Yet studies of the effects of burnout on student outcomes – particularly non-academic outcomes – are scarce, even more so in low-income countries. This study attempts to establish a rigorous estimate of burnout on students’ social-emotional, executive function, and social competence skills in Ghanaian primary schools. We use a generalised propensity score model, which aims to eliminate bias from unobserved characteristics, to examine how two elements of teacher burnout – emotional exhaustion and lack of personal accomplishment – predict student outcomes. We find small negative associations between teachers’ emotional exhaustion and students’ executive function, and marginally statistically significant negative associations between teachers’ emotional exhaustion and lack of personal accomplishment with students’ social competence. Implications for educational practice and future research are discussed.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"43 1","pages":"304 - 325"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42144771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, specific aspects of the higher education course context have been theoretically linked to procrastination. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to integrate specific course characteristics (e.g., feedback structure, social norms, clarity of assignments), examine in which way they relate to procrastination, and if this relation can be explained by the satisfaction of basic needs for autonomy, relatedness, and competence. We conducted a multivariate two-level study with a sample of 90 courses with 1,809 students from different faculties and semesters. Results imply that academic procrastination is associated with specific course characteristics to a considerable degree. Basic need satisfaction was negatively related to academic procrastination at a medium level on both, the individual student level as well as the course level. Moreover, basic need satisfaction explained the relations between specific course characteristics and procrastination.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"43 1","pages":"263 - 283"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43962431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two studies were therefore conducted to explore why mental toughness may be important. In Study 1, 123 undergraduates completed measures of mental toughness, flow, engagement with feedback, and reported their academic attainment. Components of mental toughness, particularly commitment, were related to flow, engagement with feedback, and academic performance. Flow and engagement with feedback were found to be significant mediators of the relationship between the commitment component of mental toughness and academic performance. In Study 2, 79 participants completed a measure of mental toughness and were assigned to high or low mental toughness groups. They then completed two mathematics tasks, and received either positive, negative, or no feedback between the tasks. Those with lower mental toughness were found to perform less well following negative feedback than those with higher mental toughness. The results are discussed in terms of implications for educators who provide feedback and seek to encourage students to engage with that feedback.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"43 1","pages":"326 - 343"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43332555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two hundred and seventy-seven undergraduates were asked to imagine being part of a self-organized study group with comprehension-related and motivational problems and to name strategies they would apply to regulate their learning in this situation in an open-ended format. Achievement goals were measured using a standardised questionnaire. Results indicated that mastery- and performance-approach goals are positively associated with regulatory effort across all three levels of regulation. Performance-avoidance goals seem to have no significant relationship with regulatory effort.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"43 1","pages":"384 - 402"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44302733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following research that suggests teachers’ teaching intentions and approaches are influenced by conceptions of teaching, we tested if a similar relationship exists between students’ conceptions of teaching and their intentions for presentation. We first used an open-ended questionnaire to explore undergraduate students’ (N = 124) presentation intentions and identified four categories of intentions, i.e. Knowledge transmission, Attracting attention, Thought-provocation and discussion, and Self-expression. Based on the results, we quantitatively examined students’ intentions for presentation, conceptions of teaching, the relationship in between, and the moderating role of academic discipline (N = 551). Students deemed the four intentions equally important. They had high constructivist conceptions and low traditional conceptions. Their constructivist conceptions of teaching positively predicted all four intentions while the relationships between traditional conceptions and intentions were insignificant. These tendencies were irrespective of their disciplines. In light of the findings, we conclude that students’ intentions for presentation are audience-centred (analogues to student-centred in teaching intentions), and are influenced by their constructivist conceptions of teaching.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"43 1","pages":"363 - 383"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43221763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Attachment theory, as a theory of affect regulation and interpersonal relationships, may be an important framework that helps to explain why some students experience academic burnout while others do not. This study aims to examine the links between attachment orientations and levels of academic burnout and to explore the mediating role of emotion regulation strategies in this relationship. This cross-sectional study included 205 students from different Portuguese universities. Multiple mediation models conducted in PROCESS showed that both attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance were associated with higher levels of personal and academic-related burnout. Additionally, rumination and suppression mediated the association between attachment anxiety and burnout while putting into perspective and suppression mediated the association between attachment avoidance and burnout. Results are discussed in the light of attachment theory and clinical implications are provided to prevent academic-related burnout.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"43 1","pages":"344 - 362"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43288902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study is to describe the elationship between participants levels of declarative courage and the intensity of the sensation-seeking trait. For the purposes of the study, courage was defined as the willingness to take action in the face of risk (Woodard, 2007). Method: The study was conducted using a questionnaire method, the level of selected trait variables was measured using the Woodard Pury Courage Scale-23 (WPCS-23), Brief Sensation Seeking Scale (BSSS), Polish adaptation of the Moral Foundations Questionnaire (MFQ-PL). The WPCS-23 and BSSS were translated into Polish for the purposes of the study in a backtranslation the authors of the original versions. Results: The general indicator of sensation seeking has been shown to be positively related to courage; moreover, experience seeking and adventure and excitement seeking have been shown related to courage stronger than susceptibility to boredom, disengagement. Experience-seeking, adventure-seeking and excitement-seeking are predictors of respondents levels of courage. The structure of morality has little relation to the courage of participants. No moral code is a predictor for courage. Conclusions: The study was conducted to explore the relation between sensation seeking and different categories of morality with courage and the nature of human behaviour in social situations. We were interested in the structure of sensationseeking among the respondents and what traits/values guide them when making decisions. This study has proven that sensation seeking is a predictor of courage. The participants morality has shown little relationship to courage. In further research, we suggest focusing on the social aspectsof courage versus sensation seeking and morality with a larger and representative sample.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49088256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants of this study were working teachers who varied in job seniority. The aim of the study was to describe how teachers perceive the reality of schools work if and how it changed between the first days of work and present times, what critical events influenced view of schools reality, and how they perceive modern pupils. The conclusions of this study show a negative image of work in school, burnout symptoms in teachersthat took part in the study, and upholding feeling of vivid, unfavourable, social image of teachers. Method: To answer the question regarding how active teacher constructs their narratives about schools reality data, collected by using an online constructed questionnaire, was analysed using guidelines from a method of interpretative-phenomenological analysis. Results: Results show a negative view of work in school, symptoms of burnout, and awareness of a negative social view on teachers. Conclusions: Narratives regarding the schools reality, described by active teachers, have a pessimistic tone. In these stories a common theme is that of a negative view on work in school, some of them contain content about career burnout and an unsympathetic point of view regarding teachers in society. Qualitative studies of teachers narratives can be a way of better understanding the psychological states of teachers which could lead to implementing some sorts of changes in the work environment regarding, for example, career burnout.","PeriodicalId":48053,"journal":{"name":"Educational Psychology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41690338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
