Digital tools such as audiobooks enable language learners to read and listen to a text simultaneously. Access to such bimodal input has been argued to enhance L2 vocabulary learning from reading by directing learners' attention to novel words and facilitating the development of form-meaning links (Long, 2017). However, research on the cognitive…

Agreement statistics and measures of prediction accuracy are often used to assess the quality of two measures of a construct. Agreement statistics are appropriate for measures that are supposed to be interchangeable, whereas prediction accuracy statistics are appropriate for situations where one variable is the target and the other variables are…

Research suggests youth with disabilities are less likely to experience positive outcomes compared to peers without disabilities. Identification of in-school predictors of postschool success can provide teachers (e.g., special education, general education, career technical education), administrators, district-level personnel, and vocational…

This ex-post facto research aims to identify the negative influence of peace of mind on students' aggressive behavior. Aggressive behavior of students has become a problem that has not been alleviated to the maximum and is increasingly complex.

Autistic children experience higher levels of anxiety than their peers. Making appropriate diagnoses of anxiety disorders and providing effective treatment for these children is particularly difficult. Inconsistent evidence suggests that levels of anxiety in autistic children are related to intellectual functioning. We provide the first…

Self-determination theory (SDT) states that social factors in an educational setting, such as teachers' motivating style, can influence students' motivation and engagement. This paper…

Up to now, support for the idea that a controlled component exists in creative thought has mainly been supported by correlational studies; to further shed light on this issue, we employed an experimental approach. We used four alternate uses tasks that differed in instruction type ("be fluent" vs. "be creative") and concurrent…

Clinical, medical, and health psychologists use difference scores obtained from pretest--posttest designs employing the same test to assess intraindividual change possibly caused by an intervention addressing, for example, anxiety, depression, eating disorder, or addiction. Reliability of difference scores is important for interpreting observed…

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between teacher candidates' conflict activity styles and career adaptability. It also investigates whether conflict activity styles and career adaptability levels differ according to demographic variables. Research Methods: The research population consisted of 451 teacher candidates in a…

Interest in spatial ability has grown over the past few decades following the emergence of correlational evidence associating spatial aptitude with educational performance in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The research field at large and the anatomy education literature on this topic are mixed. In an attempt to…

Teachers must be able to monitor students' behavior and identify valid cues in order to draw conclusions about students' actual engagement in learning activities. Teacher training can support (inexperienced) teachers in developing these skills by using videotaped teaching to highlight which indicators should be considered. However, this supposes…
