Emotional dysregulation presents substantial challenges to parents' well-being and healthy child development. Nonetheless, many parents find self-regulation a challenge to manage, which may result in adverse consequences (Lunkenheimer et al., 2023). The purpose of this quantitative cross-sectional survey design study was to examine relationships…

This study used quantitative hierarchical regression modeling to investigate factors influencing student grades in the context of online tutoring, guided by Tinto's persistence theory. The purpose of this quantitative predictive correlational study was to determine if and to what extent do demographics (gender and age), prior academic success…

This quantitative study explored the relationship between perceived leadership behaviors and follower satisfaction, accounting for demographic variables like gender, age, education, and role. The research collected data from 234 faculty and staff members using three surveys. The demographic survey captured information on the follower's gender,…

Persistence in distance learning has become problematic. This quantitative nonexperimental study examined whether perceived connectivity, perceived internal locus of control, and age predict persistence in online master's degree programs. Rotter's locus of control theory, Moore's transactional distance theory, and Rovai's composite persistence…

A study was conducted to determine if previously incarcerated employee age, postsecondary education (PSE) attainment, prior incarceration status, and assessed self-efficacy predict job satisfaction. It also considered if organizational commitment had a moderating effect on the predictors ability to forecast the criterion. Two underlying theories…

Traditional research agrees that only effective school principals can fully influence student achievement, and school leaders are pivotal to the success of schools in America. Researchers have linked positive student outcomes to further illustrate the point, including student achievement, to high-quality school leadership. The purpose of this…

The purpose of this study is to assess whether there is a relationship between neighborhood inequality in which underrepresented minorities (URMs) with STEM degrees reside and their employment in STEM fields. The current study deploys an Intersectional Theory (IT) research framework and Bourdieu's Theory of Practice to identify the influence of…

Not all students who enroll in college complete their degree. Students who drop out of college and fail to graduate represent a dilemma for higher education administrators. Determining factors that may lead to attrition has been a topic of discussion amongst educators. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are any relationships…

Death anxiety has been an unremitting agent of the human experience. The psychological dilemma posed by the awareness and forecasting of death can increase anxiety, thus affecting well-being through the compulsive desire or will to persist (Becker, 1973; Yalom, 1980). Such psychological armor can manifest in conscious and unconscious behaviors,…

The purpose of this quantitative, correlational-predictive study was to understand if and to what extent the demographic variables Age, Gender, and Years of Experience individually or combined predict Belief in Neurological Myths among higher education faculty in the United States. The approach utilized is grounded in the ongoing study of belief…

This study investigates student perceptions of artificial intelligence (AI). The study analyzed four independent variables -- age, gender, school, and employment -- to predict students' level of readiness to adopt AI within an educational setting. Using an instrument with two constructs, data was collected from a diverse, multicultural group of…

Researchers have been looking into the stressful nature of teaching for quite some time. Kyriacou (2001) maintains that teaching is one of the top five most stressful careers, while Stoeber and Rennert (2018) indicate that teachers exhibit a higher level of stress than any other profession (Bowen, 2016, p. 1205). Much educational and psychological…

The problem that this study investigated is whether a set of characteristics (gender, age, region, race/ethnicity, and path to licensure) predict the level of interest of principals in pursuing the superintendency. This quantitative, correlational study aimed to address this problem by investigating if demographic factors can predict K-12…

Nearly 14% of students in the United States receive special education services in public schools (NCES, 2017). Special education programs serve students with a wide range of developmental differences and vary considerably across schools and districts (National Research Council, 1997). Likelihood of identification for special education services…

Nursing educators are challenged to find strategies that will develop critical thinking and clinical judgment abilities in students. As technology has advanced, the use of virtual simulation platforms has increased in use in nursing courses. This study examined the effect of a pilot virtual simulation intervention on critical thinking and clinical…
