Purpose: The Arabic verb system features a nonlinear root and pattern derivational morphology. Previous studies suggest that young Arabic and Hebrew speakers' early verb use is based on semantic complexity rather than derivational morphological structure. The present study examines the role of morphological and semantic complexity in the emergence…

Purpose: The current study examines bilingual children's development of Spanish and English morphosyntax structures over the period of 1 year. Identification of morphosyntax forms clustered by difficulty can elucidate their development and guide clinicians to select appropriate targets for intervention and monitoring.

This study investigated the development of educational aspirations (EAs) among Chinese youth (n = 2228, 48.61% female, 87.66% Han, M[subscript age_2010] = 11.48 years) for 6 years. Five latent classes of EA trajectories were identified. They varied greatly during early adolescence but converged around an associate degree in middle adolescence and…

As artificial intelligence [AI] increasingly permeates various sectors--including education, economics, healthcare, and government--a comprehensive understanding of this technology becomes essential. This analysis aims to identify four dimensions of AI literacy--awareness, usage, evaluation, and ethics--among Indonesian higher education students…

The prevalence of disability diagnoses among young children has risen significantly over recent decades. This growth has prompted inquiries into the identification processes, notably focusing on teachers who are the primary sources of referrals. While some studies have examined child age as a relevant predictor of disability referral, minimal…

Purpose: This paper seeks to explore the manner in which secondary vocational education in agriculture can facilitate "unlearning" among young farmers. In this context, 'unlearning' means deliberately letting go of mindsets, practices, and routines that are no longer fit for purpose. Design/Methodology/Approach: We use a course on…

Pain and cannabis use are highly prevalent among emerging adults but research regarding how pain is associated with cannabis-related expectancies is limited. Emerging adults who reported past three-month cannabis use (N = 173) were recruited through an online sampling platform. Participants completed the Graded Chronic Pain Scale, Cannabis Use…

Introduction: Economic inequality is rising around the globe. Social class includes income, education, and occupation, and is strongly tied to academic achievement. However, we do not yet know how the discrimination that adolescents experience because of their social class is associated with academic achievement. To address this knowledge gap, we…

A sample of 2,748 adolescents aged 10 to 18 years (47.2% female; 99.1% Han ethnicity) from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds in China completed the Belief in a Just World Scale and the Socioeconomic Status Survey.…

Introduction: The effect of time in college on student mental health is not as well-explored as cohort effects. The present study used 7 years of longitudinal mental health data to disentangle the effect of time in college from broader cohort-based effects. Methods: 8585 emerging adult students from two US colleges (mean age 19.58 ± 1.44, 54.16%…

This study explores the micro-determinants of corruption tolerance among 1414 university students in Guatemala, a country grappling with significant corruption issues. By examining the attitudes of economics majors compared to students in other disciplines through ordered logistic regression analysis, we offer new insights into factors influencing…

It is…

Individual differences in mathematical skills emerge early and are influenced by a range of cognitive and environmental factors. One of these is the Home Mathematics Environment (HME), which includes adult-child mathematics talk. Nevertheless, large variations in methods used to investigate and code adult-child mathematics talk exist. We conducted…

This study presents a framework for understanding the factors influencing graduate students' online learning readiness using a modified Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. A quantitative research method was adopted with data collected from 3,120 graduate students at the University of Ibadan. Structural Equation…

Background/purpose: Superstitious beliefs are culturally ingrained irrational ideas that can influence how individuals perceive and behave, particularly in times of uncertainty.
