Quantitative studies in education often treat race, ethnicity, culture, or migration status as natural, fixed units of analysis, perpetuating oversimplified views of education inequities. While uncritical, poorly theorized, and retrospective group comparisons may reinforce deficit perspectives of marginalized communities, comparative research also has the potential to highlight the unique strengths and resources these groups possess. However, conducting group-based comparisons and showcasing ethno-racial heterogeneity remains a complex challenge. To highlight critical approaches informed by the QuantCrit framework, our review describes the importance of using alternative operationalizations of ethno-racial categories, effect coding, and person-centered analysis. It also summarizes recent educational studies that have employed these approaches to critically engage with group-based comparisons in education. Our insights aim to promote conducting group-based educational studies with quantitative approaches upholding critical reflexivity.

教育领域的定量研究通常将种族、民族、文化或移民身份视为自然的、固定的分析单位，使教育不平等的观点过于简单化。虽然不加批判、缺乏理论依据和回顾性的群体比较可能会强化边缘化群体的缺陷视角，但比较研究也有可能突出这些群体拥有的独特优势和资源。然而，进行以群体为基础的比较并展示种族异质性仍然是一项复杂的挑战。为了强调QuantCrit框架提供的关键方法，我们的综述描述了使用民族-种族类别、效果编码和以人为中心的分析的替代操作化的重要性。它还总结了最近的教育研究，这些研究采用这些方法批判性地参与教育中基于群体的比较。我们的见解旨在促进开展以群体为基础的教育研究，采用坚持批判性反思的定量方法。

Control theory, a field rooted in engineering and mathematics, aims to understand and influence the behavior of dynamic systems to achieve desired outcomes. Its principles are particularly suited for studying human visuomotor control, as humans inherently operate as dynamic systems. Visuomotor behaviors require the continuous integration of visual input with motor responses, often in the presence of disturbances or unpredictable changes. By applying control theory, researchers gain significant insights into how the visual system processes information to produce adaptive motor outputs, enabling the simulation and prediction of precise movements, such as eye and manual tracking, driving, and playing sports. This review highlights recent progress in applying classical control theory to investigate visuomotor control across diverse populations, including normal adults, athletes, and individuals with neuromotor disorders like Parkinson’s disease. Future directions for research are also discussed, emphasizing the potential of control theory methods to deepen our understanding of visuomotor control and improve therapeutic interventions.

控制理论是一个植根于工程和数学的领域，旨在理解和影响动态系统的行为，以达到预期的结果。它的原理特别适合于研究人类的视觉运动控制，因为人类本身就是一个动态系统。视觉运动行为需要视觉输入与运动反应的持续整合，通常在存在干扰或不可预测的变化的情况下。通过应用控制理论，研究人员获得了视觉系统如何处理信息以产生自适应运动输出的重要见解，从而能够模拟和预测精确的运动，例如眼睛和手动跟踪，驾驶和运动。本文综述了应用经典控制理论研究不同人群视觉运动控制的最新进展，包括正常成年人、运动员和帕金森病等神经运动障碍患者。本文还讨论了未来的研究方向，强调了控制理论方法在加深我们对视觉运动控制的理解和改进治疗干预方面的潜力。

This paper critiques the reliance on teacher value-added metrics in educational policy, examining their impact on urban housing markets and demographic shifts. Drawing from the 2012 release of such data in New York City, the study reveals how these metrics perpetuate socioeconomic and racial inequities by relying on standardized test scores that embed systemic biases. Employing a QuantCrit framework, the analysis highlights missed opportunities to integrate racial equity perspectives and proposes a paradigm shift toward justice-oriented quantitative inquiry. Recommendations include adopting culturally responsive measures, enhancing community participation, and reimagining definitions of school quality to foster inclusivity. The paper also explores the broader implications of these metrics, such as their role in exacerbating gentrification and displacing marginalized populations. By integrating interdisciplinary methods and emphasizing equity, this work aims to reshape educational metrics and policies to dismantle systemic barriers and promote equitable outcomes for all students.

本文批评了教育政策中对教师增值指标的依赖，考察了它们对城市住房市场和人口变化的影响。根据2012年纽约市发布的此类数据，该研究揭示了这些指标是如何通过依赖嵌入系统性偏见的标准化考试成绩，使社会经济和种族不平等永久化的。采用QuantCrit框架，该分析强调了整合种族平等观点的错失机会，并提出了向以正义为导向的定量调查的范式转变。建议包括采取文化响应措施，加强社区参与，以及重新定义学校质量以促进包容性。本文还探讨了这些指标的更广泛含义，例如它们在加剧中产阶级化和边缘化人口流离失所方面的作用。通过整合跨学科方法和强调公平，这项工作旨在重塑教育指标和政策，消除系统性障碍，促进所有学生获得公平的结果。

Act natural: a review of new methods for assessing dopamine’s role in natural behavior 自然行为：评估多巴胺在自然行为中的作用的新方法综述

In patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), loss of the key neurochemical dopamine (DA) in the basal ganglia leads to movements that are both more difficult to initiate and, once initiated, less vigorous. Yet, despite the robust link between basal ganglia DA loss and movement-related symptoms in PD, a mechanistic picture relating movement patterns with DA release has yet to emerge. We contend that one key hurdle in understanding this relationship is technical. Historically, the field has lacked the tools to easily resolve moment-to-moment changes in DA concentration across key brain structures while also capturing and quantifying fluid, naturalistic movements in freely behaving animals. In this review, we focus on recent technical advances that have fueled this type of experiment and how they have informed our understanding of DA’s role in natural behavior.

