Harrison, Laura M.; Williams-Cumberbatch, Helen – Journal of Transformative Education, 2022
As college student educators, we notice a pattern of difficulty in our students' ability to engage meaningfully across ideological differences. In this work, we posit the social media mindset's penchant for reductive framing and outgroup shaming as a potential diagnosis of the problem. We explore how these tendencies show up in the classroom; we…

Because cultural values are central in…

However, little research has been conducted on within-person changes of prosocial behavior and behavioral problems over time. With random-intercept cross-lagged panel models (RI-CLPMs), the current…
