Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to establish a moderated mediation model to examine the paradoxical effect of new college graduates' employability on their career decision-making difficulties, with the mediating role of perceived overqualification. We also examined the moderating role of perceived COVID-19 crisis strength to strengthen this…

In an increasingly litigious and politically charged environment, university general counsel (UGC) play a critical yet understudied role in shaping institutional responses to student activism and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts. This case study explores how UGC and institutional leaders at two southern U.S. universities collaborate…

The academic world is no exception. Methods: The authors are members of an inclusive academic team, including a colleague…

The moral foreign-language effect (MFLE) suggests biases present when making moral decisions in the native language are not present in the foreign language. However, the literature using explicit dilemmas shows inconsistent findings. The present study investigates whether MFLE has its origin in the reduced emotion hypothesis. Instead of the…

Reflecting the significant delays in autism assessments globally, studies have explored whether autism assessments conducted via telehealth are feasible and accurate. This systematic review investigated the psychometric properties of autism assessment tools for children administered via telehealth and examined the diagnostic accuracy of telehealth…

Activist approaches to teaching resist neoliberal and white-centric approaches to education. Within such a framework, students can develop racial literacy and civic identity as activist citizens. In this case study of one classroom in a publicly funded democratic school, the teacher used activist pedagogy -- an approach that directly engages young…

Research has indicated that students experience negative reactions to their placement in a basic writing course. Despite negative disposition toward basic writing, self-placement practices have become commonplace in higher education for advancing equity. Using the concept of "Possible Academic Selves," this article examines student…

Early intervention (EI) sessions are intended to occur in a child's natural environment. Part of a child's natural environment includes the materials they typically can access.

In this study, we examine the real-time decision-making processes of a teacher in a UK post-16 mathematics classroom focusing on the integration of student-centred teaching methods. The contribution of this study is a transdisciplinary theoretical discussion which links teachers' actual classroom practices (often traditional and teacher centred)…

Purpose: In post-conflict nations, leadership in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) is pivotal for shaping the institutional culture necessary for national development. However, there is a lack of empirical research investigating how specific leadership behaviors influence cultural formation in such contexts. This study aimed to empirically…

There is a wide-spread perception that universities reorganise their academic units frequently, although there is little beyond anecdote to support this. Similarly, the literature contains some speculation about what affects the success of such efforts, but there is almost no data to support various views. This study assesses the perceptions of…

The analysis undertaken in this article pertain to the challenge faced by education, which consists of overcoming the negative aspects of contemporary individualism, such as the building of instrumental relationships by people maturing in a culture permeated with it. Consequently, there is limited responsibility taken for the other people…

Teaching to support students' sense-making is challenging. It requires continuous, context-dependent decision-making about which student ideas to pursue, when, how, and why. This paper presents a single case study of an experienced teacher, Nadine, as an illustrative case in order to provide a rich description of this teacher's decisional…

This study aims to investigate the characteristics of students who switch versus those who do not switch when they transition from upper secondary to higher education. The data from 1338 students randomly selected from 21 HEIs in Cambodia in 2020 found that upper secondary school students are more likely than not to switch academic majors when…
