Reciprocal links between student disengagement and teacher–student relationships
BACKGROUND: High-quality teacher-student relationships are linked to engagement, yet disengaged students may view the relationship less positively, suggesting a potential reciprocal cycle between disengagement and teacher-student relationship quality. This bidirectional process has been theorized but remains underexplored at the within-person level over time. AIM: To examine within-year within-person dynamics in student disengagement and its reci…

Malleability of emotions
Beliefs about the ability to control emotions are related to emotional and interpersonal outcomes as well as school achievement, and can be shaped through interventions possibly in the early school years. However, they were rarely studied with children, partly for lack of measurement instruments. We investigated elementary school students’ beliefs about malleability of positive and negative emotions by developing the Robust Incremental Beliefs ab…
Exploring teachers’ psychological needs, motivating styles, emotion regulation and self-compassion
This correlational study investigated the mediation of emotion regulation and self-compassion in the relationship between teacher need satisfaction/frustration and adoption of (de)motivating styles before and during the COVID-19. Two groups of Italian teachers tested in 2019 (n = 259) and 2020 (n = 233) completed a series of questionnaires. In both times, need satisfaction was positively associated with adoption of motivating styles (bright path)…
Understanding the dynamics of teaching styles and need satisfaction in the Chinese educational context
The current study aimed at assessing the peculiarities of the relationships among perceived (de)motivating teaching styles and students need satisfaction/frustration in the Chinese context. A total of 1715 middle and high school students filled in measures of self-reported and perceived adoption of (de)motivating styles and need satisfaction/frustration. The results confirmed the positive relationship between perceived motivating teaching styles …
Does the Weekly Practice of Recalling and Elaborating Episodes Raise Well-Being in University Students
Increasing well-being is a prominent worldwide goal that can be achieved primarily through social support and environmental factors. However, in times of social distancing or isolation, it is important to also rely on self-managed activities. This study aimed to (a) test the effectiveness of a seven-week well-being intervention, in increasing need satisfaction, self-compassion, emotion regulation, and grateful disposition by curbing need frustrat…

Gender stereotypes and incremental beliefs in STEM and non-STEM students in three countries
Displayed enthusiasm attracts attention and improves recall
BackgroundInstructor enthusiasm has been shown to enhance a range of positive student outcomes including recall, but the underlying mechanisms for the favourable effects of teacher enthusiasm are still largely unknown.AimsWe hypothesized that attention paid to the instructor is one mechanism and that the positive effects of enthusiasm will disappear when attention is captured by another task.SamplesIn a series of three studies, we involved fourth…
Multiple Dimensions of Self-Esteem and Their Relationship with Health in Adolescence
The aim of the present study was to examine how different domains of self-esteem (social, competence, affect, academic, family, and physical) relate to self-reported physical and mental health, lower back pain (LBP), smoking, and physical exercise in a sample of adolescents. A sample of 326 adolescents 14-19 years old completed several self-report questionnaires collecting epidemiological data, and information on their LBP, smoking, and physical …

Scaffolding for motivation by parents, and child homework motivations and emotions

Situated Affect in Traveling Data
This article brings psychosocial methods into conversation with methodological and ethical debates arising from the reuse of qualitative research material, and with issues of ethnographic practice. Our empirical grounding came from the psychosocial technique of reading research texts aloud in a group, listening in an affectively attuned way, and sharing our responses. The texts we revisited-infant observation notes of interactions between a young…
