This publication addresses a gap in high-quality, quantitative studies on teacher resilience within the less-researched context of the Global South. Specifically, it examines the self-efficacy and teacher efficacy of three cohorts of final-year pre-service teachers in South Africa (N = 1,193). This article aimed to contribute evidence on teacher…

Gamification, using game elements in nongame contexts, is widely recognized for its efficacy in training individuals within organizational and academic environments. Specifically, it has gained significant attention in training to operate complex systems like enterprise resource planning (ERP). However, research has generally overlooked how…

The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly impacted higher education (HE) globally, causing students to feel disconnected and burdened with online learning. In response, many institutions have adopted a hybrid approach to teaching and learning (T-L) to mitigate future outbreaks. However, the impact of hybrid T-L on students' experiences remains…

This study presents the Cebeci Test of Creativity (CTC), a novel computerized assessment tool designed to address the limitations of traditional open-ended paper-and-pencil creativity tests. The CTC is designed to overcome the challenges associated with the administration and manual scoring of traditional paper and pencil creativity tests. In this…

Considering the interdisciplinary nature of the sustainable development concept, this study aims to investigate the effect of a cross-curricular mathematical modeling course on pre-service teachers' sustainable development attitudes and mathematical modeling self-efficacies and to investigate their opinions about the course. The sample for this…

This study explores the structure of stress mindsets within academic contexts and examines their associations with academic-related emotional (academic anxiety, school burnout) and behavioral (self-handicapping, proactive, and challenge-seeking behaviors) outcomes among Chinese adolescent students. Results supported a two-factor model of academic…

Aim/Purpose: Flipped learning, in which students engage with instructional content before class and participate in active learning during class time, has emerged as an innovative teaching approach. While previous research has explored various aspects of flipped learning, its impact on student self-efficacy across different contexts remains…

Introduction: Educators express a keen interest in academic engagement; however, there exists a paucity of research examining the intricate interplay among academic engagement, mindset, and academic hope. This study endeavors to address this gap by investigating university students and soliciting their responses through instruments gauging…

Background: A common approach to assessing students' integrated understanding of multiple documents is to analyse their post-reading written reports. This study investigated to what extent writing self-efficacy directly and indirectly (via integrative processing) contributed to multiple-document comprehension as assessed with an integrative…

A research model based on the presage-process-product theoretical framework was constructed to explore the relationship between STEM learning self-efficacy, perception of challenging learning environments, goal orientation (learning goal orientation and performance goal orientation), and entrepreneurial self-efficacy in students. Data were…

The relationship among three writing motivation and affective constructs (writing self-efficacy, perceived value of writing, and writing apprehension) and writing performance was examined among 273 Chinese fourth graders. The structural equation modelling results showed that the direct path from writing apprehension to writing performance was…

Objective: This study investigated correlations between college students' intentions to adopt COVID-19 prevention behaviors (i.e., handwashing, mask wearing, and social distancing) and their attitudes, perceived norms, perceived efficacy, and information seeking. Participants: Students (N = 326) from a large Midwestern university recruited via…

This study quantitatively identifies the mediating aspect of self-efficacy in the connection between technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) and artificial intelligence (AI) adoption intention towards educators in Indonesia. Data were collected via online surveys using adapted questionnaires, and respondents were selected using…

In Cambodia, students with disabilities remain marginalized and excluded from regular education settings, leading to low attendance and primary education completion rates. These challenges highlight critical concerns about teachers' inclusive practices. This study utilized the Theory of Planned Behavior to explore how teachers' attitudes…

Purpose: This study investigated the influence of teachers on undergraduate students' development of research aspirations and the mechanisms behind this process. Design/methodology/approach: Employing social cognitive career theory, the study gathered data from 232 undergraduates, developed a structural equation model via the maximum likelihood…
