In this research, we used a convenience sampling and selected two high schools located in Areas in Need of Social Transformation in Seville (southern Spain). We studied the learner identity of all their students in the first and second grade of secondary postcompulsory education (N = 70). These students present a trajectory of resilience, as they remained in the education system despite facing many difficulties. In this exploratory research, their identity as learners was analysed through an interview applied in a focus group format (N = 12), where their supports, strengths and psycho-social obstacles that facilitate/ hinder their stay in the education system in the post-compulsory stage were also identified. Datasets show the instrument used for data collection, consisting of the LIRESI semi-structured interview script to be applied in focus groups, as well as the coding manual for the responses obtained in the interviews (narratives of the participants), that were fully transcribed.

Cross-cultural differences in autobiographical memory (AM) are associated with cultural variations. in models of the self and parental reminiscing style, but not many studies have analysed the relationship between AM and specific cultural practices such as formal schooling. Theoreticians like Greenfield (2009), Kağitçibaşi (2005) and Keller (2007) have considered formal schooling as an engine towards the model of independence; however, the empirical evidence in this regard is inconclusive: while some studies found evidence of a relation between formal schooling and characteristics of AM, others did not. To solve this inconsistency, the present study compared orally narrated childhood memories of Mexican adults with three different levels of education (from rudimentary literacy to university). Results support a relationship between formal schooling and AM in the predicted direction: More educated participants reported longer, more specific and more self-oriented memories than those with less schooling experience did. Some gender differences were also observed, with males generally reporting more individually and less socially oriented memories than females, except for university level participants. We conclude that these results support Greenfield’s theory about formal schooling as a sociocultural factor that promotes the cultural pathway to independence, as well as complexity and context-boundedness of gender differences in AM. The dimensions of analysis of the responses included in the Dataset are described in the Coding Manual.

We took an approach to educational resilience based on the analysis of learner identity of students that present a trajectory of resilience in severely impoverished neighborhoods. The sample consisted of 132 students from such at-risk neighborhoods, who, despite this risk, completed mandatory secondary education successfully and continue their education beyond that level. They were administered a modified version of the Twenty Statements Test (TST) to measure current and possible selves related to their learner identity. The organization of the self, the emotional valence, the plane of action, the thematic reference, and thematic self-continuity were analyzed, as well as possible selves’ relationship with grade level, gender, and parental formal education. The dimensions of analysis of the responses to the TST included in the Dataset are described in the TST Coding Manual.

Achieving adequate integration and success at school in the post-compulsory stages involving situations where there is a risk of social exclusion is a real identity challenge for adolescents. In this research, we used a convenience sampling and selected two high schools located in Areas in Need of Social Transformation in Seville (southern Spain). We studied the learner identity of all their students in the first and second grade of secondary postcompulsory education (N=70). These students present a trajectory of resilience, as they remained in the education system despite facing many difculties. In this exploratory research, their identity as learners was analysed through an interview applied in a focus group format (N=12), where their supports, strengths and psycho-social obstacles that facilitate/hinder their stay in the education system in the post-compulsory stage were also identifed. Results show that adolescents have a good attitude towards academic training, based on the conviction that, in the future, they will be able to achieve a higher quality of life and a rapid insertion in skilled jobs. The image students have of themselves combines a negative perception of their lack of work habits, the difculty of self-regulation and the little effort made, with a more positive view of their agency in the process, highlighting their intellectual and academic capacity and their efort when they set out to do so. Family, teachers and peers play a role in the resilience and identity construction of the adolescents, through protecting them, developing positive perceptions and expectations, stimulating control and effort and attributing successes and failures to students. Programmes based on the participation of the target group are essential for the design and improvement of psychosocial intervention programmes in these contexts.

