Propiedades psicométricas de la escala de afrontamiento ante la ansiedad e incertidumbre pre-examen en universitarios chilenos
Get PDFThe present instrumental study aimed to describe the psychometric properties of the Coping with Pre-Exam Anxiety and Uncertainty Scale (COPEAU-A) in Chilean university students. 230 first-year students from a university in the north of Chile participated, where 67,4% were women and 32.6% men, with an average age of 18,9 years. By confirmatory factor analysis, using a robust weighted least squares method (WLSMV), five models were compared, finding the best fit indicators in the composite of four oblique factors with 20 ítems (X2=228,795, gl=164, p<,01; X2/gl=1,395; TLI=,929; CFI=,939; RMSEA=,042). The reliability of the four factors was adequate, showing McDonald's Omega coefficients between ω=,716 and ω=,873. In turn, the results showed the factorial invariance of the instrument according to sex. It is concluded that the psychometric properties of COPEAU-A would support its use to evaluate coping strategies in the face of anxiety and pre-exam uncertainty in Chilean university students who are beginning their academic careers.El presente estudio de tipo instrumental tuvo como objetivo describir las propiedades psicométricas de la Escala de Afrontamiento ante la Ansiedad e Incertidumbre Pre-Examen (COPEAU-A) en universitarios chilenos. Participaron 230 estudiantes de una universidad del norte de Chile, los cuales cursaban el primer año, donde un 67,4% eran mujeres y un 32,6% hombres, con un promedio de edad de 18,9 años. Mediante análisis factorial confirmatorio, usando un método de mínimos cuadrados ponderados robusto (WLSMV), se compararon cinco modelos, encontrándose los mejores indicadores de ajuste en el compuesto por cuatro factores oblicuos con 20 ítems (X2=228,795, gl=164, p<,01; X2/gl= 1,395; TLI=,929; CFI=,939; RMSEA=,042). La confiabilidad de los cuatro factores fue adecuada, mostrando coeficientes Omega de McDonald entre ω=,716 y ω=,873. A su vez, los resultados evidenciaron la invarianza factorial del instrumento según sexo. Se concluye que las propiedades psicométricas del COPEAU-A apoyarían su uso para evaluar las estrategias de afrontamiento ante la ansiedad y la incertidumbre pre-examen en estudiantes chilenos que están iniciando sus carreras académicas en la universidad.
Diseño y presencia de actividades sobre educación financiera en los textos españoles de educación primaria
Get PDFThe purpose of this work is to analyze the activities related to Financial Education in the textbooks used in Primary Education, both in public and subsidized schools in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia, considering the OECD definition for financial competence. Through a qualitative methodological process, based on content analysis, an entire textbooks' series was studied for the subject of mathematics. The outcome showed the existence of 252 activities that agree with the Financial Education proposed model, highlighting the categories of money's value (145 activities) and state and citizens (133) with the greatest presence and, therefore, with the greatest development. According to this, we consider that a good culture in financial education in an early schooling facilitates the various economic decisions faced by students insituations of economic uncertainty.El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar las actividades relacionadas con educación financiera en libros de textos de Educación Primaria utilizados en colegios concertados y públicos de la Comunidad Autónoma de Andalucía, considerando la definición de la OCDE para la competencia financiera. A través de un proceso metodológico cualitativo, basado en el análisis de contenido, se estudió una serie completa de libros de texto para la asignatura de matemática. Los resultados muestran la existencia de 252 actividades que concuerdan con el modelo de Educación Financiera propuesto, destacando las categorías del valor del dinero (145 actividades) y estado y ciudadanos (133) con mayor presencia y, por tanto, mayor desarrollo de estas mismas de esta forma consideramos que una buena cultura en educación financiera a menor escolaridad facilitara las diversas decisiones económicas que enfrentarán los estudiantes en situaciones de incertidumbre económica
In-Class versus Out-of-Class Flipped Classroom Models in English as a Foreign Language Writing
Get PDFA flipped classroom model is an indispensable part of the English as a foreign language (EFL) writing courses as it helps the instructor to advance the learners’ writing proficiency levels (Pavanelli, 2018). However, EFL students’ attitudes toward the in-class and out-of-class writing models in a flipped classroom process are unknown. Understanding these issues have a vital importance as these will help educators arrange their writing classes based on the flipped classroom models in order to have an effective writing course in line with EFL students’ needs (Abaeian & Samadi, 2016). Therefore, this study purposed to investigate the EFL students’ attitudes toward in-class and out-of-class writing models in a flipped classroom. A quantitative research design was employed through the use of a questionnaire which was employed to 30 EFL students studying at a private university’s English language teaching department. As the findings showed, although the EFL students had positive attitudes towards both flipped classroom models for writing, they preferred the out-of-class model and the majority of them stated that they prefer to produce their written work out-of-class settings. As a consequence of these, EFL educators should use an out-of-class flipped classroom model for writing, if they give priority to their EFL students’ attitudes towards the writing models on account of having an effective writing course

A Comparative Study of the Nature of Ransom and Wise from the Perspective of Feyz Kashani and Imam Khomeini
Get PDFThe nature of ransom and the issue of guaranteeing wisdom is one of the important issues in jurisprudence and law; various views have been expressed about it so far. The connection between the two goes back to the nature of ransom; if we consider ransom as a mere punishment, it is in conflict with the principle of personal punishment but if we consider the ransom as compensation, or consider it dual in nature, there will be no conflict between this rule and the principle. In this article, an attempt has been made to the nature of ransom and wisdom should be examined from the perspective of Feyz Kashani and Imam Khomeini, the basic question that arises in this regard is that; how can the views of Feyz Kashani and Imam Khomeini regarding the nature of ransom and wisdom be evaluated? The present article is an analytical description and has used the library method to examine the question. The results of the article indicate that; from the point of view of Feyz Kashani and also Imam Khomeini, ransom has a dual nature; because ransom, as an independent legal entity, has a civil aspect and compensates the damages and losses inflicted on the victim or his parents, on the other hand, it has a criminal aspect and provides the means of punishment and learning lessons for the perpetrator. Also, the payment made by the wise has been accepted from the point of view of Feyz Kashani and Imam Khomeini. Accordingly, whenever a non-Muslim citizen from Dhimma commits a pure mistake and is unable to pay the ransom, whenever a murderer commits premeditated murder and then escapes and he and his relatives have no money, whenever the person who committed the murder of a pure mistake does not have the wisdom of paying the wise ransom, or if his wisdom is incapable, the payment of ransom will be the responsibility of the treasury. From Imam Khomeini's point of view, the most important basis of the government's responsibility as a wise man is the rule of "Al-Kharaj bi Al-Dhiman" but Feyz Kashani has not discussed this issue

Teaching russian phraseology with the component of color term “black” to philology foreign students
Get PDFThe study of phraseology is an advanced direction of teaching methods of Russian as a foreign language. Any non-native speaker embarking on a study of Russian is faced with the problems of understanding the phraseological units that the Russian language is replete with. Language learners experience particular difficulties when using phraseological units with the color designation component “black” in a real-life communicative situation. The problem of understanding the phraseology of the Russian language is associated with the fact that representatives of different countries have knowledge of the phraseology of their native language that encompasses regional geography, linguoculturological, national concepts, which often do not coincide with similar phenomena in the Russian environment. This paper scientifically substantiates the methodological system for working with phraseological units in the study of Russian as a foreign language. It presents a system of scientifically grounded assignments for foreigners to learn Russian as a foreign language
