These choices are morally significant because they affect pupils’ learning opportunities. This article reports the findings of an exploratory study of primary school teachers’ differentiation beliefs and practices, which are assessed using the principles of distributive justice (equity, equality and need). A survey was completed by 294 primary school teachers. Latent profile analysis (LPA), a person-centered approach, was employed to explore the typology of teachers’ distributive justice preferences based on their differentiation beliefs. In addition, Wald chi-square analyses were conducted to identify the differences among the profiles in terms of the application of different differentiation practices. Using LPA, we distinguished four different teacher profiles regarding their beliefs about the distribution of educational resources, such as attention and support, and educational outco...

Previous research showed no difference in the level of clinical skills of PAs compared with MDs in a specific niche, that is the specialty in which they are employed. However, MDs as well as PAs working within a specialty have to be able to recognize medical problems in the full scope of medicine. The objective is to examine PA students' level of general clinical skills across the breadth of clinical cases. A cross-sectional study was conducted. PA students and recently graduated MDs in the Netherlands were observed on their clinical skills by means of an objective structured clinical examination comprising five stations with common medical cases. The level of mastering history taking, physical examination, communication and clinical reasoning of PA students and MDs were described in means and standard deviation. Cohen's d was used to present effect sizes. PA students and MDs score about equal on history taking (PA 5.8 ± 0.8 vs. MD 5.7 ± 0.7), physical examination (PA 4.8 ± 1.3 vs. MD 5.4 ± 0.8) and communication (PA: 8.2 ± 0.8 vs. MD: 8.6 ± 0.5) in the full scope of medicine. In the quality of the report, including the patient management plan, PA students scored a mean of 6.0 ± 0.6 and MDs 6.8 ± 0.6. In this setting in the Netherlands, PA students and MDs score about equal in the appraisal of common cases in medical practice. The slightly lower scores of PA students' clinical reasoning in the full scope of clinical care may have raise attention to medical teams working with PAs and PA training programmes.

Bij het gebruik van zelfrapportages bestaat het gevaar dat sociaal wenselijke antwoorden worden gegeven. Impliciete methoden uit de sociale psychologie zoals de impliciete associatie test en priming kunnen dan uitkomst bieden. We illustreren het gebruik van deze methoden aan de hand van eigen onderzoek naar de effecten van groepsstereotiepe houdingen van leraren op de prestaties van leerlingen. Dit laat zien dat met impliciete metingen van vooroordelen - in tegenstelling tot vragenlijsten - een relatie kan worden vastgesteld met prestaties van leerlingen uit groepen waarover vooroordelen bestaan.13 p

There are children, such as second language learners, who are at risk of a delay in their Dutch language development. Therefore, the language development of these children is stimulated in preschool and kindergarten. Loes van Druten-Frietman examined how differences in early language development are the result of child, family and school factors and how to stimulate this development for both first and second language learning children. The study underlines the importance of stimulating young children’s language and early literacy development, because there is a large variation at the start of preschool and kindergarten due to child and family context factors. This research project shows that the (educational) content within the preschools and kindergartens in the Netherlands is fairly uniform and of high quality. Providing Early Childhood Education programs appears to stimulate children’s language development and providing a language oriented interactive intervention seems to have an additional effect on kindergartner’s expressive vocabulary.
