Der Beitrag untersucht, ob und zu welchen Anteilen frühe sprachliche Kompetenzen numerische Kompetenzen vorhersagen. An 72 dreijährigen Kindern wurden numerische, verbal produktive und rezeptive sowie grammatische Leistungen zwei Mal im Abstand von drei Monaten erhoben. Mithilfe von Strukturgleichungsmodellen kann gezeigt werden, dass sprachliche und numerische Leistungen in diesem Alter noch wenig distinkt sind. Für die numerischen Kompetenzen findet sich bereits in diesem Alter eine hohe interindividuelle Entwicklungsstabilität. Ein bedeutsamer Einfluss sprachlicher Kompetenz auf den Zuwachs mathematischer Kompetenz im vierten Lebensjahr konnte nicht nachgewiesen werden. Wir diskutieren die Ergebnisse vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Thesen zum Zusammenhang von Sprache und Numerik in der Entwicklung.
Peer cultural socialisation
(2019)
This study investigated how peers can contribute to cultural minority students’ cultural identity, life satisfaction, and school values (school importance, utility, and intrinsic values) by talking about cultural values, beliefs, and behaviours associated with heritage and mainstream culture (peer cultural socialisation). We further distinguished between heritage and mainstream identity as two separate dimensions of cultural identity. Analyses were based on self-reports of 662 students of the first, second, and third migrant generation in Germany (Mean age = 14.75 years, 51% female). Path analyses revealed that talking about heritage culture with friends was positively related to heritage identity. Talking about mainstream culture with friends was negatively associated with heritage identity, but positively with mainstream identity as well as school values. Both dimensions of cultural identity related to higher life satisfaction and more positive school values. As expected, heritage and mainstream identity mediated the link between peer cultural socialisation and adjustment outcomes. Findings highlight the potential of peers as socialisation agents to help promote cultural belonging as well as positive adjustment of cultural minority youth in the school context.
Who is "German" and who is a "migrant?" Constructing Otherness in education and psychology research
(2019)
Despite growing European and global interconnectedness, questions of national identity have only gained in importance in recent years. Yet the role researchers play in perpetuating norms of national belonging has gone largely unexamined. Who is included in unmarked national group labels such as German, Dutch, or Danish, who is understood as Other, and how terminology relates to exclusionary notions of national identity warrants greater investigation. Thus, using an exploratory review of recent research in the German context, the current study aimed to (a) identify relevant terminology in empirical education and psychology studies; (b) employ constructionist analysis to examine its situated meaning; (c) discuss societal and methodological implications; and (d) propose guidelines for more accurate and inclusive research. Based on a constructionist thematic analysis, a reiteration of a white ingroup and perceived immigrant Other was found. This dichotomy reinforces an exclusionary notion of who is German while omitting relevant information, such as participant generation or citizenship, from analyses. In doing so, researchers are perpetuating essentialized notions of national belonging while reporting incomplete and potentially inaccurate findings. Though selecting demographic information can be complex, recognizing the impact of labels and acknowledging heterogeneity are essential elements of inclusive and representative research.
