The use of social-emotional learning (SEL) in education has seen a significant increase in elementary schools with numerous studies supporting its benefits (Kim, 2022). However, the same is not true for high schools and higher education. Research supports the notion that SEL not only improves academic achievement but also enhances self-efficacy, a…

Students with disabilities (SWD) often display lower self-efficacy and have a more negative attitude toward reading compared to typically developing peers. Little research has been conducted to measure the relationship between reading self-efficacy and reading achievement of SWD. The purpose of this study was to investigate if reading…

Purpose: One of the core features that can be experienced by adults on the autism spectrum is hyper- and hyporeactivity to sensory stimuli. Research suggests that executive functioning (EF) impairments are related to sensory issues. In this study the relationship between sensory processing issues and EF was investigated. We expected sensory…

Parallel analysis has been considered one of the most accurate methods for determining the number of factors in factor analysis. One major advantage of parallel analysis over traditional factor retention methods (e.g., Kaiser's rule) is that it addresses the sampling variability of eigenvalues obtained from the identity matrix, representing the…

The Penn Computerized Neurocognitive Battery (CNB) is a collection of tests validated using neuroimaging, genetics, and other criteria. An updated version of the CNB was constructed in which all tests were converted to either computerized adaptive (CAT) or abbreviated forms. In a mixed community/clinical sample (N = 307; mean age = 25.9 years;…

This research aims to analyse the complex connections between students' engagement in extracurricular activities (ECAs), their sense of school belonging, and the cumulative effects on their psychological well-being and academic performance. The results based on a sample of 892 students reveal that active engagement in ECAs does not influence…

Spirituality is an important factor in supporting resilience and well-being among children, yet it is not often discussed in the field of school psychology or the public school setting. Indeed, aspects of spirituality align with the core components of social-emotional learning (SEL), such as awareness of self and others, relationship skills, and…

Bullying victimization is a school problem that warrants attention. While most work has focused on understanding bullies and victims, it is important that research explore how to promote bystander behavior during bullying as a mechanism to deter bullying in schools. Perceptions of the school climate may impact the likelihood of a student's…

Objective: Framed in Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory, this study examined the moderating effects of mindfulness and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) on the relationship between behavioral inhibition system (BIS) sensitivity and psychological distress in college students. Participants: Undergraduate students (n = 183) at a large…

Objective: The aim of this scoping review was to examine what is known about the relationship between the resilience and mental health of undergraduate students enrolled in university or college programs, globally. Methods: Five electronic databases were searched, yielding a total of 1,498 articles that were screened independently by two…

The nodules on the roots of soybeans provide N that the plant uses for growth and development. The goal of this study is to observe if the number of nodules on the taproot, volume of nodules on the taproot, the total number of nodules, or the number of nodules on the secondary roots in the early growth stages of soybeans have a significant…

Previous studies on mindfulness and creativity have focused on the beneficial effects of mindfulness on concentration. However, few have explored this from the perspective of psychological resources. Based on resource conservation theory, this study focuses on the positive psychological functions of mindfulness and how they complement the…

The multidimensional mixture data structure exists in many test (or inventory) conditions. Heterogeneity also relatively exists in populations. Still, some researchers are interested in deciding to which subpopulation a participant belongs according to the participant's factor pattern. Thus, in this study, we proposed three analysis procedures…

Temperament and externalizing problems are closely linked, but research on how they codevelop across adolescence remains sparse and equivocal. Reinforcement sensitivity theory (RST) provides a useful framework for understanding temperament and externalizing problems associations. During adolescence, oppositional problems are posited to be linked…

Objective: The systematic review was used to evaluate the relationship between fundamental movement skills (FMS) and physical activity (PA) in preschoolers. Data sources: PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang databases were searched for terms related to preschoolers' FMS and PA from the establishment to July, 2022. Results: 21…
