Advancing feedback research in educational psychology
Feedback is widely recognized as a key mechanism in educational psychology, shaping learning through cognitive, motivational, and emotional processes. Despite a rich body of research, core questions remain regarding when feedback is effective, why it works, and for whom it fosters meaningful learning. To examine the psychological and contextual mechanisms underlying feedback effectiveness, the studies included in this issue draw on diverse method…
Understanding individual differences in students’ responses to technology-based feedback on a writing task
Computer-based feedback interventions are generally effective—but not for all students. Students’ achievement motives (hopes for success, fear of failure) might explain how students respond to feedback in interplay with initial task performance. In a sample of 949 secondary school students in Germany (Grades 7–9) we found that when the task criterion was initially not met, higher hopes for success were positively associated with students’ subsequ…

On the role of engagement in automated feedback effectiveness
Feedback research increasingly focuses on the role of learners’ engagement in the feedback process. Process measures from technology-based learning environments that reflect writing behavior can provide new insights into the mechanisms underlying feedback effectiveness by making engagement visible. Previous research has shown that log data and similarity measures mediate the effects of automated feedback on learners’ revision performance. In the …

Data extraction by generative artificial intelligence
Psychological science requires reliable measures. Within systematic literature reviews, reliability hinges on high interrater agreement during data extraction. Yet, the extraction process has been time-consuming. Efforts to accelerate the process using technology have shown limited success until generative artificial intelligence (genAI), particularly large language models (LLMs), accurately extracted variables from medical studies. Nonetheless, …
The roles of moral disengagement and basic moral sensitivity in university students’ antisocial bystander intentions towards relational bullying
Relational bullying is a prevalent issue in higher education, and students who witness bullying incidents react in prosocial or antisocial ways depending on a complex range of factors. To encourage prosocial and discourage antisocial bystander behaviours in students, it is crucial to understand which factors contribute to aggressively defending others, reinforcing bullying and ignoring bullying. The present study examined associations of traditio…
Language quality, content, structure
Argumentative writing in English as a foreign language (EFL) is an important skill in upper secondary education in Germany and Switzerland. This article provides insights into students’ EFL writing skills in the aspects of language quality, content, and structure (N = 2314 TOEFL argumentative essays from two time-points, beginning and end of Year 11). These essays were analyzed by trained human raters using analytic assessment rubrics for each as…
Understanding the effectiveness of automated feedback
In the last couple of years, feedback research has shifted towards a feedback-as-process approach, taking a learner-centered perspective and focusing on the proactive role of the learner in feedback effectiveness. Process measures can provide new insights into the role of the learner by making learners’ actual behavioral engagement visible. We conducted an experimental study, comparing two groups (feedback vs. no feedback) of English-as-a-foreign…
Who am I? A second-order meta-analytic review of correlates of the self in childhood and adolescence
People's subjective beliefs about themselves affect what people think and, consequently, what they do. Positive self-beliefs are important for many life outcomes, from academic success to well-being, especially during K-12 education as a crucial developmental period. Many empirical studies and meta-analyses have examined correlates of self-beliefs. The present second-order meta-analytic review integrates this large and diverse body of research, a…
How values relate to student achievement in upper secondary education
Educational research often refers to the subjective values assigned to aspects of education. Theoretical frameworks from the related disciplines of psychology and sociology applied to the context of education aim to better describe why some students are more motivated in school than others to understand differences in academic outcomes. In the current study, we followed an interdisciplinary approach that aimed to integrate psychological views reg…
Factors Associated with Vaccine Hesitancy in the State of Alaska
Exploring factors associated with parent‐reported early childhood caries with Alaska's childhood understanding behaviors survey data
Although at the statewide level, improvements were observed in parent-reported measures over time, regional disparities were apparent. Social and economic factors as well as excessive consumption of sweetened beverages appear to play important roles in ECC. CUBS data can help identify trends in ECC within Alaska
Teachers’ emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction
The current article investigated the role that the school context plays in teachers’ well-being in terms of emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction. First, we analyzed between-school variation in well-being and indicators of social interactions. Second, we examined the association between these indicators and well-being on the teacher and school levels. Based on two large teacher samples (Study 1: N = 1022; Study 2: N = 2886), the results of mu…
Openness to experience and museum visits
Museum visits have the potential to fascinate and inspire. Openness to experience is known to be related to people’s preferences regarding cultural activities such as visits to different types of museums. This study investigated how facets of openness to experience are related to the frequency of visits to different types of museums in a large sample of 4,541 museum visitors. Modeling facets of openness using the bifactor S − 1 model, we found th…
A closer look at the domain‐specific associations of openness with language achievement
BACKGROUND: Many empirical investigations focus on how personality traits and academic motivation are related to academic achievement. Regarding the personality traits described in the five-factor model, prior research has shown associations between openness to experience and language achievement in particular. Following the principle of trait activation, associations with intrinsic value can explain these domain-specific relationships of opennes…
Twenty Years of Addiction and Mental Illness in Alaska
Which student and instructional variables are most strongly related to academic motivation in K-12 education? A systematic review of meta-analyses
Judgment accuracy of German student texts
Towards equality for women and men from one race
Since 1933 marked the end of autonomous and democratic women’s associations, historiography tends to neglect the study of feminist voices under National-Socialism. This paper looks at one of völkisch feminist movement’s leaders, writer and journalist Sophie Rogge-Börner (1878–1955), whose claims for gender equality were rooted in anti-Semitism and scientific racism. In its first section, the paper will present the core aspects of her racial-femin…
