Marcus on Belief and Belief in the Impossible
No full textI review but don’t endorse Marcus’ arguments that impossible beliefs are impossible. I defend her claim that belief’s objects are, in some important sense, not the bearers of truth and falsity, discuss her dispositionalism about belief, and argue it’s a good fit with the idea that belief’s objects are Russellian states of affairs.
Reviso, pero no suscribo, los argumentos de Marcus a favor de que las creencias imposibles son imposibles.
Defiendo su tesis de que los objetos de las creencias no son, en algún sentido importante, los soportes
de la verdad y la falsedad; discuto su disposicionalismo acerca de las creencias y argumento que encaja bien
con la idea de que los objetos de las creencias son estados de cosas russellianos
Erfassung des Selbstkonzepts im mittleren Kindesalter: Validierung einer deutschen Version des SDQ I
No full text Zusammenfassung. Der Self-Description Questionnaire I (SDQ I; Marsh, 1990b ) gehört zu den am ausführlichsten empirisch evaluierten Verfahren zur Erfassung eines multidimensionalen Selbstkonzepts im mittleren Kindesalter. Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt eine deutschsprachige Version dieses Instruments vor. Die psychometrischen Eigenschaften des deutschen SDQ I wurden an N = 589 Schülern der Klassenstufen drei bis sechs untersucht. Es zeigte sich, dass sich die Mehrheit der Skalen des vorgestellten Verfahrens zur reliablen und validen Erfassung eines inhaltlich ausdifferenzierten Selbstkonzepts bei Kindern eignet. Validitätseinschränkungen ergaben sich hingegen für das über Selbsteinschätzungen zum Lesen erfasst verbale Selbstkonzept, das nicht deutlicher mit der Deutschnote korrelierte (r = .32) als das akademische Selbstkonzept für verschiedene Schulfächer (r = .38). Außerdem sprachen die Befunde dafür, dass beim akademischen Selbstkonzept neben einem verbalen und mathematischen Bereich auch zwischen einem Kompetenz- und Affektbereich zu unterscheiden ist. Damit liefert die hier vorgestellte deutsche Version des SDQ I wichtige Erkenntnisse über die multidimensionale Selbstkonzeptstruktur in der mittleren Kindheit. </jats:p
