Researchers have identified effective instructional strategies for teaching peer imitation, including embedded classroom-based interventions. However, there is a dearth of strategies that have been effective for teaching generalization of imitation skills to novel contexts. Building on previous research, we examined the use of progressive time…

To ensure the quality of training, skills developed and maintained, and expected standards for behavior analysts, several systems have been put into place across the years. Of these systems, perhaps the most widespread was the development of the Behavior Analyst Certification Board in 1998. Once all requirements are met, the final determinative…

Crook, Kayla C.; Ringdahl, Joel E.; Cooper, Rosie N.; Quinland, Kadijah; Mangum, Dan R.; Zabala, Karla – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2023
The Caught Being Good Game (CBGG) is an evidence-based practice used in classrooms to reduce disruptive classroom behavior. This approach to classwide intervention has been implemented and its effectiveness demonstrated across grade levels and types of disruptive behavior. Teachers report that the CBGG is an easy classroom management strategy to…

Vaughn, Kalif E.; Srivatsa, Neha; Graf, Allyson S. – Journal of College Student Retention: Research, Theory & Practice, 2023
Research on praise, in support of a growth mindset, has overwhelmingly focused on children. We explored how praise influences performance in college students. Colleges are often challenged to respond to students' established mindsets in the face of increasingly demanding coursework. Specifically, we examined how fear of failure may alter the…

Praise, defined as public or private expression of approval for behavior, is recognized as a critical component in many classroom behavior interventions. Historically, praise has been viewed from the perspective of educators in terms of both increasing educator-preferred behaviors and in terms of educators' perspectives. Little is known about…

Metcalfe, Janet; Kennedy-Pyers, Treva; Vuorre, Matti – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Past research has shown that when people are curious they are willing to wait to get an answer if the alternative is to not get the answer at all--a result that has been taken to mean that people valued the answers, and interpreted as supporting a reinforcement-learning (RL) view of curiosity. An alternative 'need for agency' view is forwarded…

MacLellan, Christopher J.; Gupta, Adit – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
There has been great progress towards Reinforcement Learning (RL) approaches that can achieve expert performance across a wide range of domains. However, researchers have not yet applied these models to learn expert models for educationally relevant tasks, such as those taught within tutoring systems and educational games. In this paper we explore…

Laura M. Harrison; Erin C. Morgenstern; Michael Angelo – College Teaching, 2024
There has been a movement toward pedagogies that employ student-centered learning (SCL) to increase student engagement and motivation. Our experience transitioning to remote teaching due to the COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity for us to observe how students used the chat function to take ownership of their learning. We used qualitative…

This research investigates the role of reinforcement sensitivity theory (RST) in statistics education among two distinct samples of undergraduate psychology students. In Study 1, 318 students in a third-year statistics course completed self-report measures of RST, anxiety, attitudes, and self-efficacy concerning the study of statistics. In Study…

Sha Shen; Tianqi Tang; Linjie Pu; Yunqing Mao; Zibin Wang; Saidi Wang – SAGE Open, 2024
Previous research has indicated that students' academic engagement is related to their emotional support from teachers. However, there is scarce evidence on how teacher emotional support relates to students' academic engagement. Given the potential role of positive academic emotions in learning, this study investigated the mediating role of…
