Xin Liu; Kajsa Yang Hansen; Martin Valcke; Jan De Neve – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2024
This study examines the relationship between instructional quality and mathematics achievement, taking into account socioeconomic status. Data from ten European countries participating in PISA 2012 and 2022 were analysed using the framework of the Dynamic Modelling of Educational Effectiveness. In PISA 2012, instructional quality was defined by…

Pablo Araya Cortés; Cristian Macías Domínguez; Luis Pires Jiménez; Rosa Santero Sánchez; Ismael Sanz Labrador – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2024
This article examines the impact of within-class age differences on educational outcomes, using students' birth months in Madrid's primary schools as a natural experiment. Employing a regression discontinuity design, we analyze third-grade students to investigate these age-related effects. Additionally, we explore whether early childhood education…

Loso Judijanto; Tugimin Supriyadi; Jitu Halomoan Lumbantoruan; Jeranah – Elementary School Forum (Mimbar Sekolah Dasar), 2023
The low results of learning mathematics from year to year give rise to suggestions for students that mathematics is a difficult lesson. This needs to be researched to find out the relationship between mathematics learning attitudes, anxiety, habits, and additional mathematics learning outcomes. Quantitative research method with a survey approach.…

Pedro San Martin Soares – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2024
Brazil's education system lags behind international standards, with two-fifths of students scoring below the minimum level of proficiency in mathematics, science, and reading. Thus, this study combined machine learning with traditional statistics to identify the most important predictors and to interpret their effects on proficiency in the PISA…

Spitzer, Markus Wolfgang Hermann; Moeller, Korbinian – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Background: Mastering fractions seems among the most critical mathematical skills for students to acquire in school as fraction understanding significantly predicts later mathematic achievements, but also broader academic and vocational prospects. As such, identifying longitudinal predictors of fraction understanding (e.g., mastery of numbers and…

Xia Kang; Jianyun She; Yajun Wu – Psychology in the Schools, 2025
With the affective turn in education, particularly with the control-value theory (CVT) proposal, a wide range of antecedents of achievement emotions, including psychological capital (PsyCap), have been investigated and verified. It is worth noting, however, that few studies have examined whether cognitive appraisals mediate the association between…
