Students' positive perceptions of teachers' caring behaviour have favourable outcomes, yet they have been little researched, especially in an Asian context. This study aims to establish a model explaining teachers' caring behaviour (TCB) by testing multiple indicators. The survey instrument was administered to 296 students, whose responses were…

The key objective of this study was to reveal the key factors that impact university students' continued usage intentions with respect to Learning Management Systems (LMSs). Given the context-dependent nature of e-learning, the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model was applied and extended with constructs principally…

Given the recent attention to language-domain-specific grit in the field of SLA and the scarcity of research on the antecedents of L2 grit, we proposed a model that links L2 learners' basic psychological needs (BPN) (i.e. autonomy, competence, and relatedness), L2 grit (i.e. perseverance of effort (PE) and consistency of interest (CI)), and L2…

The objective of this study is to ascertain the relative influences and predictive relationships between metacognitive listening strategies, critical listening attitudes and academic listening skills of Turkish teacher candidates. In consideration of the ease of accessibility and economic factors, the participants were selected through the…

Transfer beliefs are understudied in the training transfer field, whereas structural equation modelling (SEM) has been a widely used technique to study transfer models. New methodologies are needed to study training transfer and network analysis (NA) has emerged as a new approach that provides a visual representation of a given network. We…

Conceptually, although the effectiveness of communication is generally associated with the development of language skills, studies that model this relationship comprehensively are limited. Based on this, the current study examines the relationship between different linguistic variables (listening skills, attitude towards reading habits, speech…

This study aimed to investigate the relationships among computational thinking (CT) skills, science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) attitude, and thinking styles with the help of structural equation modeling and to determine to what extent the variables of STEM attitude and thinking styles explained CT skills. The study, conducted…

The aim of this study is to investigate the augmented reality (AR) immersion experiences of university students studying in science education. The relationship between interest, usability, emotional investment, focus of attention, presence and flow was examined for university students studying in the science education department who used AR…

Academic and practitioner interest in data science has increased considerably. Yet scholarly understanding of what motivates students to learn data science is still limited. Drawing on the theory of planned behavior, we propose a research model to examine the determinants of behavioral intentions to learn data science. In the proposed research…

Objective: To examine the effect of weight-conscious drinking and compensatory behavior temporality on binge drinking frequency of college freshmen. Participants: Freshmen (n = 1149) from eight US universities, Fall 2015. Methods: Participants completed the Compensatory Eating Behaviors in Response to Alcohol Consumption Scale and Alcohol Use…

In the post-pandemic period, as a result of digitally-surrounded learning environments in higher education institutions (HEIs), some obstacles are observed in learning procedures such as academic procrastination because of poor digital competences. Because of the limited research focusing on specifically digital competences and academic…

Interactions across campus have long been documented as an important component of understanding the college student experience. This is especially salient in relation to interactions with faculty and peers during a student's first year, when susceptibility for departure is high. However, it is likewise critical to understand how distinctive types…

This study aims to investigate the effects of middle school students' learning approaches and their attitudes towards mathematics on their engagement in mathematics course. The research cross-sectional survey design was used in the quantitative research model. The research was conducted with the participation of 5th-8th graders who attended…

This study explored the mediating role of mathematics anxiety in the relationship between TPACK competencies and mathematics teaching anxiety. This mediation role was tested through structural equation modeling using data from 426 pre-service mathematics teachers selected through criterion sampling. TPACK Competencies Scale, Mathematics Anxiety…

In this new era drenched with data, statistical literacy becomes more essential for individuals to be able to read, communicate, and make informed decisions. Moreover, statistical literacy is highly essential for education policy makers who are highly accountable for all policy outcomes including school improvement, resource allocation, curriculum…
