Applications of learning analytics in the study of academic performance in higher education
This meta-review synthesizes evidence from systematic reviews (SRs) examining the application of Learning Analytics (LA) to the study of academic performance in higher education from an educational perspective. Despite growing interest in this area, existing reviews vary considerably in scope and exhibit notable substantive and methodological shortcomings. A comprehensive search strategy, up until May 2025, was conducted across four major databas…
Conceptual learning in pre-service teacher groups through a Text Mining intervention
Concept acquisition is a critical aspect in the education of teachers yet is especially challenging in group contexts in which traditional teaching strategies often fail to convey complex notions effectively. This study investigates the potential of text mining (TM) based learning analytics as a teaching tool to enhance conceptual learning in pre-service teachers. To do so, it analyses how the learning of complex and abstract educational concepts…

How University Teachers and Students Understand the «Learning to Learn» Competence
This study aimed to investigate how university teachers and students in Education, Health Sciences, and Engineering understand the ‘learning to learn’ competence, using text mining. Analyses covered 160 interventions from teachers (16,317 token-words) and 243 interventions from students (15,394 token-words). Students emphasized mentoring and adaptive skills, while teachers focused on autonomy and significant learning. Students highlighted the rol…
Sexting prevalence in high-school students depends on the addressee, media format, explicitness of sexts, and gender
This study aims to contribute to the current literature on adolescent sexting prevalence by reporting an accurate description and characterisation of participants based on the adolescent sexting scale A-SextS as a standardised measurement instrument. The study includes a convenience sample of 579 Spanish secondary students (52.7% boys; interquartile range 13–15 years). Participants were asked about five active sexting behaviours (sending sexts; m…
Prevalence of Intoxicating Substance Use Before or During Sex Among Young Adults
Drug use before or during sex is a high-risk sexual behavior associated with adverse health risks and outcomes, such as increasing the likelihood of overdoses and of acquiring sexually-transmitted diseases. This systematic review and meta-analysis of three scientific databases examined the prevalence of the use of intoxicating substances, those tending to excite or stupefy the user on a psychoactive level, before or during sex, among young adults…
Sexting Behavior Predictors Vary With Addressee and the Explicitness of the Sexts
The aim of this research is to examine associations of adolescent sexting with gender, being in a romantic relationship, and other online or offline sexual behaviors, using the adolescent sexting scale A-SextS as a standardized measure. Data were collected from a sample of 579 Spanish secondary school pupils (47.3% girls), between the ages of 11 and 18 (interquartile range: 13-15 years; median = 14 years). Multinomial regression models revealed t…
