Although cognitive and environmental factors are both vital in shaping young children's math abilities, a comprehensive integration of these domains is necessary to understand fully how these interconnected influences related children's math abilities. Especially the executive function (EF), home and school environment are the most primary factors…

The analysis presented in this report investigates the influence of socioeconomic background, behaviour, neighbourhood context, and family-related characteristics on attainment. Collectively, these dimensions are referred to as demographic factors and behavioural factors and shape the learning environment at home. The home learning environment…

The following tables are presented in this appendix to accompany the full report "The Home Learning Environment and Attainment. Research Report": (1) Summary crosstabulations of FSM and non-FSM pupils by key educational, behavioural and HLE related characteristics; (2) Univariate regression models for L2 and L3 attainment by key…

We investigated direct experiences with nature and socialization as predictors of preschool-aged children's environmental moral reasoning. Children (n = 146; 52.7% male) from three U.S. states completed biophilia and environmental moral reasoning interviews. Parents (n=98) completed surveys about their children's activities in natural areas and…

This study examines learners' acceptance of an immersive STEAM-based microlearning environment from the perspective of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), utilizing Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) as the primary analytical approach. While immersive technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)…

Attitudes toward people with disabilities greatly influence the lives of people with disabilities, especially during childhood. Negative attitudes toward children with disabilities are considered a barrier to the social participation of children with impairment in academics, organized sports, and social events. However, positive attitudes will…

Narcissism is a phenomenon that can have serious consequences for organizations and their employees. On the other hand, employees who show organizational citizenship behaviors, such as helping their colleagues, can help create a positive and productive work environment. In this study, it was aimed to determine teachers' perception levels of…

Using a genetically informed design based on twins, this study tested the association between chronic peer victimization from ages 12 to 17 and later cortisol secretion at age 19 and the moderating effect of social support in this regard. These associations were examined while also considering the effects of genetic factors and concurrent…

To investigate the antecedents of children's trait- and state-level peer competence, this study used a random-intercepts model to separately explore the influences of early stable predictors (i.e. temperament and attachment) and dynamic environmental factors (i.e. family and school) on peer competence. The study sample included children in the…

The success of students is closely tied to their well-being and those students with high degrees of well-being are more likely to excel in academic environments. Accordingly, the internal and external factors that cause positive changes in students' mental states and lead them to higher levels of psychological well-being (PWB) need to be divulged.…

In this study, it was aimed to examine the effect of teachers' perceptions of innovative schools and schools' openness to change on their perceptions of adaptive performance. Predictive correlational design was used in the study. Simple random sampling method was utilized to determine the sample. The sample consisted of 258 teachers.…

The education system strives to help students from low-income families achieve academic success. Academic resilience is related to not only individuals but also classrooms and schools. This study aimed to construct a comprehensive resilience model in science domains that presents the image of resilient students and describes the mechanisms by…

This study examines various factors influencing teacher attrition. Relying on nationally representative, district-teacher matched data, we attempt to identify key determinants of teacher attrition by employing multilevel mixed-effects linear models, which control for commonalities among teachers within the same school district. We find that a…

While loneliness for short periods of time is normal, prolonged loneliness has severe health risks. This study aims to discover what loneliness trajectories can be found in a cohort of adolescents, how belongingness to different groups may be associated with these trajectories, and the mental, physical, and academic consequences of these…

Despite the increasing need for creativity in rapidly evolving markets and work environments, not all employees are able to engage in this crucial behavior at work. The interactionist perspective suggests that creativity in organizations can be predicted by the interplay of individual and situational elements. With this theoretical framework, the…
