This study investigated how the school experiences and personal characteristics of youth with Intellectual Disabilities (ID) contribute to their longitudinal trajectories of anxiety. To this end, we relied on a sample of 390 youth with mild (48.2%) to moderate (51.8%) levels of ID, aged from 11 to 22 (M = 15.70), and recruited in Canada (n = 140)…

Strategic incremental rehearsal (SIR) is an efficacious flashcard intervention shown to improve foundational skill acquisition. However, there is limited research examining the feasibility and effectiveness of SIR when used by school-based implementers. We present two studies to address this limitation. Study 1 examined the effects of SIR…

PhD students' experiences in graduate school and associated outcomes vary by field of study, learning environment conditions, and support structures. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic specifically, PhD students' individual educational trajectories were potentially rendered more uncertain, as disruptive conditions for learning and research…

The diversity among undergraduate students in the United States has peaked recently. This quantitative study aims to investigate medical students' perceptions regarding the factors (gender/age/religious beliefs/disabilities, immigration status/political affiliation/sexual orientation) directing their overall campus satisfaction with diversity and…

Partner reading with paragraph shrinking has been shown to be an effective classwide reading intervention in elementary school, but has yet to be studied with eighth-grade students or with content area reading such as science and social studies. The current study examined the effects of implementing the classwide intervention for 3 wk with 86…

This present study aims to elaborate on the use of the problem-based method as an instructional strategy to produce an engaging online program that can facilitate the student's learning achievement. Since the students must interact actively with lecturers, other students, and course content, it is necessary that online learning involves the use of…

This case study explores how young adults (aged 18-24) taught and learned with and around technologies in a teen library space in Hartford, Connecticut. These young adults, called Legends by library staff, were technically not supposed to be present in the teens-only space. In this paper, I argue that Legends uniquely contributed to opportunities…

Families and other caregivers play a major role in children's learning and success in school. Psychologists have learned a great deal about how families can help their children learn and thrive in the classroom.

As the number of Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) continues to rise in the United States, higher education scholars and practitioners have increasingly wondered how HSIs fulfill their charge to serve Latinx/a/o communities. However, Latinx/a/o sexually minoritized students often go unrecognized in conversations on servingness at HSIs. This…

While empirical studies of research ethics and integrity are increasingly common, few have aimed at national scope, and even fewer at current results from Central and Eastern Europe. This article introduces the results of the first national research integrity survey in Estonia, which included all research-performing organisations in Estonia, was…

This study investigates the impact of rebranding office hours to "happy hours" on student engagement at Florida International University, where class sizes often exceed 100 students and can be as large as 400. The initiative aimed to address the challenge of low student attendance during traditional office hours, a critical time for…

Understanding the effectiveness of peer mentor training in online learning environments prepares students for their roles as online peer mentors. In the Learning Assistant peer mentor program, Learning Assistants (LAs) play a crucial role in supporting student learning and engagement in STEM courses. Due to the shift to online learning during the…

The retention of female students in engineering technology programs is a concern for midwestern university focusing to foster diversity in engineering and technology fields. This abstract explores the influence of female students' sense of belonging on their retention in engineering technology degree programs. Drawing upon a review of literature…

Using a large sample of students (N=1373; 40% girls; Mage =14 years) from 54 classrooms in South Korea, this study identified subtypes of bullies based on specific combinations of self-reports and peer-reports and examined the intrapersonal and interpersonal factors that explain the differences in characteristics between these identified groups.…
