Interactive learning environments can generate massive learning behavior data and the support of learning behavior big data can ensure the completeness of data analysis and robustness of relationship verification. In this study, learning behaviors are divided into training set and testing set, BP neural network and recurrent Elman network are…

Universities have attempted to address sexual violence on campuses through various prevention programs, including bystander intervention.

The current study investigated associations between child externalizing problems, empathy, and specific components of the DRC: (1) types of DRC goals that…

Research in the United States suggests that teachers view Black students' misbehavior as more likely to reoccur, but such research has not disentangled the effect of race from related factors. We used conjoint analysis to experimentally test the effect of multiple student characteristics on the chances of being referred for a behavior intervention…

Bystanders play a key role in understanding the phenomenon of cyberbullying (CB). The main aim of this study is to explore longitudinal bidirectional relationships among cyberbystanders' reaction, CB perpetration, and CB justification. Participants were 1,105 adolescents (56.7% girls; M[subscript age] = 13.56, SD = 1.21) who answered self-reported…

There were 42 teachers of children with ID given a questionnaire via Google Forms. The questions posed concerned the antecedents of the behavior problems in students with ID, the forms of the…

Higher education administrators are tasked with supporting and retaining students with increasing needs. These needs often include emotional and mental health issues but can worsen to include suicidality and violence toward others. Traditional campus approaches for supporting students and intervening for violence, such as counseling and campus…

Evidence-based early interventions for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have been shown to improve child outcomes and quality of life (Lord et al., 2018; Reichow et al., 2018; Smith & Iadarola, 2015). However, response to intervention is variable across both children and implementation contexts. Understanding factors that influence this…

A lack of empathy for victimized individuals has been cited as a reason for why bystanders fail to intervene when they witness bullying. However, limited research has addressed how different empathic and compassionate responses could account for diverse bystander behaviors. In this study, we investigated the unique associations of empathic…

The present study investigated the association between early career, early elementary teachers' occupational health (job stress, burnout, and perceived teaching ability) and perceptions of…

Aim(s): Across two studies, we examine links between students' perceptions of the role of contributions to class discussions in helping them stand out, the importance they place on contributing, and the observed frequency of their attempts to contribute. Method/rationale: We purposefully sampled pre-service teachers at a large university in the…

Scores of intervention programs these days apply instructional and, sometimes, systemic strategies to reduce bullying in schools. However, meta-analyses show that, on average, such programs decrease bullying and victimization only by around 20%, and often show no or negative effects in middle and high schools. Due to these sobering results, we…
