Objectives: Explore associations between eating disorders (EDs) and sleep duration and the impact of depression symptoms (DSs) in American college students. Participants: College students from 2018 to 2019 Healthy Minds Study. Methods: Multivariate logistic regression evaluated associations between EDs (bulimia, anorexia, binge eating [BED]) and…

Despite the growing interest in emotions in engineering education, empirical research on incorporating them into engineering ethics education is limited. Therefore, we designed this experimental study to assess how different methods for integrating compassion into engineering ethics cases influenced the intensity of compassion associated with the…

Work-integrated learning (WIL) has the capacity to combine academic knowledge with practical experience through specialized programs. While there is extensive literature on WIL, there exists a dearth of research on learners' perspectives, particularly in comparative studies across majors. This study compares the perspectives of 164 engineering…

Studying determinant factors for effective learning communities has become a priority for sustainable education in Yemen. Yet, comprehensive knowledge of academic self-efficacy (ASE), academic commitment (AC), and learning outcomes (LOs) variables is limited in higher education, particularly. This research aimed to examine the role of these…

A dissertation is presented on a teaching program for emotional intelligence (EI) and empathy with a cohort of nursing students enrolled in a traditional, undergraduate nursing college in the Northeast region of the United States (US). An interactive teaching program was used with various media to present new material and learning activities…

Background/purpose: Learner autonomy has been a burgeoning interest among language researchers and practitioners. Given extensive research into the construct, it remains necessary to explore it from a wider context. This study thus aims to investigate the perceptions of autonomy in English language learning among English major students at a…

This study aims to compare the distance education process and system-related satisfaction of students using different learning management systems (Moodle, Google Classroom). Research samples of this mixed explanatory design comprise a total of 7318 students enrolled in Usak University for the 2020-2021 academic year. The sample categories include…

This study investigates scientific temper among undergraduate students with respect to demographic variables such as gender, stream, caste, family types, and locality. The study included 108 undergraduate students selected by stratified purposive sampling. Primary data were collected using the standardized "Scientific Temper Inventory."…

The purpose of this research was to study the level of environmental conservation awareness and the relationship between factors affecting the awareness of environmental conservation of undergraduate students. To study and compare factors affecting environmental conservation awareness among undergraduate students of different genders and academic…

We contribute to the higher education returns discourse by examining perceptions among college graduates. Using 2021 U.S. Survey of Household Economics of Decisionmaking data, we observe that over 80% of degree holders perceive that they received positive financial returns from college, while only 7% of college degree holders regret their decision…

Purpose: The objective of the study was to analyze the perception of knowledge and experience development in social entrepreneurship in students of a university certified by Ashoka as a Changemaker campus and to identify data that argue for equitable training among all students regardless of gender and discipline studied.…

Background: We used an opportunity gap framework to analyze the pathways through which students enter into and depart from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) degrees in an R1 higher education institution and to better understand the demographic disparities in STEM degree attainment. Results: We found disparities in 6-year…

COVID-19 has disrupted higher education globally, and there is scarce information about the "learning loss" in university students throughout this crisis. The goal of the study was to compare scores in a large-scale knowledge diagnostic exam applied to students admitted to the university, before and during the pandemic. Research design…

First-year students at universities continue to experience adjustment challenges which are an indication of low academic buoyancy. Academic buoyancy is a student's ability to succeed amidst academic difficulties and setbacks in academic settings. This study examined the gender differences in academic buoyancy among first-year undergraduate…

Contribution: This article examines how military leaves of absence affect the academic performance of engineering students compared to those who did not take a military leave of absence or took only a general break. Gender-related differences were also analyzed since only male students take a military break. Background: Recognizing the effects of…
