In Single-Case Designs (SCD), the outcome variable most commonly involves some form of count data. However, statistical analyses and associated effect size (ES) calculations for count outcomes have only recently been proposed. Three recently proposed ES methods for count data are: Nonlinear Bayesian effect size (Rindskopf, 2014), Log Response…

The influences of information exposure on youth and young adults' (YYA) support for smoking/vaping regulations have been understudied. This study examines (i) the relationships between routine exposure to (i.e. scanning) anti-smoking/pro-vaping information and YYA support for anti-smoking/vaping regulations and (ii) whether these relationships…

Currently the design standards for single case experimental designs (SCEDs) are based on validity considerations as prescribed by the What Works Clearinghouse. However, there is a need for design considerations such as power based on statistical analyses. We compute and derive power using computations for (AB)[superscript k] designs with multiple…

As campus leaders called students, faculty, and staff back to in-person courses and student activities after the COVID-19 global pandemic, they were faced with employee retention challenges, burnout, recruitment limitations, and the changing nature of on-campus learning; there is ongoing discourse around these challenges and the extent to which…

The three missions of universities are education, research, and knowledge/technology transfer. At the micro-level of the research and knowledge/technology transfer mission, we position researchers, as individuals who decided to pursue a scientific career in academia, with the PhD as the starting point. While existing literature acknowledges the…

The objective of this research was to examine the relationship of the variables training and learning, and the diversity of sources of innovation's ideas, with the social innovation of non-profit organisations (NPOs). The study was carried out in Guayas-Ecuador. It is a quantitative, cross-sectional, and non-experimental study, in which Probit…

Burnout has become prevalent in various professional domains, including the field of education. Principals, at the forefront of educational institutions, face immense pressure and responsibilities. Recognizing the importance of addressing burnout, the aim of this study was to contribute to the existing body of research regarding burnout and the…

Emotional intelligence (EI) has a positive correlation with the academic performance of medical students. However, why there is a positive correlation needs further exploration. We hypothesized that the capability of answering higher-order knowledge questions (HOQs) is higher in students with higher EI. Hence, we assessed the correlation between…

Background: Reciprocal relationships exist between motor competencies, physical activity and self-concept. Aims: Using a structural equation model, this study examined whether these relationships also appear in children with intellectual disabilities, how they can be validly measured, and if there are differences between children with and without…

The overall purpose of this qualitative study is to gain a deeper understanding of how employers, who represent the Maltese labour market, view the role identities of Vocational Teacher Educators (VTEs). Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, adopting thematic analysis. Findings from this research, where it gives a voice to a…

The field of Data Science has seen rapid growth over the past two decades, with a high demand for people with skills in data analytics, programming, statistics, and ability to visualize, predict from, and otherwise make sense of data. Alongside the rise of various artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications, we have also…

In the context of Industry 4.0, research on lifelong learning intention (LLI) and adoption is valuable for developing a learning society. However, prior studies on LLI of adults have primarily focused on the impact of individual characteristics or environment sporadically. There is a lack of research approaching LLI of adults. In emerging markets…

The aim of the paper is to establish the mediating role of teachers' self-efficacy in the relationship between teachers' job satisfaction and teachers' commitment of primary school teachers in Malaysia. Although several scholars have established the relationship between teachers' commitment and job satisfaction, this is the first study that tests…

Background: There has been an increase in interest in emotion in engineering and science ethics education. There is also evidence that emotional content in case studies may improve students' learning and enhance awareness, understanding, and motivation concerning ethical issues. Despite these potential benefits, however, emotions' relationship to…

This article provides an analysis of a data set coming from a two-phase qualitative study that focused on fostering primary students' abstraction of interrelations among quadrilaterals (squares, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombuses, trapezoids). The pilot study consisted of work with eight primary students operating at van Hiele level 2 (e.g.,…
