Researchers have been investigating student dropout, and possible reasons leading to it, for quite a long time. Cumulatively, the results of these research attempts show that drop out of students depends on several factors, of which only a relatively small number can directly be dealt with by universities. Therefore, the overall research problem…

Verbal deception detection has gained momentum as a technique to tell truth-tellers from liars. At the same time, researchers' degrees of freedom make it hard to assess the robustness of effects. Replication research can help evaluate how reproducible an effect is. We present the first replication in verbal deception research whereby ferry…

We provide evidence to substantiate the learning potential of eportfolios by focusing on instructor variables that influence eportfolio learning experiences. We conducted a mixed-methods study of over 800 students across 30 courses. Using survey, interview, and focus group data, we argue that instructors' approaches to eportfolio activities play a…

In this article, we describe the philosophical and the scientific background of teacher mindframes and we argue that educational professionalism consists not only of ability and knowledge (competence), but also of will and judgement (attitudes). To back up our argument, we present the results of our current research project on this matter.

Effortful control and intentional self-regulation are two constructs associated with children's and adolescent self-regulation that have historically been the subject of research in separate fields, where temperament research has primarily focused on effortful control, and positive development research has focused on intentional self-regulation.…

Background: Increasing lay responder cardiopulmonary resuscitation and automated external defibrillator use during sudden cardiac arrest depends on an individual's choice. Investigators designed and piloted an instrument to measure the affective domain of helping behaviors by applying the theory of planned behavior (TPB) to better understand lay…

With the spread of learning analytics (LA) dashboards in K-12 schools, educators are increasingly expected to make sense of data to inform instruction. However, numerous features of school settings, such as specialized vantage points of educators, may lead to different ways of looking at data. This observation motivates the need to carefully…

The purpose of this research is to provide empirical evidence of the influence of perceived usefulness, convenience, experience, gender, and age on the intention to use e-learning after the government's school closure policy due to the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.

To examine the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic, which was viewed through the lens of precipitating events, on the intention--behaviour…

We explore the socio-ecological effects of meat consumption by assessing the impact of a didactical intervention. We focused on meat consumers' profiles, their willingness to engage in pro-environmental actions and the allocation of responsibility for environmental issues. Using pretest-posttest-control methodology, a group of future…

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effect of university atmosphere, macroeconomic environment and business support on students' entrepreneurial intention. Moreover, it explores whether country moderates these relationships or not. Design/methodology/approach: This research is administered on individual-level data collection through survey…

This article examines the consequences of routine mobile devices usage tendency in the TPACK-based classroom with the aim of improving academic performance. Findings from the primary data analysis with students and prospective graduates with teaching intention in future (n = 313) in China indicate that the regular usage tendency of mobile devices…
