Although teacher social-emotional competence (SEC) has been recognized as a crucial indicator of teacher professional development as well as an effective predictor of their psychological well-being, little is known about how teachers' SEC contributes to job burnout. The objectives of the present research were to explore the impact of SEC on job…

In the current study, using self-determination theory as a theoretical framework, we used multiple real-time assessments to investigate the dichotomous relationship between autonomy need satisfaction and frustration, and how these constituents underpin student functioning among higher education students during a learning activity. In total, 124…

This study aims to investigate the factors influencing teachers' intentions to integrate Virtual Reality (VR) technology into their educational practices, utilising the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT-2) framework. The research involved adapting and validating the 'Acceptance of Mobile Immersive Virtual Reality in…

This study explores structural relations among learning environment, achievement goals and reading achievement in China. The sample contains 12,058 Chinese students from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2018 study. Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling (Multilevel SEM) is used for data analysis. The results indicate that…

The standard view on Theory of Mind (ToM) is that the mastery of the false belief (FB) task around age 4 marks the ontogenetic emergence of full-fledged meta-representational ToM. Recently, a puzzling finding has emerged: Once children master the FB task, they begin to fail true belief (TB) control tasks. This finding threatens the validity of FB…

This study builds on the increasing relevance of technology integration in higher education, specifically in artificial intelligence (AI) usage in educational contexts. Background research highlights the limited exploration of AI training in educational programs, particularly within Latin America. AI has become increasingly pivotal in educational…

Mathematical literacy is becoming increasingly important and needs to be developed. However, various factors can affect students with different mathematical literacy patterns. This study aims to investigate the effects of students' backgrounds, attitudes toward mathematics, and information and communication technology (ICT) familiarity on the…

This study addresses the necessity of comprehending the remote learning environment for improving online course design and delivery. The primary objective is to investigate the impact of teaching, cognitive, and social presence, along with learner motivation from the Community of Inquiry framework, on students' learning satisfaction in both…

Pupils' subject choices at the level of secondary education critically determine the tertiary fields of study that they can pursue. This study used multinomial logistic regression models to investigate the extent to which the final report card grades of ninth-grade students predicted their choices of subject combinations at the senior general…

Growth-to-standard models evaluate student growth against the growth needed to reach a future standard or target of interest, such as proficiency. A common growth-to-standard model involves comparing the popular Student Growth Percentile (SGP) to Adequate Growth Percentiles (AGPs). AGPs follow from an involved process based on fitting a series of…

Since the reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 2004, U.S. state IDEA programs have been required to report annually on a set of performance indicators. Indicator 8 of the Part B State Performance Plan is the "percent of parents who report that schools facilitated parent involvement as a means of…

Purpose: Although children with developmental language disorder (DLD) are known to have difficulties with emergent literacy skills, few available studies have examined emergent literacy skills in Arabic-speaking children with DLD. Even though Arabic language characteristics, such as diglossia and orthographic structure, influence the acquisition…

While previous research has shown that social class is positively correlated with career decision self-efficacy (CDSE), how this relationship develops is unclear. This study tested the mediating effect of career social support on the link between subjective social class and CDSE and the moderating role of birthplace in the mediation model. A…

In this study, we examined demographic patterns of participation and persistence in high school elective music ensembles. We extend prior research that has only compared music and non-music students by explicitly modeling persistence across multiple years of ensemble enrollment. The research draws on data from the High School Longitudinal Study of…

A strong predictor of children's language is performance on non-word repetition (NWR) tasks. However, the basis of this relationship remains unknown. Some suggest that NWR tasks measure phonological working memory, which then affects language growth. Others argue that children's knowledge of language/language experience affects NWR performance. A…
