Using narrative inquiry, this study investigated the lived experience of embodied cognition--the integrated emotional and intellectual functions "of" cognition--in transformative learning in the context of a disorienting dilemma. These two fundamental "conscious" experiences of embodied cognition are preceded by three…

Purpose: This study aims to consider the role of emotions, especially those related to empathy, in promoting a more humane education that enables students to reach out across kinship chasms to promote the development of communities predicated on a shared value on mutual respect. This attention to empathy includes a review of the rational basis for…

Due to the increased awareness that emotions have on student outcomes within the classroom setting, gaining insight on the emotional socialization process within the classroom setting may lead to continued improvements within the social-emotional learning curricula in the school environment. The goal of this study was to examine the relation…

Background: This study explored the physiological correlates of students' self-reported emotions in ecologically valid settings by combining biosignal data (on physical and cardiac activity) and experience sampling method (ESM) data. Aims: The aim was to examine the concurrent associations between self-reported excitement, calmness, anxiety, and…

Team experiences afford opportunities for students to expand their self-knowledge based on peer feedback, yet feedback processes tend to be cumbersome and difficult to manage. Thus, educators often provide feedback only on the team's work output. The purpose of this article is to introduce a simple, structured exercise in which team members share…

The purpose of this study was to explore how first-grade teachers respond to pupils in emotional distress within the framework of co-regulation. Co-regulation in this context refers to an adult-child interactive process that supports children in learning to regulate their emotions. We conducted focus group interviews at four primary schools in…

The present research aimed to explore the dynamic growth of two emotional constructs: foreign language enjoyment (FLE) and foreign language learning boredom (FLLB) among L2 learners. To do so, we used a method that would capture the inherent dynamicity of L2 learners' enjoyment and boredom during an EFL course. To this aim, a bivariate latent…

Principals around the world are in crisis. There is a looming shortage of people who want to take up the role, and principals deal with heightened emotions each day -- both their own and those of others. The work of school leaders is emotionally intense, and the intense nature of their work has direct consequences for principals' health and…

We care about others' opinions of us and regulate our emotions to make positive impressions. This form of impression management may change during ontogeny as children become increasingly sensitive to others. To examine whether self-conscious emotions are influenced by audience presence across the lifespan, we induced embarrassment and pride in n =…

The aim of this study is to investigate how the emotional orientations in peer assessment affect student performance. Given that the emotional data in peer comments exist in the form of unstructured text, this study applied the text sentiment analysis method to the mining and analysis of peer-review texts. For this purpose, emotional orientations…

In this article, we examine how thinking with affect theory offers fertility within higher education studies to see and do teaching and learning differently. For many educators in universities, the idea that teaching is a cognitive process of information transmission is still taken-for-granted. These beliefs are visible through the persistence of…

A significant tension exists between the necessity for teachers to regulate their emotions and the tendency to overlook these emotions in STEM education. Teachers' emotion regulation is inherently context-sensitive and discipline-specific. Therefore, it is crucial for researchers to explore the particularities of teachers' emotion regulation in…

The study intended to describe profiles of three achievement emotions (enjoyment, boredom, anxiety), their associations with each other and with control-value appraisals within the framework of the control-value theory. A total of 2002 Chinese university EFL students from 11 universities in China participated in the questionnaire survey.…

While previous work has highlighted the possible impacts of undertaking emotionally challenging research, it is only recently, particularly within the UK with the 2028 Research Excellence Framework focus on research culture, that this subject is starting to gain senior leadership attention. Funded by the UK Research and Innovation, Researcher…

How is it possible to research emotions with minimal disruption? In the research that was the basis for this Case Study, the researcher wanted to understand how participants in a writing group experienced emotions during their academic writing and how they used emotion regulation and interpersonal emotion regulation during writing group sessions.…
