Academia, in its quest to attract and hire qualified faculty, can capitalize on recent trends as reflected in career trajectories. One such trend includes practicing professionals, who make the decision to engage in a career pivot from industry into academia. Two recent shifts in academia highlight the importance of attracting practicing…

This research examines the role of input and process-based approaches in enhancing faculty members' commitment to their research careers in the context of higher education. Specifically, we investigate the mediating effect of research self-efficacy on the relationship between professional research network and commitment to research career, as well…

This study explored the experiences of undocumented immigrants who made the journey from central Mexico to Texas, revealing the contributing push and pull factors (violence, education, lack of opportunity, hope, and better life) that led to their journey. Current literature presents only parts of the journey, experiences, and struggles of…

In structural equation modeling, relationships between exogenous and endogenous variables are often assumed to be linear though that is not a requirement. A recent trend in modeling latent interactions and moderations has stimulated further inquiry into nonlinear relationships and the analysis techniques associated with those types of models.…

As the transnational education market continues to grow, Asian universities are experiencing a more significant influx of short-term visiting and exchange students from western nations. This article summarises research on the motivations of American international students studying in Thailand. The purpose of this study is to better understand the…

Self-regulatory learning skills are recognized as an essential factor motivating students to learn. The lack of self-regulatory learning skills could reduce students' learning performance.
