The Problems and Countermeasures of Implementing Educational Discipline for Rural Teachers

Educational discipline has received widespread attention in both practical and academic fields in recent years. By using the event sampling observation, multiple incidents of teacher education discipline were collected in a rural primary school in C County, H Province of China within one semester. Through analysis, the educational discipline in the school included three kinds: verbal discipline, behavioral discipline, and psychological discipline. Through interviews with relevant teachers and students, it was found that teachers have an insufficient understanding of relevant regulations, an inaccurate understanding of the connotation of educational discipline, a fear of using educational discipline, and an unclear basis for educational discipline when implementing it. The main reasons include that the school’s promotion of educational discipline policies is not sufficient, teachers lack active learning of relevant laws and regulations, some parents have misunderstandings about the implementation of educational discipline for teachers, and social public opinion has also had a negative impact. It suggests that schools should strengthen training and improve management systems, while teachers should strengthen learning and enhance cooperation in educating students. In addition, parents should enhance their identification and share the responsibility of educating children, and society should optimize the environment and enhance social awareness.

In Defense of the History of Psychology

The main purpose is to provide a defense of the history of psychology at a global (worldwide); however, it is important to consider that this defense arises from Latin America. Given that this panorama is mostly unknown to a large part of psychologists, this article presents itself as an explicit action to foster this discipline by addressing three main issues. Firstly, present some milestones in the journey of the history of psychology at the global with an emphasis on Latin America. Secondly, present a series of critical reflections on the current relevance of this area within the field of psychology. Finally, establish a position in 10 sentences that acts as a defense of the importance of the history of psychology for the psychological discipline on various levels. While the majority of the content presented here is commonly recognized among individuals professionally immersed in historical research within the realm of psychology, it possesses a diminished level of accessibility for students and psychologists not specializing in historical matters. The aim here is not to convince those who are already convinced, but to have an impact beyond the community of specialists that, synergistically, can affect the vast field of psychology in general.

Editorial: Social transformations and inequalities in Ibero-America. Challenges for Psychology and Public Policies

In recent decades, Ibero-America has undergone profound sociocultural, political, and economic changes, exacerbating social inequalities and affecting individual and collective well-being, particularly among vulnerable groups, a situation aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic. This editorial analyzes these changes and their impact on mental health, highlighting the need for inclusive and effective public policies. The articles in this journal issue use qualitative and quantitative methods to address various phenomena in the Chilean and Brazilian contexts. The studies conclude that integrating the psychological discipline into public policies is crucial to advancing toward fairer and healthier societies. This means developing evidence-based policies adapted to local contexts that promote psychological well-being and social equity. In other words, reducing inequality gaps in Ibero-America requires close collaboration between psychology and public policy, using a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to improve the well-being and mental health of the population.

Rethinking big P: Integrating personal and academic psychology knowledge in university teaching

Looking at how people get oriented towards the psychological discipline, it is striking that students are often initially drawn to psychology because they wish better to understand their personal experiences and the world around them. However, these initial aspirations often remain unmet by the content of academic psychology classes and the teachers conveying it. Building on my experiences as a psychology lecturer, I explore the challenges of connecting personal experiences to psychological content in academic practice for students and teachers and how this can be traced back to the ongoing contested nature of psychology’s subject matter. In doing so, I mainly draw on the distinction between ‘big P’ academic psychology knowledge and ‘small p’ everyday psychology knowledge to explain the current conditions and discursive dynamics in psychology classrooms. I then turn to insights from other disciplines concerned with facilitating academic teaching experiences integrating personal engagement and everyday experience to explore how the role of psychology instructors can be redefined and expanded in the future. Given that university classrooms play a pivotal role in shaping students’ professional identity and perception of the discipline, I advocate for acknowledging and utilizing the personal relevance of seminar contents to bridge the gap between ‘big P’ and ‘small p’ psychology in academic teaching.

"At Least Somebody Sees You as a Hero": Fatherhood Stress and Well-Being in Ghana.

Fathers' mental health and behaviors influence child development and partner well-being, yet paternal stress and well-being are frequently overlooked; especially in non-Western settings. The aim of this mixed-methods study was to quantitatively assess the impact of parenting stress on fathers' overall well-being in Ghana, West Africa; while qualitatively delving into their lived experiences as fathers. We used a qual/quant mixed-methods approach in this study. The study was conducted in three distinct locations in Ghana (a) Ada, a rural community on the Southeastern coast; (b) Kumasi, an urban setting in upper Southern Ghana; and (c) Sunyani, a peri-urban setting in West-central Ghana. Paternal stress was measured with the Aggravation in Parenting Scale (APS) and well-being was assessed using the Secure Flourishing Index (SFI). Textual data from focus group interviews were sorted using inductive coding and aggregated into overarching themes. Thirty-eight Ghanaian fathers ages 21 to 74 years participated in the study, average age 43 (±12.12 SD), median 39.5. Correlation analyses showed a strong, negative association between paternal stress and well-being (R = -0.63; p < .0001), which was supported in linear regression models (β = -1.04; 95% CI: -1.62, -0.45; p<.0001). Emergent themes of fatherhood stress included financial (employment, food, education, and health care), social (norms and expectations), and psychological (mental work, discipline, relationships, and coping strategies) stressors. A fourth overarching theme of pride and joy in parenting permeated the interviews. Ghanaian fathers with higher parenting stress experience lower overall well-being. Identified stressors could guide interventions that bolster the well-being of fathers and their families.

