The aim of this study was to parse types of self-regulation and understand their relations with writing quality. Various skills within self-regulation are indirectly related to written expression. This is because of their influence on self-regulation processes, such as planning, within the writing process. However, studies have not yet clarified…

Often school-age children are thought of as dependent on their parents and not necessarily involved in behaviors related to their own self-care. It is important to implement and advance self-care performance early in life to promote healthy lifestyles. This review examined the use of Orem's Self Care Deficit Nursing Theory in relation to…

It is well-established that being a self-regulated learner is beneficial academically, motivationally and is considered essential for productive life-long learning. Despite this, there is limited evidence examining how different measures of self-regulation for learning (SRL) relate to task performance for young students learning in digital…

In education, understanding the determinants of learners' achievement is crucial. This study aimed to explore the correlation between emotional intelligence (EI) and academic achievement in primary schools. Using Goleman's Emotional Intelligence Assessment Scale adapted for local use, 444 primary school students were assessed via random sampling.…

Reading is a key ingredient in a student's education and their success as life-long learners. It is important in any subject taught in school, as textbooks and other written media are used to convey information being taught. Reading comprehension is an important component for student success both in and out of school. Reading is a key ingredient…

It is assumed that digital tools with ubiquitous classroom use have affordances for student agency and a range of social skills. However, few studies have explored the generalised impact of everyday digital classrooms on self-regulation and empathy, perspective taking and prosocial skills. Ten and 11 year old students' (n = 115) ratings of…

Research indicates that students with intellectual disability (ID) frequently engage in off-task and disruptive behaviors, which may lead to the exclusion of these students from general education classrooms and school dropouts. In the current study, researchers implemented self-monitoring to improve the on-task behaviors of four participants with…

The use of metacognitive and self-regulated strategies is a potential predictor of problem-solving skills and self-efficacy. However, this potential needs to be seen at the level of knowledge and experience of various attributes and forms of activity. This research aims to see the interaction effect of using metacognitive and self-regulated…

Cooperation is crucial in classrooms for positive interactions among pupils, but the factors influencing children's cooperative behaviors remain debated. This study explores the impact of cardiac vagal tone (CVT), a measure of physiological self-regulation, and cognitive control on cooperation among 109 primary school students. Heart rate…

The use of technology-based self monitoring (SM) interventions is becoming more popular, increasing the likelihood that SM interventions will have greater contextual fit within classrooms. SM has resulted in increases in desired school behaviors, such as increases in on task behavior, academic performance, and task completion for students…

Fine motor skills (FMS) are among the most studied nonlinguistic factors influencing early literacy acquisition. Although developmental studies have often supported the presence of a relationship between FMS and emergent literacy, the underlying mechanisms have not always been adequately explored. In this study, we used structural equation…

This study explores how elementary gifted learners, through the use of fidget strategies, self-regulate levels of attention to increase focus and decrease inattentiveness in the gifted support and general education classrooms. Gifted learners may often be overlooked in areas such as self-regulation and explicitly taught strategies because they…

Research Findings: The current study aimed to explore the independent and interactive roles of individual student-teacher relationship quality and classroom-level self-regulatory supports in kindergarten for children's self-regulatory skills in kindergarten and first grade. We did so using multiple measures of children's self-regulation, drawn…

Socioeconomic status has been a long-time discussed topic due to its impact on children's school paths. However, despite extant research indicating strong relationships between students' socioeconomic status, use of self-regulated learning strategies, and academic achievement, research on interventions addressing these topics is limited. This…

There is currently widespread interest in how to promote self-regulated learning (SRL) among young learners to prepare the stage for success in later years. Yet, there is little research that explores primary school students' perspectives and strategies which are known to directly influence their SRL engagement. We conducted semi-structured…
