Results from a number of studies of human empathy are interpreted as demonstrating that young infants exhibit concern towards others who are suffering. Studies of empathy in young infants, however, often confound interest in intensity and ecologically valid stimuli with concern about others' suffering. Using a perceptually controlled design with…

Feedback drives creativity, yet how individuals benefit from it remains unclear. This study explored the cognitive and neural mechanisms through which interpersonal feedback promotes creativity. The fNIRS measured interpersonal neural synchronization (INS) during feedback, focusing on the prefrontal cortex and the right temporoparietal area.…

Teacher leaders (TLs) play a pivotal role in monitoring and fostering teacher awareness to enhance the quality of teaching practices, particularly in domains like mathematics education. Within the mathematics curriculum across various nations, this monitoring effort has been channelled towards nurturing crucial competencies such as argumentation…

Compared with the more physically fragile extremely/very preterm children (E/VPT), moderate-to-late preterm (MLPT) children--the large majority of preterm births--are underrepresented in research. This gap persists despite evidence that MLPT children exhibit more difficulties than full-term peers in certain domains. This scoping review surveys the…

This study tests a moderate mediation model and clarifies the mechanisms linking screen exposure to children's socioemotional competence. The objective is to examine if children's emotional ability mediates the relationship between screen exposure and socioemotional competence, and if parental media mediation moderates this pathway. Using…

Background: First-year engineering mathematics courses present a critical academic challenge, often leading to a significant decline in student self-efficacy, a key predictor of retention and success. While flipped learning is a proposed solution, a lack of longitudinal research using robust comparison groups has limited our understanding of its…

This article focuses on visual peer feedback and the idea process in visual arts education and how this process was shared digitally. In the study, sixth-grade students gave each other visual feedback on their sketches in an assignment in pictorial composition. Visual feedback is understood here as direct interaction with copies of the original…

This paper explores educators' use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) for their work. While educators might be more worried about their students farming out some of the tasks they are given to AI, there is an argument that educators ought to also be concerned about the damage done when they offload seemingly administrative or…

The purpose of this study was to generate an item bank for assessing faculty members' assessment literacy and to examine the applicability and feasibility of a Computerized Adaptive Test (CAT) approach to monitor assessment literacy among faculty members. In developing this assessment using a sequential mixed-methods research design, our goal was…

Experts have cautioned against the use of college student ratings of instruction (SRIs) in making high stakes decisions for faculty members, such as compensation and tenure, due to extraneous variables that bias student responses. This practice is especially pernicious for minoritized faculty members, with evidence to suggest student feedback to…

Purpose: Open innovation is a critical source of competitive differentiation within the hospitality industry. However, open innovation remains underexplored in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and there is a dearth of knowledge about open innovation processes and mechanisms in the hospitality industry. This study aims to address this lacuna by…

This study was carried out to examine picture books prepared for children in the 3-6 age group in terms of supporting emotion regulation skills. The sample group of the study consists of 113 domestic or translated children's picture books published in Türkiye between 2010 and 2022, selected using the criterion sampling method. The data were…

Previous research has shown that contingent vocal imitation has a reinforcing effect on vocalizations emitted by children. Nevertheless, the precise contingencies that have a reinforcing effect on vocalizations remain unclear. This study examined the effects of five conditions (contingent vocal imitation, contingent interaction, noncontingent…

Parents of children who have sleep difficulties often experience depression. Although complex, this relationship may be at least partially explained because the children of parents with depression are more likely to experience poor psychosocial functioning, which can negatively impact their sleep. Autistic children are particularly at risk for…

Parents play a substantial role in their children's emotion regulation (ER) abilities. Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often have difficulties regulating their emotions, which can manifest as externalizing behavioral issues. Parents of children with ASD facilitate their children's ER development in response to unique challenges and…
