Most evidence suggests that teaching social and emotional skills in childhood can prevent problems further down the line, particularly for pupils whose family and community backgrounds may place them at-risk".
The so-called "cultural deficit model" in education argues that any underachievement among students of color or working-class students results from characteristics or features imbedded within their cultural and community backgrounds.
It is important to have people from diverse academic and community backgrounds on IRBs.
Members within the same IRB may come from disparate disciplinary and community backgrounds and have varying ideas about the nature of research, especially CBPR and projects involving results report-back.
"Most p.r. people know how to write cutesy things or have a general community background, but not all of them have the ability to answer questions I have, like how many square feet something is, or what's the cost of a project".
The PeerTrust model [15] uses the transaction and the community background as the source of reputation feedback.
None of the investigated methods were affected by the addition of a natural plankton community background matrix in experiment 3. The results of this study are discussed in the context of previous intercomparisons and the difficulties in defining the absolute, true target cell concentration.
Specifically, we used modeled NOx to represent the incremental contribution of local traffic to a more homogeneous community background concentration of NOx that included both primary and secondary pollution resulting from long-range transport and regional atmospheric photochemistry.
For models run separately by SEP, we created an index based on tenure, car access and education, where each increasing level of SEP corresponded to one point, rendering a scale of increasing SEP from 0 to 7. Lastly, we include area of residence (Belfast, Derry, towns, rural areas) and community background (Catholic, Protestant, none/other).
