Schwab, Susanne; Kulmhofer-Bommer, Andrea; Hoffmann, Lisa; Goldan, Janka – Educational Psychology, 2021

Recent studies indicate, however, that teachers' self-efficacy (TSE) beliefs vary depending on the individual student (so-called 'student-specific teacher self-efficacy', S-S TSE). Students' gender, their language background,…

Parrisius, Cora; Gaspard, Hanna; Zitzmann, Steffen; Trautwein, Ulrich; Nagengast, Benjamin – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
In their situated expectancy-value theory, Eccles and Wigfield (2020) assume students' competence and value beliefs to be situation-specific and thereby to be "situative" in nature. Even though motivation research has gradually been developing an understanding of this situative nature, for instance, by disentangling time-consistent and…

Heyes, Joshua M. – Sex Education: Sexuality, Society and Learning, 2022
Thinking sexuality education and religion together often results in antagonisms that pit religious and secular values against each other. Political theology provides new insights into this tendency by showing how modern concepts of political legitimacy are based on secularised Christian theology. Neoliberal schooling, public sexual health and…

Hänze, Martin; Müller, Marion; Berger, Roland – Educational Psychology, 2018
Cross-age tutoring is characterised by status and age differences between tutors and tutees. Tutees are often inactive in this setting, because responsibility for effective learning is transferred to the more experienced tutors. This study focused on improving the outcomes of cross-age tutoring for tutees by providing tutors with a tutor training…
