Adolescents’ health-related quality of life during Covid-19: The role of dispositional mindfulness, emotion regulation, and psychological distress
The COVID-19 pandemic has strongly interfered with young people’s health-related quality of life (HRQoL), increasing the vulnerability of this population. As a result, researchers have been emphasizing the necessity to ascertain the protective factors against the pandemic impact. Still, little is known about these factors in adolescence. Pre-pandemic studies showed that dispositional mindfulness and emotion regulation could protect mental health …
Writing performance in primary grade: Exploring the links between cognitive and motivational variables
Current theoretical models of writing suggest that cognitive and motivational processes interact with each other during written production. However, despite the growing interest in motivational variables in writing, there are still few efforts to study them together with cognitive variables. Therefore, this study aimed to test the possibility that the cognitive processes of transcription and executive functions may be related to writing performan…
“Breathe, Plan, Write, and Evaluate”: The effects of an SRSD intervention and instructional feedback on 4th graders’ writing and motivation
Introduction Over the years, extensive literature attested to the value of the Self-Regulation Strategy Development model (SRSD) for writing. Additionally, feedback has been recognized as essential to the teaching and learning of writing, and as supporting evidence-based instructional models for writing. However, little is known of the effects of combining evidence-based practice models, such as SRSD, with instructional feedback, as well as with …
Effectiveness and Long-Term Effects of SER+ Feliz(mente): A School-Based Mindfulness Program for Portuguese Elementary Students
School-based mindfulness programs (SBMPs) have gained global popularity. Yet, there is a need for more rigorous procedures to develop and assess them. This study aimed to address these limitations by examining the effectiveness of a Portuguese SBMP, called SER + FELIZ(mente). The final sample included 190 third and fourth-graders: 99 in the SBMP group and 91 in a wait-list group. Effects on attentional control, emotional regulation and wellbeing …
Examining Longitudinal and Concurrent Links Between Writing Motivation and Writing Quality in Middle School
Research shows that writing motivation decreases throughout schooling and predicts writing performance. However, this evidence comes primarily from cross-sectional studies. Here, we adopted a longitudinal approach to (a) examine the development of attitudes toward writing, writing self-efficacy domains, and motives to write from Grade 6 to 7, and (b) test their longitudinal and concurrent contribution to the quality of opinion essay in Grade 7, a…
Relating transcription, executive functions and text quality in Grades 2–3: A cross‐lagged panel analysis
BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that children's writing is dependent on transcription and executive functions. However, there is a need for more research examining the relationships among those variables in primary school children, given that most existing studies are cross-sectional and assess transcription and executive functions separately, and there are scarce and mixed longitudinal findings. AIMS: This study used a cross-lagged panel model…

Examining karate and football perceptions and their links with athlete engagement and quality of life
The importance of perceptions as determinants of people's behavior has been well-established, but little is known about athletes' perceptions of their sport and the links of these perceptions with other correlates. In this study, we compared karate ( n = 51) and football ( n = 49) athletes' perceived benefits and aggressiveness risks from their sports and examined whether these perceptions predicted athletes' engagement and quality of life (QoL).…
Análisis de una encuesta sobre la enseñanza de la escritura en la educación obligatoria: Prácticas y variables del profesorado
Se analiza el uso que el profesorado de educación obligatoria afirma hacer en su enseñanza de la escritura de prácticas instruccionales efectivas, derivadas de una revisión de meta-análisis en el ámbito de la instrucción en escritura. Se consideraron las diferencias en el uso de estas prácticas a lo largo de la educación obligatoria y la influencia que tienen variables del docente, como su eficacia, sus actitudes y su preparación. Participaron 51…
The Role of Handwriting Instruction in Writers’ Education
Based on the Writer(s)-within-Community Model, this article focuses on the role of handwriting in writers’ composing process. With the goal of highlighting the importance of researching and promoting handwriting, we provide an extensive summary of current evidence on the topic. It is well established that an important condition for skilled writing is handwriting automaticity. As here reviewed, there are at least four reasons why poor and slow han…
Implicit theories of writing and their impact on students' response to a SRSD intervention
BACKGROUND: In the field of intelligence research, it has been shown that some people conceive intelligence as a fixed trait that cannot be changed (entity beliefs), whereas others conceive it as a malleable trait that can be developed (incremental beliefs). What about writing? Do people hold similar implicit theories about the nature of their writing ability? Furthermore, are these beliefs likely to influence students' response to a writing inte…
Children's high-level writing skills: Development of planning and revising and their contribution to writing quality
BackgroundIt is well established that the activity of producing a text is a complex one involving three main cognitive processes: Planning, translating, and revising. Although these processes are crucial in skilled writing, beginning and developing writers seem to struggle with them, mainly with planning and revising.AimsTo trace the development of the high-level writing processes of planning and revising, from Grades 4 to 9, and to examine wheth…
