Many educators struggle to deal with challenging behavior from students diagnosed with one or more emotional disorders, often including oppositional defiant disorder, autism spectrum disorder, and attention deficit disorder. Any combination of these disabilities can make learning challenging for the students and make classroom management even more…

In this methodological paper, I present an enactivist approach to study how a student becomes coherently aware within a mathematics classroom, observing on the basis of my own observations of the learning of the students, acknowledging myself as part of the context, engaging with features of what I am seeing, demonstrating how through the…

Further research is needed on strategies to improve employment outcomes for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We replicated and extended prior research by examining the acquisition, maintenance, and generalization of discrete-trial training (DTT) performance of adults with ASD who were interested in careers as behavior technicians.…

While there is now extensive research on informal feedback seeking behaviour by employees in organisations, this literature has received limited attention in higher education. This paper addresses the gap between the two fields of feedback literacy and feedback seeking behaviour. Key organisational feedback seeking behaviour concepts including…

In this review, we summarized and meta-analyzed 35 single-case intervention studies that involved the use of multiple schedules of reinforcement with 78 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Based on Tau-U calculations, multiple schedules of reinforcement produced an overall large effect for appropriate communicative…

Teachers become rapidly more effective during the early years of their career but tend to improve increasingly slowly thereafter. This article reviews and synthesises converging evidence from neuroscience, psychology, economics and education suggesting that teachers' rate of growth slows because their practice becomes habitual. First, we review…

The dopamine system has been implicated in decision-making particularly when associated with effortful behavior. We examined acute optogenetic stimulation of dopamine cells in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) as mice engaged in an effort-based decision-making task. Tyrosine hydroxylase-Cre mice were injected with Cre-dependent ChR2 or eYFP control…

Lies to benefit the collective are common in adult contexts; however, less is known about children's willingness to lie for the collective. The present study examined 7- to 11-year-old children's tendency to lie to conceal a group transgression. Children (N = 408) participated in a competition in small groups during which the group leaders…

Purpose: The words and expressions are as important as the handled subject for the children in children's literature works. In this study, the works of Roald Dahl, who is one of the children's literature writers, have been examined to identify the violence elements, usage frequency and the situations in which violence elements are used in the…

A methodologically sound systematic review is characterized by transparency, replicability, and a clear inclusion criterion. However, little attention has been paid to reporting the details of interrater reliability (IRR) when multiple coders are used to make decisions at various points in the screening and data extraction stages of a study. Prior…

Cultural, racial, social, religious, ethnic heterogeneity of educational groups is a problem of modern education in the context of integration and globalization. This often becomes a reason for misunderstandings, sometimes aggression in the interaction of representatives of opposing worldviews, preferences or traditions. Tolerance in the…

Data-driven decision-making (DDDM) has been playing an increasing role in contemporary teaching, since it includes systematic collection, analysis, and application of data to improve students' educational performance. However, little is known about the affective factors that influence this data-based practice. Thus, the purpose of this study was…

Early attachment has been commonly hypothesized to predict children's future developmental outcomes, and robust evidence relying on assessments of single caregiver-child attachment patterns has corroborated this hypothesis. Nevertheless, most often children are raised by multiple caregivers, and they tend to form attachment bonds with more than…

The purpose of the present research is to determine the university students' levels and tendencies of narcissism, which is the subject of the research conducted in many different fields, to reveal its relationship with self-sabotage, which has been studied in recent years in Turkey, especially in the field of educational sciences, more…

Direct experiences in nature enable us learn and form environmental attitudes. Being influenced by nature as children is thought to help form a connection to nature that can lead to a lifetime of pro-environmental behaviors. A survey of adults in a watershed with a damaged estuary, however, suggests that concern and environmental identity were…
