Developed to maximize learning performance, learning analytics dashboards (LAD) are becoming increasingly commonplace in education. An LAD's effectiveness depends on how it is used and varies according to users' academic levels. In this study, two LADs and a learning support system were used in a higher education course to support students'…

The current study aimed to determine the differences in cognitive avoidance, anger rumination, and general anxiety in response to the gender and the emotional regulation disturbance variables. The sample was (418) university students who were asked to answer on study tools of cognitive avoidance, anger rumination, general anxiety, and emotional…

Personalized feedback is important for the learning process, but it is time consuming and particularly problematic in large-scale courses. While automatic feedback may help for self-regulated learning, not all forms of feedback are effective. Social comparison offers powerful feedback but is often loosely designed. We propose that intertwining…

Objective: This study examined whether studying in a Consciousness-Based Education institution influenced college students' mental and physical health. Participants and methods: Undergraduate college students (n = 321) completed the Duke Health Profile, assessing 11 areas of mental and physical health, both as entering freshmen (2008-2014) and at…

As student veterans and service members (SVSM) continue to pursue post-secondary education, the body of literature contains multiple studies of transition and acculturation, but little empirical assessment of programs and services to support SVSM and address factors of student success, including academic achievement, engagement in educationally…

Conceptualized in formative assessment and sociocognitive theory, peer feedback and self-regulated learning (SRL) instruction were used in this mixed-method study to investigate their effects on Thai EFL university students' essay writing ability and their self-regulation. During the 12-week online instruction period, 35 third-year students…

Background: Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) requires consistent disease management for blood sugar regulation. A theoretical framework can assist with interpreting behavioral processes needed for disease management. However, limited qualitative studies have explored disease management practices among college students with T1D using a theoretical framework.…

Research has shown that dietary patterns and obesity are associated with cognitive deficits. The present study examined the extent to which undergraduate students' tendency to overeat was associated with difficulties in cognitive functioning. Participants (n = 300) completed an online survey that assessed the relationship of dietary patterns to…

Most of our current university student cohort, known as GenZ, have grown-up in a digitally connected world with access to various technological devices and social-media platforms. While technology can assist to engage students, in the learning environment many students spend a significant amount of time switching between devices engaging in…

The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 pandemic on March 11, 2020. Subsequent lockdowns and fatalities have significantly impacted individuals' lives, social relationships, and economic conditions. While pandemics affecting populations can lead to health issues, they also give rise to psychological disturbances such as anxiety, worry,…

The study aims to reveal the psychological and pedagogical indicators of self-management in a student's personality and systematize contemporary synergetic approaches for distance education. The research hypothesis suggests the possibility of optimizing students' motivation for self-management and self-learning for efficient education in a…

The purpose of this quantitative causal comparative study is to understand if there are significant differences in levels of intrinsic goal orientation, task value and effort regulation between online undergraduate and graduate students as well as students studying in education and business programs at a university based in Phoenix, Arizona. It is…

Living-learning communities have surfaced as a high-impact practice designed to combat student attrition and support student success in higher education. Despite this connection to high-impact practices, there is limited understanding regarding how living-learning communities develop self-regulated learners, a key characteristic of student…

Research has yielded much evidence that investing in postsecondary interventions increases retention and success for Hispanic/Latinx undergraduates. This study examines one such intervention, funded by Title V and implemented at a large public Hispanic-Serving Institution, developed to improve semester-to-semester retention. Faculty and peer…

To reduce their attrition rates, institutions need to ensure that their students can manage the stressors they confront in their academic work and persist to complete their study programs. Given the significance of non-cognitive attributes in education, this study aimed to identify the non-cognitive profiles exhibited by students which related…
