This article reports on an integrative literature review of the self-study research published between 2009 and 2021 and examines how authors defined, enacted, and addressed validity within the self-study literature. We follow the example provided in the 2004 article by Feldman, Paugh, and Mills in order to gain more insights into the distinctions…

Children tend to overestimate their performance on a variety of tasks and activities. The present meta-analysis examines the specificity of this phenomenon across age, tasks, and more than five decades of historical time (1968-2021). Self-overestimation was operationalized as the ratio between children's prospective self-estimates of task…

Media and information literacy (MIL) is a key concept in several research fields and measuring the levels of MIL is considered valuable for policy stakeholders. However, the concept is complex, and few systematic reviews of research on measuring MIL levels have been conducted. This article draws on a systematic review of peer-reviewed studies…

Students are the central agent in self-assessment; therefore, their perceptions are crucial for successful self-assessment. Despite the increasing number of empirical studies exploring how students perceive self-assessment, systematic reviews synthesising students' perceptions of self-assessment and relating them to self-assessment implementation…

Accurate measurement of wisdom is the cornerstone of wisdom research. To provide a representative reference for the reliability level and moderating factors of various wisdom self-rating scales, we carried out a reliability generalization meta-analysis of Chinese and English references retrieved from 2004 to 2023. A total of 149 articles were…

Self-monitoring encompasses observation of one's own behavior that can be used by teachers to improve their performance in the classroom. In this systematic review, we searched three databases to discover published research using teachers as participants implementing self-monitoring procedures in a school setting from January 1990 through October…

The higher education shift to remote learning due to mobility restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need to improve the student learning experience using more active learning models. One model is peer assessment. Despite positively impacting student learning, peer assessment uptake remains low, partly because designing…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a key competence for pre-service teachers to develop, both for their own activities as learners and for their future activities as teachers. Therefore, it is crucial to understand how pre-service teachers can be supported in acquiring SRL competence in their initial training. To reach this aim, we conducted a…

Background: Views can be collected from individuals (self-report) or others on their behalf (proxy-report). Objective: We aimed to review the literature on methods and statistical approaches used to evaluate observer versus self-report responses from individuals with intellectual disability or Down syndrome. Methods: A series of key questions…

For attaining success in writing, motivation is essential. Crucially, instruction is dependent on knowing the student's capabilities and inner drives. To date, research on writing has yet to establish a consistent framework for assessing writing motivation, and often fails to acknowledge students' self-reports, rather favoring evaluations of…

It has been suggested for many years that students who are able to judge their own performance should do well in academic assessments. Despite the increasing number of empirical studies investigating the effect of self-assessment on academic performance, there has not been a recent synthesis of findings in the higher education context. The current…

Augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) is a core component of speech pathology practice. However, international literature has highlighted that speech language pathologists (SLPs) may not feel confident or competent in this area. Confidence and competence are critical factors in therapy as they can impact the quality-of-service…

Digital competence has gained a strong prominence in the educational context, being one of the key competencies that teachers must master in today's society. Although most models and frameworks focus on the pre-university level, there is a growing interest in knowing the state of digital competencies of university teachers, that is, the set of…

The Kaufman Domains of Creativity Scale (K-DOCS) is a self-reported rating scale that measures creative behaviors in five areas. Despite the vast amount of research on the scale, the internal consistency reliability of K-DOCS scores have not been examined. Specifically, there is no study on the overall reliability coefficients, the variation in…

During the last decade an eruptive increase in the demand for intelligent m-learning environments has been observed since instructors in the online academic procedures need to ensure reliability. The research for decision systems seemed inevitable for flexible and effective learning in all levels of education. The prediction of the performance of…
