摘要：交际的自我效能感是讨论有争议的问题和公民参与之间的重要环节，因为对一个人的话语技巧的自信对于处理相互冲突的观点和制定社区问题的解决办法是非常重要的。词汇增长项目是一个有关不同内容的扫盲项目，它支持四个主要领域的教师——英语语言艺术（ELA）、社会科学、科学和数学——通过课堂讨论、针对具体主题的课程和写作，将有争议的问题的学习嵌入其中。来自城市学区12所中学的不同背景的中学生（N=5870）参与了这一项随机调查研究。我们根据学生对其交际自我效能感的自我评定，分析了调查数据，表明他们有信心参加关于政治、社会和科学等15个不同的有争议的问题的讨论。配对样本检验表明，在当下的话题中干预组学生的交际自我效能感要高于对照组学生，而在以往的话题中并没有呈现这种差异。本研究旨在让课程开发者、政策制定者和教育者考虑将有争议的问题纳入学科教学框架的重要性。
