Peer-tutoring (PT) is a widely studied learning strategy. No studies, to our knowledge, have examined the effects of PT on tutors' metacognitive abilities, particularly in relation to implicit theories of intelligence. Study 1 aimed to determine the effects of PT on tutors' theory and beliefs of intelligence and self-confidence in their own…

Integrating situated expectancy-value and family systems theories, the current study tested the extent to which Latinx adolescents' 9th-grade school-related science conversations with parents and older siblings/cousins positively predicted their 10th-grade science ability self-concepts and task values. We also tested whether these links were…

A challenge for using evaluation data to improve climate change education in schools is access to an instrument for teachers to measure behavioral changes and their antecedents. We report on teachers' implementation of a brief survey measuring climate-related beliefs, self-efficacy, intention to act, action, and anxiety before and after their…

Gender gaps in STEM fields have been studied for a long time, and the primary focus has been on the relationship among social support (parents and teachers), STEM beliefs (STEM interest belief, self-efficacy belief, and value belief), and STEM career expectations. Framed in Expectancy-Value Models, this article aimed to explore how social support…

The purposes of this explanatory sequential mixed methods study were to examine the self-efficacy beliefs of school librarians about integrating technology during inquiry-based learning during the quantitative phase and then to explore how these practices about technology integration during inquiry-based learning were being implemented during the…

Math consists of many components such as arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, where each component holds its importance in the field of math. Students of Grades 11 and 12 are at an important stage in their career, where the attitude and performance in math determines their future choices. Therefore, the aim of this study was to…

This paper investigates profiles of high school students' mathematical problem-solving beliefs following the introduction of a new mathematics curriculum.

Although there are numerous chemistry-related careers within the STEM fields, chemistry-related careers are not well regarded. High school is a critical time for developing students' career choices. Previous studies suggest that anxiety and identity may be predictors of career choice. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the…

Access to dual-enrollment courses, which allow high school students to earn college credit, is stratified by race/ethnicity, class, and geography. States and colleges have begun using "multiple measures" of readiness, including "non-cognitive" measures of student preparedness, in lieu of strict reliance on test scores in an…

An increasing number of studies in science education have proved the positive effects of students' epistemic beliefs on their academic achievements and self-efficacy. Despite the critical roles of teachers' classroom talks on shaping students' epistemic beliefs, little research has explored teachers' talks from epistemic perspectives. Therefore,…
