Trapped between in and out : the post-institutional liminality of ex-prisoners in East Berlin
(2011)
Multiple Imputation hat sich in den letzten Jahren als adäquate Methode zum Umgang mit fehlenden Werten erwiesen und etabliert. Das gilt zumindest für die Theorie, denn im Angesicht mangelnder anwendungsbezogener Erläuterungen und Einführungen verzichten in der Praxis viele Sozialwissenschaftler auf diese notwendige Datenaufbereitung. Trotz (oder vielleicht auch wegen) der stetig fortschreitenden Weiterentwicklung der Programme und Optionen zur Umsetzung Multipler Imputationen, sieht sich der Anwender mit zahlreichen Herausforderungen konfrontiert, für die er mitunter nur schwer Lösungsansätze findet. Die Schwierigkeiten reichen von der Analyse und Aufbereitung der Zielvariablen, über die Software-Entscheidung, die Auswahl der Prädiktoren bis hin zur Modell-Formulierung und Ergebnis-Evaluation. In diesem Beitrag wird die Funktionsweise und Anwendbarkeit Multipler Imputationen skizziert und es wird eine Herangehensweise entwickelt, die sich in der schrittweisen Umsetzung dieser Methode als nützlich erwiesen hat – auch für Einsteiger. Es werden konkrete potenzielle Schwierigkeiten angesprochen und mögliche Problemlösungen diskutiert; vor allem die jeweilige Beschaffenheit der fehlenden Werte steht hierbei im Vordergrund. Der Imputations-Prozess und alle mit ihm verbundenen Arbeitsschritte werden anhand eines Anwendungsbeispiels – der Multiplen Imputation des Gesamtvermögens reicher Haushalte – exemplarisch illustriert.

Recent discussions about violence against women have shifted their attention to specific forms of violence in relation to migration and Islam. In this article, I consider different modes of representing women's experiences in French immigrant communities. These representations relate to the French feminist movement Ni Putes Ni Soumises (neither whore nor submissive), a movement that in the early 2000s deplored both the sustained degradation of certain banlieue neighborhoods and also the charges and restrictions that this entails, particularly for young women. Drawing on different narratives and images of women's painful experience, I consider, in a first step, how the question of representing violence against (post) migrant women is framed in terms of the tension between universality and particularity within French republicanism. In the next part of my argument, I bring into focus the question of how to access women's suffering. For a perspective on pain not as an interiorized, private experience but as an accessible complex of practices, articulations, memories, visions and social reconfigurations, I consider Smain Laacher's sociological study (2008) about written testimonies of violent experience that had been addressed by (post) migrant women to French women organizations such as Ni Putes Ni Soumises. I finally suggest reading women's accounts on violence not in relation to a universal discourse of rights, but as a political contestation of the naturalized order of representing violence, suffering and agency inside French banlieue communities. Drawing on Jacques Ranciere's notion of dissensus, such a contestation can be staged through words by those who have no visibility in the representational order, words not to criticize the unaccomplished ideals of universal equality, but to create a universal community and a common language of experience in the mode of 'as-if'.
Intelligence, as well as working memory and attention, affect the acquisition of mathematical competencies. This paper aimed to examine the influence of working memory and attention when taking different mathematical skills into account as a function of children’s intellectual ability. Overall, intelligence, working memory, attention and numerical skills were assessed twice in 1868 German pre-school children (t1, t2) and again at 2nd grade (t3). We defined three intellectual ability groups based on the results of intellectual assessment at t1 and t2. Group comparisons revealed significant differences between the three intellectual ability groups. Over time, children with low intellectual ability showed the lowest achievement in domain-general and numerical and mathematical skills compared to children of average intellectual ability. The highest achievement on the aforementioned variables was found for children of high intellectual ability. Additionally, path modelling revealed that, depending on the intellectual ability, different models of varying complexity could be generated. These models differed with regard to the relevance of the predictors (t2) and the future mathematical skills (t3). Causes and conclusions of these findings are discussed.

