de la cause des droits de l'homme ? Face aux sanctions que sa lutte valut à Andreï Sakharov, Prix Nobel de la paix 1975, quelles furent les attitudes des scientifiques occidentaux, notamment américains, français et britanniques ?

Relativistic multireference many-body perturbation theory calculations on F-, Ne-, Na-, Mg-, Al-, Si-, and P-like xenon ions

Many-Body Perturbation Theory (MBPT) has been employed to calculate with high wavelength accuracy the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectra of F-like to P-like Xe ions. They discuss the reliability of the new calculations using the example of EUV beam-foil spectra of Xe, in which n = 3, {Delta}n = 0 transitions of Na-, Mg-, Al-like, and Si-like ions have been found to dominate. A further comparison is made with spectra from an electron beam ion trap, that is, from a device with a very different (low density) excitation balance
