TY - JOUR A1 - Then, Daniel A1 - Pohlmann-Rother, Sanna T1 - Adaptivity in the inclusive transition to school JF - Frontiers in Education N2 - The transition to school is a key juncture in an individual’s educational trajectory, with far-reaching effects on the development of children and their families. Successful transitions require flexibility in the design of the transition process, addressing the needs of the persons involved in an adaptive manner. Adaptivity is also considered crucial for the success of inclusive transitions. However, a systematic breakdown of the aspects that characterize the concept of adaptivity in the context of inclusive school entry is not available at this point. This article therefore provides a conceptualization of adaptivity in the inclusive transition to school as well as a review of the current literature focusing this topic. The goal is to develop a model that structures the various aspects of adaptivity at school entry and offers an overview of the way these aspects are important to design the transition successfully according to current findings of empirical research. Building on a concept of transitions informed by ecological systems theory, we are guided by the assumption that adaptivity at transition to school may occur in three forms: as a feature of the persons involved in the transition; as a feature of the processes that moderate the course of the transition; and as a feature of the structures that frame the transition. Based on this distinction, we develop a model that presents adaptivity in the inclusive transition to school.

Journal of Childhood and Adolescence Research N2 - Der Übergang in die Sekundarstufe stellt für Kinder ein normativ kritisches Lebensereignis dar, das unterschiedlich bewertet und bewältigt wird. Der vorliegende Beitrag befasst sich mit der Frage, welche Schutzfaktoren dazu beitragen, dass Kinder dem Übergang mit Gefühlen der Vorfreude begegnen und sie dieses Ereignis problemorientiert bewältigen. Untersucht werden 596 ViertklässlerInnen aus Bayern und Hessen vor dem Übergang in die Sekundarstufe. In Anlehnung an die kognitiv-transaktionale Theorie von Lazarus und Folkman (1984) werden die Zusammenhänge von primärer Bewertung als Herausforderung und problemorientierter Stressbewältigung unter Berücksichtigung von personalen (akademisches Selbstkonzept, Selbstwirksamkeit) und sozialen Schutzfaktoren (Familienzusammenhalt, allgemeines förderndes Elternverhalten) analysiert. Mithilfe von Strukturgleichungsmodellen lassen sich Mediationseffekte der Schutzfaktoren nachweisen. Insbesondere das akademische Selbstkonzept und ein förderliches Familienumfeld erweisen sich als bedeutsame protektive Faktoren in der Phase vor dem Übergang. N2 - Transition to secondary school constitutes a normative critical life event for children, which is evaluated and managed individually. The present study focuses on the role of protective factors helping children to approach this transition with emotions of pleasant anticipation and problem-focused coping. 596 fourth graders from Bavaria and Hesse were examined prior to their transition to secondary school. Referring to the cognitive-transactional theory from Lazarus and Folkman (1984), correlations between primary appraisal as a challenge and problem-focused coping in consideration of personal (academic self-concept, self-efficacy) and social protective factors (family cohesion, general supportive parent behavior) have been analyzed. Using structural equation models, the mediation effects of protective factors can be confirmed. Academic self-concept and a supportive family environment particularly proved to be protective factors prior to the transition.

T1 - Accessing topological superconductivity via a combined STM and renormalization group analysis JF - Nature Communications N2 - The search for topological superconductors has recently become a key issue in condensed matter physics, because of their possible relevance to provide a platform for Majorana bound states, non-Abelian statistics, and quantum computing. Here we propose a new scheme which links as directly as possible the experimental search to a material-based microscopic theory for topological superconductivity. For this, the analysis of scanning tunnelling microscopy, which typically uses a phenomenological ansatz for the superconductor gap functions, is elevated to a theory, where a multi-orbital functional renormalization group analysis allows for an unbiased microscopic determination of the material-dependent pairing potentials. The combined approach is highlighted for paradigmatic hexagonal systems, such as doped graphene and water-intercalated sodium cobaltates, where lattice symmetry and electronic correlations yield a propensity for a chiral singlet topological superconductor. We demonstrate that our microscopic material-oriented procedure is necessary to uniquely resolve a topological superconductor state.
