Teachers are increasingly using augmented reality (AR) to develop students' higher-order thinking (HOT). As past studies showed mixed results, our "random effects meta-analysis" of 21 effect sizes from 17 studies of 1256 participants determined the overall effect of AR on HOT and accounted for differences across studies via moderator…

Background: People with neurodevelopmental disabilities are frequently prescribed or administered psychotropic medication, particularly to manage behaviours of concern. Reducing inappropriate psychotropic use has been the target of international research and policy for several decades. Methods: Six electronic databases were searched for…

This study aims to present a bibliometric analysis of international research on the response to intervention (RTI) approach. An analysis was conducted using the Web of Science database focusing on the period between 1997 and 2023. At the end of this analysis, 477 records that met the search criteria were identified. Initially, a performance…

While the absence of gatekeeping can foster a problematic populist disregard for scholarly expertise, there can exist a tension between scholarship that seeks to challenge or reimagine ways of knowing within a discipline and gatekeepers reliant on pervasive epistemologies. Given the limitations of present philosophical gatekeeping practices, I…

Maintaining academic research quality in higher education institutions (HEIs) has become increasingly important due to the need for knowledge advancement, public accountability, institutional credibility, and adaptability in the changing academic environment. This study investigated the practices of maintaining academic research quality at three…

This study examined the relationship between the accuracy of parental reporting of children's sleep duration compared to objectively measured child sleep and tested whether any discrepancies were related to childhood obesity prevalence in a sample of Latinx families (N = 119). A paired sample t-test revealed that parents significantly…

This study aims to generalize the reliability of the GAAIS, which is known to perform valid and reliable measurements, is frequently used in the literature, aims to measure one of today's popular topics, and is one of the first examples developed in the field. Within the meta-analytic reliability generalization study, moderator analyses were also…

Systematic reviews and meta-analyses aggregate research findings across studies and populations, making them a valuable form of research evidence. Over the past decade, studies in medical education using these methods have increased by 630%. However, many manuscripts are not publication-ready due to inadequate planning and insufficient analyses.…

The economic impact of resource investments into higher education has been the focus of considerable research in recent years. Many contributions analyse the strength of the connection between economic development and higher education at the local level and the conditions which make certain systems more effective and efficient than others. In this…

Having contributed to the UNESCO report "Reimagining our futures together: A new social contract for education" as a member of the International Commission and as Chair of the research-drafting committee of this commission, the author now takes the liberty of making some personal notes on the reflections advanced therein. This brief…

Psychological and psychoeducational evaluation reports are often criticized for being too long and difficult to understand. Nonetheless, these reports inform, and are often required for, high-stakes educational decisions. Very little prior research has documented whether general and special educators read the entirety of such reports. This study…

Across diverse yet largely unconnected reports, including language-focused research studies, psychotherapeutic case studies, literary biographies, and journalism, evidence exists of people distancing themselves from previously acquired linguistic resources, such as accents, dialects, and even named languages. In this article, I begin by discussing…

The purpose of this eighth edition of "Pastimes" is to extend the discussion about contemporary leisure to new concepts supported by the latest research findings and scholarly commentary. In this edition much of the content is new, including an added discussion on architecture as material culture. As well, more attention to indigenous…

This review was conducted in order to determine the specific role of intelligent technologies in the individual learning experience. The research work included consider articles published between 2014 and 2024, found in Web of Science, Scopus, and ERIC databases, and selected among 933 ?articles on the topic. Materials were checked for compliance…

This paper aims to shed light on an overlooked but essential aspect of informal reasoning and its radical implication to mathematics education research: Decentralising mathematics. We start to problematise that previous studies on informal reasoning implicitly overfocus on what students infer. Based on Walton's distinction between reasoning and…
