Harish Moni Prakash; Andrew F. Heckler – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2025
Accuracy on assessments is commonly studied in education research but response time (RT) is relatively less investigated even though decades of research in cognitive sciences indicate that time can be an important dimension for understanding student learning. To better understand RT and the potentially important relations between accuracy and RT…

Aycock, Lauren M.; Hazari, Zahra; Brewe, Eric; Clancy, Kathryn B. H.; Hodapp, Theodore; Goertzen, Renee Michelle – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2019
Sexual harassment occurs more frequently in male-dominated fields and physics is a more male-dominated field than most other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. Thus, it is important to examine the occurrence and impact of sexual harassment on women in physics. A survey of undergraduate women, who attended a conference…

Timonen, Laura; Juuti, Kalle; Harmoinen, Sari – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
Research on student retention in higher education (HE) physics could benefit by studying emotions in the context of engagement and learning. However, popular retention theories include only a narrow selection of emotions, creating a need to look elsewhere. In this study, we borrow the lens of an affective engagement model, the framework of an…