La reflexión es un componente vital en las prácticas docentes profesionales. La idea de la que parte la reflexión misma es la importancia de la agencia de los futuros docentes en su propio desarrollo profesional. Nuestro estudio tiene sus raíces en investigaciones recientes sobre la necesidad de apoyar procesos de reflexión entre los estudiantes de magisterio. Desde una perspectiva histórico-cultural, nuestro objetivo es analizar las interacciones discursivas que tienen lugar durante los seminarios colaborativos en una experiencia de innovación dentro de un Prácticum reflexivo, y describir cómo los tutores universitarios apoyan y fomentan la reflexión sobre la práctica. Utilizamos un diseño de casos múltiples en el que cada caso es una unidad de aula formada por una tutora y sus alumnos. El Dataset aporta los informes preliminares de dos de estos casos, con los análisis descritos por objetivos. Cada uno de los casos está descrito en tres partes, que se corresponden con la descripción de los resultados correspondientes a los diferentes análisis realizados, la caracterización de los casos estudiados en función de la formulación de los objetivos del proyecto y la descripción del propósito compartido de la reflexión que construyen conjuntamente los participantes en el caso.

Actualmente no existe una definición consensuada sobre qué son los discursos de odio, por lo que se hace necesario identificar las condiciones que hacen a los individuos o los grupos ser receptores de discursos de odio, de cara a evaluar las medidas que se están tomando para prevenirlos y para contrarrestar sus efectos. Así pues, el objetivo de esta revisión sistemática (RS) es realizar un análisis exhaustivo sobre cuáles son las condiciones que llevan a ser objeto de los discursos de odio (por parte de la comunidad científica, las administraciones públicas y las organizaciones no gubernamentales), a nivel nacional e internacional. Como estrategias de búsqueda y fuentes de obtención de los datos se ha consultado en las bases de datos Web of Science (WOS), ERIC, PsycInfo, y en literatura gris. La RS se realizó en octubre de 2021, incluyendo documentos del año en curso en el momento de la redacción del informe. Se ha elaborado un listado de más de cincuenta condiciones que llevan a ser receptores de los discursos de odio. Se ha concluido que los discursos de odio son una construcción histórico-cultural que dependen del contexto, de la historia y de variables psicológicas y sociales, por lo que no pueden considerarse ni universales ni atemporales. En el ámbito socio educativo es necesario visibilizar los discursos de odio tolerados y analizar los discursos de odio que se observan en el grupo participante, para partir de esos discursos y después trabajar sobre otros discursos de odio durante el proceso.

In at-risk areas of social exclusion, a higher number of adolescents drop out of school. Dropout from compulsory education and early school leaving are associated with unemployment, poverty, and greater health problems, posing a significant threat to the youth’s development and wellbeing. Nevertheless, some students manage to pursue formal education even in high-risk areas, exhibiting resilience. Interwoven between the processes of risk and resilience, the students’ identity development plays a vital role. The present study aimed to analyze the learner identity of students who exhibit a resilience trajectory in areas at risk of social exclusion, and its relation to the degree of risk they face, their academic experience, and their gender. The sample consisted of 132 students from at-risk neighborhoods in Spain who successfully completed compulsory secondary education and continued beyond that level. To measure their academic selves, a modified version of the Twenty Statement Test (TST) was used, which was analyzed using a category system that included four dimensions: organization of the self, emotional valence, plane of action, and thematic reference. The results indicate the participants primarily used personal, positive, evaluative self-descriptions related to the academic world, mostly based on effort. A higher degree of risk was associated to more self-descriptions referring good relationships with others and class attendance, while higher academic experience was associated to more independent selves. The study also found several gender differences. The implications of these findings for research and social intervention in at-risk contexts are discussed.

Dentro del contexto de la denominada Sociedad del Conocimiento, resulta vital conocer en profundidad cómo interactúan los usuarios en las redes sociales y muy en concreto con la interfaz de Twitter. Hasta la fecha, se han realizado infinidad de investigaciones sobre la relevancia comercial, reputacional, de alcance o de penetración de este microblog. Casi todas ellas, han puesto de manifiesto la importancia de tener presencia personal o empresarial en esta red social. Con este informe se pretende reconocer cómo los usuarios emplean esta herramienta y descubrir cuál es la manera más eficiente de participar en esta red social., Within the “Knowledge based society” context, it is essential to know how users interact in social networks and specially with the Twitter interface. Up to now, it has been the object of several scientific research and studies on the microblog’s commercial relevance, reputation, significance or introduction. Almost all of them have shown the importance of personal or business presence in this social network. However, the report produced by Redbility, Influenzia and the Universidad Europea de Madrid, tries to show how users use this tool via differents devices and find out what is the most efficient way to participate in this social network., Depto. de Periodismo y Comunicación Global, Fac. de Ciencias de la Información, TRUE, pub
