Social adjustment to college can be challenging, and social networking sites (SNSs) may ease the process. SNSs as an adjustment tool may be particularly useful for those who have relatively limited social support in their proximal environments, such as first-generation college students. This study explored how first-generation and continuing…

Learning or lecturing, which are an essential part of the education process, are often presented only by cramming the teaching materials' contents to students but defying values.

Despite increasing scholarly interest in tertiary student perceptions of plagiarism, very little is known about those held by postgraduate (PG) students, although differences between undergraduate (UG) and PG students relate to both their characteristics and the demands of their studies. Furthermore, there is a dearth of research within the…

Teachers'perceptions of their students affect the way they provide opportunities and support for learning. Given that Lebanon has no specific policy or formal school practices for gifted students, it is important to understand what factors might affect education provision to such students.

Previous computational simulations and artificial literacy learning experiments with adults have demonstrated lower accuracy in reading "contrastive" words for which dialect variants…

Eight experiments (N = 2,003) assessed the relation between working memory capacity (WMC) and performance on the antisaccade task. Experiments 1-5 and 7 examined individual differences in aspects of goal management processes occurring during the preparatory delay of the antisaccade task. WMC tended to interact with delay interval suggesting that…
