Mapping longitudinal trajectories of personal values in elementary school: Unveiling roles of the classroom
Value transmission is a key societal responsibility, and value education has gained increasing global attention. Although classrooms represent important developmental environments for children's values, comparatively little is known about how different social actors within classrooms contribute to value development. This longitudinal study examined how classmates, teachers, and classroom relationships contribute to children's value development ov…
Tridimensional Acculturation and Academic Self-Concept of Minoritized Primary Students in Swiss Multicultural Classrooms: A Latent Profile Analysis
Schools are increasingly shaped by societal change and growing cultural diversity, calling for refined approaches to understanding the acculturation of minoritized students. This study examined acculturation profiles among minoritized primary students (n = 736) in Switzerland, applying a tridimensional framework that incorporates a multicultural orientation, beyond heritage and majority orientation. Using a three-stage latent profile analysis, fo…
Children’s personal values and their behavior in the classroom in the early elementary school years: Mapping longitudinal trajectories
This study pioneers the examination of developmental trajectories of children’s personal values and their behavior in the classroom at the start of elementary school, exploring these dynamics of change in younger children. Additionally, we consider the classroom context, being an important but often overlooked setting for children’s value development. In a sample of 1,184 Swiss children ( Mean age at T1: 6.82 years) who self-reported their values…
Giving voice to educators: Primary school teachers explain how they promote values to their pupils
Values are the trans-situational goals guiding human attitudes and behavior (Schwartz, 1992). As early socialization agents, teachers have a responsibility to promote democratic values of citizenship to create an inclusive, fair, and sustainable society, necessary for individual and collective well-being (OECD, 2019). By facilitating social and cognitive development through social interactions, the school setting helps spark curiosity, leading to…
The interplay between teachers’ value-related educational goals and their value-related school climate over time
Values education within the school context is, among other elements, shaped by a value-related school climate as well as teachers’ value-related educational goals. This longitudinal study investigated the interplay between these two elements over fifteen months, starting in March 2021, and including four points of measurement ( t1 − t4 ). The sample consisted of 118 primary school teachers (years 1 and 2) from primary schools in Switzerland. Teac…
Foreign Trade of Mongolia under Global Shocks
The paper examines the current problems of Mongolia's foreign trade. It reveals that Mongolia depends on trade with two neighboring countries and has therefore suffered from border restrictions from China and Western states sanctions against Russia. It shows that the closure of the border with China in 2020 led to a sharp drop in Mongolian exports. In addition, Mongolia's dependence on mineral exports to China was exacerbated by its dependence on…
Delarivier Manly: Life and Work
This paper examines the life and work of the English writer Delarivier Manly (с. 1670—1724). She managed to become widely known as a satirist who wrote on political topics. It is safe to consider her the first female journalist in English history to serve as a mouthpiece for the Tory political group. As a playwright, she owns four plays staged by London theaters. Her greatest fame as an author came from the best-selling “New Atalantia” and other …
Value transmission in primary schools: Are teachers’ acculturation orientations a moderator
The transmission of human values to primary school pupils is key, which is acknowledged in curricula in a variety of cultural contexts worldwide. The present study presents data from the multicultural and multilingual region of Bolzano in Northern Italy ( n = 422 pupils in k = 30 classrooms). In addition to class teachers’ values as predictors of their pupils’ values we investigated whether teachers’ acculturation orientations would strengthen th…
The relationship between young children’s personal values and their teacher-rated behaviors in the classroom
There has been little research on the relationships between children’s personal values and the behaviors that express such values in the school context. In the present study, we examined for the first time with children at this young age, the relations between values and their value-related behaviors, i.e., supportive, disciplined, learning-oriented, and achievement-oriented, in the primary school context. The sample consisted of 952 primary scho…

School adjustment of ethnic minority youth: A qualitative and quantitative research synthesis of family-related risk and resource factors
In today’s multicultural societies, the question of how school adjustment (adapting to the role of being a student) can be promoted for students from ethnic minority backgrounds is of high importance. The ecological approach to acculturation research proposes minority students’ school adjustment is shaped by the surrounding context, and it suggests that the microsystem family plays an important role. Specifically, parents’ acculturation, practice…
Gendered Self-Views Across 62 Countries: A Test of Competing Models
Social role theory posits that binary gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in less egalitarian countries, reflecting these countries’ more pronounced sex-based power divisions. Conversely, evolutionary and self-construal theorists suggest that gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in more egalitarian countries, reflecting the greater autonomy support and flexible self-construction processes present in these countrie…
Harriet Taylor and John Stuart Mill: Joint Creative Work in the Context of Private Life

