This paper examines women scientists' participation in Knowledge Exchange (KE) with nonacademic actors. We compare three KE types --informal engagement, formal engagement and commercialization-- and find significant differences in participation depending on type. In informal engagement, women and men participate equally, but women participate less…

Research on attitudes toward college students with high-functioning autism (HFA) in college settings produced mixed findings. This study builds on prior research by examining the affective and cognitive attitudes toward vignette characters with and without an autism label. Students from two public Southern California Universities (n = 712)…

It has been known for some time that academic researchers are subject to diverse relations of production that influence the direction and ultimately the value of their scientific work. In this context, this study examines how the field of educational administration is practiced at higher education institutions in Turkey, how these practices have…

In this paper, findings from an investigation into the gender imbalance in swim coaching in Australia, particularly at the higher levels of accreditation, are reported.

In this paper, I bring Selwyn's call for ecocritical awareness in…

While there is an existing scholarly debate on whether less research-oriented universities disrupt or enable higher education success, we know less about students' actual study patterns beyond static indicators, such as completion or dropout. To address this gap, this article analyzes the study trajectories of bachelor's students at German…

It is wildly held belief that one way to interest students in mathematics is to use real-world examples. Mathematics teachers are aware of the lack of interest in mathematics by many students and seek ways to improve their motivation. It seems reasonable to suggest that demonstrating to students the ubiquitous nature of mathematics may help…

Based on the theory of integrated domains in epistemology, the question of domain specificity of epistemic beliefs was investigated from a comprehensive perspective. We examined intraindividual differences in epistemic beliefs about the natural, mathematical, social, and linguistic sciences that represented almost the entire spectrum of subjects…

To sustain the higher education industry and address U.S. economic downturns, researchers must prioritize research on undergraduates aged 24 or above -- contemporary students. This empirical study finds contemporary students have lower chances of attaining degrees--"any degrees"--than their younger peers. Using nationally representative…
