Munzar, Brendan; Muis, Krista R.; Denton, Courtney A.; Losenno, Kelsey – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
We propose a model delineating the role of control, value, and cognitive disequilibrium in elementary students' experience of emotions during mathematics problem solving. We tested this model across 2 studies. In Study 1, using an explanatory mixed-methods design, 136 students from Grades 3 to 6 worked on a complex mathematics problem appropriate…

Pennequin, Valérie; Questel, Floriane; Delaville, Emeline; Delugre, Marie; Maintenant, Célia – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
Background: The Metacognitive Affective Model of SRL (MASRL) considers the relationships between metacognition, motivation, and affect. Notably, it provides a theoretical framework to understand how subjective experiences (metacognition and affect) change self-regulation from a top-down to a bottom-up process and vice versa. Aims: The study…

Kahraman, Hanife; Yilmaz Irmak, Turkan; Basokcu, T. Oguz – Educational Sciences: Theory and Practice, 2017
Parenting practices are a field in psychology in which numerous studies have been carried out. In western countries, attempts to define the concept operationally have led to the emergence of many scales claiming to test the concept. This study aims at developing a scale to evaluate the parenting practices of parents with schoolchildren and at…

Otwinowska, Agnieszka; Forys, Malgorzata – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2017
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) is a teaching method in which learners develop linguistic competence and problem-solving abilities by learning content subjects in another language. However, learners' cognitive gains may depend on their affectivity. Negative affect hampers complex cognitive processing essential for problem-solving,…

Houtz, John C.; And Others – Journal of Psychology, 1981
Seventy-two Black and Hispanic fourth through sixth graders completed a variety of problem-solving tasks emphasizing skills of preparation, production, and judgment. With reading achievement controlled within the sample, results suggest that these three sets of skills involve evaluative activity and that locus of control and self-esteem are…

Garton, Alison F.; Gringart, Eyal – Australian Journal of Educational & Developmental Psychology, 2005
Empathy has been suggested to facilitate effective collaborative problem solving in children. The current study adapted the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI, Davis, 1980), a well-validated empathy measure for adults, for use with children aged 8 and 9 years. Four hundred and thirteen school children aged between 7;11 and 9;11 years completed…

den Bak, Irene; Rose-Krasnor, Linda – 1991
This paper reports on a study of situational influences of affect and goal value on social problem-solving in middle childhood. It was expected that the adequacy of any particular social problem-solving process would be reduced by increases in goal intensity. On the basis of prior testing, two social goals of high value and two of low value were…
