Self-compassion is emerging as a method to support teachers dealing with the stress of teaching. In this qualitative study, the authors investigate the ways in which self-compassion already exists in the teaching context and in what ways self-compassion intersects with emotion regulation. Teachers shared critical incidents of unsatisfactory…

There is growing agreement that feedback should be understood as a contextual and social process, rather than as receipt of teacher comments on students' work. This reframing brings with it new complexities, and it can be challenging for researchers and practitioners to adopt a process perspective when making sense of feedback practices in…

This study contributes to the understanding of the relationship between emotions and development of scientific understanding by examining (1) how students perform in scientific sensemaking in the context of a three-cycle predict-observe-explain (POE) activity, (2) what kind of trajectories of situational epistemic emotions students show when…

The Preschool Early Numeracy Skills Test--Brief Version (PENS-B) is a measure of early numeracy skills, developed and mainly used in the United States. The purpose of this study was to examine the factorial validity and measurement invariance across gender of PENS-B in the Greek educational context. PENS-B was administered to 906 preschool…

Purpose: This study aims to explore how individual personal growth initiative (PGI) mediates the relationship between a positive error orientation and job crafting. Furthermore, it explores the moderating role of the feedback from the leader in this relationship. Design/methodology/approach: Data was collected through a survey conducted on 209…

Although there is a large body of research about emotional labour in workplace settings, such as the health professions and the service industry, less is known about the empirical processes through which emotional labour is taught in higher education and professional education. Using medical education as an example, a discursive psychological (DP)…

To test the suitability of an automatic system for emotional management in the classroom following the control-value theory of achievement emotions (CVT) framework, the performance of an emotional expression recognition software of our creation is evaluated in an online synchronous context. Sixty students from the Faculty of Education at the…

Emotional shifts in stories are assumed to contribute to narrative persuasion by enhancing engagement with the story. This effect might depend on the congruency of audiences' emotional experience to the emotions implied by the story. In two experiments with well-controlled story manipulations, we compared the persuasive effect of stories with…

Background: Research on training direct support professionals to address challenging behaviour exhibited by adults with intellectual disabilities is essential in generating effective training approaches for this sector. This systematic review's objective was to evaluate the effects of training types and whether specific training delivery…

A peer-assessment system provides a structured learning process for students and allows them to write textual feedback on each other's assignments and projects. This helps instructors or teaching assistants perform a more comprehensive evaluation of students' work. However, the contribution of peer assessment to students' learning relies heavily…

Background: Sensitive responsiveness is an important aspect in affect-regulation of people with severe to profound intellectual disabilities. Aim: This randomized controlled trial evaluated the Attune & Stimulate-checklist, a tool for detecting subtle and idiosyncratic communicative behaviours and responding adequately. Methods: Effects on the…

Previous behavior-analytic research to improve dance performance has separately demonstrated the efficacy of TAGteach and self-evaluative video feedback. However, no research has directly compared these two interventions. In this study, we used an adapted alternating-treatment design to examine the effects of TAGteach versus self-evaluative video…

Evidence indicates that universal screening can support academic participation. Response to Intervention (RtI) is a model that has been designed to identify student needs and support them within the academic setting. A focus group was held with 20 school-based occupational therapy practitioners to explore the existing role of occupational therapy…

The purpose of this study was to examine music teachers' experiences with flow while performing and teaching music. A model with four flow antecedents (Challenge, Skills, Goal Clarity, and Feedback) and three dimensions of flow state (Absorption, Enjoyment, and Intrinsic Motivation) was adopted to investigate music teachers' flow experiences in…

One of the most influential factors in student musical development is feedback. Teachers must think deeply about how to shape their communication with students to provide feedback that can promote student growth while minimizing discouragement and disengagement. Special care needs to be taken when providing feedback to historically marginalized…
