Jennifer Hill; George Perrett; Stacey A. Hancock; Le Win; Yoav Bergner – Grantee Submission, 2024
Most current statistics courses include some instruction relevant to causal inference. Whether this instruction is incorporated as material on randomized experiments or as an interpretation of associations measured by correlation or regression coefficients, the way in which this material is presented may have important implications for…

Stacia Dillin – ProQuest LLC, 2024
High school graduation represents a pivotal milestone with far-reaching implications for an individual's future in social, economic, professional, and personal spheres. Despite its significance, only approximately 85.5% of students in the United States successfully earn their diploma each year, with groups such as black, Hispanic, American…

Kirsty Dunnett; Anders Mattias Lundmark – International Journal of Science Education, 2024
'A lack of prior knowledge in the other discipline' is often given by geoscience instructors to explain why students struggle to apply knowledge from other disciplines to the Earth. We examine this assumption by considering the disciplinary crossing of buoyancy (physics) to isostasy (geoscience). We investigate the teachers' perspective through…

Krebs, Marie-Christin; Schüler, Anne; Scheiter, Katharina – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2021
We investigated in an experiment with 180 university students the joint role of prior knowledge, alleged model competence, and social comparison orientation regarding the effectiveness of Eye Movement Modeling Examples (EMME) for supporting multimedia learning. EMME consisted of short videos with gaze replays of an instructed model demonstrating…

Marks, Gary N. – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2021
Recently in this journal, Sciffer, Perry, and McConney (2020) argued that school socioeconomic-background (SES) compositional effects are important for both research and policy. In response, this commentary argues that realistic school SES effects can only be identified in properly specified models. Otherwise, the estimated school effects are very…

Rehrig, Gwendolyn L.; Cheng, Michelle; McMahan, Brian C.; Shome, Rahul – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
A major problem in human cognition is to understand how newly acquired information and long-standing beliefs about the environment combine to make decisions and plan behaviors. Over-dependence on long-standing beliefs may be a significant source of suboptimal decision-making in unusual circumstances. While the contribution of long-standing beliefs…

Liaw, Hongming; Yu, Yuh-Ru; Chou, Chin-Cheng; Chiu, Mei-Hung – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
Kinematics is an important but challenging area in physics. In previously published works of the current research project, it was revealed that there is a significant relationship between facial microexpression states (FMES) changes and conceptual conflict-induced conceptual change. Consequently, the current study integrated FMES into a kinematics…
