T1 - Acculturation and School Adjustment of Immigrant Youth in Six European Countries BT - Findings from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) JF - Frontiers in psychology N2 - School adjustment determines long-term adjustment in society. Yet, immigrant youth do better in some countries than in others. Drawing on acculturation research (Berry, 1997; Ward, 2001) and self-determination theory (Ryan and Deci, 2000), we investigated indirect effects of adolescent immigrants’ acculturation orientations on school adjustment (school-related attitudes, truancy, and mathematics achievement) through school belonging. Analyses were based on data from the Programme for International Student Assessment from six European countries, which were combined into three clusters based on their migrant integration and multicultural policies: Those with the most supportive policies (Belgium and Finland), those with moderately supportive policies (Italy and Portugal), and those with the most unsupportive policies (Denmark and Slovenia). In a multigroup path model, we confirmed most associations. As expected, mainstream orientation predicted higher belonging and better outcomes in all clusters, whereas the added value of students’ ethnic orientation was only observed in some clusters. Results are discussed in terms of differences in acculturative climate and policies between countries of settlement.

Im Zentrum stehen praxisrelevante Anregungen für die Unterrichtsgestaltung für den Anfangsunterricht in den Klassenstufen 1 und 2 sowie für die Klassenstufen 3 und 4. Neben den gründlich erprobten Unterrichtsanregungen werden exemplarisch auch fachliche Aspekte erörtert, da viele Kolleginnen und Kollegen in den Grundschulen Sachunterricht fachfremd unterrichten müssen. Diese sind so ausgewählt worden, dass sie neben der fachlichen Fundierung der behandelten Themen auch für die fachliche Vorbereitung auf den darüber hinausgehenden, auf die naturwissenschaftliche Perspektive bezogenen Sachunterricht genutzt werden können.

The study extends previous knowledge that showed that support for motivational support in class is related to students’ intrinsic motivation as it focused on the developmental changes of a set of different motivational variables and the relations of these changes to student-perceived motivational support in class. Thus, differential classroom effects on students’ motivational development were investigated. A sample of 1088 German students was assessed in the beginning of the school year when students were in grade 8 (Mean age D 13.70, SD D 0.53, 54% girls) and again at the end of the next school year when students were in grade 9. Results of latent change models showed a tendency toward decline in mastery goal orientation and a significant decrease in academic effort from grade 8 to 9. Intrinsic motivation did not decrease significantly across time. Student-perceived support of competence in class predicted the level and change in students’ academic effort. The findings emphasized that it is beneficial to create classroom learning environments that enhance students’ perceptions of competence in class when aiming to enhance students’ academic effort in secondary school classrooms.

BT - Zum Zusammenhang zwischen sonderpädagogischem Förderbedarf und sozialer Partizipation von Grundschülerinnen und Grundschülern BT - Primary school children with special educational needs and their social participation JF - Zeitschrift für pädagogische Psychologie N2 - In der vorliegenden Studie wurde das Ausmaß der sozialen Partizipation von Grundschülerinnen und Grundschülern mit einem und ohne festgestelltem sonderpädagogischem Förderbedarf (SPF) untersucht. Insgesamt wurden N = 1436 Schüler der 2. und 3. Jahrgangsstufe mittels Fragebögen zum peerbezogenen Klassenklima, zur Einschätzung der eigenen sozialen Integration, zum Gefühl des Angenommen-Seins durch die Lehrkraft und zur Anzahl ihrer Freundschaften befragt. Mithilfe des Propensity Score Matching-Verfahrens wurden den Schülern mit einem festgestellten SPF in den Bereichen Lernen, emotionale und soziale Entwicklung oder Sprache (N = 91) basierend auf theoretisch und empirisch abgeleiteten Hintergrundvariablen statistische Zwillinge ohne SPF zugeordnet. Zu den Hintergrundvariablen zählten familiäre, leistungs- und verhaltensbezogene Merkmale. Der Vergleich der Schüler mit einem festgestellten SPF mit ihren statistischen Zwillingen ohne SPF lieferte keine Hinweise auf einen Zusammenhang zwischen dem Status eines SPF und der sozialen Partizipation. N2 - The present study examines whether students with and without a special educational needs statement (SEN) differ in their social participation. Data analysis was based on a sample of N = 1436 students in second- and third-grade primary-school classes. Using standardized questionnaires we assessed peer-related classroom climate, self-perceived social integration, number of friends, and feeling of acceptance by the students’ teachers. Propensity score matching was applied to control for differences between students with a SEN statement (N = 91) indicating difficulties in learning, language, or emotional and social development. Controlling for family background, academic achievement, and behavioral aspects revealed no differences in social participation.
