The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics in education has transitioned from automation toward emotionally responsive learning systems through artificial emotional intelligence (AEI). While AI-driven robotics has enhanced instructional automation, AEI introduces an affective dimension by recognizing and responding to human…

This chapter explores the important role that anger plays in teaching and learning.

A hierarchical and multi-dimensional model of self-concept is well-validated. Despite increasing evidence that self-concept comprises two latent factors related to perceptions of 'competence' and 'affect,' many researchers continue to examine the impact of a unitary self-concept on educational outcomes. This study explores evidence for a 2-factor…

Colleges and universities play a critical role in shaping intergroup dynamics in an era of increasing racial tensions in the United States. Diversity courses may serve as one important approach for preparing college students for participation in an equitable and just society, since this coursework holds a unique position at many institutions to…

Korean secondary students in K region responded to surveys about how satisfied they were with their teachers and their favorite characteristics of teachers that helped determine their achievement and adjustment in classes. We conducted a factor analysis of the students' perceptions of the qualities of their favorite teachers and factor scores…

The purpose of this convergent mixed methods study was to examine environmental worldviews and to explore influencing factors, such as the relationship between affective disposition toward learning experiences and environmental worldviews, for students at a public four-year university. A convergent mixed methods design provided qualitative and…

Assessment is a foundational part of counseling practice, which includes the process of providing assessment feedback to those tested. Millions of children are assessed across the United States through the public-school system, hospital, agency, and private practice settings. Though millions of children are assessed yearly, there has been little…

Teaching about culturally embedded racism can be difficult. Developing concepts to reframe deeply inscribed racial beliefs and attitudes is one necessary step, but illustrating cultural racism can be even more important. Effective examples invite behavioural change and significantly improved understanding. Lipstick and nail polish practices are…

Creativity and innovation are essential agents for change processes and accelerating technical development. Having to face challenges, such as demographic change, organizations require individuals who are creative and innovative at each age. Previous research identified affect as a crucial determinant of creativity, even though empirical findings…

This research aims to investigate the relationship of stress and organizational commitment in employees with meta-analysis method. In the literature review, 22 studies and 42 comparisons were found which meet the determined criteria. "Fisher z" value was used to calculate impact size values and impact direction and overall impact of the…

Purpose: This paper aims to propose a reading of children's small toy/puppet play that takes account of bodily movements within classroom assemblages. The researcher/author created representations of episodes of activity that focused on children's ongoing bodily movements as they followed their interests in one Early Years classroom in England.…

Collaborative learning (CL) can be a powerful method for sharing understanding between learners. To this end, strategic regulation of processes, such as cognition and affect (including metacognition, emotion and motivation) is key. Decades of research on self-regulated learning has advanced our understanding about the need for and complexity of…

The emerging literature related to feedback literacy has hitherto focused primarily on students' engagement with feedback, and yet an analysis of academics' feedback literacy is also of interest to those seeking to understand effective strategies to engage with feedback. Data from concept map-mediated interviews and reflections, with a team of six…

This autoethnographic study explores disruptive moments in a multiliteracies English-as-an-Additional Language (EAL) classroom with young adult students. Using a lens of affect theory, the study presents three strategic sketches (vignettes) to shine a light on unexpected intensities in the learning assemblage, initially assumed to be learner…

Fear can potently inhibit ongoing behavior, including reward-seeking, yet the neural circuits that underlie such suppression remain to be clarified. Prior studies have demonstrated that distinct subregions of the rodent medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) differentially affect fear behavior, whereby fear expression is promoted by the more dorsal…
