Theory about how mentorship is supposed to work, its goals, and what "makes it work" is abundant. It is rarer to encounter empirical information about processes and implications when mentoring is a problem. Graduate students experience significant psychological, physical, financial, and relational challenges and likely have expectations…

Nearly 50% of graduate students report experiencing emotional or psychological distress during their enrollment in graduate school. Levels of distress are particularly high for transgender and nonbinary graduate students who experience daily discrimination and marginalization. Universities and colleges have yet to address and accommodate the needs…

Feedback is a complex socio-cultural construct, utilising various modalities over the lifespan of a research candidature. This study reports findings from a review of global literature on supervisory feedback to postgraduate research students. Three focus questions guided the review: students' problems in receiving feedback, perceptions of…

From differences in brain development to balancing complex roles, the needs of graduate students significantly differ from undergraduates and yet often go unacknowledged. In this article, I explore how these differences can be taken into account when supporting graduate student leadership identity during turbulent times and beyond through…

Faculty have an implicit expectation that their graduate and professional students will become leaders in their respective fields; however, there is a lack of formalized co-curricular education to prepare them to assume leadership. This article provides two examples of co-curricular leadership education programs as inspiration for others to…

Collaborative argumentation allows groups to express, criticize, and integrate arguments to achieve the co-construction of collective knowledge. However, students often face challenges when proposing diversified arguments, gathering evidence, and rebutting others reasonably. Incorporating generative conversational agents (GCAs) into collaborative…

Research has focused on the importance of family to Latinx/a/o students. Yet, Latinx/a/o college student identity models have remained linear and individualistic. Centering Chicana/Latina Feminist epistemology and methodology, this study utilized pláticas to understand how a collectivist orientation influences the academic identity development of…

Studying for exams forms a significant part of the occupational therapy graduate school experience. While successful completion of exams is a central focus for students, little time is devoted to explicitly teaching new graduate students how to most effectively study. Instead, when they enter their occupational therapy programs, students…

Gamification, using game elements in nongame contexts, is widely recognized for its efficacy in training individuals within organizational and academic environments. Specifically, it has gained significant attention in training to operate complex systems like enterprise resource planning (ERP). However, research has generally overlooked how…

This article explores how participation in a community of practice course aided negotiation between performer-educator identities among graduate students professionally active as studio teachers. Studio teachers may face isolation due to limited opportunities for professional development and the secluded nature of one-on-one instruction, and…

This study concerns the cognitive process of mathematical problem posing, conceptualized in three stages: understanding the task, constructing the problem, and expressing the problem. We used the eye tracker and think-aloud methods to deeply explore students' behavior in these three stages of problem posing, especially focusing on investigating…

Many are unfamiliar with the field of industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology. Vocational interests are often used to guide students' academic and career choices, but there is no scale that measures interest in the specific areas of I-O psychology. Study 1 and 2 present the initial development and refinement of the I-O Psychology Interest…

Here we report a successful initiative between Brazil and Germany to stimulate neuroscience outreach: the POPNeuro Program. The POPNeuro Program is a neuroscience outreach project created in Brazil that has been active for >10 years. It was initiated in Uruguaiana, RS, Brazil and linked to the Physiology Research Group from the Federal…

This study aims to adapt to Turkish the "Scale for the assessment of non-experts: AI literacy" developed by Laupichler et al. (2023a). The scale consists of 31 items with three sub-dimensions: technical understanding, critical thinking, and practical applications. The data required for the validity and reliability study of the scale were…

This study aimed to determine occupational therapy students' coping strategies and styles to manage stress. The final sample included 160 students, with 39 master of occupational therapy (MOT) students and 121 occupational therapy doctoral (OTD) students who were currently enrolled in an MOT or OTD program. This study used a cross-sectional,…