Learning Interest and Discipline on Learning Motivation

In the education process, almost all skills, knowledge, habits, and attitudes are developed through the learning process. Achieving good learning outcomes involves several components, such as interests, talents, good psychological factors, abilities, motivation, attitudes, maturity, discipline, and others. This study aims to determine the influence of learning interest and discipline on learning motivation. The population was university students, and the sample of the study was all students who took the basic course of curriculum development in 2019-2020, totaling 38 students. Data analysis was performed to describe the condition of each research variable learning interest, discipline, and learning motivation. Data were then analyzed by ANOVA with SPSS Program Version 16. In this study, we found that interest in learning and discipline significantly influenced learning motivation. This relation can be seen in the value of the ANOVA analysis was statistically significant (p 0.05). Interest in learning influences learning motivation, and this also applies to disciplines that have a strong influence on student motivation. Thus, student learning motivation can be increased by high effort and attention in increasing and developing student interest and discipline. The interest in learning and discipline has a positive influence on learning motivation. Learning motivation is not only influenced by interest and discipline but in this study, it is only limited to interest and discipline, which affect students' learning motivation. Other researchers can do related research talents, good psychological factors, abilities, or attitudes.

Based on this, this paper carries out the research method of convolutional neural network by using the research concept of deep learning. Firstly, the paper summarizes the fast intelligent analysis model based on the convolutional neural network system algorithm, classifies and summarizes the unique characteristics of college students’ mental health, and uses the convolutional neural network processing model to analyze, evaluate, and observe college students’ mental health combined with the big data theory. Secondly, through the expansion and utilization of multi‐layer neuron self‐coding neural network, the psychological health of college students is evaluated and analyzed in the psychological discipline, the discrete data structure is established by using the relevant psychological data, the psychological behavior of college students is analyzed, summarized, and classified, and the data model is filled to judge the mental health status of college students. Finally, through the design of confirmatory experiments, the results show that the college students’ mental health evaluation and analysis model based on deep learning is more efficient in individual data analysis. Compared with the mode of analyzing college students’ mental health through in‐depth learning, the traditional psychological research method has a large workload and is not suitable for the universality and consistency of college students. This paper solves this problem and provides a reference for relevant research.

Latin American Scientific Production on Burnout in Scopus, 2010 - 2020

This research aimed to characterize the Latin American scientific literature production on burnout between 2010 and 2020. A descriptive study was carried out with Latin American publications in journals indexed in the Scopus database as the unit of analysis. The variables studied were document frequency, scientific production by country, number of authors, institutional affiliation and scientific production by descriptor on burnout. The documentary type that appears the most is research papers with 85.03%. Out of a total of 154 authors affiliated to 163 Latin American institutions, the trend of scientific production by country shows that Brazil leads with 52.51% of the production in Latin America. The journals with the largest production were Revista da Escola de Enfermagem (n= 8), Revista Brasileira de Medicina do Trabalho and Revista Latino Americana de Enfermagem, with 22 documents each. Scientific production studies on an area of knowledge guide the research work. Thus, knowing what publications have been made on burnout will allow us to establish a Latin American research policy that will benefit the psychological discipline. However, it is necessary to increase the number of studies on burnout in Latin America in order to consolidate authorship collaboration and the literature on the subject.&#x0D; &#x0D; Received: 2 August 2021 / Accepted: 3 October 2021 / Published: 5 November 2021

“Gender Dysphoria”: Therapist Negotiations of Oppressive Practices

It has long been demonstrated that psychological and psychiatric fields pathologise and discipline certain bodies. However, few have explored practitioners’ resistance to, and critiques of, gender oppressive practices. Drawing from theoretical frameworks of transgender studies and queer theory, this paper reports on qualitative data gathered from semi-structured interviews with six therapists in Sydney, Australia. Case studies highlight the ruptures, dissonances, and possibilities of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) mental health care in practice. Thematic analysis of therapist case studies demonstrates how notions of “allyship” are inadequate in problematising power dynamics, binary gender, and cisgenderism, as therapists engaged in problematic discourses and practices in relation to their TGD clients. Exploring the limitations of traditional gatekeeping models, the paper situates counselling and psychotherapy practices within an Australian context as holding unique opportunities to engage in anti-oppressive practice with TGD clients. The research makes clear that active frameworks for challenging oppression in the lives of clients are essential to ethical, client-centred work.
