When Competence and Confidence Are at Odds: A Cross-Country Examination of the Dunning-Kruger Effect
Kajsa Yang Hansen; Cecilia Thorsen; Jelena Radišic; Francisco Peixoto; Anu Laine; Xin Liu – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Research has shown that some students who underperform in mathematics overestimate their performance, while others who excel in mathematics underestimate it. Looking at this mismatch of performance and confidence judgement--the Dunning-Kruger effect (DKE)--the current study investigates how well students' confidence judgement and item-specific…

Gordana Keresteš; Erland Hjelmquist; Marika Veisson; Linda S. Siegel – Reading Psychology, 2024
We report results from children learning to read in one of four different languages: Croatian, English, Estonian and Swedish. The languages all have an alphabetical script but vary greatly on the dimension deep-shallow (or complexity-simplicity, or opacity-transparency), i.e., how close orthography and phonology are related. These languages also…

Information was obtained from pupils (n = 5271) and teachers (n = 351). The analyses were conducted using 2-level structural equation modeling. Teacher…

Nyroos, Mikaela; Wiklund-Hornqvist, Carola – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2011
Introduction: The Swedish government has decided to introduce national tests in primary education. Swedish pupils in general have few tests and a recognised possible adverse effect of testing is test anxiety among pupils, which may have a negative impact on examination performance. However, there has been little research on effects of testing on…
