The interplay between mental health and academic behaviours has been understudied. This study examined the relationship between foundational academic behaviours (e.g., attending class and meeting assignment deadlines), student mental health and well-being, and academic performance. Participants consisted of 229 students (52.6% female) who…

Sustainable service-led universities actively promote sustainability initiatives and service provision. In this context, servant leadership is relevant for higher education, since it ensures sustainable performance over time, encourages the idea of serving stakeholders (e.g., students, staff, and beyond), and is in alignment with the concept of…

This research with two studies examined whether young children's moral judgments of honesty and dishonesty predict their actual cheating behavior. Participants were 200 children aged 3-6 years (2021-2022. Study 1: N = 80, M[subscript age] = 4.96, 40 girls; Study 2: N = 120, M[subscript age] = 4.98, 60 girls; all middle-class Han Chinese). Children…

Although the "eye-mind link" hypothesis posits that eye movements provide a direct window into cognitive processing, linking eye movements to specific cognitions in real-world settings remains challenging. This challenge may arise because gaze metrics such as fixation duration, pupil size, and saccade amplitude are often aggregated…

Recent work indicates clinically meaningful differences in domains of psychopathic personality -- such as grandiose-manipulative (GM), callous-unemotional (CU), and daring-impulsive (DI) traits -- and parenting factors. Yet, different domains of parenting and reports from multiple informants may vary in their associations to psychopathic traits.…

As technology rapidly evolves, generative AI tools are increasingly integrated across various fields, including education. ChatGPT, a well-known language model developed by OpenAI, has gained significant importance in educational settings. This study employed a quantitative, cross-sectional survey design and employed the Unified Theory of…

Research ethics is considered an important element in academia, concerning the behavior of researchers in promoting scientific integrity. This study aims to survey scientific integrity of researchers in scholarly publishing across 16 global and frontier research universities in Thailand. The quantitative method was used to collect data from…

As educators who provide support to individuals with ASD, our primary goal should be to teach the skills necessary to live as independently as possible. As critically important as these skills are, teaching independent living skills can sometimes be challenging when motivation is low. These issues become even more complicated as individuals get…

Children with autism spectrum disorder often exhibit difficulties in social communication and interaction. Those who do not acquire functional communication to effectively express wants and needs often are at a higher risk of displaying challenging behaviors. Mand training is recognized as an evidence-based intervention for teaching communication…

This paper attempts to investigate various facets of the multi-layered dynamics of open-book exams, from student perceptions, preferences, academic performance and satisfaction, to the highly relevant issue of academic integrity. Unfortunately, despite some controversies regarding academic integrity and the repercussions of open-book exams, very…

Behavioral skills training (BST) delivered synchronously via telecommunication (telehealth) has been shown to be effective for training mediators supporting children with autism. A limitation in the literature is that many published training protocols are evaluated under analogue or highly controlled conditions; therefore, further evaluation is…

Background: Collaborative problem-solving (CPS), encompassing social and cognitive domains, is recognised as a critical competency for current and future learners. While the cognitive domain, rooted in individual problem-solving, is relatively well understood, the social domain, manifested through social interaction, remains a challenge,…

Cassam (2023) argued in this journal that vice-charging -- the practice of charging others with epistemic vices such as gullibility and dogmatism -- can itself be epistemically vicious. He focused, in particular, on charges of gullibility and dogmatism directed at parents hesitant to allow their kids to be vaccinated with the MMR vaccine. In this…

Despite the acknowledged importance of effective leadership in driving school improvement and enhancing student outcomes, limited empirical research focuses specifically on teachers' perceptions of leadership behaviour in the Ada East District (AED). This study aimed to explore teacher perceptions of leadership behaviours in basic schools in the…

Naptime practices of early childhood education and care (ECEC) have been found to place children's bodies under adult governance, leaving children few possibilities for agency and influence (e.g. Kuukka 2015; Nothard et al. 2015). In this study, we explore children's (aged five to seven) accounts of naptime in ECEC, asking how children's bodily…