在帕金森病（PD）患者中，基底神经节中关键神经化学物质多巴胺（DA）的缺失会导致运动更难以启动，而且一旦启动，就会变得不那么有力。然而，尽管基底节区DA丢失与PD的运动相关症状之间存在强大的联系，但运动模式与DA释放相关的机制尚未出现。我们认为，理解这种关系的一个关键障碍是技术上的。从历史上看，该领域缺乏工具来轻松解决关键大脑结构中DA浓度的实时变化，同时捕获和量化自由行为动物的流体，自然运动。在这篇综述中，我们重点介绍了最近的技术进步，这些技术进步推动了这类实验，以及它们如何使我们了解DA在自然行为中的作用。

This review synthesizes literature on the moral arguments of those who engage in collective action to promote climate reform, as well as the moral arguments of those who engage in collective action to oppose mitigation efforts. Although these groups have competing goals, we make the case that their moral arguments cluster around similar themes: the need to avoid harm, the need to preserve fairness, and the need to maintain environmental purity. We describe reasons why expressing moral arguments can amplify and polarize intergroup contests between supporters and opponents of climate action. We finish by making recommendations for how moralized polarization around climate change can be managed in a way that reduces gridlock and facilitates constructive dialogue.

本综述综合了从事集体行动以促进气候改革的人的道德论点，以及从事集体行动以反对减缓努力的人的道德论点。虽然这些团体有相互竞争的目标，但我们认为他们的道德论点围绕着相似的主题：避免伤害的需要，保持公平的需要，以及保持环境纯净的需要。我们描述了表达道德论点可以放大和极化气候行动支持者和反对者之间的群体间竞争的原因。最后，我们就如何以减少僵局和促进建设性对话的方式管理围绕气候变化的道德极化提出了建议。

Motivating people to take collective climate action is an ongoing challenge. Recent research suggests that focusing on climate change as a human health issue is an encouraging approach. Here, we review the persuasive potential of health-framed climate messages and the importance of health professionals as trusted messengers in engaging audiences and increasing support for collective action, especially among people with lower levels of climate concern. We also examine the current state of the climate–health information environment. Our review suggests that: 1) communicating the health relevance of climate change and the health benefits of climate solutions has considerable potential to promote collective action, especially when communicated by health professionals; 2) many health professionals are motivated to communicate about this topic; and 3) information about this important topic is under-represented in the broader information environment.

激励人们采取集体气候行动是一项持续的挑战。最近的研究表明，把气候变化作为一个人类健康问题来关注是一种令人鼓舞的做法。在此，我们回顾了以健康为框架的气候信息的说服潜力，以及卫生专业人员作为值得信赖的信使在吸引受众和增加对集体行动的支持方面的重要性，特别是在气候关注程度较低的人群中。我们还研究了气候健康信息环境的现状。我们的综述表明：1)传播气候变化的健康相关性和气候解决方案的健康益处具有促进集体行动的巨大潜力，特别是当卫生专业人员传播时；2)许多卫生专业人员有动力就这一主题进行交流；3)关于这一重要话题的信息在更广泛的信息环境中代表性不足。

Climate change and environmental degradation are amongst the most pressing issues facing humankind of our time. Concerted collective action is needed to tackle them. This includes a range of domains and behaviours from the support of pro-environmental policies to climate activism. Much research has highlighted the important role that a positive approach to climate messaging and communication can have on individual behaviour. Taking this promising line of research forward, this review examines the role of positivity in collective climate action. I first delineate the terms collective action and positivity as used in this review. I then summarise recent empirical findings at the intersection of positivity and collective climate action, organised by the type of positivity-related concept investigated. These are, in particular, hope, efficacy, and positive future visions. Finally, I offer suggestions for future research to stimulate further investigation into the promising role of positivity for collective climate action in the years ahead.

气候变化和环境退化是当今人类面临的最紧迫问题之一。需要采取协调一致的集体行动来解决这些问题。这包括从支持环保政策到气候行动主义的一系列领域和行为。许多研究都强调了积极的气候信息和沟通方法对个人行为的重要作用。为了推进这一有希望的研究方向，本综述探讨了积极性在集体气候行动中的作用。我首先概述了本文中使用的集体行动和积极性这两个术语。然后，我总结了最近在积极性和集体气候行动的交叉点上的实证发现，按所调查的积极性相关概念的类型组织。特别是希望、功效和积极的未来愿景。最后，我对未来的研究提出了建议，以激发对未来几年集体气候行动的积极作用的进一步研究。

This paper examines the evolution of quantitative approaches in critical consciousness (CC) research through a critical quantitative (CritQuant) perspective. Historically, CC scholarship relied on qualitative methods due to concerns about the restrictive assumptions and historical biases of quantitative methodologies. However, since 2005, quantitative methods have become common in CC research. We reflect on five principles of CritQuant — foundation, goals, parity, subjectivity, and self-reflexivity — to demonstrate how they align with past and present CC research. Our hope is that CritQuant, QuantCrit, and allied methodologies will continue to inform and be informed by CC and related research.

本文通过批判定量（CritQuant）的视角考察了定量方法在批判意识（CC）研究中的演变。历史上，CC学术依赖于定性方法，因为担心定量方法的限制性假设和历史偏差。然而，自2005年以来，定量方法在CC研究中变得普遍。我们反思了CritQuant的五个原则——基础、目标、平等、主观性和自我反思——以展示它们如何与过去和现在的CC研究保持一致。我们希望CritQuant、QuantCrit和相关方法将继续为CC和相关研究提供信息，并从CC和相关研究中获得信息。
