Many dimensions of teacher working conditions influence both teacher and student outcomes; yet, analyses of schools' overall working conditions are challenged by high correlations among the dimensions. Our study overcame this challenge by applying latent profile analysis to school-level measures of school leadership, instructional agency,…

Accurately assessing students' self-regulated learning remains a persistent challenge due to the construct's complexity and the limitations of individual measurement methods. This study explores the reliability and meaningfulness of assessing upper-secondary students' SRL in English as a Foreign Language classrooms using a convergent triangulation…

Academic entitlement (AE), which includes some students' tendencies to express deservingness of academic outcomes, not based on achievement, may have serious implications, such as academic dishonesty and classroom incivility. Some researchers have suggested that there may be different types of students with regard to AE, implying that motives for…

Students usually procrastinate, which might increase anxiety levels and decrease test scores. Previous studies used between-groups comparisons to explore ways to deter procrastination, a design that did not allow analyses of individual procrastination patterns. In the present two studies, college students' individual self-regulation and…

The field of learning analytics has been limited by its frequent dependence on learning logs created by students while learning. Most of the research has dealt with the relationships between learning during a course and the achieved results.
