Conflict and Adjustment in the Shift of Fields:A Qualitative Study on the Construction of Social Representations by Teachers in Rotational Assignments
The process by which rotational assignment teachers adapt to new work environments is essentially a reconstruction of their social representations,involving social-psychological mechanisms such as anchoring,objectification,naturalization,and integrative creation.By utilizing social representation theory as a framework,this qualitative study reveals the implicit processes of cultural conflict and adjustment experienced by exchange teachers.This approach aids in guiding these teachers to integrate the information,norms,and teaching methods encountered in the new environment with their pre-existing beliefs,experiences,and knowledge,thereby deepening the internalization of social norms and values and fostering the construction of new cognitive structures with enduring and generative significance.
