Training early visuo-spatial abilities: A controlled classroom-based intervention study
Visuo-spatial training is considered a promising approach to provide young children with a sound foundation for later mathematical learning. We developed and implemented a tablet-based visuo-spatial intervention in kindergarten classrooms aiming to foster the development of children’s visuo-spatial and numerical abilities. A sample of N = 125 children participated in the present study, 68 children were part of the intervention group and participa…
Die prognostische Validität der Sekundarschulempfehlung in Luxemburg: Eine Gegenüberstellung von Verbleibsquoten und Leistungstestdaten
Mit der vorliegenden Studie wurde die prognostische Validität der Sekundarschulempfehlung im dritten Jahr der Sekundarstufe anhand einer repräsentativen Stichprobe luxemburgischer Schülerinnen und Schüler einer Schuljahrgangskohorte untersucht. Dazu wurden die Verbleibsquoten der Schülerinnen und Schüler auf dem jeweils empfohlenen Schulzweig ermittelt. Darüber hinaus gingen wir davon aus, dass sich eine Bewährung der Sekundarschulempfehlung auch…
The Kind of Student You Were in Elementary School Predicts Mortality
We examined the association of self‐reported and teacher‐rated student characteristics assessed at the end of primary school with all‐cause mortality assessed through age 52. Data stem from a representative sample of students from Luxembourg assessed in 1968 ( N = 2,543; M = 11.9 years, SD = 0.6; 49.9% female; N = 166 participants died). Results from logistic regression analyses showed that the self‐reported responsible student scale (OR = .81; C…
Childhood intelligence predicts premature mortality: Results from a 40-year population-based longitudinal study
Student characteristics and behaviors at age 12 predict occupational success 40 years later over and above childhood IQ and parental socioeconomic status
Drawing on a 2-wave longitudinal sample spanning 40 years from childhood (age 12) to middle adulthood (age 52), the present study was designed to examine how student characteristics and behaviors in late childhood (assessed in Wave 1 in 1968) predict career success in adulthood (assessed in Wave 2 in 2008). We examined the influence of parental socioeconomic status (SES), childhood intelligence, and student characteristics and behaviors (inattent…
“My Questionnaire is Too Long!” The assessments of motivational-affective constructs with three-item and single-item measures
Une nouvelle perspective et de nouveaux défis pour les enquêtes internationales: Vers un testing assisté par ordinateur
Le présent article analyse les changements qui ont été introduits dans les enquêtes comparatives internationales (plus spécifiquement celles de l’OCDE) par suite de l’introduction du testing assisté par ordinateur. On passera en revue les différents instruments de mesure administrés par ordinateur qui ont été utilisés dans les différents cycles de ces enquêtes et on discutera si elles ont réellement impliqué une valeur ajoutée, notamment par le f…
Les modèles de mesure en éducation: Enjeux, développements et orientations
Cet article vise à dresser un bilan des études ayant porté sur les modèles de mesure ou sur un aspect particulier de ces derniers au cours des trente der nières années. Pour ce faire, nous avons réalisé une recension des écrits à partir de quatorze revues internationales traitant, notamment, des modèles de mesure en éducation. Après avoir effectué une synthèse des résultats qui ressortent de notre analyse des articles sélectionnés, nous présenton…
Personality is related to educational outcomes in late adolescence: Evidence from two large-scale achievement studies
Stability and change in intelligence from age 12 to age 52: Results from the Luxembourg Magrip study
The present longitudinal study tackled 2 key aspects of the development of intelligence across a 40-year time period from age 12 to age 52 concerning (a) stability and change in the structure of intelligence with reference to the age differentiation-dedifferentiation hypothesis (how different cognitive abilities relate to each other across age) and (b) differential stabilities (the rank ordering of persons' intelligence levels across time). To th…
Bilingualism Enriches the Poor: Enhanced Cognitive Control in Low-Income Minority Children
This study explores whether the cognitive advantage associated with bilingualism in executive functioning extends to young immigrant children challenged by poverty and, if it does, which specific processes are most affected. In the study reported here, 40 Portuguese-Luxembourgish bilingual children from low-income immigrant families in Luxembourg and 40 matched monolingual children from Portugal completed visuospatial tests of working memory, abs…
Does childhood general cognitive ability at age 12 predict subjective well-being at age 52
Revisiting the Structure of Subjective Well-Being in Middle-Aged Adults
How can we enhance girls' interest in scientific topics
Background. Girls are considerably less interested in scientific subjects than boys. One reason may be that scientific subjects are considered to be genuinely masculine. Thus, being interested in science may threaten the self-perception of girls as well as the femininity of their self-image.Aims. If scientific topics that are considered to be stereotypically feminine were chosen, however, this potential threat might be overcome which, in turn, mi…
