Summary
This study shows that the Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) model effectively enhances student autonomy. Teacher professional development in TPSR strategies improved teaching behaviors, benefiting students in primary and secondary education.
Area of Science:
- Education
- Psychology
- Sports Science
Background:
- The Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) model is a pedagogical framework aimed at fostering students' autonomy and responsibility.
- Continuing professional development is crucial for educators to effectively implement innovative teaching strategies like TPSR.
- Understanding shifts in teacher behavior is key to evaluating the successful integration of TPSR in diverse educational settings.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze the feasibility of the TPSR model in enhancing student autonomy.
- To detect shifts in teachers' behavior-oriented patterns following professional development in TPSR strategies.
- To compare the TPSR implementation by teachers trained in the model versus an expert teacher.
Main Methods:
- A mixed-method approach was employed, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis.
- The Observational System of Teaching Oriented Responsibility (OSTOR) tracked changes in teacher behavior patterns.
- The Tool for Assessing Responsibility-Based Education (TARE 2.0) captured teacher and student perceived behaviors.
- Data analysis included T-pattern detection, polar coordinate analysis, and descriptive/correlational analysis.
Main Results:
- The TPSR model demonstrated feasibility in enhancing student autonomy across primary and secondary school settings.
- Teachers who received TPSR training showed significant positive shifts in their behavior-oriented patterns.
- The TPSR implementation by trained teachers was comparable to that of an expert, indicating successful professional development.
Conclusions:
- Continuing professional development in TPSR strategies effectively enhances teachers' pedagogical behaviors.
- The TPSR model is a viable approach for improving student autonomy and responsibility in educational contexts.
- Mixed-method research provides robust insights into the impact of pedagogical interventions on teaching practices and student outcomes.

01:30Social Cognitive Perspective on Personality
994
Social cognitive perspectives on personality emphasize the importance of conscious awareness, beliefs, expectations, and goals in shaping behavior. These perspectives incorporate behaviorist principles, such as learning through reinforcement and conditioning, but extend beyond them by highlighting human reasoning and planning. Unlike traditional behaviorist views, social cognitive theory focuses on how individuals reflect on their past experiences and plan for future outcomes by considering...

Abraham Maslow, a prominent figure in humanistic psychology, developed a theory centered on self-actualization, which he placed at the top of his hierarchy of needs. According to Maslow, self-actualization represents achieving one's full potential and is a rare accomplishment attained by approximately 2% of the population. Maslow identified notable historical figures such as Thomas Jefferson, Mahatma Gandhi, Helen Keller, and Martin Luther King Jr. as examples of self-actualized...

Social proof is a form of persuasion based on comparison and conformity. People compare their behavior and actions to what others are doing and will change to conform to do what their peers do.

01:37Social Loafing

Another way in which a group presence can affect performance is social loafing—the exertion of less effort by a person working together with a group. Social loafing occurs when our individual performance cannot be evaluated separately from the group. Thus, group performance declines on easy tasks (Karau & Williams, 1993). Essentially individual group members loaf and let other group members pick up the slack. Because each individual’s efforts cannot be evaluated,...

02:10Social Scripts

People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

We have discussed why we form relationships, what attracts us to others, and different types of love. But what determines whether we are satisfied with and stay in a relationship? One theory that provides an explanation is social exchange theory. According to social exchange theory, we act as naïve economists in keeping a tally of the ratio of costs and benefits of forming and maintaining a relationship with others (Rusbult & Van Lange, 2003).
