62. Effects of Job Motives, Teacher Knowledge and School Context on Beginning Teachers’ Commitment to Stay in the Profession: A Longitudinal Study in Germany, Taiwan and the United States

Author

Blömeke, Sigrid, Houang, Richard T., Hsieh, Feng-Jui, and Wang, Ting-Ying

Abstract

This three-year longitudinal study examines which teacher and school characteristics contribute to teachers’ commitment to stay in the profession. 3,000 beginning teachers from Germany, Taiwan and the USA were assessed at the end of teacher education and three years later. Multiple-group path analyses revealed that at the end of teacher education, job motives, mathematics content knowledge and teachers’ sense of preparedness significantly predicted their commitment. The relational patterns varied between countries. Similarly, the development of teachers’ commitment was significantly but with varying strengths across countries affected by job satisfaction, the perceived job burden and school quality. Policy makers need to be careful with generalizing results from one country to another. This is an accepted manuscript of a chapter from the book International Handbook of Teacher Quality and Policy. © 2017 Routledge

Principals know what the studies have recommended to improve secondary schools, but do they know with any accuracy what their publics are saying about the recommendations? This article will help principals to know more exactly what their publics are thinking about the reform movement and at what level they are willing to support the recommendations.

69. Development and Analysis of a Spatial Visualization Test for Middle School Boys and Girls

Author

Ben-Chaim, David, Lappan, Glenda, and Houang, Richard T.

Abstract

The development of a paper-and-pencil spatial-visualization test for middle school students is repotted. The test consists of 32 multiple-choice items of 10 different types. The basic figures for the stimuli and the responses for the items vary from flat views, to numerical data, to corner views of “buildings” constructed from small cubes. The test was administered to a sample of 674 boys and 676 girls in Grades 5 through 8 from three sites representing a broad range of socioeconomic background. The reliability coefficients for various groups of students ranged from .72 to .86. The test-retest reliability coefficient for 73 students was .79. Site, grade, and sex differences, consistent with many other reports, were found. For additional 582 students in Grades 8 to 12 at two sites scores correlated .61 and .66 with scores of the Differential Aptitude Space Relations Test.

87. Adiposity throughout Adulthood and Risk of Young Onset Breast Cancer Tumor Subtypes in the Young Women's Health History Study.

Abstract

Background: The role of adult adiposity in young-onset breast cancer (YOBC) subtype risk is not well understood., Methods: In this population-based case(n=1812)-control(n=1381) study of invasive YOBC (aged <50 years), cases were identified from the Los Angeles County and Metropolitan Detroit SEER registries, 2010-2015. Area-based, frequency-matched controls were sampled from the 2010 Census. General adiposity (body mass index (BMI)) and central adiposity (waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR)) across adulthood and covariates were collected from in-person interviews and measurements. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for adiposity and YOBC tumor subtypes (i.e., luminal A, luminal B, HER2+, triple negative (TN)) were calculated, overall and by parity, using multivariable weighted logistic regression., Results: Obese young adult BMI was inversely associated with luminal A YOBC (OR=0.35, 95% CI 0.16-0.79); other subtype associations were non-significant. Similarly, adult overweight and obese BMIs were inversely associated with luminal A (respectively OR=0.66, 95% CI 0.48-0.91 and OR=0.59, 95% CI 0.46-0.87), but not other subtypes. Conversely, larger WC was associated with higher odds of luminal B and TN YOBC (respectively OR=1.48, 95% CI 1.01-2.15 and OR=2.48, 95% CI 1.52-3.88), but not other subtypes (with similar results for WHtR); highest odds were among parous women., Conclusions: Findings show greater general adult adiposity is associated with reduced odds of luminal A YOBC, while greater central adiposity is associated with increased odds of luminal B and TN YOBC, particularly among parous women., Impact: Additional studies of central adiposity and YOBC subtype risk, especially incorporating pregnancy history, are warranted.
