Chelsea Elizabeth Carr – ProQuest LLC, 2021
In the current study, we conducted a brief assessment within a multielement design to identify motivating operations (MOs) that increased or decreased the value of negative reinforcement for children with a history of challenging behavior when presented with tasks or demands. For three of the four participants, we identified specific MOs that…

Sara Scribner – ProQuest LLC, 2021
There is an established importance of classroom community, particularly for inclusive education (Kunc, 1992; Osterman, 2000; Sapon-Shevin, 2010). There is also a breadth of research around students who are most vulnerable to exclusion and othering in public schools and in classroom settings. Demographic factors such as race, socioeconomic status,…

Bixi Zhang – ProQuest LLC, 2021
This dissertation is a three-piece dissertation, including two empirical research (Chapter 1 and Chapter 2) and a methodological improvement of prior work (Chapter 3), to address issues of the effects of approaches to learning on academic achievement in childhood and power analysis for a three-level model in meta-analysis. Approaches to learning…

Andrew Martin Gatza – ProQuest LLC, 2021
This study is situated at the confluence of three calls for research within mathematics education: 1) work using novel approaches for studying students' understanding of nonlinear meanings of multiplication; 2) work using discrete mathematics to explore social issues related to equity; and 3) work at the intersection of mathematical learning and…

Natalie A. Hofmann Leedy – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Behavioral parent training (BPT) is considered a frontline intervention for challenging behaviors in early childhood. Research on outcomes in behavioral parent training include an emphasis on participant engagement, defined as attendance, cognitive readiness, and task completion (Chacko et al., 2016; Gearing et al., 2014; Nock & Ferriter,…

Cook, Kristin L.; Bush, Sarah B. – School Science and Mathematics, 2018
Complementing the aims of problem-based inquiry, a pedagogical approach called design thinking (DT) has students grapple with issues that require a creative redefinition and reimagining of solutions akin to professional skills of designers, who consider conflicting priorities and complex negotiations to arrive at a solution to an ill-defined…

Hunter-Doniger, Tracey – Art Education, 2018
Project-Based Learning (PBL) is a dynamic classroom approach in which students actively use driving questions to explore real-world problems and acquire deeper knowledge through constructive investigations (Stepien & Gallagher, 1993; Thomas, 2000). Although not a new pedagogical approach, PBL has recently gained in popularity and come to the…

Whitney, Amy Aline Fradette – ProQuest LLC, 2018
This qualitative case study sought to describe a single organization and examined how their learning experience affected students' creativity as they developed a solution to a challenging social problem. Creative problem solving and the investment theory of creativity acted as theoretical frameworks. Three research questions guided this study: (1)…

Chinnappan, Mohan; Ghazali, Munirah – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2018
Within the broad area of whole number operations, understanding and solving word problems continues to be an important area of inquiry. In the present study we draw on the framework of representational fluency to examine conceptual and procedural understandings that are exhibited by a group of Malaysian seven-year-olds as they attempted to solve…

Gómez-Arciga, Adrián; Olvera-Martínez, Carmen; Aguilar-Magallón, Daniel A.; Fernández, William Enrique Poveda – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2018
In this study we analyze and contrast approaches that future high school math teachers show when solving word problems with the use of pencil and paper and later, with the use of a Dynamic Geometry System (DGS). The resources, representations, strategies and forms of mathematical reasoning that the participants exhibit when they use GeoGebra in…

Tang, Chaoying; Li, Qin; Kaufman, James C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 2018
Empirical studies on the relationship between affect and creativity often produce conflicting results. This inconsistency has led us to believe that the relationship between affect and creativity may be better understood by looking at potential moderators. Our study looked specifically at trait affect and self-perceived creativity. Using the…

Acevedo-Borrega, Jesús; Valverde-Berrocoso, Jesús; Garrido-Arroyo, María del Carmen – Education Sciences, 2022
Interest in computational thinking (CT) in the scientific community has increased significantly in the last 4 years, as evidenced by the numerous systematic reviews carried out. However, there is a lack of reviews that update the emerging conceptualization of CT and which also examine the roles of the school curriculum and teachers in the face of…

Magnetic resonance imaging is widely used for different diagnostic examinations involving autistic patients. The noisy, narrow, isolating magnetic resonance imaging environment and long scan times may not be suitable for autistic individuals, given their communication challenges, sensory sensitivities and often heightened anxiety. This systematic…

Damian, Elena; Meuleman, Bart; van Oorschot, Wim – Sociological Methods & Research, 2022
In this article, we examine whether cross-national studies disclose enough information for independent researchers to evaluate the validity and reliability of the findings (evaluation transparency) or to perform a direct replication (replicability transparency). The first contribution is theoretical. We develop a heuristic theoretical model…
