Adolescent perceptions of positive relationships with adults at school can potentially buffer against disengagement, particularly among those who experience symptoms of emotional or behavioral adjustment problems. Teachers' use of culturally responsive teaching practices (CRPs) are theorized to promote student-teacher connectedness, though…

Virtual Reality (VR) provides an immersive learning (IL) experience by simulating real-world scenarios that bridge the gap between theory and application. VR simulations are interactive and enhance student engagement across a range of concepts, from simple to complex. India and Russia share similar cultural and historical backgrounds, and both are…

Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are at increased risk for developing secondary anxiety symptoms. While interpersonal functioning has been implicated in this comorbidity, the specific peer-related factors contributing to anxiety in youth with ADHD remain unclear. This study examined the roles of social problems,…

The rapid growth of Chinese international high schools, driven by globalization, has created a distinct student population that faces unique adaptation challenges, which frequently manifest as anxiety symptoms. Current research lacks sufficient exploration of the adaptation processes and supportive factors for this specific demographic. This study…

There is limited research regarding the Gilliam Autism Rating Scales-3rd Edition (GARS-3) despite its extensive use. A comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, including the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule--2nd Edition (ADOS-2) was provided to 186 clinically referred children suspected of autism ([x-bar] age = 8.98; Autism [AUT] n = 87; Not…

To better understand the impact of children's autism spectrum disorder (ASD) severity on families, we evaluated pathways through which ASD severity affected child sleep quality, caregiver strain, and caregiver sleep quality. In a cross-sectional analysis through the U.S.-wide Simons Foundation Powering Autism Research for Knowledge (SPARK) cohort.…

Previous psychophysical studies reported a positive aftereffect in tactile temporal order judgments, which can be explained by the Bayesian estimation model ('Bayesian calibration'). We investigated the relationship between Bayesian calibration and autistic traits in participants with typical development (TD) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD).…

Researchers often make claims regarding the importance of predictor variables in multiple regression analysis by comparing standardized regression coefficients (standardized beta coefficients). This practice has been criticized as a misuse of multiple regression analysis. As a remedy, I highlight the use of dominance analysis and random forests, a…

Many autistic people do not learn they are autistic until adulthood. Parents may wait to tell a child they are autistic until they feel the child is "ready." In this study, a participatory team of autistic and non-autistic researchers examined whether learning one is autistic at a younger age is associated with heightened well-being and…

Servant leadership is a type of leadership that encourages people to work together. A leader intends to help the institution's personnel favorably. The school leader interacts with teachers and administrative staff as a collegial friend rather than a boss and tries to make things as easy as possible for them. The major goal of this study was to…

Effect modification (EM) may cause bias in network meta-analysis (NMA). Existing population adjustment NMA methods use individual patient data to adjust for EM but disregard available subgroup information from aggregated data in the evidence network. Additionally, these methods often rely on the shared effect modification (SEM) assumption. In this…

Online calibration is a key technology for item calibration in computerized adaptive testing (CAT) and has been widely used in various forms of CAT, including unidimensional CAT, multidimensional CAT (MCAT), CAT with polytomously scored items, and cognitive diagnostic CAT. However, as multidimensional and polytomous assessment data become more…

In recent years, flipping classrooms has become a popular topic of discussion. However, few previous studies have focused on the effect of the flow experience on programming self-efficacy. To address this gap, the present researchers developed a model that included six research hypotheses. The study applied a flipped classroom model to a…

This paper aims to explore the relationship between Karl Marx's concept of justice and Martha Nussbaum's capabilities approach. Nusbaum follows the Aristotelian idea of man as a political animal, which is intrinsically consistent with Marx's view of human nature, but she provides us with a new normative perspective to reconsider Marxism. When she…
