Direct linkFerguson, Leila E.; Braten, Ivar – Learning and Instruction, 2013
Using cluster-analysis in a sample of 65 Norwegian 10th graders, we identified subgroups characterized by relatively high levels of knowledge combined with relatively low beliefs in personal justification of knowledge claims, as well as subgroups characterized by the opposite pattern of knowledge and personal justification. Moreover, the high…

Ortner, Tuulia M.; Vormittag, Isabella – Learning and Instruction, 2011
Effects of test administrator's gender on test takers' self-estimated verbal general knowledge and de facto verbal general knowledge were investigated. Based on three theories previously applied in research dealing with the effects of test administrator's ethnicity, it was expected male and female test takers to show higher scores under female…

Desimoni, Marta; Scalisi, Teresa Gloria; Orsolini, Margherita – Learning and Instruction, 2012
A sample of 170 Italian children was assessed for reading accuracy, reading speed, text comprehension and spelling in Grades 1 and 3 in order to investigate the concurrent and longitudinal relationships among literacy skills. Main results from multivariate analyses (regression, discriminant and path analyses) indicated that reading speed was the…

Kieschke, Ulf; Schaarschmidt, Uwe – Learning and Instruction, 2008
The interplay of occupational engagement and individual coping capacity is very important. A methodological tool that provides the means for such an analysis which includes psychological aspects of the health is the "Arbeitsbezogenes Verhaltens- und Erlebensmuster" questionnaire (AVEM: Pattern of Work-related Coping Behavior). This…

Nijhuis, Jan; Segers, Mien; Gijselaers, Wim – Learning and Instruction, 2008
The variability in deep and surface learning has been discussed as part of the trait vs. state debate. However, the question is to what extent students change strategies as a function of course demands. This study focused on discerning subgroups of learners with respect to variability in learning strategies and the role of students' learning…

Watt, Helen M. G.; Richardson, Paul W. – Learning and Instruction, 2008
The professional plans, satisfaction levels, demographic characteristics, perceptions and motivations of different teacher types distinguished by cluster analysis were investigated among graduate-entry primary and secondary teacher education candidates (N=510) from three Australian universities in an ongoing longitudinal study. Participants…

Van Driel, Jan H.; Bulte, Aastrid M. W.; Verloop, Nico – Learning and Instruction, 2007
In this exploratory study the relationships between teachers' general educational beliefs about teaching and learning and their domain specific beliefs about a particular curriculum, that is, the chemistry curriculum for upper secondary education in The Netherlands were investigated. For this purpose, a questionnaire survey was conducted among the…

Scheiter, Katharina; Gerjets, Peter; Vollmann, Brigitte; Catrambone, Richard – Learning and Instruction, 2009
Against the background of an adaptation of Cognitive Load Theory to learner-controlled settings we investigated the impact of learner characteristics on information utilization strategies, cognitive load, and learning outcomes in a hypermedia environment. Based on the data of 79 students, five clusters of students were identified according to…

Gravani, M. N.; Hadjileontiadou, S. J.; Nikolaidou, G. N.; Hadjileontiadis, L. J. – Learning and Instruction, 2007
Studies have suggested that professional learning is influenced by two key parameters, i.e., climate and planning, and their associated variables (mutual respect, collaboration, mutual trust, supportiveness, openness). In this paper, we applied analysis of the relationships between the proposed quantitative, fuzzy logic-based model and a series of…

Fukkink, R.G. – Learning and Instruction, 2005
The paper reports on a study among primary-school students of the process of deriving word meaning from written context in a first language. A sequential analysis of think-aloud protocols revealed that the students inferred one or more meanings, checked their inferences and then rejected or accepted them. These activities were performed in a…

Frenzel, Anne C.; Pekrun, Reinhard; Goetz, Thomas – Learning and Instruction, 2007
A multilevel approach was used to analyze relationships between perceived classroom environments and emotions in mathematics. Based on Pekrun's (2000) [A social-cognitive, control-value theory of achievement emotions. In J. Heckhausen (Ed.), Motivational psychology of human development (pp. 143-163)] social-cognitive, control-value theory of…

Gender differences in cognitive abilities were studied in 1,224 13-year olds using a multivariate latent variables approach. No gender differences were found in the structure of cognitive abilities, but mean differences in favor of females were found for general intelligence, with higher means for males on most spatial dimensions.

Lerkkanen, Marja-Kristiina; Rasku-Puttonen, Helena; Aunola, Kaisa; Nurmi, Jari-Erik – Learning and Instruction, 2004
This study examined children's reading performance and its developmental trajectories during the first and the second grade. Ninety children were tested five times on word reading and reading comprehension. Qualitatively different groups were identified through cluster analysis: Competent, Technical, and Poor Readers. The results showed that the…
