Dosage Explains Individual Differences in the Outcomes of a Prevention Program for Literacy Problems
Comparing a sociological and psychological approach to summer bridge programs
Many higher education institutions organize summer bridge programs (SBPs) to prepare students for university. However, what a SBP should contain is unclear because few studies directly compare different theoretical approaches. This study evaluated two types of SBPs offered at a Dutch university: (A) a sociological approach focusing on academic capital and (B) a psychological approach targeting mindset and metacognition. We randomly assigned 250 a…
Effects of the Covid-19 school lockdowns on language and math performance of students in elementary schools
The current study investigates the effects of the school lockdowns during school years 2019–2020 and 2020–2021 on the achievement scores of primary school students during the COVID-19 pandemic. We analyzed scores for spelling, reading fluency (i.e., decoding speed), reading comprehension, and mathematics from standardized student tracking systems for 5125 students from 26 primary schools in the urban region of The Hague, the Netherlands. Results …
The development of the relationship between professional identity tensions and teacher identity
Understanding school engagement
Adolescents' school engagement is related to continuities and discontinuities in learning notions between various contexts (e.g., school, home, peer groups). Learning notions are the prevalent ideas in a context about appropriate learning goals, contents and means. It has remained unclear how adolescents' learner identities mediate the role that (dis-)continuities play in adolescents' school engagement. To advance insight into adolescents' school…
Creating space for agency
A conceptual framework is presented to understand and study the role of students’ agency in their school (dis-)engagement from a Funds of Identity (FoI) perspective. The framework includes the notion of agency combined with Funds of Learner Identity (FoLI): learning preferences that can be considered part of people’s Funds of Identity. The framework holds that students manifest agency to negotiate engaging learning experiences when the school’s a…
Is the “Brainwork Intervention” effective in reducing sick leave for non-permanent workers with psychological problems? Results of a controlled clinical trial
The Netherlands Trial Register (NTR); NTR3976 (old registration number NTR4190). Registered September 27th 2013
A two-step, test-guided Mokken scale analysis, for nonclustered and clustered data
We developed a two-step, test-guided MSA for scale construction that takes into account sample fluctuation of all scalability coefficients and that can be applied to item scores obtained by a nonclustered or clustered sampling design
Assessing the professional identity of primary student teachers
Domains of teacher identity
This study provides an overview of components of teacher identity that are found in quantitative measurement instruments; and reports on the psychometric quality of these measurement instruments. Our search included studies that assessed components of teacher identity published in English-written, peer-reviewed articles between 2000 and 2018. We analyzed a total of 59 components in 20 studies. After we categorized the components on the basis of a…
Primary student teachers’ professional identity tensions
Teachers' role in stimulating students’ inquiry habit of mind in primary schools
Chronic Childhood Stress
Stress in children and adolescents is common and related to many developmental problems. However, most studies have made no distinction between temporary or chronic stress due to the lack of a suitable questionnaire. This study tested the factor structure, reliability and validity of the 17-item self-report Chronic Stress Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (CSQ-CA) in three samples, that is, 717 adolescents from the general population, 16…
Regression of directed graphs on independent effects for density and reciprocity
In common models for dyadic network regression, the density and reciprocity parameters are dependent on each other. Here, the j1 and j2 models are introduced with a density parameter that represents the log odds of a single tie. Consequently, the density and reciprocity parameters are independent and the interpretation of both parameters more straightforward. Estimation procedures and simulation results for these new models are discussed as well …
Changes in parenting and child behavior after the home-start family support program
The impact of education and globalization on sexual and reproductive health
The objective of this study is to qualify the relationship between sexual and reproductive health (SRH) and educational attainment in eastern and southern Africa (ESA). We hypothesize that the regional level of globalization is a moderating factor in the relationship between SRH and educational attainment. Using retrospective data from Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, and Zambia, the associations between SRH (eight indicators), educational attainment, an…
Long-term changes in parenting and child behavior after the Home-Start family support program
The Dyadic Nature of Bullying and Victimization
For this study, information on Who Bullies Who was collected from 54 school classes with 918 children (M age = 11) and 13,606 dyadic relations. Bullying and victimization were viewed separately from the point of view of the bully and the victim. The two perspectives were highly complementary. The probability of a bully–victim relationship was higher if the bully was more dominant than the victim, and if the victim was more vulnerable than the bul…
Ethnic Boundaries in High School Students' Networks in Flanders and the Netherlands
Ethnic boundaries were tested in students' networks in 34 Flemish and 19 Dutch high schools. Each network consisted of a school cohort in an intermediate level of education (track). While students from the native majority predominantly had friendships within their own ethnic category, minority students often had more inter-ethnic than intra-ethnic friendships. However, a multilevel p2 model for analysing the networks showed that this was due main…