The facts of their biography and personal life were studied. The emphasis is on Harriet Taylor Mill's personality. The works of Mill, in which the influence of his wife is most clearly traced, are highlighted. The mechanism and features of their cooperation are shown. The author comes …
Phylogenetic trees: Grammar versus vocabulary
Traditionally, genealogical relationships between languages are established on the basis of phonetic and lexical data. The question whether genealogical relationships among languages can be defined based on grammatical data remains unanswered. The objective of this article is to compare two phylogenetic trees: one built using the Automated Similarity Judgment Program (ASJP) project, and one using the World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS). We …
A Latent Class Analysis of University Lecturers’ Switch to Online Teaching during the First Covid-19 Lockdown: The Role of Educational Technology, Self-Efficacy, and Institutional Support
The switch to emergency remote teaching (ERT) due to the first COVID-19 lockdown demanded a lot from university lecturers yet did not pose the same challenge to all of them. This study sought to explain differences among lecturers (n = 796) from universities in France, Germany, Switzerland, and the UK in their use of educational technology for teaching, institutional support, and personal factors. Guided by the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), lect…

Toward Gender Equality in Education—Teachers’ Beliefs about Gender and Math
Math has a strong gender-related image, even among teachers. As teachers hold beliefs about their work, their role, their subject, and their students, they shape girls’ and boys’ mathematical beliefs and attitudes. Research during the past 20 years has shown that teachers’ gender beliefs about mathematics significantly favor boys, thereby reinforcing girls’ low math ability self-concept. Still, there is a lack of studies that examine teachers’ ge…

Les enseignants du supérieur face à l’enseignement en ligne « obligé »: Quels changements dans leur rapport au numérique éducatif
Les mesures de confinement imposées aux établissements d’enseignement supérieur au premier semestre 2020 en Europe ont nécessité une migration d’urgence vers l’enseignement en ligne pour assurer la continuité des enseignements. Bien qu’un soutien ait été généralement proposé aux enseignants, il leur a fallu s’adapter d’urgence à ces nouvelles conditions de travail. Cette situation particulière a offert l’opportunité de mieux comprendre la complex…
Psychometric Properties and Correlates of Precarious Manhood Beliefs in 62 Nations
Precarious manhood beliefs portray manhood, relative to womanhood, as a social status that is hard to earn, easy to lose, and proven via public action. Here, we present cross-cultural data on a brief measure of precarious manhood beliefs (the Precarious Manhood Beliefs scale [PMB]) that covaries meaningfully with other cross-culturally validated gender ideologies and with country-level indices of gender equality and human development. Using data …
Assessing attitudes towards mutual acculturation in multicultural schools: Conceptualisation and validation of a four-dimensional mutual acculturation attitudes scale
Assessment of acculturation attitudes usually has focused on the importance of two dimensions: first, immigrants’ maintenance of cultural heritage and, second, immigrants’ adoption of the majority culture. Because acculturation is a reciprocal interaction, we extended a bidimensional scale to four dimensions to assess mutual acculturation. Given the importance of the social context for acculturation and schools as a crucial context for immigrant …

Parent-child value similarity in families with young children: The predictive power of prosocial educational goals
Value transmission from one generation to the next is a key issue in every society, but it is not clear which parents are the most successful in transmitting their values to their children. We propose parents' prosocial educational goals as key predictors of parent-child value similarity. Accordingly, we hypothesized that the more parents wanted their children to endorse values of self-transcendence (helping, supporting, and caring for others) an…
Teachers' Acculturation Attitudes and Their Classroom Management: An Empirical Study among Fifth-Grade Primary School Teachers in Switzerland
This article investigates the influence of attitudes towards acculturation of 180 primary school teachers on their classroom management. The results indicate that teachers with integrative attitudes towards immigrant students' acculturation have a high propensity to punish students for disruptive behaviour, but they also demonstrate high levels of diagnostic expertise in social areas. Teachers with assimilative attitudes are also likely to punish…

Culturally-based and Culturally-biased Aspects of Knowing the Other
Interaction of cultures calls for cultural awareness development. Knowledge is a powerful weapon to overcome prejudices, stereotyping and xenophobia. To build cultural awareness and tolerance to the peculiarities of someone else's culture, global learners must learn how to determine the existence of differences between cultures and how to adapt their own behavior to a foreign culture. In today's world, many problems arise because of the errors in…

The Gender Gap in STEM Fields: The Impact of the Gender Stereotype of Math and Science on Secondary Students' Career Aspirations
Studies have repeatedly reported that math and science are perceived as male domains, and scientists as predominantly male. However, the impact of the gender image of school science subjects on young people’s career choice has not yet been analyzed. This paper investigates the impact of the masculinity image of three school subjects – chemistry, mathematics and physics – on secondary students’ career aspirations in STEM fields. The data originate…
