Self-report measures are essential sources of information about learners' studying perceptions. These perceptions also guide self-regulated learning (SRL) decisions and strategies in future studying. However, the development of self-report methods has not kept pace with other multi-modal methodological advancements, particularly in the field of…

One of the most important indicators of artificial intelligence applications used to improve quality, effectiveness, and student success by optimizing instructional processes is readiness. Readiness is the cognitive, affective, and behavioral state of performing a behavior or using a technology. In this context, the development of a data…

Measurement invariance allows for the comparison and interpretation of scores obtained from the same scales at different times.
