Thomas D. Griffin; Allison J. Jaeger; M. Anne Britt; Jennifer Wiley – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2024
Relying on multiple documents to answer questions is becoming common for both academic and personal inquiry tasks. These tasks often require students to explain phenomena by taking various causal factors that are mentioned separately in different documents and integrating them into a coherent multi-causal explanation of some phenomena. However,…

Quoc Hoa Tran-Duong – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2024
The quality of products from the causal mapping process and the effect of factors related to causal map quality are unlikely to be the same for students at different educational levels. However, there is a lack of studies that provide insights into causal maps constructed by primary school students to reveal appropriate strategies. This study…

Jogy George; N. R. Suresh Babu – European Journal of Education, 2025
Imitated misbehaviours as a prevalent form of interaction between children often disrupt their classroom experiences. Teachers, being the authority figure in the classroom, are expected to manage imitated misbehaviours and create a classroom climate that can positively influence the children. In line with this, this study analyses the conceptions…

Bryan Keller; Zach Branson – Asia Pacific Education Review, 2024
Causal inference involves determining whether a treatment (e.g., an education program) causes a change in outcomes (e.g., academic achievement). It is well-known that causal effects are more challenging to estimate than associations. Over the past 50 years, the potential outcomes framework has become one of the most widely used approaches for…

As societies age, Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia have become more common. Previous research has shown that people with more education are less likely to develop dementia or have it occur later in life. The authors show that this relationship is likely causal, both in the United States and in six lower- and middle-income countries.…
