Research Findings: Prosocial behavior in early childhood can be assessed by various informants and methodologies, but the information each provides may differ in meaningful ways. The present study measured and compared young children's (N = 486; age: M = 48.51 months, SD = 8.22) prosocial behavior based on parent reports, teacher reports, and…

Martin Daumiller; Tanja Fritz; Hernán González Cruz; Selma C. Rudert; Stefan Janke – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2024
Academic dishonesty threatens the integrity of performance assessment, making it crucial to understand the various types and predictors of such behavior. Second-party cheating, which refers to aiding and abetting cheating behaviors, is similarly prevalent as individualistic cheating, yet has received limited research attention. We follow up on…

W.; Žukauskiene, Rita – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Evidence suggests an impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health, particularly among emerging adults. However, theories on altruism born of suffering or adversarial growth suggest that we might also see prosocial behavior as a function of the pandemic, which may protect against mental health challenges. Because cultural values are central in…

David Nika – Empirical Research in Vocational Education and Training, 2025
Previous research has shown that social inequalities in the transition to higher education are a persistent phenomenon in Germany. Additionally, studies indicate that graduates from vocational schools are less likely to enter higher education, compared to their peers who graduated from general schools. However, research is scarce about how social…

Julia Jensen; Olaf Köller; Friederike Zimmermann – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2024
This study examined whether adolescent students' externalizing behavior and prosocial behavior affects their academic achievement (i.e., school grades and standardized test scores) in two major academic domains (i.e., mathematics and German) over and above well-established determinants of school achievement (i.e., prior achievement, intelligence,…

Gniewosz, Gabriela; Sticker, Regina M.; Paulus, Markus – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2023
Moral self-concept (MSC) is an important aspect of human morality and emerges in early childhood. It indicates how early children view themselves as moral agents. Yet, its structure and developmental patterns are unclear and require more research. This study addresses if the multidimensional structure of MSC is stable during early childhood and if…

Bader, Felix; Baumeister, Bastian; Berger, Roger; Keuschnigg, Marc – Sociological Methods & Research, 2021
The "transportability" of laboratory findings to other instances than the original implementation entails the robustness of rates of observed behaviors and estimated treatment effects to changes in the specific research setting and in the sample under study. In four studies based on incentivized games of fairness, trust, and reciprocity,…

Streck, Hannah; Kessels, Ursula – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2023
According to attributional theory, when the application of effort leads to success we praise the achievement. Effort and ability, however, are seen as compensatory and thus, paradoxically, being praised can lead to attributions of low ability. Our study investigates whether praise, not for academic performance, but for social classroom behavior,…

Sittipan Yotyodying; Swantje Dettmers; Kathrin Jonkmann – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2024
Past research provided strong evidence that positive family-school partnerships were not only beneficial for students' school success, but they also helped to promote parental involvement in schooling. However, relatively little is known about teachers' reasons for becoming engaged in family-school partnerships and the benefits of their…

Dominik Krinninger; Hans-Rüdiger Müller – Ethics and Education, 2024
Our contribution argues for some differentiations in the recurring debates about pedagogical tact. To this end, we will proceed in three steps. First we will refer to classical aspects of pedagogical tact such as its intermediate function between general conceptions and the specifics of concrete pedagogical situations. In a second step we will…

Methods: A realist evaluation of seven programmes from the UK, Canada, USA, Switzerland and Germany was conducted. In…

Willems, Jurgen – Educational Researcher, 2021
Civil courage refers to the behavior where people actively intervene to protect a victim in a concrete situation of injustice despite the risk of becoming a victim themselves. To act with civil courage, one requires competencies that relate to prosocial values as well as the physical and social ability to act. In this context, this brief reports…

To this end, we compared how German and Chinese children interpret and react to antisocial and prosocial interactions between puppets. An actor puppet…
