While research on the educational experiences of immigrant students typically focuses on their (responses to) educational challenges, there is a lack of research on understanding the academic risk-taking behaviors of immigrant students. This study addresses this gap by examining the mental risk-taking skills of Syrian immigrant students in Türkiye…

The objective of this article is to develop a causal relationship factor model affecting entrepreneurial behavior for sustainable development using a mixed-methods research approach that integrated both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. The quantitative phase involved testing the causal relationships affecting entrepreneurial behavior by…

This pilot study evaluated the effects of a mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) on teacher stress and coping as well as students' prosocial classroom behavior. This study also explored the implementation fidelity and social validity of this MBI with teachers. This study used a single-case multiple baseline design across four elementary teachers.…

In the context of instructional design and self-regulated learning research, the notion of mental effort allocation, monitoring, and control has gained increasing attention. Bringing together a cognitive perspective, focusing on Cognitive Load Theory, and a motivational perspective, merging central accounts from Situated Expectancy Value Theory…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is the process of utilizing effective strategies to acquire knowledge or skills and is influenced by motivation, metacognitive processing, and study-related behaviors. We hypothesized that by using survey tools that allow reflection on and refinement of students' study strategies, we could nurture metacognitive skill…

This study aimed to investigate the interaction between exploratory behaviours and entrepreneurial opportunity recognition among agriculture students mediated by strategic learning and mindfulness. The study was conducted on agriculture students of Bu-Ali Sina University in Hamadan, Iran (N = 420). The sample was 200 people taken by the simple…

Instructional videos risk overloading learners' limited working memory resources due to the transient information effect. Learner control is one way to mitigate this concern, but has shown almost zero overall effect and considerable heterogeneity. Consequently, it is essential to identify when learner control is most beneficial. The present study…

Classroom intervention focusing on peer interaction persuades children to develop positive behaviour. Peer interaction plays a significant role in managing problem behaviour among adolescent children. It facilitates identifying weaknesses in children's justification for their problem behaviour. Thus, the study aimed to propose a classroom…

Objective: The current study aimed to examine whether brief online stress reduction exercises supplemented with sleep improvement strategies would reduce stress, arousal, and sleep difficulties in college students who were not required to use the sleep improvement strategies for participation. Participants: A sample of 114 college student…

The negative effects of media multitasking have been addressed in previous studies, and the widespread adoption of online learning to control the outbreak of COVID-19 has further increased concerns about the media use, especially media multitasking, among adolescent students. However, very few studies have explored the protective factors against…

This qualitative study delves into the intricate landscape of general chemistry students' study strategy decision-making processes, examining the guiding factors that shape their choices. Past work in chemistry education has shown that students' study behaviors are dynamic in nature. Employing self-regulation theory, the study aims to provide a…

Objective: Combined alcohol and disordered eating (drunkorexia) are alcohol fueled weight management behaviors. Mindfulness negatively relates to both disordered eating and alcohol use. Participants: Participants (n = 344, average age 20) were primarily female (85.2%, n = 293), and Caucasian (82.6%, n = 284). Methods: Students reported drunkorexia…

Metacognition is the process of thinking about one's own thinking, learning, and problem-solving strategies. It involves being aware of one's own cognitive processes and knowing how to regulate and monitor them. Sustainability, instead, refers to the ability to maintain or preserve resources and ecosystems for future generations. Here, we draw…

Research suggests that improving executive function (EF) skills using mindfulness-based interventions is promising, though few studies investigate mindfulness-based interventions for young children. The current study evaluated preliminary data examining EF over the course of a 12-week mindfulness-based curriculum implemented within preschool…

Student academic success depends on a variety of factors, one of which is self-regulation of learning. An important part of self-regulation involves selecting from a myriad of course resources available and planning to use those resources. This study explores the use of an online tool to help undergraduate students improve self-regulation by…
