Potvin, Patrice – Studies in Science Education, 2023
This article presents a critical and systematic review of the science education research literature that explores the response of learners to contradicting information (anomalous data). The review is framed in the cognitive conflict process model (CCPM) and provides an analysis of (1) the types and frequency of possible responses, (2) the…

Ian Thomas Carle – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The purpose of this mixed methods study was to investigate the implementation of a researcher-created numberless word problem instructional unit designed to introduce second-grade students to word problems in the semantic category of "compare with the word more, smaller unknown." The 10-day instructional unit incorporated three elements:…

Kelly, Stephanie; Gaytan, Jorge; Morgan, Shona; Cundall, Michael K., Jr.; Foresman, Galen – Business and Professional Communication Quarterly, 2023
This study explored potential biases in professional writing evaluation. An experiment was conducted in which individuals with hiring authority or influence at their workplace evaluated an email with multiple grammatical/typographical mistakes requesting that the reader make time to speak with the author. Participants were randomly assigned into…

Bilge, Huzeyfe – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2023
Although the relationship between reading fluency and high-stakes test achievement is well known, studies were conducted in similar contexts. This correlational study aimed to investigate the relationship between reading error types (insertions, omissions, mispronunciations, and total) and reading fluency (rate, accuracy, and prosody) in narrative…

Prathiba Natesan Batley; Erica B. McClure; Brandy Brewer; Ateka A. Contractor; Nicholas John Batley; Larry Vernon Hedges; Stephanie Chin – Grantee Submission, 2023
N-of-1 trials, a special case of Single Case Experimental Designs (SCEDs), are prominent in clinical medical research and specifically psychiatry due to the growing significance of precision/personalized medicine. It is imperative that these clinical trials be conducted, and their data analyzed, using the highest standards to guard against threats…

Lampinen, James Michael; Race, Brittany; Wolf, Alexander P.; Phillips, Paulie; Moriarty, Nathalie; Smith, Andrew M. – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2020
It is generally agreed that proper pre-lineup instructions can reduce the rate of mistaken identifications of innocent suspects. However, the exact nature of these instructions has not been empirically established. We compared the effects of the detailed pre-lineup instructions recommended by the US Department of Justice to a simple instruction…

Yasar C. Kakdas; Sinan Kockara; Tansel Halic; Doga Demirel – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
This article presents a 3-D medical simulation that employs reinforcement learning (RL) and interactive RL (IRL) to teach and assess the procedure of donning and doffing personal protective equipment (PPE). The simulation is motivated by the need for effective, safe, and remote training techniques in medicine, particularly in light of the COVID-19…

James M. Kauffman; Jeanmarie Badar; Andrew L. Wiley; Dimitris Anastasiou; Jennifer Koran – Journal of Education, 2024
Uncertainty in education, both general and special, has long troubled educational researchers, reformers, and practitioners. Responding to students with special (atypical) educational needs is an example of decisions that are prone to error. Although some efforts to reduce uncertainty in education are reasonable and helpful, efforts to eliminate…

James Mahshie; Cynthia Core; Michael D. Larsen – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Despite the ability of cochlear implants (CIs) to provide children with access to speech, there is considerable variability in spoken language outcomes. Research aimed at identifying factors influencing speech production accuracy is needed. Aims: To characterize the consonant production accuracy of children with cochlear implants…

Fatimah Jeharsae; Yusop Boonsuk – rEFLections, 2024
Amid the abundance of studies on translation errors in Thailand, a scarcity remains especially within the multi-linguacultural context of Thailand's Deep South. To address this gap, this study aims to examine Thai-English and English-Thai translation errors encountered by 232 Thai EFL university students studying English in three universities…

Andi Harpeni Dewantara; Edi Istiyono; Heri Retnawati; Slamet Suyanto – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
The issue of students' difficulties in solving context-based mathematics problems has been extensively investigated by numerous studies. However, limited study focus on how pre-service primary school teacher (PSPSTs) encounter difficulties in solving context-based fundamental mathematics problems. To fill this gap, this study aims to investigate…

Katja Lenz; Frank Reinhold; Gerald Wittmann – Research in Mathematics Education, 2024
When learning about fractions, teaching usually follows certain topics -- e.g. part of the whole, fraction equivalence, and size comparison. Not yet answered is whether students' conceptual and procedural knowledge of fractions is coherent between those topics. To answer this question, we performed a latent profile analysis of data from N = 1005…
