Math anxiety is a fear of math-related activities. The problem addressed in this study is the lack of understanding of the link between math anxiety and math performance. Students and educators are affected by math anxiety. The fear of math can also affect individuals when completing real-world activities such as filing taxes, calculating sales…

In this work, we delve into geometric analysis, particularly examining the interplay between lower bounds on Ricci curvature and specific functionals. Our exploration begins with an investigation into the implications of Yamabe invariants for asymptotically Poincare-Einstein manifolds and their conformal boundaries under conditions of…

The objective of this quantitative predictive correlational study was to ascertain whether and to what degree leadership dimensions (transformational, transactional, and passive leadership) of the cardiovascular leadership, as assessed through the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) Rater form, can predict employee job satisfaction within…

The use of social-emotional learning (SEL) in education has seen a significant increase in elementary schools with numerous studies supporting its benefits (Kim, 2022). However, the same is not true for high schools and higher education. Research supports the notion that SEL not only improves academic achievement but also enhances self-efficacy, a…

Students with disabilities (SWD) often display lower self-efficacy and have a more negative attitude toward reading compared to typically developing peers. Little research has been conducted to measure the relationship between reading self-efficacy and reading achievement of SWD. The purpose of this study was to investigate if reading…

The purpose of this study is to assess how the use of therapy dogs affect elementary students' anxiety levels and attendance. This study adds to the existing research base on the impacts of therapy dogs and the association between anxiety and attendance. Specifically, children who have frequent absences often have challenges in multiple areas, as…

Discrimination has become a significant presenting concern among college students that is strongly correlated with distress, social isolation, and suicidal ideation, even after counseling treatment (Center for Collegiate Mental Health, 2023). Over the past several years, the surge in reported incidents of antisemitism on college campuses has…

A quantitative correlational design was used to examine the correlation between classroom management strategies toward students' disruptive behaviors and their relationship on teachers' emotional well-being. The Classroom Management Questionnaire (CMQ, Diaz et al., 2018) and the Teacher Subjective Wellbeing Questionnaire (TSWQ, Renshaw et al.,…

Adults represent a vital and growing undergraduate demographic, bringing diverse experiences and expectations to the educational environment, yet their unique needs are often underserved. Adult learners face challenges beyond attending classes or completing homework (Bellare et al., 2023). This study examines the interplay between satisfaction,…

Despite studies showing that individuals with higher levels of emotional intelligence report higher job satisfaction and happiness, relatively few studies have looked at the relationship between higher levels of emotional intelligence and lower levels of teacher burnout, especially among music teachers. With so many music teaching positions going…

The purpose of this action research study was to examine the relationship between organizational socialization and organizational culture at a small institution of higher education. Various forms of data were collected using semi-structured interviews, surveys, collaborative work sessions, written feedback, and document analysis. Collaborative…

This study aimed to investigate attendance matters, where the study explicitly analyzes the correlation of chronic absenteeism in students in grades 9-12 and offers insights on intervention and strategies to address chronic absenteeism. The study participants included students of grades 9 to 12 in Tennessee schools and education stakeholders at…

It was not known the extent, if any, the four facets of shared instructional leadership (shared vision, focus on instruction, monitoring of progress, and broad collaboration) predicted School Climate (SC). This study used a quantitative, predictive correlational design using multiple regression to statistically analyze the data. The population was…

Learning styles and learning strategies are the ways participants take in, process, and apply information. Everyone has unique learning styles and learning strategies. The problem that was addressed through this study was that academic achievement could be negatively impacted when community college participants were unaware of their learning…

The present study investigates the influence of multidimensionality on linking and equating in a unidimensional IRT. Two hypothetical multidimensional scenarios are explored under a nonequivalent group common-item equating design. The first scenario examines test forms designed to measure multiple constructs, while the second scenario examines a…
