Jenkins, Lyndsay N.; Yang, Yanyun; Changlani, Suravi; Mitchell, Stephan – Contemporary School Psychology, 2023
The primary purpose of this project was to explore how individual (i.e., gender of the intervener) and contextual (i.e., type of bullying and whether the target is a friend) factors influence the use and type of prosocial bystander intervention. This necessitated the development and validation of a survey that deconstructs prosocial bystander…

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…

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…

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…

Garrecht, Carola; Reiss, Michael J.; Harms, Ute – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Students' argumentation skills are considered a central tool to contribute to scientific controversies in the science classroom. Scientific controversies of social relevance (socioscientific issues; SSI) are subject to multiple viewpoints that are often rooted in diverse disciplines. However, the relationship between issue familiarity and…

MacMahon, Stephanie; Carroll, Annemaree; Gillies, Robyn M. – Learning Environments Research, 2020
Student achievement and engagement are both influenced by the quality of the learning environment. Effective learning environments are characterised by high levels of engagement and interpersonal connection. When learners share a sense of connection to one another and the learning experience, they are said to be experiencing social synchrony, an…

Ece Avinç; Fatih Dogan – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
The study aimed to develop a Likert-type measurement tool (Digital Literacy Scale, DLS) to determine the digital literacy levels of secondary school students. The validity and reliability of the developed measurement tool were verified using the Rasch model. The Rasch Model can estimate missing data and allow for small study groups (Rasch, Rasch,…
