This paper's overall intention is to contribute to a deeper understanding of higher education graduates' transitions between education and work shortly after…

van der Aalsvoort, Geerdina Maria; Lepola, Janne; Overtoom, Lisette; Laitinen, Satu – Research Papers in Education, 2015
It is a challenge for an early education teacher to enhance the development of self-regulation of young children to become and stay motivated for tasks that elicit school-related skills that do not immediately make sense for them. Being aware of motivational orientations in young students is therefore a must. In the study, a cross-cultural…

The quality of school life (QSL) was assessed by a representative sample ("N" = 735) of pupils at years 3 and 6 (9- and 12-years-olds). The results showed…

Managerialism and neoliberal changes and demands influence the work and family lives of academics differently in different positions and contexts.

I ask how the…

Tuominen-Soini, Heta; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – Developmental Psychology, 2014
Applying a person-centered approach, the primary aim of this study was to examine what profiles of schoolwork engagement and burnout (i.e., exhaustion, cynicism, inadequacy) can be identified in high school (N = 979) and among the same participants in young adulthood (ages ranging from 17 to 25). We also examined gender differences, group…
