The Moderating Role of Poverty on Parenting, Family Climate, and Early Adolescent Emotion Regulation
Wendy Hadley; AnnaCecilia McWhirter; Daschel Franz; Jaclyn Bogner; David H. Barker; Christie Rizzo; Christopher D. Houck – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2025
Among infants and children, family climate (e.g., warmth, cohesion, support) and parent emotion regulation (ER) modeling are found to shape ER development. Few studies have attended to this process during early adolescence, and most have neglected to examine the role of poverty, which creates additional challenges for parents and families. The…

Sabourin, Jennifer L.; Rowe, Jonathan P.; Mott, Bradford W.; Lester, James C. – Journal of Educational Data Mining, 2013
Over the past decade, there has been growing interest in real-time assessment of student engagement and motivation during interactions with educational software. Detecting symptoms of disengagement, such as off-task behavior, has shown considerable promise for understanding students' motivational characteristics during learning. In this paper, we…

Anil, Bulent; Jordan, Jeffrey L.; Zahirovic-Herbert, Velma – Urban Education, 2011
The study demonstrates a direct link between housing uncertainty and children's time preferences, or patience. We show that students who face housing uncertainties through mortgage foreclosures and eviction learn impatient behavior and are therefore at greater risk of making poor intertemporal choices such as dropping out of school. We find that…

Karcher, Michael J.; Davidson, Alice J.; Rhodes, Jean E.; Herrera, Carla – Applied Developmental Science, 2010
Cross-age peer mentoring programs, in which teenagers mentor younger children, have proliferated in recent years, yet there is disagreement about the effectiveness of such programs. This study tested whether teen mentors' attitudes about children interact with their mentees' characteristics to moderate outcomes of cross-age peer mentoring. The…

Neber, Heinz; He, Jing; Liu, Bang-Xiang; Schofield, Neville – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2008
The present study investigates whether Chinese high-school students are self-regulated learners. A social-cognitive model that distinguishes environmental, motivational, and cognitive components of this active approach to learning is described. This provides an appropriate framework for investigating this complex issue with eighth and tenth…
