The balance between study life and personal life has been recognized as one of the important indicators of student well-being. This study aims to examine the mediating and moderating roles of study-life balance in predicting student well-being using the study demands-resources framework. The study employed a multilevel quantitative diary design,…

Balancing out-of-class time for college students is not only crucial for reducing academic and emotional burdens but also plays a significant role in students' development. Using a work-life balance framework, this study proposes a theoretical framework of the balance between academic and non-academic time involvement and defines different balance…

We study the external validity of instrumental variable estimation. The key assumption we impose for external validity is conditional external unconfoundedness among compliers, which means that the treatment effect and target selection are independent among compliers conditional on covariates. We study this assumption with a case study about the…

While decades of research have deepened our understanding of time perception, the perception of (manipulated) video speed has been relatively underexplored but is gaining interest with recent technological advances. This study systematically investigated human perception of "video speed," "clip duration" and "original…

This case study explores the experiences and decision-making involved in conducting a scoping review to identify literature regarding the benefits and shortcomings of using academic library research guides as a teaching tool. It highlights the time-consuming nature of scoping reviews due to both their breadth and challenges of synthesizing…

Purpose: This study explores the various models influencing online distance learning growth in UK Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) due to the evolving politico-socio-economic environment and traditional educational challenges. It aims to understand their effects on teaching methods, resource allocation, and time investment. The research…

Many studies have suggested that procrastination can result in negative effects, such as anxiety and decline in academic performance; however, procrastination can be either active or passive. This study explored the serial mediation effect of personal mastery and creative self- concept in the correlation between active procrastination and creative…

Under the tenet of framing and regulatory theory, this study undertakes a comprehensive examination of the impacts of task-oriented and self-oriented teacher developmental feedback on learning outcomes, considering the moderation roles of timeliness and regulatory focus, and compares the effects between competitive and the noncompetitive…

The purpose of this action research study was to examine and improve school principals' time management to increase opportunities for instructional leadership. The only constant of a principal's day is the consistent need to prioritize various expected and unexpected demands and expectations that exist on a daily basis. This study investigated the…

Background: This study investigated differences in the clinical and demographic characteristics of individuals with intellectual disabilities delayed in assessment and treatment hospitals versus individuals who were not delayed. The study further investigated the clinical outcomes of the individuals whose discharge from the hospital was delayed.…

Dynamic structural equation models (DSEM) are designed for time series analysis of latent structures. Inherent to the application of DSEM is model parameter estimation, which has to be addressed in many applications by a single time series. In this context, however, the methods currently available either lack estimation quality or are…

Faculty who develop courses in an online environment are crucial to an integral part of providing accessible learning in graduate school education. However, existing literature on accessibility reveals that faculty are sometimes unprepared to create accessible online courses. Developing accessible courses for all students is an ongoing challenge…

Purpose: This study investigates the relationship between telework frequency and knowledge management (KM) activity in Japan and the USA. By examining how telework impacts KM activity differently across these two countries, this study aims to provide insights into the design and implementation of effective telework policies tailored to specific…

Local districts can benefit from a collaborative process for refreshing their master schedules to increase teacher planning time. Alongside national models for organizing the school day, local districts must account for regional factors such as resources, historical practices, community expectations, changing state requirements, negotiated…

It is well established that performing multiple tasks simultaneously (dual-tasking) or sequentially (task-switching) degrades performance on one or both tasks. However, it is unknown whether task-switching adds to the effects of dual-tasking in a single setup. We investigated this in a simulated everyday-like car driving scenario. We expected an…