Due to their multifunctionality, tablets offer tremendous advantages for research on handwriting dynamics or for interactive use of learning apps in schools. Further, the widespread use of tablet computers has had a great impact on handwriting in the current generation. But, is it advisable to teach how to write and to assess handwriting in pre- and primary schoolchildren on tablets rather than on paper? Since handwriting is not automatized before the age of 10 years, children's handwriting movements require graphomotor and visual feedback as well as permanent control of movement execution during handwriting. Modifications in writing conditions, for instance the smoother writing surface of a tablet, might influence handwriting performance in general and in particular those of non-automatized beginning writers. In order to investigate how handwriting performance is affected by a difference in friction of the writing surface, we recruited three groups with varying levels of handwriting automaticity: 25 preschoolers, 27 second graders, and 25 adults. We administered three tasks measuring graphomotor abilities, visuomotor abilities, and handwriting performance (only second graders and adults). We evaluated two aspects of handwriting performance: the handwriting quality with a visual score and the handwriting dynamics using online handwriting measures [e.g., writing duration, writing velocity, strokes and number of inversions in velocity (NIV)]. In particular, NIVs which describe the number of velocity peaks during handwriting are directly related to the level of handwriting automaticity. In general, we found differences between writing on paper compared to the tablet. These differences were partly task-dependent. The comparison between tablet and paper revealed a faster writing velocity for all groups and all tasks on the tablet which indicates that all participants—even the experienced writers—were influenced by the lower friction of the tablet surface. Our results for the group-comparison show advancing levels in handwriting automaticity from preschoolers to second graders to adults, which confirms that our method depicts handwriting performance in groups with varying degrees of handwriting automaticity. We conclude that the smoother tablet surface requires additional control of handwriting movements and therefore might present an additional challenge for learners of handwriting.

Die Kooperation von Schule und Jugendhilfe befindet sich aktuell im Wandel. Spätestens seit Beginn der 2000er-Jahre wird insbesondere von Seiten der Politik eine verstärkte Zusammenarbeit beider Institutionen gefordert. Die PISA-Studie des Jahres 2000 verdeutlichte die Chancenungleichheit unseres Bildungssystems und sorgte damit für eine Renaissance der Thematik. Zuletzt führten die Inklusionsdebatte und die Flüchtlingsströme, die Europa seit 2015 erreichen, sowie daraus folgende rechtspopulistische Tendenzen in Deutschland verstärkt zur Notwendigkeit, die Bildungswelten Jugendhilfe und Schule stärker zu vernetzen. Junge Menschen unterschiedlichster Personengruppen sollen besser ins Bildungssystem integriert und demokratiefeindlichem Gedankengut entgegengewirkt werden.
Die Zusammenarbeit von Jugendhilfe und Schule ist somit aktuell stärker gefragt denn je. Sie gilt als komplexe Problemlösestrategie und wird mit einer Vielzahl positiver Erwartungen assoziiert. Sie soll auf bildungs- und sozialpolitische Fragen Antwort geben, den demokratischen Gedanken stärken und junge Menschen auf rasche technische und mediale Veränderungen im Arbeitsalltag vorbereiten. In der Theorie wird die Zusammenarbeit von Jugendhilfe und Schule als Allheilmittel angepriesen, doch wie gestaltet sich die Praxis?
Diese Studie geht dieser Frage nach, indem sie exemplarisch die Kooperation an der Bildungsstätte „Kurt Löwenstein“ im brandenburgischen Werneuchen aus der Sicht von Lehrkräften untersucht. Die Autorin wertet Leitfadeninterviews systematisch aus und kommt dabei zu überraschenden Ergebnissen. Die Studie legt Erfolgsfaktoren und Hemmnisse der Kooperation dar und liefert eine kritische und differenzierte Analyse des Ist-Zustandes.

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.
