Purpose: This study investigated whether family-school conflict, directly and indirectly, predicts behavioral regulatory strategies (via emotion regulation) among women in higher education. The authors aim to hypothesize that the direct and indirect effects would vary by race/ethnicity. Design/methodology/approach: Participants were 1,872 incoming…

Because sequential patterns of multiple transition events (i.e., college graduation, full-time employment, marriage, and parenthood) are associated with turning points in depressive symptom trajectories during young adulthood, the present study used a sample of 446 White adolescents (52.3% females; 15.58 years old, on average) over 18 years (1992…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of cognitive training (CT) using mobile applications on attentional control and impulsivity among pre-service teachers. Pre-service teachers were divided into two groups: experimental (n=25) and control (n=14) groups, they were selected from a large sample (n=718). Over 28 sessions, the…

Design thinking is emerging as a popular student-centric teaching approach in Nepal. However, limited research has been done to understand how teachers feel about using these approaches in their classrooms. In-depth interviews with five design-thinking teachers revealed that cultural context plays a crucial role when new teaching approaches are…

Published accounts of school interventions often focus on a small 'slice' of the complex systems and layers of learning across schools and homes. A series of studies into a digital intervention in low SES schools, is summarised here providing a fuller picture of how students' engagement in digital contexts contributed to their social and emotional…

The current study added to the growing literature on school-based dialectical behavior therapy (SB-DBT) by examining the implementation of a SB-DBT intervention with high school students. It was hypothesized that students' perceived emotion regulation and adaptive coping would improve whereas reports of dysfunctional coping would decrease from…

Few studies exist studying the implementation of a mindfulness program among high school students with disabilities. This study examined outcomes from the implementation of a 6-week "Learning to BREATHE" program, which is a mindfulness-based program for adolescents. This study explores behavioral problems, self-efficacy, self-regulation,…

Self-regulatory efficacy (SRE) among elementary school children is of interest because pupils' self-regulation capacities and SRE influence in managing learning situations. This study investigated variations in the four sources of SRE and how these variations were related to SRE, reading skills and arithmetic skills. The participants were 1284…

Children develop and learn within dynamic contexts, yet the simplifying assumptions of common statistical methods often relegate such complexity to unexplained error. This chapter discusses ideas from the dynamic systems literature, which focuses on the interplay within and between components of complex systems, such as individuals and their…

Sexting is recognized as a common public issue as well as a prominent issue among researchers. Authors usually define sexting as sending, receiving, or forwarding sexually explicit messages or nude, partially nude, or sexually suggestive digital images of one's self or others via a cell phone, e-mail, Internet, or Social Networking Service (Brown,…

A feeling of connection with a physical setting can have important psychological consequences for occupants. Although research has begun to explore how the design of student housing can improve the experiences of undergraduates, the students themselves have the capacity to adapt their environments in ways that better reflect their own values,…

The pandemic has provoked disruptions in students' lives and studies worldwide, which has caused them to feel moderate to high levels of anxiety and stress. Universities have responded by offering online counseling and communicating self-help recommendations via their websites. Curiously, the role that professors could play to reduce this…

This research aims to investigate the most frequent challenging behaviors faced by preschool teachers in their classrooms and the strategies and discipline approaches they adopt against these challenging behaviors. This research is conducted within case study design, which is a qualitative research method. The study group consists of 10 different…

This study measures students' unintentional procrastination, as captured by 'the number of days delayed,' or 'delay.' 'Delay' is the difference between the day that a student indicated that he or she would work on a homework assignment, and the day that he or she actually worked on that assignment as recorded by Blackboard. Regression results…

The aim of this study was to determine the factors predicting student engagement. The sample of the study consisted of 527 students from Karabuk University Distance Education Center. Independent variables of the study were e-learning style and online learning readiness. The data were analyzed using the stepwise multiple regression analysis. The…
