Parrisius, Cora; Gaspard, Hanna; Zitzmann, Steffen; Trautwein, Ulrich; Nagengast, Benjamin – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
In their situated expectancy-value theory, Eccles and Wigfield (2020) assume students' competence and value beliefs to be situation-specific and thereby to be "situative" in nature.

Malsbary, Christine Brigid; Espinoza, Samantha; Bales, Lisa – Pedagogies: An International Journal, 2016
In usual understandings of learning, youths' development in classrooms is portrayed as a move from being a novice to an expert. However, findings of the present anthropologically framed study support us to argue that learning, rather, can be characterized as youths' simultaneous occupation of novice and expert roles. We refer to this simultaneous…
