Drawing on leader-member exchange (LMX) theory, this study constructed a theoretical model to deeply explore the mechanism and boundary conditions of the relationship between supervisor developmental feedback (SDF) and postgraduate student creativity in academic organizations. Using multi-wave and multi-source data collected from 445…

The entrustment framework redirects assessment from considering only trainees' competence to decision-making about their readiness to perform clinical tasks independently. Since trainees and supervisors both contribute to entrustment decisions, we examined the cognitive and affective factors that underly their negotiation of trust, and whether…

Students are increasingly expected to take up proactive roles in feedback processes. While most feedback research focuses on asking, receiving, and engaging with feedback, some suggest that students must also proactively shape their feedback environment. This study explored graduate life science master's students' first impressions of a dialogue…

Clinical teaching is vital for preservice teacher (PST) development, yet field supervisors' roles are understudied. This study analyzes over 11,000 supervisor evaluations and PST reflections from a Texas teacher preparation program using large language models to extract measures of feedback quality and content. Supervisor feedback often lacks key…

Internships have largely been used as an effective hands-on learning tool, exposing college students to an array of occupational skills and expectations in hopes of creating prepared individuals for the workforce. Developing a better understanding of recent intern perceptions about their lived experience could help to construct a deeper…

New to the academy's 'publish or perish' game, doctoral students hold varied expectations of supervisors in relation to their publishing endeavours. These expectations can be unrealistic or contradictory to those of the supervisors and thus make supervision problematic. Set in a faculty of education in New Zealand, this study explores fantasies,…

Supervision lies at the heart of research-based doctoral education. Existing scholarship has recognized the role of supervision in students' academic socialization and identity construction but presented little empirical evidence based on prolonged observations of actual supervisory interactions. Addressing this gap, the present study adopted a…

The quality of the relationship between academic research supervisors and their students has been recognized as the most important determinant of successful and timely postgraduate degree completion. Many functions have been deemed important in facilitating this alliance. However, due to resource constraints and personal capabilities, supervisors…

There has been an increasing expectation that the provision of health services should be based on evidence because evidence-based practice is an important tool for promoting quality care and improving patient outcomes. As undergraduate health science students transition from the classroom to the workplace they are expected to transfer elements of…

Developing a research identity is a critical space for novice researchers in teacher education. This self-study explores the experiences of a postgraduate Master of Education student who was working as a novice research assistant with her supervisor to explain how these experiences contributed to research identity development. As novice researcher…

Drawing on a longitudinal case study of supervisees' and supervisors' experiences of master's dissertation supervision in a U.K. university, we identify prominent themes and use excerpts from our data to design pedagogic activities to use in workshops with staff and students focused on supervisory practice. The activities ask workshop attendees to…

The purpose of the present study was to examine Turkish counseling supervisors' and undergraduate supervisees' opinions about the supervisory relationship. Upon completion of Individual Counseling Practice course, semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with four voluntary supervisors (two female and two male) and their four voluntary…

The purpose of this study was to explore the views of postgraduate students and their thesis supervisors on the practice of thesis supervision in the Department of English Language and Literature found at an Ethiopian university. The participants of the study were twenty-seven master's students studying the teaching of English as a foreign…

PhD supervision is generally deemed a rewarding experience as supervisors and students embark on an academic journey together. Pursuing a PhD in a 'foreign' context inevitably brings forth distinct opportunities and challenges for students and their supervisors. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis, this qualitative study of supervisors…

In order to obtain qualifications to teach English as a foreign language (TEFL), teacher candidates often need to commit themselves to writing a master's (MA) thesis. In efforts to shed light on how MA thesis supervisors can support supervisees in the writing process, drawing on the theoretical framework of language socialisation, this article…
