Wang, Fang; Nguyen, Quynh Trang H.; Kaneshiro, Blair; Hasak, Lindsey; Wang, Angie M.; Toomarian, Elizabeth Y.; Norcia, Anthony M.; McCandliss, Bruce D. – Developmental Science, 2023
There are multiple levels of processing relevant to reading that vary in their visual, sublexical, and lexical orthographic processing demands. Segregating distinct cortical sources for each of these levels has been challenging in EEG studies of early readers. To address this challenge, we applied recent advances in analyzing high-density EEG…

Zhang, Yingbin; Paquette, Luc; Baker, Ryan S.; Bosch, Nigel; Ocumpaugh, Jaclyn; Biswas, Gautam – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
The feelings of difficulty and familiarity (FOD and FOF) are two types of metacognitive experiences. Both may influence student engagement and the application of metacognitive strategies, but these relationships are not well understood, in part because many studies have relied on self-report measures of behaviors that may not accurately reflect…

Godwin, Karrie E.; Leroux, Audrey J.; Seltman, Howard; Scupelli, Peter; Fisher, Anna V. – Cognitive Science, 2022
Prior research suggests that visual features of the classroom environment (e.g., charts and posters) are potential sources of distraction hindering children's ability to maintain attention to instructional activities and reducing learning gains in a laboratory classroom. However, prior research only examined short-term exposure to elements of…

Rahman, Taslima; Alexander, Patricia A.; Chae, Soo Eun – Reading Psychology, 2022
This paper describes the benefits of a psychometric analytic approach when studying students' ability to comprehend texts. A reading comprehension measure consisting of four text passages with 32 questions was developed, and analyses using a mean-based approach and linear logistic test (LLTM) method were performed. According to ANOVA, eighth-grade…

Thams, L.; Hvid, L. G.; Damsgaard, C. T.; Hansen, M. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2021
We aimed to assess the test-retest reliability of five muscle strength and physical function tests in healthy children. Forty-one children (6--9 years) were tested three times 4-10 days apart. The test protocol included maximal isometric leg press, hand grip strength, squat jump, long jump, and a 30-sec sit-to-stand test (STST). When comparing…

Enrico Gandolfi; Richard E. Ferdig; Karl W. Kosko – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2024
Teacher education has begun to embrace the use of 360 videos to improve preservice teachers' (PSTs) engagement and immersion. While recent research on such use is promising overall, there are specific questions that have been left unanswered about the construct of presence in 360 videos. More specifically, research has yet to fully explore how…

Cairncross, Alex; Dal Pozzo, Lena – First Language, 2022
While previous work on postverbal subjects in Italian has shown that young children are sensitive to the effects of argument structure and definiteness, little is known about the acquisition of postverbal subjects at the VP-periphery. In response, the present study investigated such subjects under new-information focus by monolingual Italian…

Patrícia Gamboa; Sofia Freire; Aurízia Anica; Maria João Mogarro; Maria Fátima Moreira; Francisco Vaz da Silva – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2024
One argument for the inclusion of children with special education needs (SEN) is that they will benefit from the interactions and relationships with their typically developing peers. However, students with SEN tend to be more rejected than their non-SEN peers. Considering the negative consequences of peer rejection on socioemotional development…

Ní Chorcora, Eilís; Swords, Lorraine – Irish Educational Studies, 2022
Teachers can play a crucial role in identifying and responding to children's mental health difficulties. This study explored teachers' mental health literacy (MHL) and their help-giving responses, a topic which is relatively unexplored, particularly at primary school level. Primary teachers (N = 356) responded to a questionnaire that followed the…
