Introduction: Fundamental movement skills (FMS) are categorized into three groups (stability, locomotion, and object control) and are crucial for enabling the practice of physical activity in children with physical disabilities. Their development is influenced by the specific nature of each child's disability. FMS can be evaluated by process-…

In recent times, the rapid growth of e-learning has brought about increased concerns regarding cybersecurity risks within digital learning environments. Despite the growing importance of cybersecurity awareness among e-learning students, there is limited research on the factors that influence students' understanding and adherence to cyber safety…

This study aimed to adapt the "Teachers' Time Poverty Scale" developed by Liu et al. (2023) for use in Turkey and to assess whether teachers' time poverty in Turkey varies based on gender, years of experience, and employment level by utilizing the adapted scale. The research was performed in two phases: adaptation and implementation of…

Substantial research suggests that high variability (multitalker) phonetic training helps second language (L2) adults improve differentiation of challenging nonnative speech sounds. Is such training also useful for L2 children? Existing studies have mixed findings and important limitations. We investigate the potential benefits of computerized…

This two-wave longitudinal study investigated the relationships between belief in others (i.e., teacher support, peer support, and family coherence) and social anxiety symptoms among rural adolescents, with self-esteem as a mediator and gender as a moderator.
