Studies have shown that socially prescribed perfectionism (SPP) is a critical predictor of depression. However, few studies have explored the mechanisms underlying the effects of SPP on depression in Chinese adolescents. Accordingly, the current study aims to explore the relationship between SPP and depression among Chinese adolescents, including…

Objective: This study investigated the effect of Cognitive Rehabilitation Training (CRT) on executive functions, problem solving, and attention in students with a specific learning disorder (SLD). Method: Forty-two SLD students from the third to sixth grade (8-12 years old) were randomly assigned to 16 sessions of CRT (n = 21) or to a control (n =…

Background: The current study explored the perspectives of staff working with adults with intellectual disabilities and behaviours that challenge. We sought insight into their understanding of procedural fidelity and challenges faced when implementing behaviour support. Method: We interviewed 15 staff members supporting adults with intellectual…

This study examined the impact of the Head Start Research-based, Developmentally Informed (REDI) preschool intervention on high school outcomes and explored longitudinal mediation. 356 children (58% White, 25% Black, 17% Latinx; 54% female, 46% male; M[subscript age] = 4.49 years) were recruited from Head Start classrooms which were randomized to…

In England, there has been a shift away from 'aspiration raising' in widening participation (WP) activities aimed at improving access to higher education (HE) for students from low socio-economic status groups.

Research on the possible benefits of digital games for learning outcomes in STEM education has shown mixed results, which is another reason that this study is focused on inconsistencies in past research outcomes. Moreover, it seeks to explore the moderator variables which affect the success of digital games like game design, interactive…

This systematic review synthesizes the effects of mathematics vocabulary interventions on the mathematics outcomes of students with mathematics difficulty (MD) in Grades K through 12. We evaluated methodological rigor using three indicators: research design, implementation fidelity, and instruction in the counterfactual. Six peer-reviewed studies…

This brief helps educators implementing a Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) framework, like positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS), organize classroom supports for preventing, teaching, and responding to students' social, emotional, and behavioral (SEB) needs across the continuum.

Providing mathematics instruction and supporting students with mathematics difficulties, including students with disabilities, at risk for disabilities, or those who struggle with the content, is important and interventions must be designed to occur face-to-face or virtually. Despite limited research on providing mathematical interventions online…

Background: We investigated how many individuals with Rett syndrome were undergoing interventions to reduce stereotypic hand movements and the factors determining the presence or absence of an intervention. Method: A questionnaire was sent to 194 families. Each survey item was compared between the intervention and non-intervention groups according…

Previous research has shown that disruptive behavior can impair students' academic success (Pierce et al. in Remedial Spec Educ 25:175-188, 2004, https://doi-org.bibliotheek.ehb.be/10.1177/07419325040250030501), as well as increase teacher's stress level (Westling in Remedial Spec Educ 31:48-63, 2010, https://doi-org.bibliotheek.ehb.be/10.1177/0741932508327466). The Class Pass…

Smart phones have permeated every part of people's lives in the mobile internet era and are virtually taken for granted on a daily basis. Chinese primary school students are facing a serious problem with mobile gaming addiction as a result of their easy access to cell phones. The excessive usage of mobile games has negative impacts on children's…
