Jessica Bradshaw; Xiaoxue Fu; John E. Richards – Developmental Science, 2024
Sustained attention (SA) is an endogenous form of attention that emerges in infancy and reflects cognitive engagement and processing. SA is critical for learning and has been measured using different methods during screen-based and interactive contexts involving social and nonsocial stimuli. How SA differs by measurement method, context, and…

Michele E. Peters – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study explores how elementary gifted learners, through the use of fidget strategies, self-regulate levels of attention to increase focus and decrease inattentiveness in the gifted support and general education classrooms. Gifted learners may often be overlooked in areas such as self-regulation and explicitly taught strategies because they…

Kuzmina, Yulia; Ivanova, Alina; Denisov, Ilya – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Various factors at the individual and school levels contribute to the impairment of academic achievement. We examined whether academic class composition, measured as average class achievement and class heterogeneity (variance in achievement within class), moderates the associations of inattentiveness and hyperactivity/impulsivity with academic…

Zakraoui, Jezia; Saleh, Moutaz; Al-Maadeed, Somaya; AlJa'am, Jihad Mohamad – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Emotion and focus of children during handwriting are essential for language learning. Handwriting for young children is challenging because it needs deep motivation and willingness to complete the task regardless of its difficulty. Recently, emerged haptic guidance systems have a good potential to offer children a better sense of engagement to…

Elbawab, Mohamed; Henriques, Roberto – Education and Information Technologies, 2023
Electronic learning (e-learning) is considered the new norm of learning. One of the significant drawbacks of e-learning in comparison to the traditional classroom is that teachers cannot monitor the students' attentiveness. Previous literature used physical facial features or emotional states in detecting attentiveness. Other studies proposed…

Andrew E. Koepp; Elizabeth T. Gershoff – Child Development, 2024
Studying within-person variability in children's behavior is frequently hindered by challenges collecting repeated observations. This study used wearable accelerometers to collect an intensive time series (2.7 million observations) of young children's movement at school (N = 62, M[subscript age] = 4.5 years, 54% male, 74% Non-Hispanic White) in…

Jenny Byman; Kristiina Kumpulainen; Jenny Renlund – Australian Journal of Environmental Education, 2024
Based on an ethnographic study in a Finnish primary school, we explored lingering as both a pedagogical approach and a methodological concept for multispecies education research and practice. Through this conceptual thinking, we "re-turned" to the multiplicities that unfolded from noticing rhythms, enterings and different lifeworlds to…

Danielle R. Blazek; Jason T. Siegel – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
Social scientists have long agreed that satisficing behavior increases error and reduces the validity of survey data. There have been numerous reviews on detecting satisficing behavior, but preventing this behavior has received less attention. The current narrative review provides empirically supported guidance on preventing satisficing by…

Youngsun Moon; Young-Suk Grace Kim – Grantee Submission, 2024
The current study examined the potentially changing relations of vocabulary knowledge and attentional control with word reading and spelling from Grade 2 to Grade 4. Spelling was scored using a conventional correctness score and an alternative nonbinary scoring method that reflects the degree of correctness (i.e., text distance). A total of 165…

Sylviane Valdois; Ahmed Zaher; Svetlana Meyer; Julien Diard; Sonia Mandin; Marie Line Bosse – Reading Research Quarterly, 2025
Longitudinal studies on mainstream children and training studies in the dyslexic population suggest that visual attention span (VAS) abilities contribute to reading acquisition. We evaluated to what extent VAS training in beginning readers might enhance later literacy skills. A large cohort of 453 children was followed from the beginning to the…

Al-Balushi, Sulaiman M.; Al-Harthy, Ibrahim S.; Almehrizi, Rashid S. – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2023
When individuals' attention shifts away from the primary tasks they are involved in, their minds start to wander. This mental phenomenon, also known as mind-wandering, can interact with other variables and affect the performance of academic tasks. The current study focuses particularly on the mind-wandering (MW) of Omani students while they were…

Nejati, Vahid; Zavarei, Batool – Journal of Research in Childhood Education, 2023
Executive functions (EFs) play a crucial role in academic performance. In the present study, we aimed to improve EFs through a group-based cognitive training. Thirty-three typically developing children (age mean: 58.80 ± 7.04 months) were recruited in a random clinical trial design in two intervention (n = 18) and active control (n = 15) groups.…
