War poses a unique crisis situation for special education teachers, with uncertainty, lack of resources, and fears for their own and their students' safety, compounded by a complex student population. This study explored Israeli special education preschool teachers' stress and well-being in the war that began on October 7, 2023, focusing on how…

This study examined the professional identity development of counselors-in-training (CITs), considering the influence of personal and program factors. The data were collected from 198 master's-level CITs enrolled in CACREP-accredited programs. Results of hierarchical multiple regression analyses indicated that CITs' personal traits, such as gender…

Flipped classrooms (FCs) in K-12 schools are growing in popularity. However, previous studies have reported inconsistent findings on the effects of FCs, and the conditions under which FCs are effective remain unclear. This three-level meta-analysis synthesized the effects of FCs versus traditional classrooms (TCs) on various learning domains among…

Understanding factors which might influence teachers' knowledge of educational neuroscience is essential for designing effective initial training and professional development programmes. This study assessed teachers' knowledge using our novel Educational Neuroscience Knowledge Test (ENKT). The validated ENKT provided a structured measure of…

The decision to pursue a legal education can be life-changing, but students often receive outdated advice from legal studies faculty. This article seeks to educate legal studies faculty advising potential law school students. We review the Law School Admission Test and consider how predictive that measurement may be of various forms of success. We…

Tele-assessment of autism in early childhood has increased. However, it is unclear how autism screening tools (M-CHAT-R, DCI) function as part of tele-assessment and relate to a commonly used tele-assessment instrument, the TAP. 361 families from a clinically referred sample of children (mean age: 27.63 months, sd = 4.86 months) completed the…

This study explored the relationships between psychological wellbeing, religiosity and religious coping amongst adolescent students attending post-primary schools in Ireland. The current paper reports on the quantitative data and findings arising from a mixed-methods study. Participants were post-primary school students (N = 110) aged between 15…

The study aims to understand the relationship between predictors of student teachers' intention to implement education for sustainable development (ESD). It proposes and evaluates the intention to implement the ESD model, which identifies the following predictors of student teachers' intention to implement ESD: (I) teacher self-efficacy, (II)…

During the final years of secondary school, students engage in the decision-making process regarding their important choice of university career. Individual differences in how people approach this process could be attributed to personality traits, gender, and the specific year of attendance. To investigate this hypothesis, a study was conducted…

Youth with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often exhibit impairments in mathematics, but long-term math development into adulthood, particularly in females, is underexplored. We characterized trajectories of math achievement in girls with ADHD and an age- and ethnicity-matched comparison sample from childhood through early…

This study aims to examine university students' intentions to use artificial intelligence (AI) applications in their educational processes within the context of job characteristics (JC), technology characteristics (TC), task-technology fit (TTF), and self-efficacy (SE). The research was conducted with 965 students enrolled in Information…

This study investigated whether learners' task motivation predicts their task engagement, and whether their task engagement is associated with subsequent L2 learning. Task motivation was operationalized through situated expectancy-value theory (SEVT; Eccles & Wigfield, 2020), a model of the proximal (i.e., task-specific) social-cognitive…

High stress predicts mood and anxiety disorders and can necessitate clinical intervention (Steffen et al., 2014). Language learners often experience high stress during intensive study abroad (SA) programs (Dewey et al., 2018), which can hinder communication (Buttaro, 2004; Peck, 1974). Acculturative stress is common among second language (L2)…

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly transforming higher education by enhancing teaching methodologies, automating administrative tasks, and supporting research initiatives. Faculty adoption of generative AI is crucial for maximizing its potential benefits; however, its acceptance remains inconsistent due to factors such as…

Objective: College students experience elevated rates of alcohol and sexual risk behaviors, but underrepresentation of rural institutions precludes tailored intervention. This study characterizes prevalence and short-term alcohol-sex risk at a rural institution. Participants: Undergraduates at a rural northeastern university. Method: Online health…
