Prospective memory (PM) tasks require remembering to perform a deferred action and can be associated with predictable contexts. We present a theory and computational model, prospective memory decision control (PMDC), of the cognitive processes by which context supports PM. Under control conditions, participants completed lexical decisions. Under…

Higher education dropout rates in Colombia are the second highest in Latin-America. Almost 50% of students who start an undergraduate program in Colombia drop out. In this paper, we present a systematic literature review that surveys publications related to university dropout in Colombia between 2000 and 2021. This review followed the Kitchenham…

Purpose: This study investigates how students' propensity towards indebtedness affects their savings behaviour. Additionally, the study examines the moderating role of financial literacy in the relationship between propensity towards indebtedness and savings behaviour. Design/methodology/approach: Questionnaires were administered to undergraduate…

In higher education, research courses are an integral part of all academic majors that intend to help students in becoming better readers and/or authors of research. However, there is a paucity in instruments that measure various constructs that are related to research education. The 13-item revised scale of attitudes toward research is one of the…

This study aims to explore the experiences of academics and students at undergraduate programmes at two schools of business, one in Australia and the other in Finland, regarding the process of research-based learning (RBL) and the accompanying development of students' skills. Employing an ethnographic case study method, data is collected through…

Different types of test items influence students' test anxiety, and physiological measures such as heart rate provide a means of measuring this anxiety. This study aimed to explore the connection between test anxiety and examination item formats. It centered on 20 junior university students in Western Türkiye. The research monitored students'…

Survey responses from 858 undergraduates were examined to determine the key factors affecting students' deep approach to learning at two public institutions. Principal component analysis was adopted to eliminate multicollinearity among factors and extract the key influencing factors. A robust multiple linear regression model was built to explore…

Student feedback literacy is emphasised in recent literature as a critical attribute of university graduates. Although the impacts of epistemic beliefs on specific dimensions of student feedback literacy have been discussed in the literature, there is still a lack of quantitative research to investigate the strength of such impacts. This study…

The earthquake, which affected the south and southeast of Turkey (approximately 10 provinces) on February 6, 2023, brought many devastating consequences. Earthquakes, which occur in all geographies of the world in variable time periods depending on the characteristics of the geological structure, cause many extraordinary situations and…

When embarking on our journey of learning in mathematics, we may envision a linear path of modules for acquiring mathematical knowledge and understanding to reach a predetermined outcome. However, this is a partial representation since the outcome and path are developing and adapting and our learning is continuously emerging. In this paper, our…

This study aims to prepare a scale to determine the creativity levels of prospective teachers studying at the undergraduate level of science teaching. In this context, 15 questions, suitable for student's level from physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy and ecology sub-branches were prepared. The questions were assessed by 5 lecturers who were…

The main purpose of this research was to do a confirmatory factor analysis of cyberbullying behaviors among undergraduate students in higher education institutions in northeastern Thailand. The sample included 1,062 1st-4th years bachelor's degree students in the academic year 2022 from five higher education institutions located in the Northeast…

This study aims to investigate factors affecting students' intention to join blended learning courses in higher education sector using Community of Inquiry framework and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) model was employed to develop a new research framework while constructs in the…

Background: Recognizing the relatively few studies that have explored university students' understanding and alternative conceptions in linear and circular motion as well as the relatively few studies that have used 2-dimensional multiple-choice questions (MCQs) in the science education literature, this study set out to contribute to these areas.…

Research on the relationship between learning approaches and variables such as the perceived impact of some university activities is limited. The present study proposes a reduced Student Process Questionnaire (SPQ) to relate learning approaches to high-impact educational practices (HIEPs). The sample consisted of 893 first and final-year…
