Early childhood aggression is a ubiquitous and developmentally normal behavior; however, different report sources (e.g., child self-report vs. teacher) often yield markedly different interpretations.

Kristian Edosomwan; John A. Williams III – School Science and Mathematics, 2024
Research has proven that when students are tracked and experience some form of exclusionary discipline, their risk of dropping out of school increases significantly.

H. Jones – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Autistic individuals experience higher rates of externalising and internalising symptoms that may vary with environmental factors. However, there is limited research on variation across settings that may highlight common factors with globally generalisable effects. Data were taken from two cohorts: a multinational European sample (n = 764; 453…

Spencer, George; Stich, Amy – Research in Higher Education, 2023
Despite a robust body of literature about the choice of students' first postsecondary institution, we have little insight regarding transfer from four-year colleges and universities across socioeconomic groups. In this study, we argue that when entry to selective colleges reaches a heightened level of competitiveness, transfer may be employed by…

McIntyre, Kari Lillian – ProQuest LLC, 2023
As educators are becoming more aware of the mental health needs of young adults, and the impact of trauma and poverty on student learning and development, there is an increased need for different pedagogical approaches that view the student holistically in the classroom.

Many students in Germany enter higher education with a vocational qualification and prior vocational qualifications occur more often among students from…
