This case study reflects upon practices of community-engaged scholarship and teaching as autoethnography research rooted in Indigenous educational sovereignty and decolonization. In this case study, readers are invited to contemplate how their positionalities, and practices in their respective fields, could be framed into active research. Readers…

This case study is based on qualitative research carried out with four 4-year-old children attending a kindergarten in Malta. The aim of the study was to first observe children playing without adult intervention to see if, and how, they would engage with mathematical ideas as they played. In the second part of the study, I interacted with the…

Eventualities have been recognized as psychologically and linguistically relevant for more than 50 years. Psychologically, eventualities are complex bundles of information derived from our perceptions of the world. The question for linguists is how much of this complexity is reflected in our eventuality-denoting lexical entries and the…

To explore the extent at which the published student affairs research in top-tier journals is conducted primarily at four-year institutions at the exclusion of literature on community colleges, we conducted a content analysis to examine the number and type of journal articles related to community colleges published in the Journal of College…

Mentorship experiences involve a variety of motives, but some are more effective than others. The authors hypothesized that personal autonomous reasons (PARs, "for me") and relational autonomous reasons (RARs, "for us") for engaging in undergraduate research would be associated with better perceived and scholarly outcomes,…

This paper leans into alterlife (Murphy, 2017) and connectivity ontologies (Harrison, 2015) to consider the implications of more-than-witness(es/ing) (our term) on social studies education. Taking a narrative approach, we engage with three more-than-human bodies (e.g., Boulder, Forest, Document(s)) in an effort to expand how act(or/ion)s of…

This paper presents a review of the literature pertaining to exam anxiety, highlighting findings from empirical studies, theoretical frameworks, and practical strategies. Exam anxiety is a pervasive issue affecting students worldwide, impacting academic performance and psychological well-being. This review explores the causes, manifestations, and…

In tracing recent research trends and directions in mathematical problem-solving, it is argued that advances in mathematics practices occur and take place around two intertwined activities, mathematics problem formulation and ways to approach and solve those problems. In this context, a problematizing principle emerges as central activity to…

We explore the role of organizational factors in research collaboration networks among European universities. The study of organizational drivers in shaping collaboration patterns is crucial for policy design aimed at reducing research fragmentation and fostering knowledge creation and diffusion. By using Exponential Random Graph Models (ERGMs)…

This paper explores reflexivity in qualitative research, challenging conventional perspectives that revolve around the binary of 'insider' and 'outsider' positioning. While traditionally reflexivity has been understood through the lens of a researcher's socio-historical positionality, we argue for a more dynamic understanding, emphasizing that…

On archives and archival impressions, this essay extends archivalresearch to the elsewhere and otherwise. The essay asks, how do we reposition thecontents of archives so that we can position ourselves in relation to it otherwise? Itputs forward a theory of (decolonizing) archival impressions.

Assessment is a key element in the teaching-learning process in physical education (PE). In 2020, the Association Internationale des Écoles Supérieures d'Éducation Physique (AIESEP) published a position statement on PE assessment, in which it reviews the current state of the field and establishes the current yet forward-looking main lines of…

Egypt currently holds the record for the most retractions in the continent of Africa according to the Retraction Watch database, and the 2nd highest of countries in the Middle East. The purpose of this study was to analyse the retracted medical publications from Egyptian affiliations, in order to delineate specific problems and solutions. We…

Instrumental variables is a popular approach for causal inference in education when randomization of treatment is not feasible. Using a first-year college program as a running example, this article reviews the five assumptions that must be met to successfully use instrumental variables to estimate a causal effect with observational data: SUTVA,…

Over the past 30 years, several reviews have examined scholarly contributions of individual researchers and institutions in the field of educational psychology (Fong et al., Educational Psychology Review 34:2379-2403, 2022; Greenbaum et al., Educational Psychology Review 28:215-223, 2016; Hsieh et al., Contemporary Educational Psychology…
