Wang, Hui; King, Ronnel B.; McInerney, Dennis M. – Research Papers in Education, 2023
The advantages and disadvantages of ability grouping for student achievement are strongly contested, with studies presenting different results. However, much of this research has focused on class-level or subject-level ability grouping. Relatively less research has focused on school-level ability grouping. More importantly, the role of teacher…

Caputi, Marcella; Bosacki, Sandra – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2023
The relation between cognition and life satisfaction is shaped by several factors. The present research investigated whether mindreading skills are linked to subjective well-being and anxiety during the transition into adolescence. Specifically, our aim was to investigate individual differences in those constructs and gendered relational patterns.…

Deniz, Kaan Zulfikar; Ilican, Emel – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2021
This study aims to compare the G and Phi coefficients as estimated by D studies for a measurement tool with the G and Phi coefficients obtained from real cases in which items of differing difficulty levels were added and also to determine the conditions under which the D studies estimated reliability coefficients closer to reality. The study group…

Junsang Park; Heejae Lee; Joonsuk Kim; Anne Q. Zhou – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2024
Background: The development of learning attitudes during middle school transition and adaptation is critical, as shown by Self-Determination Theory (SDT). However, the development of adolescents' learning attitudes throughout middle school and the impact of parenting styles on this development remains largely unexplored. Objective: This research…

Summers, Ryan; Wang, Shuai – International Journal of Science Education, 2023
Social cognitive career theory (SCCT) and the theories of reasoned action and planned behaviour (TRAPB) have both guided studies seeking to explain students' intentions and decisions related to future science engagement. The purpose of this study was to simultaneously validate measures for these two social psychological models and closely examine…

Chen, Chia-Wen; Andersson, Björn; Zhu, Jinxin – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2023
The certainty of response index (CRI) measures respondents' confidence level when answering an item. In conjunction with the answers to the items, previous studies have used descriptive statistics and arbitrary thresholds to identify student knowledge profiles with the CRIs. Whereas this approach overlooked the measurement error of the observed…

Senol Namli – Shanlax International Journal of Education, 2024
A significant number of students with learning disabilities encounter challenges in acquiring knowledge, particularly in mathematics. Nonetheless, having a disability or being disadvantaged is not a preference or decision made by these students - or more generally, by these individuals; rather, this label is assigned to them by the prevailing…

Catalán Molina, Diego; Porter, Tenelle; Oberle, Catherine; Haghighat, Misha; Fredericks, Afiya; Budd, Kristen; Roberts, Sylvia; Blackwell, Lisa; Trzesniewski, Kali H. – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2022
Recent studies have suggested that quality of delivery matters to achieve better student outcomes in the context of school interventions. However, studies rarely measure quality of delivery and test its association with students' outcomes, perhaps due to lack of clarity regarding how to measure it. Here, we offer recommendations on how to select…

Chan, Wendy; Oh, Jimin; Luo, Peihao – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2021
Findings from experimental studies have increasingly been used to inform policy in school settings. Thus far, the populations in many of these studies are typically defined in a cross-sectional context; namely, the populations are defined in the same academic year in which the study took place or the population is defined at a fixed time point.…

Karen Ramlackhan; Yan Wang – Urban Education, 2024
We used the Stanford education data archive (SEDA) data to examine the heterogeneity among urban school districts in the United States. The SEDA 2.1 includes data sets on students' mathematics (Math) and English language arts (ELA) achievement from 2008 to 2014 at the district level. Growth mixture modeling was used to uncover the underlying…

Wade-Jaimes, Katherine; Cohen, Jonathan D.; Calandra, Brendan – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2022
African-American women continue to be underrepresented in science and engineering field despite years of interventions, including providing out-of-school time STEM experiences. Although some out-of-school time programs have shown impacts in participants' content knowledge and skill acquisition, impacts on science identity development have been…

Tuohilampi, Laura; Nieminen, Juuso Henrik; Beswick, Kim – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2023
When a Year 7 student physically reacted to a prompt of another student by anxiously drumming the desk with his ruler, exclaiming "uuuuhh", the initial thought of the observing researcher, Laura, was: "this is an interesting account". This started a reflective journey of first applying robust research methodologies to the…
