Resumen
La flexibilidad cognitiva mejora la adaptación de los estudiantes internacionales al impulsar la autoeficacia y el apoyo social. Sin embargo, las estancias más largas disminuyen la vía de apoyo social
Área de la Ciencia:
- Psicología
- Sociología
- Estudios de educación superior
Sus antecedentes:
- La adaptación sociocultural es vital para el éxito de los estudiantes internacionales en la educación superior global.
- La comprensión de los mecanismos psicológicos subyacentes a la adaptación es crucial para desarrollar estrategias de apoyo eficaces.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Investigar cómo la flexibilidad cognitiva influye en la adaptación sociocultural en los estudiantes internacionales.
- Examinar las funciones mediadoras paralelas de la autoeficacia y el apoyo social percibido.
- Explorar el efecto moderador de la duración de la residencia en estas vías.
Principales métodos:
- Diseño de la encuesta transversal con 207 estudiantes internacionales en el este de China.
- Cuestionarios validados que miden la flexibilidad cognitiva, la adaptación sociocultural, la autoeficacia y el apoyo social.
- Modelado de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM) para analizar efectos de mediación y moderación.
Principales resultados:
- La flexibilidad cognitiva tiene un impacto significativo en la adaptación sociocultural indirectamente a través de la autoeficacia y el apoyo social percibido.
- El efecto directo de la flexibilidad cognitiva en la adaptación no fue significativo.
- La duración de la residencia moderó el camino entre la flexibilidad cognitiva y el apoyo social percibido, debilitándolo con el tiempo.
Conclusiones:
- La flexibilidad cognitiva es un factor clave que promueve la adaptación sociocultural de los estudiantes internacionales mediante la autoeficacia y el apoyo social.
- La influencia de la flexibilidad cognitiva en el apoyo social disminuye con los períodos de residencia más largos.
- Las universidades deben fomentar la flexibilidad cognitiva y el desarrollo de la autoeficacia a lo largo de los viajes académicos de los estudiantes para mejorar la adaptación intercultural.

Language and Cognition
438
Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.

Cognitive Dissonance

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

For these adolescents, identity formation involves not only typical developmental challenges but also navigating the perceptions and attitudes of the majority culture. As they grow, adolescents in ethnic minority groups often become increasingly aware of stereotypes, social biases, and discrimination, all of which...

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Socioemotional Experience and Gender Development
77
Social-emotional experiences and cultural influences play significant roles in shaping gender development. During middle childhood, from ages 6 to 11, peer groups become dominant in reinforcing gender norms. Children in this age group often align with same-gender peer groups, which actively encourage behaviors that conform to traditional gender roles. For instance, boys may be discouraged from engaging in activities perceived as feminine, reinforcing culturally dictated norms about masculinity...
