Thirty-eight interviewers with no prior investigative interviewing experience questioned school-aged children (N = 68, aged 6-10 years) about a personally experienced event. These interviewers relied primarily on question types that are not recommended by interviewing guidelines. Providing interviewers with misleading prior knowledge exacerbated…

Introduction: Incidence rates for developing breast cancer are similar for women regardless of intellectual ability. However, women with an intellectual disability present with advanced breast cancers, which often have a poor prognosis. Method: A structured narrative review of the literature was performed to explore the concepts of breast…

Dyslexic children often fail to correct errors while reading aloud, and dyslexic adolescents and adults exhibit lower amplitudes of the error-related negativity (ERN)--the neural response to errors--than typical readers during silent reading. Past researchers therefore suggested that dyslexia may arise from a faulty error detection mechanism that…

To provide insight into online learners' interests in various knowledge from course discussion texts, modeling learners' sentiments and interests at different granularities are of great importance. In this article, the proposed framework combines a deep convolutional neural network and a hierarchical topic model to discover the hidden structure of…

The present ex post facto correlational research is aimed at exploring the relationship between grammar and vocabulary knowledge components in L2 reading comprehension. The study focuses on two cohorts of EFL students with different proficiency levels: more proficient (\MP) and less proficient (LP). Two dimensions of grammar knowledge are…

The present study examined how children spontaneously represent facial cues associated with emotion. 106 three- to six-year-old children (48 male, 58 female; 9.4% Asian, 84.0% White, 6.6% more than one race) and 40 adults (10 male, 30 female; 10% Hispanic, 30% Asian, 2.5% Black, 57.5% White) were recruited from a Midwestern city (2019-2020), and…

We present a role play business simulation that fosters experiential learning of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC). A web portal simulates stakeholder-to-student interactions during the analysis phase. The simulation generalizes to other business domains by overcoming learning constraints such as non-collocated and asynchronous students,…

There is an extensive need for school systems to reliably assess the data literacy and data use skills of their educators. To address this need, the current study seeks to refine the NU Data Knowledge Scale (NUDKS) for assessing teacher data literacy for classroom data. A data-based decision-making framework provides the theoretical underpinnings…

Open-book examinations (OBEs) will likely become increasingly important assessment tools. We investigated how access to open-book resources affected questions testing factual recall, which might be easy to look-up, versus questions testing higher-order cognitive domains. Few studies have investigated OBEs using modern Internet resources or as…

Computer science works as hardware and software increasingly takes place in each of our daily lives with effective products and services. As in all areas, it is an inevitable part of learning and teaching computer-based environment-tools and equipment in the fate and type of education, including early childhood. Computer science products may…

The present study had the purpose of investigating empirically the structure and relationships among mathematical imagination, mathematical knowledge and mathematical mindset. The three factors are constituent parts of the Innovation Engine model by Seelig (inGenius: A Crash course on creativity, HarperOne-2012) and can influence creative…

Teacher evaluation has been at the forefront of accountability-related reforms in the United States due to the realization that teacher effectiveness is a major contributor to student success. Data from evaluations have revealed vital insights into contributing factors to teacher effectiveness and generated valuable information for hiring,…

It is often hypothesized that prior knowledge strongly predicts learning performance. It can affect learning positively mediated through some processes and negatively mediated through others. We examined the relation between prior knowledge and learning in a meta-analysis of 8776 effect sizes. The stability of individual differences, that is, the…

The purpose of this quantitative ex post facto research study is to determine if there is a difference in students' pre-calculus knowledge and mathematical skills achievement based on pre-calculus instructional conditions and gender at a community college in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. Three research questions were used to…

Trauma-informed care in schools has been a relatively newly researched topic, albeit with limited focus on the efficacy of related practices from the perspective of those implementing them. Educators have been considered service providers with limited knowledge of trauma and trauma-informed care as their career education programs tend not to…
