In meta-analytic studies, there are often multiple moderators available (eg, study characteristics). In such cases, traditional meta-analysis methods often lack sufficient power to investigate interaction effects between moderators, especially high-order interactions. To overcome this problem, meta-CART was proposed: an approach that applies…

This article investigates YouTube metalinguistic comments about language varieties in Ukraine as a "light" practice to demonstrate how knowledge and identities are negotiated online against the backdrop of larger sociopolitical discourses that circulate in and about Ukraine. This work adds to our understanding of online, or…

The conical pendulum is a topic theoretically approached in physics literature, but with little experimental activity developed due to the difficulty of reproducing the conical motion in ideal experimental conditions. This work consisted of studying the motion of a rigid conical pendulum using video analysis. The experimental results were used as…

In this presentation I trouble the ways that critical scholars of difference turn away from the spectral presence of disability in search of more empowering narratives. The alternative narratives they support recreate limiting theorizations of the human/posthuman that continue to support ableist representations of disability. Refusing this…

Contract cheating occurs when students outsource assessed work. In this study, we asked experienced markers from four disciplines to detect contract cheating in a set of 20 discipline-specific assignments. We then conducted a training workshop to improve their detection accuracy, and afterwards asked them to detect contract cheating in 20 new…

Computer based analyses offer a possibility for objective methods to assess semantic-linguistic quality of narratives at the text level. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether a semantic language impairment index (SELIMI) based on latent semantic analysis (LSA) can discriminate between children with developmental language disorder…

While previous research has explored the social and academic experiences of international students when studying abroad, limited attention has been paid to local students and their adaptation to the internationalization of higher education. To fill this gap, the present study, adopting identity as an analytic lens, examined a group of Chinese…

With the shift from No Child Left Behind (NCLB) to Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), accountability models are being changed. Given the past 15 years of reporting on student subgroups and 10 years using various growth models, accountability systems can now be better informed. In this study, we analyze identification and services of students with…

Specific learning disability (SLD) identification procedures vary across states (Maki et al., 2015, "School Psychol Quart," 30, 457-469); however, the extent to which SLD identification methods are implemented at the district level is not well understood. Moreover, the high-stakes nature of SLD identification necessitates extensive…

The academic success of African American students has received notable attention (Reyes, Brackett, Rivers, White & Salovey, 2012). Aronson, Fried and Good (2002) highlight that meager academic achievement among African American students often ends in African American students being categorized as having a poor academic self-concept. This study…

This study examined asexual college students' experiences with sexual violence. Using international quantitative data from the Asexual Community Survey, we conducted descriptive analysis regarding 10 types of sexual violence and predictive analysis of three categories of sexual violence. The predictive analysis included an examination of the…

Black Lives Matter (BLM) has profoundly shifted public and political discourse about race in the United States and thus the broader sociopolitical landscape in which children learn about race and their own racial identities. A sample of Black, White, and Multiracial children (N = 100; M[subscript age] = 10.18 years old) were interviewed about…

Executive function is an umbrella term involving working memory, planning, organization, social inhibition, self-regulation, and cognitive flexibility. It is an area where many students with disabilities struggle. This column describes practical ways to enhance executive functioning in students with disabilities using the universal design for…

Over the past 50 years, eight robust generalizations about intellectual precocity have emerged, been empirically documented, and replicated through longitudinal research. Within the top 1% of general and specific abilities (mathematical, spatial, and verbal) over one third of the range of individual differences are to be found, and they are…

We investigated university students' study of mathematics in the digital setting context of the COVID-19 pandemic. We gathered data from a survey of 89 students enrolled in a 'Linear Algebra 1' course including affective variables, learning strategies, social relatedness and resources considered useful. The results indicate students' high effort…
