Prior research has demonstrated that students' performance on physics test items can be accurately predicted using machine learning algorithms based on their gaze behavior. These gaze data are typically recorded during item completion and capture students' visual attention to both the verbal item stem and accompanying visual representations, such…

Implicit stereotypes about gender and STEM may unconsciously shape students' academic choices and contribute to gender gaps in major choice, but there is limited economic evidence on this channel. To study this relationship, we administer a gender-science Implicit Association Test (IAT) to a sample of primarily first-semester undergraduates, and…

Academic stress is a worldwide issue that impacts adolescent students and their educators. While educators may assist students in managing academic stress, they must first recognize students' feelings of academic stress. Consequently, both recognizing and addressing academic stress were considered in this study. The theoretical framework consisted…

Analyzing 28 articles from databases including WOS, Scopus, and ProQuest, this systematic review investigates the application of Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory in education. It reveals a sustained scholarly interest in cultural dimensions with substantial contributions from scholars in China, Japan, Israel, and the UK. The study focuses on…

Much attention has been given to the academic performance of "disrupted learners," children whose schooling was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic (Turner & Carillo, 2024). An area in need of further research is the impact this disruption had on student behavior and the implications for early childhood educators so they can…

Developing collaboration skills is essential in university engineering classrooms, yet fostering in-depth collaborative discussions remains a challenge. This study introduced individual preparation (IP) as a pedagogical design and examined its role in students' collaborative learning outcomes and processes. Eighty-two engineering students from a…

In Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs), teachers usually organize the sequence of course contents and activities according to their didactic-pedagogical strategies, expecting to guide each student in his learning path. However, usually, each student follows a specific path based on his actions. VLEs typically record student interaction with…

Middle schools bring considerable change for students, which can intensify risk for adverse middle school student experiences and performance. Yet, implementation of positive and proactive classroom-level strategies can improve student outcomes. However, middle school teachers may not have the repertoire to systemically implement such…

Purpose: The main goal of this work is to argue the theoretical validity of two competitive models that integrate entrepreneurial alertness in the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), and also to propose an explanation for the conceptual approach with a higher explicative ability. Design/Methodology/Approach: A total of 281 undergraduate students…

Functional assessments, while considered the "gold standard" for behavioral assessments, are not often implemented in school settings due the extensive amount of time, resources, and expertise required. The interview-informed synthesized contingency analysis (IISCA), is a timely, comprehensive, and accurate method for conducting such…

The authors assert that the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) model and its companion documents provide school counselors with a comprehensive framework for intervening to prevent violence. This article is a brief overview of the model, the competencies, and the standards, which are used as theoretical lenses for addressing gun violence…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of stress on alcohol consumption and other avoidant coping strategies among college students. Two affective variables that may serve as risk factors underlying problem drinking and other avoidant coping styles are distress tolerance (DT) and anxiety sensitivity (AS). Additionally, two…

This study analyzes the predictive factors influencing the entrepreneurial intentions of students at higher education institutions (HEIs) in a peripheral European region. The study includes a sample of 594 students and uses structural equation models for data analysis. The results show that the attitude to behavior and perceived behavioral control…

Research Findings: The goal of this longitudinal study was to examine persistence development during the transition to school. The sample consisted of N = 88 children from Caucasian, middle-class families (51% female). Participants were recruited through advertisement in public kindergartens and were tested twice, in kindergarten (mean…

A number of resources are available for evaluating the rigor of single-case designs, including the commonly used multiple baseline design. In this article, we discuss two characteristics commonly cited as necessary for the highest rigor in multiple baseline designs--concurrence and response-guided baseline condition duration. We suggest that both…
