Self-harm and suicidal behaviors are prevalent among autistic adults without intellectual disability (ID). Emotion dysregulation (ED), the difficulty in modulating emotions, has been identified as an important risk factor. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has been proved effective to treat ED in disorders other than autism spectrum disorder. Our…

This study aimed to explore the self-regulatory experiences and perceptions of drivers' attentional processes on the road, via a metacognitive framework. A total of 46 Australian drivers participated in a phone interview and thematic analysis was applied to the data. The results revealed that effective self-reported attention regulation was…

Self-regulation is thought to show heterotypic continuity--its individual differences endure but its behavioral manifestations change across development. Thus, different measures across time may be necessary to account for heterotypic continuity of self-regulation. This longitudinal study examined children's (N = 108) self-regulation development…

This study compared the differences between students entering university directly from high school vs. those transferring from other higher education institutions for the variables of the academic self-control model (general resourcefulness, academic resourcefulness, academic self-efficacy, preparedness, failure attributions, and university…

Several studies have investigated the effect of induced mood state on conceptual breadth (breadth and flexibility of thought). Early studies concluded that inducing a positive mood state broadened cognition, while inducing a negative mood state narrowed cognition. However, recent reports have suggested that valence and arousal can each influence…

Despite the importance of self-control for well-being and adjustment, its development from early childhood to early adolescence has been relatively understudied. We addressed the development of mother-reported self-control in what is likely the largest and longest longitudinal twin study of the topic to this day (N = 1889 individual children with…

Nursing professional development (NPD) is an evolving nursing specialty role that combines expertise in clinical nursing with ongoing education in acute care settings. A novice NPD practitioner may not understand the complexities, demands, and stressors that accompany a work role transition. This qualitative case study used thematic analysis and…

The current study aims to investigate the interplay between teacher and student emotions in mathematics and the triggers of student emotions from the perspectives of their mathematics teachers. Mixed-methods research was employed. In the quantitative phase, 214 middle school mathematics teachers and their seventh and eighth graders (5475 students…

This study aimed to introduce an ego-resiliency questionnaire for preadolescents (the ER-P) by restructuring the ER89 using the data of 1398 preadolescents from the Panel Study on Korean Children. The ER-P was proposed as a 10-item second-order instrument with two factors (Optimal Regulation and Openness to Life Experiences). The ER-P achieved…

In this study, we investigated perceived social-emotional competence (PSEC) among 373 Australian secondary school students in relation to parent ratings of social-emotional skills, and perceived teacher and parental autonomy support. Using bifactor exploratory structural equation modelling, we examined five dimensions of PSEC (perceived competence…

The Coping with Toddlers' Negative Emotions Scale (CTNES) assesses parents' emotional socialization of toddlers. The original measure is lengthy, with 82 items in total, and no short-form version is available to date. The objective of the current study was to create a short-form version of the CTNES. We aimed to: (1) test the CTNES subscales…

Background: Many children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) demonstrate impairment in social skills. However, ADHD rarely occurs in isolation, with approximately one-third of children with ADHD having one additional disorder, and another third having two or three comorbidities. Few studies have considered the global and specific…

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is a tool that promises efficiency and customization for teachers and students alike but also carries risks of dependency and detachment. This report aims to explore new questions for educators, system leaders, and tool developers such as how much cognitive effort AI should alleviate, how much it should…

This study aims to enhance communicative competencies in future teachers, a frequently neglected area in educational training by integrating illusionism as an innovative pedagogical tool. A quantitative analysis was conducted using a validated questionnaire across three dimensions to assess the communicative competence levels of 81 trainee…

As students' emotional self-regulation impacts their engagement in learning, as well as their mental health, researchers have called for schools to implement systems of emotional support. However, because school resources are limited, and the demands on teachers' time continue to grow, identifying emotional self-regulation interventions that…
