Simon Zacharias Lahme; Jasper Ole Cirkel; Larissa Hahn; Julia Hofmann; Josefine Neuhaus; Susanne Schneider; Pascal Klein – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2024
The current dropout rate in physics studies in Germany is about 60%, with the majority of dropouts occurring in the first year. Consequently, the physics study entry phase poses a significant challenge for many students. Students' stress perceptions can provide more profound insights into the processes and challenges during that period. In a panel…

Gál, Éva; Tóth-Király, István; Szamosközi, István; Orosz, Gábor – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2023
The present research, by using cross-sectional (Study 1, N = 413) and daily diary methods (Study 2, N = 95) aimed to investigate the way intelligence mindset influences students' self-esteem and emotional experiences when they are confronting academic adversities (i.e., failures and difficulties). Although fixed intelligence mindset showed no…

El-Hassan, Hilal; Hamouda, Mohamed; El-Maaddawy, Tamer; Maraqa, Munjed – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2021
Curriculum-based exit exams play a crucial role in program assessment and measuring student achievement of program learning outcomes (PLOs). This study aims to examine the validity of using an internal exit exam as a direct assessment tool to evaluate student learning and attainment of PLOs. The validation entails evaluating and correlating…

Sanchez, Edgar I. – ACT, Inc., 2021
In this study, I examined several ecological factors at play when students make use of test preparation. I first looked at students' usage of test preparation and followed that with an examination of the relationship between family income and test preparation use. Finally, I examined familial support in preparing for admissions exams. Many…

Seymour, Clancy M.; Donnelly, James P.; Lindauer, Jeffrey R. – Physical Educator, 2018
An exploratory study was conducted to examine the perspectives of teacher candidates (TCs) and mentor teachers (MTs) of a clinically rich model (CRM) implemented within a physical education teacher education (PETE) program as compared to a traditional model (TM) of student teaching. Survey questions were focused on participant's perceptions of the…

Zhan, Ying; Wan, Zhi Hong – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2016
Test takers' beliefs or experiences have been overlooked in most validation studies in language education. Meanwhile, a mutual exclusion has been observed in the literature, with little or no dialogue between validation studies and studies concerning the uses and consequences of testing. To help fill these research gaps, a group of Senior III…
