Learning assistant (LA) programs train undergraduate students to foster peer discussion and facilitate active-learning activities in undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) classes. Students who take courses that are supported by LAs demonstrate better conceptual understanding, lower failure rates, and higher…

Sheena Friesen – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Approximately 35% of college students meet diagnostic criteria for a mental health disorder and symptoms of anxiety and depression prevail as the most common mental health issues among undergraduates. Unfortunately, only 10% of college students who indicated they would benefit from mental health services stated that they received care. Tiered,…

Chevrier, Marianne; Muis, Krista R.; Di Leo, Ivana – Journal of Experimental Education, 2020
We examined the role of epistemic cognition in calibration to task complexity before and during learning. Sixty-six undergraduate students were presented with two learning tasks--a simple task and a more complex task--in random order. Prior to learning, offline measures of learners' epistemic beliefs about climate change were taken. An open-ended…

Dinsmore, Daniel L.; Zoellner, Brian P. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2018
Background: This investigation was designed to uncover the relations between students' cognitive and metacognitive strategies used during a complex climate simulation. While cognitive strategy use during science inquiry has been studied, the factors related to this strategy use, such as concurrent metacognition, prior knowledge, and prior…

Ranellucci, John; Muis, Krista R.; Duffy, Melissa; Wang, Xihui; Sampasivam, Lavanya; Franco, Gina M. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2013
Background: Research is needed to explore conceptual change in relation to achievement goal orientations and depth of processing. Aims: To address this need, we examined relations between achievement goals, use of deep versus shallow processing strategies, and conceptual change learning using a think-aloud protocol. Sample and Method:…

Dierdorff, Erich C.; Ellington, J. Kemp – Personnel Psychology, 2012
Longitudinal data from 338 individuals across 64 teams in a simulation-based team-training context were used to examine the effects of dispositional goal orientation on self-regulated learning (self-efficacy and metacognition). Team goal orientation compositions, as reflected by average goal orientations of team members, were examined for…
