Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by impairments in many functional areas requiring long-term interventions to promote autonomy. This study aims to map The Sensory Profile™ 2 (SP-2), one of the most widely used assessment tools in children with ASD, with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health for…

Background: In their daily work life, teachers experience various situations in which they need to regulate their emotions. Possible factors that influence the use of different emotion regulation strategies include the emotions and context experienced. Previous research mainly investigated teachers' emotion regulation at a single strategy level…

Both classical and contemporary definitions of education emphasise the development of learners and the discovery of their potential. The period of systemic education at all stages is an opportunity to seek this potential both at school and outside it. These are the circumstances of the development of abilities, interests and passions. In the…

In this study, we considered teachers' emotion regulation and teaching-related anger as a combined construct with multiple manifestations on classroom management practices. Four hundred and five Greek in-service teachers (M[subscript age] = 44.55, SD = 10.13; age range = 21.0, 68.0 years) participated in a cross-sectional online survey who…

During the COVID-19 pandemic, distance learning became the dominant form of education, utilizing a variety of technological resources to activate students and facilitate independent learning. In this study, latent profile analysis was used to identify different distance learning profiles and analysis of covariance was used to analyze the…

This research examines students' emotional states during a virtual course at a Finnish university. The mixed methods study drew on students' experienced emotions, perceived course value, perceived control, and open-ended descriptions related to their emotions. The sample consisted of 85 university students. Data were collected at nine measurement…

Engagement and willingness to communicate (WTC) are crucial elements for second language (L2) learning. However, little is written about whether L2 learners demonstrate heterogeneous patterns of engagement and WTC in the classroom. This study aims to identify intraindividual differences in these two constructs and examine the roles of eight…

We integrated perspectives from achievement goal theory and expectancy-value theory to investigate how undergraduate students' (N = 475) achievement motivation might influence their instructional dissent. A latent profile analysis of students' achievement goals, performance self-efficacy, task value, and perceived cost revealed four distinct…

The present study investigated adolescents' emotional anticipation profiles at the prospect of high school graduation and examined whether these profiles were similar across gender, educational track, and grade. Our results shed light on profiles that were distinct in level and shape: a Positive Anticipatory-Positive Anticipated emotions profile,…

This study extends the doctoral education literature by examining how social support and social identification, as they apply to peers, supervisors, and the academic community, are related to mental wellbeing and psychological distress in doctoral students by using person-centred analysis to create social profiles. Doctoral students (N = 200)…

Academic emotions are not mutually exclusive, and students can experience various emotions simultaneously. We aimed at identifying distinct emotion profiles in mathematics in the lowest-ability tier in lower secondary school. Also, we investigated the patterns of change to students' mathematics emotion profiles in Grades 7 and 8, and whether an…

Background: Achievement emotions are important for mathematical achievement. However, it is currently unclear how specific combinations of emotions--and their associated control and value appraisals--relate to mathematics performance, especially in younger students. Aims: The aims of this study were to (i) identify heterogeneous profiles of…

Media literacy has been gaining traction as a part of higher education curricula to support learning as educational institutions are recognizing the importance of developing students' media literacy skills. However, students' emotional reactions towards media literacy can be vastly different and, in turn, may impact their perception of truth and…

Objective: The first objective of this research was to investigate the interrelationships of regulatory focus (i.e. promotion and prevention) and the ability to direct attention when studying. The second was to examine whether unobserved groups of individuals having distinct combinations of regulatory focus and directing attention differed on…

Background: Previous studies on reading engagement have generally used variable-centred approaches to examine whole-sample averages. Few have assumed a person-centred approach, especially latent profile analysis (LPA), to examine students' reading engagement profiles. Although one study employed LPA to identify the reading engagement profiles of…
