Inner speech processes are thought to be associated with decreases in cognitive performance in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although verbal thinking is also a key component in emotional responses, no studies have investigated whether inner speech is linked to emotion regulation in ASD. The aim of this study was to investigate whether inner…

Previous studies have often demonstrated that educational television can have a positive effect on learning outcomes in low-income countries when delivered in controlled settings. However, existing research in low-resource contexts has scarcely considered the association between child outcomes and viewing in usual environments (ie, at their home,…

To explore socially desirable responding in telephone surveys, this study examines response latencies in answers to 27 questions in a corpus of 319 audio-recorded voice interviews on iPhones. Response latencies were compared when respondents (a) answered questions on sensitive vs. nonsensitive topics (as classified by online raters); (b) produced…

This study is situated in a mathematics teaching practice setting where reflective practice by pre-service teachers was investigated. Instead of having a one-on-one lesson observation, followed by reflection thereafter, this study looked at the joint lesson observation and reflection amongst three student teachers and a supervisor/researcher. The…

Knowledge tracing (KT), the task of tracking the knowledge state of each student over time, has been assessed actively by artificial intelligence researchers. Recent reports have described that Deep-IRT, which combines Item Response Theory (IRT) with a deep learning model, provides superior performance. It can express the abilities of each student…

We propose an adaptation of the Glicko-2 rating system in a K-12 math learning software setting, where variable time intervals between solution attempts and the stratification of student-item pairings by grade levels necessitate modification of the original model. The discrete-time stochastic process underlying the original system has been…

Psychometricians at an organization named the Education and Training Evaluation Commission (ETEC) developed a new test scoring method called the latent D-scoring method (DSM-L) where it is believed that the new method itself is much easier and more efficient to use compared to the Item Response Theory (IRT) method. However, there are no studies…

Clinical supervision is vital to counselor education, and the strength of the supervisory alliance (SA) has been identified as essential for effective supervision. To monitor and facilitate the strength of the SA, clinical supervision guidelines direct supervisors to request feedback from trainees about supervision. However, no research exploring…

Providing teachers with professional development leads to enhanced instructional practices that influence student achievement. Because of low student achievement scores, secondary school administrators at a district in the western United States implemented administrator-led classroom walkthroughs (CWs) as ongoing professional development to…

Technology has become very prevalent amongst school-aged students. Students have access to cellphones, iPads, and other technological gadgets to cyberbully others. Cyberbullying is a growing trend that exists within communities and trickles into the school setting. Teachers now face new challenges in educating students on using technology and…

The present study examined the moderating effects of parental meta-emotion philosophy on the relation between family stress and youth internalizing symptoms. A two-study approach was applied to explore these relations in socioeconomically diverse samples with respect to a self- reported parental emotion coaching (EC) and parental emotion…

The purpose of this action research study was to understand and strengthen the learning culture of one curriculum specialist team working remotely at Newco (pseudonym). The study participants were curriculum specialists who claimed they had little time to learn independently or share knowledge with teammates due to the isolation of remote work and…

The novel COVID-19 pandemic has caused a rupture in the trajectory of education worldwide. Students, families and schools are experiencing unprecedented times and are navigating uncharted territory together in how we educate our students. In the U.S., it has been noted that the schism within education as a result of the pandemic is the biggest…

This is a qualitative study that explores the perceptions of elementary principals with regards to homework practices in their schools. The purpose of the study was to investigate which strategies are believed by principals to be more valuable when assigning homework in grades three through five as well as their knowledge, and beliefs pertaining…

Instructors often write feedback on students' proofs even if there is no expectation for the students to revise and resubmit the work. It is not known, however, what students do with that feedback or if they understand the professor's intentions. To this end, we asked eight advanced mathematics undergraduates to respond to professor comments on…
