The pedagogical approach--Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL)--has been widely adopted around the globe with its dual aims of developing students' second language (L2) proficiency and mastering content knowledge simultaneously. However, its effectiveness remains inconsistent. This inconsistency has led researchers to call for an…

Delay of gratification tasks have an impressive predictive value for various outcomes and are designed to measure self-regulation. Since many behavioural and psychological conditions in children are related to limitations in self-regulation, the extent to which delay tasks can be used as a screening for the detection of psychopathology is…

The purpose of this phenomenographic study was to examine the different ways in which a group of research assistants who varied by university, department and gender understand the anger they feel towards the faculty members with whom they interact. Phenomenographic analysis was conducted on data obtained through face-to-face, semi-structured…

Many AIED systems support self-regulated learning, yet, support for setting and achieving practice goals has received little attention. We examine how middle school students respond to system-recommended practice goals, building on the success of similar data-driven recommendations in other domains. We introduce an adaptive dashboard in an…

A base model was tested composed of insecure attachment at age 3 years, poor emotional and behavioral self-regulation at age 5 years, and weak empathy at age 9 years predicted delinquency at age 15 years with and without the intervening influence of two dimensions of antisocial cognition: moral neutralization and cognitive impulsivity, both of…

This study investigates the cognitive processes of novice students in science learning, with a specific focus on how inhibitory control is employed to overcome a common student misconception about the buoyant force in liquid, which leads to the belief that "the greater the depth an object is in a liquid, the greater the buoyant force it…

Children's academic skills, particularly in the early stages of life, are significantly shaped by the support and resources available in their home learning environments. However, the underlying mechanisms by which the home learning environment influences children's academic skills are not fully understood. To address this gap, the present study…

This study examines the relationship between structural and pragmatic language skills, emotion regulation, and social relationships in children from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds. The sample comprised 40 participants (mean age = 9 years; SD = 3.6). Language and social-emotional skills were measured using parent-reported…

Background: An interplay of emotional and cognitive aspects underlies academic performance. We focused on the contribution of such interplay to text comprehension. Aims: We investigated the effect of worry on comprehension and the role of two potential moderators of this effect: physiological self-regulation as resting heart rate variability (HRV)…

Background: Group affective states for learning are constantly formed through socio-emotional interactions. However, it remains unclear how the affective states vary during collaboration and how they occur with regulation of learning. Appropriate methods are needed to track both group affective states and these interaction processes. Aims: The…

Research Findings: This study (N = 300; M age = 44.72 months, SD = 4.39) aimed to elucidate the distinct pathways leading to maladjustment in early childhood by examining whether or not peer victimization differentially predicts aggression and internalizing problems. Hypotheses were guided by the relational vulnerability model, which suggests peer…

This article reviews a mindfulness intervention and its effect on emotional regulation and impulse control among middle school students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Substantial literature exists to support the use of mindfulness among adolescents with ADHD to improve negative symptoms of emotional regulation and…

This article presents a comparative analysis of the professional identity formation of three female principals of schools serving disadvantaged population in Spain. The focus on identity formation is complemented with parallel attention on gender and leader's emotionality issues. The study embraces a qualitative-interpretive stance with a…

Transition into higher education (HE) has received increased interest in recent years, since it represents a challenging period for students. The aim of this study was to further understand the associations between self-efficacy, academic achievements, and regulation in first-year university students during their transition into HE. The…

Little is known about the strategies elementary school students use to self-regulate their learning while in a hypermedia environment. This exploratory study investigated the self-regulatory strategies that young students (N = 48, M[subscript age] = 10.75) utilized while individually completing a 20-min online research task about space. Video data…
