Multicultural competence is a required part of the 2016 CACREP (Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs) Standards, but disability lacks equitable inclusion in…

Everyday we're problem solving--but deep down we know the system is no longer working. Do we just keep trying harder, or do we dare to transform how we "do school?" In "The Drivers: Transforming Learning for Students, Schools, and Systems," renowned authors Michael Fullan and Joanne Quinn build on their previous books and lay…

Active learning strategies engage students and promote student-centered learning environments. Implementing active learning in a HyFlex environment during the Fall of 2020 global pandemic was challenging. We describe the "Interactive Synchronous HyFlex" approach to teaching design thinking at the introductory college level and explore…

The Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills (PEERS) social skills intervention has demonstrated effectiveness for adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Although job seekers often rely on indirect or inaccurate information to assess the attractiveness of potential employers, internship experience provides more realistic and accurate information, which may influence organizational attractiveness. Through the ex-ante and ex-post (i.e., pre-internship and post-internship) research design with a…

Current research highlights the need for trauma-informed care within schools, yet the literature suggests that many practicing school psychologists feel underprepared to engage in such practices. Very few studies have examined the preparedness of school psychology graduate students to engage in trauma-informed care practices. This is unfortunate,…

In this cross-sectional study, we examine the relationship between social skills and resilience and the moderating effects of time spent in a refugee camp, parental education, and schooling on Syrian children who have been forcibly displaced to Turkey. Five hundred and twenty-six preschool-aged children (56.3% female, M[subscript age] = 5.79) were…

Climate change increases the risk of natural disasters, which requires the design of sustainable and resilient infrastructure. This implies a need to enable engineering students to deal with highly complex problems and uncertainty. These competencies refer to the concept of resilience, describing the ability of a system to adapt to threatening…

Many autistics report being distressed by eye contact, but eye-tracking studies suggest that eye contact is associated with hypo-arousal rather than hyper-arousal in autism. Within a live face-to-face paradigm combining a wearable eye-tracker with electrodermal activity sensors, 80 adults (40 autistics) defined words in front of an experimenter…

Recent discussions on student feedback literacy have been primarily conceptual and framed from the perspectives of scholars and educators.

In Scandinavia, as in many other countries, child and youth sport is mainly organised in non-profit, membership-based and voluntary driven sports clubs. In Sweden, this model is now challenged by commercial businesses providing child and youth sport services. The overall aim of…

Psychological factors may play an important role in interpreting performance and its development during training; meanwhile, the development of interpreting competence may influence psychological factors reactively. We conducted two studies to assess the bidirectional relationship between three psychological factors (self-efficacy, motivation, and…
