Abstract:
The overarching goal of this dissertation was to evaluate the contextual components of instructional strategies for the acquisition of complex programming concepts. A meta-knowledge processing model is proposed, on the basis of the research findings, thereby facilitating the selection of media treatment for electronic courseware. When implemented, this model extends the work of Smith (1998), as a front-end methodology, for his glass-box interpreter called Bradman, for teaching novice programmers.

Abstract:
Background: Maternal mind-mindedness describes mothers’ tendency to attribute internal states to their children (Meins, 1997) and has been shown to have clear links with positive developmental outcomes for children. However, the nature of the construct has not yet been fully explored. Maternal mind-mindedness has been described as both a cognitive-behavioural trait and as a relational construct but crucially designs have included only one child per mother so it has not been possible to investigate whether a mother’s mind-mindedness is related with different children.

Abstract:
The influence of cognitive organization, dysfunctional attitudes, and depressive "subtype" on the perceptions of negative life events is explored. BDI scores are used to delineate symptomatic and non-symptomatic groups. Construct content (sociotropic versus autonomous, as first defined by Beck) is used to identify predominant schema-type. Subjects completed a Problematic Situations Questionnaire with Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale. Results indicate that depressed individuals display more dysfunctional attitudes and negative affect in all types of negative situations; further the endorsement of

Collaboration in CBT has been conceptualised in dichotomous ways.

Abstract:
Cette thèse analyse le contraste entre l'importance d'être "orienté(e) vers le futur" et la qualité de nos pensées relatives au futur.
