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…

What are the psychological consequences of receiving direct and indirect help in childhood? We conducted three preregistered experiments (N = 619, 7-9 years, 80% Dutch, 51% girls, 49% boys, mostly higher socioeconomic status) in the Netherlands (July 2020-July 2022). Children received direct help (correct answer), indirect help (hint), or no help.…

Drawing on recent emotion and multimedia research, we conducted an experimental study with university students combining induction of enjoyment or anger prior to learning with boring learning environment to scrutinise how emotions experienced prior to learning relate to experiencing boredom, anger, and enjoyment during learning and to students'…

The current study aimed to investigate the relationship among two fundamental emotional beliefs (controllability and goodness), emotion regulation strategies, and anxiety symptoms. The study evaluated the mediatory effects of emotion regulation strategies on the relationship between emotion beliefs and anxiety. Grade 7 and 8 adolescents in China…

This study examined the impact of mindfulness on academic emotions (AE) and cognitive flexibility (CF) among undergraduate Chinese students. Data was collected from 403 participants using three validated instruments: the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), the shortened Academic Emotions Questionnaire (AEQ-S), and the Cognitive Flexibility…

Music is a powerful medium to study emotion recognition. However, findings are mixed regarding the proficiency of young children to detect emotion conveyed by music. Moreover, we lack knowledge about music emotion recognition and callous-unemotional traits, which portend risk for externalizing problems. The current study examined the performance…

In the context of the use of personal response systems (PRSs) in the classroom, the two main motivations of the study were to investigate whether boredom with the devices decreased students' perceived learning and learning satisfaction, and whether teachers' provision of feedback moderated these negative effects. A survey was conducted among 172…

Knowledge Building principles such as real ideas, authentic problems; epistemic agency; and collective responsibility for advancement of community knowledge convey ways in which Knowledge Building mirrors work in knowledge-creating communities. Previous studies suggest Metadiscourse--discourse about discourse--helps sustain and improve community…

The appraisal theories of emotions and existing studies have indicated the relationships between emotions and goals. However, little research has investigated the role of teachers' student-oriented goals for their emotions. This study examined how teachers' teaching-related emotions relate to their student-oriented goals directly or indirectly…

In this qualitative study, we analyze the role of emotion in teacher candidates' (TCs') sociocultural constructions of youth during student teaching. We explored the following questions: How do TCs reinforce and/or disrupt perspectives on teaching adolescents during discussions about classroom field incidents? How and with what effect do emotions…

Purpose: Poor sleep is associated with short-term dysregulation of mood and is a risk factor for major depressive disorder (MDD). This study examines whether objectively measured sleep in late adolescence prospectively predicts major depressive episode (MDE) onset in early adulthood as well as whether daily affect mediates this association.…

This study examined the reciprocal relation between lesson-specific perceived cognitive appraisals and academic emotions on an intra-individual level. A daily diary study was conducted using a sample of 266 Chinese Han students (Grades 7-8; 56.8% boys; M[subscript age] = 13.70, SD[subscript age] = 0.52) during 10 mathematics lessons in 2022.…

Absolute standing feedback has shown greater psychological impact than relative standing feedback. The purpose of this experiment was to examine whether the superior impact of absolute feedback depends on the reward criterion. Participants completed a math test and were randomly assigned to one of the eight conditions in a 2 (reward criterion:…

Researchers have examined autonomous sensory meridian responses (ASMRs) focusing on known experiencers and the nuances surrounding those occurrences. This exploratory study was developed in response to existing ASMR research focusing on individuals who were not necessarily known ASMR experiencers. My goal was to better understand whether these…

When a learner receives feedback, important motivational and emotional processes are triggered that control whether and how the learner reengages in a learning activity and successfully adjusts in response to what the feedback suggests. We aim to highlight how motivation and emotion processes influence feedback effectiveness, and how our…
