Zhang, Feng; Jiang, Ying; Huang, Silin; Ming, Hua; Ren, Yi; Wang, Lei – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2021
The correlations between a low family socioeconomic status (SES) and adolescents' poor academic outcomes have been widely documented. However, the mechanisms through which family SES is associated with adolescents' academic achievement are not well understood. Therefore, this study examined the mediating roles of different types of parental…

Bialecka-Pikul, Marta; Bialek, Arkadiusz – Developmental Psychology, 2021
The dichotomy between explicit and implicit theory of mind remains controversial. This study proposed a developmental and social-constructionist perspective that challenges this notion through a model showing that coordination of perspectives (CoP) is a continuously developing ability in children. Our tested model comprises eight distinct…

Benitez-Galbraith, Jacqueline; Galbraith, Craig S. – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2021
Using authentic audio-visual material in early language classes has become commonplace, but little prior empirical research has been published regarding why this pedagogical technique is effective for some students, and not others. This study examines the process of engagement and transportation of beginning foreign language learners into an…

Gokpinar-Shelton, Esen; Pike, Gary R. – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
Learning communities are often associated with higher student engagement and academic achievement. Few studies to date, however, have examined the impacts of these practices among international students. To address this gap, the following questions led the current study: "To what degree is participation in learning communities associated with…

Helland, Siri Saugestad; Røysamb, Espen; Schjølberg, Synnve; Øksendal, Elise; Gustavson, Kristin – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Early language difficulties are associated with later internalizing problems across different ages and for different aspects of language. The mechanisms behind this association are, however, less understood. In the current study, we investigated longitudinal associations between language difficulties at 5 years and internalizing problems…

Zhang, Qiannan; Lin, Sheng; Liu, Jinlan; Zhang, Jingyi – College Teaching, 2022
The development of undergraduate students' soft skills is crucial because their chances to satisfactorily deal with the demands of various environments and interlocutors increases with the development of their soft skills. Based on the achievement goal theory, this study aimed to examine the role of the school environment in fostering students'…

Yean, Tan Fee; Johari, Johanim; Yahya, Khulida Kirana; Chin, Tay Lee – SAGE Open, 2022
The employee behavior literature is very much dominated by studies on "good" or "positive" behaviors, but relatively little has been researched on the negative attitudes and behaviors of people within the workplace, in particular, job dissatisfaction and counterproductive work behavior (CWB). Therefore, the present study is…

Kuddar, Cagla; Cetin, Sevda – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2022
The purpose of the study is to analyze the affective traits that affect mathematics achievement through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) as a traditional regression model and Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS), as one of the data mining methods. Structural Equation Modeling, one of the regression-based methods, is quite popular for…

Cain, Meghan K.; Zhang, Zhiyong – Grantee Submission, 2018
Despite its importance to structural equation modeling, model evaluation remains underdeveloped in the Bayesian SEM framework. Posterior predictive p-values (PPP) and deviance information criteria (DIC) are now available in popular software for Bayesian model evaluation, but they remain under-utilized. This is largely due to the lack of…

Mai, Yujiao; Zhang, Zhiyong; Wen, Zhonglin – Grantee Submission, 2018
Exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) is an approach for analysis of latent variables using exploratory factor analysis to evaluate the measurement model. This study compared ESEM with two dominant approaches for multiple regression with latent variables, structural equation modeling (SEM) and manifest regression analysis (MRA). Main…
