Collecting biological data in representative surveys is becoming more common due to their potential to inform research and policy. Nevertheless, using nurses to collect these data can lead to unintended effects. In this paper, we investigate how nurses influence the non-response process by looking at five waves of data coming from two surveys in…

Multistage testing (MST), an adaptive test delivery mode that involves algorithmic selection of predefined item modules rather than individual items, offers a practical alternative to linear and fully computerized adaptive testing. However, interactions across stages between item modules and examinee groups can lead to challenges in item…

Background/purpose: Contemporary teaching focuses on the students' active role in the acquisition of knowledge and largely neglects the role of emotions. Given the importance of empathy when it comes to the emotional development of the individual, and the opportunities offered by history as a subject with regard to encouraging empathy, the main…

Pictures are commonly used to represent problems. However, it is unclear how the addition of pictures affects students' problem-solving performance. The multimedia effect in problem solving describes the phenomenon whereby an individual's problem-solving performance is enhanced when equivalent pictures are added to illustrate or replace part of…

Despite the importance of feedback uptake in higher education, there is still much to be learned about supporting it. Recent perspectives hold that guiding learners through feedback uptake-oriented activities may also help them to develop feedback literacy. However, due to the acceleration of digitisation trends in higher education, there is an…

New Brunswick has experienced a decline in population in recent years. Successive governments are attempting to increase its population through various population and economic strategies, including immigration. Our research investigates how New Brunswick educators and school leaders are responding to the demographic changes in their schools and…

Student evaluations of teaching are widely used to assess instructors and courses. Using a model-based approach and Bayesian methods, we examine how the direction of the scale, labels on scales, and the number of options affect the ratings. We conduct a within-participants experiment in which respondents evaluate instructors and lectures using…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate perceptions of principal preparation program candidates regarding the impact professional coaching and field supervision had on the development of their administrative mindsets. A secondary purpose was to determine if there was a significant difference in perceptions regarding the impact that professional…

Mistakes occur frequently in mathematics. Reframing mistakes into positive moments can be psychologically important in a student's educational journey. We investigated two tertiary math classes that explicitly valued mistakes through a pedagogical requirement called "productive failure". For a percentage of their grade, students…

The year 2021 is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. With the rapid development of red tourism in China, the importance of red publicity translation has become increasingly prominent. How to evaluate the readability of red publicity translation has gradually become a hot issue. Taking the English versions of…

A grasp of the fact that emotional displays may not match a person's underlying feelings has been thought to develop in the elementary school years. Two prominent scales address the issue of how one might feel a negative feeling but need to display an different expression. Data from these scales suggest that children's comprehension of the need to…

This study introduces a longitudinal diagnostic classification model, called the LTA+HDCM, which is a fusion of latent transition analysis (LTA; Collins & Flaherty, 2002; Collins & Wugalter, 1992) and the hierarchical diagnostic classification model (HDCM; Templin & Bradshaw, 2014). The primary goals in this study are (1) to evaluate…
