They also play vital roles in many areas of life. However, few studies address the role EFs play in adolescents’ lives, including their academic performance. We investigated the effects of EFs on standardized exams in mathematics, reading, and English language arts. The main findings were that: 1) adolescents’ EFs—especially when measured by their current teachers—predict performance on standardized academic assessments throughout the middle and high school grades; 2) this effect existed among a rather diverse sample of students both with and without diagnosed disabilities; 3) the predictiveness of EFs tended to increase across these grades when measured by the teachers, but not those gauged by the students themselves; and 4) EFs were somewhat more strongly associated with performance on standardized reading and English language arts exams than on math exams. In addition, students who identified as female tended to show stronger EFs; race/ethnicity showed some significance, but not in easily interpreted ways; and age was reliably associated with performance on these standardized exams such that older students tended to do better even though the exam scores were standardized by grade level. The results illustrate the contributions of EFs to standardized assessments for students with and without diagnosed disabilities.","PeriodicalId":90589,"journal":{"name":"Journal of educational and developmental psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46866488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aiming to explore this question, the current study focused on two forms of prospective reciprocity, direct and indirect (downstream) reciprocity. Two studies were conducted in which the chance for prospective reciprocity was implicit (study 1) and explicit (study 2). Specifically, 4- to 6-year-olds were asked to share stickers with a non-shown recipient, a shown recipient, or a non-shown recipient while a witness was observing. In study 1, preschoolers did not know whether the shown recipient/witness would interact with them later. In study 2, they knew the shown recipient/witness would be asked to share with them subsequently. Results revealed that, despite the implicit/explicit chance of prospective reciprocity, preschoolers shared more in the prospective direct reciprocity condition than the control/prospective indirect downstream reciprocity conditions. In addition, comparing the two studies found no difference found between the implicit and explicit situations. Overall, these findings indicate that preschoolers have taken direct reciprocity, rather than indirect (downstream) reciprocity in guiding their initial sharing with others. Implications of these findings are further discussed.","PeriodicalId":90589,"journal":{"name":"Journal of educational and developmental psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44901446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advancement via Individual Determination (AVID) is an in-school, academic support program that targets underserved students. The current study explored the impact of an intervention program targeting academic achievement on student perceptions of social support and psychosocial impairment. The study was conducted in an under-resourced, majority Latinx high school and the sample included 75 AVID students and 140 demographically matched controls. Hierarchical linear regression analyses were performed to identify the impact of participation in the AVID program on symptoms of emotional and behavioral distress. After controlling for demographics factors and academic achievement, student perceptions of emotional and teacher support explained 7.2% of the variance in psychosocial distress; participation in the AVID intervention was found to have significantly improved the variance accounted for (ΔR2=.02, 5.13, p=.025; R2=.11, F(9,204)=2.90, p=.003). The results of this study indicate that perceived teacher social support and AVID participation were, independently, significantly associated with reduced student psychosocial distress. These findings suggest that interventions targeting the complex mechanisms of school achievement may also have a positive impact on psychosocial impairment beyond student perceptions of social support.","PeriodicalId":90589,"journal":{"name":"Journal of educational and developmental psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44320678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faculty at a community college assessed the learning conditions of students related to attention and distraction. Students self-administered an online Selective Attention Poll consisting of 20 multiple-choice items. The 239 culturally-diverse volunteers were 161 females and 78 males. Results indicated that most students believe they can get more work done in less time by multitasking, and consider this practice as necessary to meet the demands of college. Teachers could help students improve achievement by arranging innovative cooperative learning practices and developmental reading procedures. The majority of students declared their home as the most difficult place to study. Parents should provide a quiet environment and recognize student need for continued emotional support in early adulthood. The challenges for community college faculty are to help students improve study habits so they become more able to concentrate on assignments, read in-depth, value reflective thinking, diminish distractions, and build skills to work in groups.","PeriodicalId":90589,"journal":{"name":"Journal of educational and developmental psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45403759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because the main source of knowledge is the Internet, helping students know how to use this tool wisely and relate their searching to cooperative learning group assignments is a focus of instructional concern. The purpose of this study was to determine how to improve Internet learning at a single high school. The principal chose to use student voice as the method and invited all students to take the Internet Learning Poll to find out how they felt about learning from the Internet. They were told that taking the poll was voluntary, not an assignment, their responses would be anonymous, and combined with other students. Of 461 students enrolled, 444 took the poll, yielding a school completion rate of 96%. Students wanted to be taught methods to improve their Internet research skills and how to evaluate website credibility. They maintained that teachers needed training to devise assignments which contribute to Internet searching and problem-solving practice in cooperative learning teams. Student polling presents evidence-based data to identify needs of students and contribute to better school practices. The elements used to establish the goals of continuous school improvement planning can be met by focusing on faculty improvement, student voice, and principal leadership.","PeriodicalId":90589,"journal":{"name":"Journal of educational and developmental psychology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48437344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
