Objective: To assess athletic trainers' (ATs) perceptions regarding the importance of athletes' beliefs and athletic department stakeholders in facilitating help-seeking for mental health (MH) care. Participants: 534 ATs within collegiate athletic departments (M[subscript age] = 35.50 years; 64.2% women; 87.3% White). Methods: ATs were asked to…

Background: Practice tests have been shown to be an effective means to foster long-term retention in higher education, at least compared to restudying (i.e., the testing effect). Objective: The present study replicated and extended prior research by examining whether and to what extent the positive effects of testing on long-term retention in a…

Many social innovation efforts are aimed at meeting social challenges presented by the aging of the population, yet older adults are often excluded from such efforts. The purpose of this case study was to examine an approach used in a midsized university in southeast North Carolina to create intergenerational opportunities for students, local…

This research study explored the systematic thinking modes underlying test anxiety in 706 engineering students through an experiment centred on the cognitive algebra paradigm. The participants had to read 36 experimental scenarios that narrated an imaginary academic assessment situation one by one and then judge the level of anxiety they…

Students no longer choose a lifelong career; thus, engaging students in career exploration advising when selecting a college major has payoffs for institutions and students. With nearly 40% of students never utilizing campus career development services, bringing career exploration into the classroom is necessary. This article introduces a series…

We design a commitment device for college students, "Study More Tomorrow," conduct a randomized controlled trial testing a model of its takeup, and measure its effect on tutoring attendance and grades. The device commits students to attend tutoring if their midterm grade falls below a prespecified threshold. Unlike other commitment…

Studies show that student-instructor rapport is correlated with student success in college courses (e.g., Lammers & Gillaspy, 2013). Less is known about the personality traits of students and their perceptions of instructors' personality traits that are associated with rapport. This study addressed this gap in the literature. In an online…

This article examines the racism and whiteness we felt attending a graduate course in the Fall of 2019. We revisit two moments of the course to highlight how academia is imbued with whiteness at a spatial and affectual level, exemplifying what we call "white affect." The first moment constitutes the official start of the course, the…

This article will present a case study on how game-based learning (GBL) -- a live quiz specifically, was used to support the teaching and learning in a social work practice educator program at a university in London. A GBL platform was used to create a live online quiz which was used as a tool to assess 50 trainee practice educators' (TPEs)…

This research aims to determine the learning effectiveness of offering basketball skills and a referee curriculum for college students. Studying basketball rules helps students practice standardized technical movements and understand the characteristics of basketball technology. While also assisting in the improvement of referee ability. Through…

Hip-hop music and culture have existed for decades in the United States. Since the 1970s, five critical elements have been defined as parts of hip-hop culture: the MC (oral), the DJ (aural), graffiti (visual), knowledge (mental), and breakdancing (physical). The existing literature connects each of these forms of hip-hop to the experiences of…

Purpose: This study aims to advance the understanding of service-learning within the context of Malaysian higher education, employing multiple qualitative approaches to source information relating to student perspectives whilst critically analysing findings through triangulation. The study explores how service-learning is conceptualized,…

The bourbon production engineering course offers a comprehensive overview of chemical engineering to non-engineers. It emphasizes chemical engineering concepts such as material balances and mass transfer, making these concepts accessible and engaging. Students learn through targeted lessons on each unit operation and practical examples from grain…

False alarming, or detecting an error when there is not one, is a pervasive problem across numerous industries. The present study investigated the role of elaboration, or additional information about non-error differences in complex visual displays, for mitigating false error responding. In Experiment 1, learners studied errors and non-error…

College students play a pivotal role in governance efforts in higher education. From student government and student associations to student regents and trustees, it is common for institutions--and systems--to engage students in the governance process (Lozano, 2020; Lozano & Hughes, 2017; May, 2010). This article highlights the noteworthy…
