Intercultural sensitivity of preservice primary school teachers: Insights from a modified intercultural sensitivity scale and interethnic friendship, plurilingualism, and socioeconomic status as key a…
Intercultural sensitivity, the affective component of intercultural communication competence, is essential for teachers to develop during their studies to succeed in increasingly diverse schools. In the present study, the intercultural sensitivity of preservice teachers (n = 215) in Slovenia was assessed using the ISS-S, the Slovenian version of the intercultural sensitivity scale. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed the need for adaptation to …
What makes future teachers successful? A longitudinal study on pre-service teachers
This study aims to examine pre-service teachers’ academic success longitudinally. We studied in 537 pre-service students how three criteria of success (achievement, intention to persistent and actual retention) could be predicted by demographic, cognitive, personality, and motivational variables. Applying structural equation modelling, we found distinct patterns in the predictive power of the variables across the criteria. About one fourth of the…
Synthesising models of primary school mathematicians by putting influencing factors of mathematics performance to the test
The gender-sensitive analysis of influencing factors on mathematical performance of primary school pupils can yield valuable insights into facilitating this vital phase of pupils’ educational trajectory. We view gender-sensitive mathematical performance in primary school based on works of Niklas ( Psychologie in Erziehung und Unterricht , 62 , 106, 2015) and Luttenberger et al. ( Psychology Research and Behavior Management , 11 , 311–322, 2018). …
Internship integrated practitioner research projects foster student teachers’ professional learning and research orientation: A mixed-methods study in initial teacher education
Practitioner research as one approach of research-based learning in teacher education aims at the enhancement of student teachers’ professional learning and research orientation. As current research does not provide sufficiently detailed and generalisable findings about the effects of internship integrated practitioner research, the present mixed-methods study combines qualitative and quantitative methods to deliver valuable insights. Content ana…
A cautionary note on aggregation in educational psychology and beyond
This article addresses aggregation as a fundamental practice in educational psychology and ties it into the idiographic/nomothetic distinction, that is, distinguishing between studying what once was and studying what always is. I address the underlying assumptions of seminal educational research (OECD’s large-scales assessment and Hattie’s synthesizing meta-analyses). I argue that educational psychologists assume a priori general educational prin…
Friends as a language learning resource in multilingual primary school classrooms
Interactions with classroom friends may be an important contributor to first and second language development, but to date this hypothesis has not been tested. Using a longitudinal design, the current study investigated the relationship between classroom friendships and oral language development in children. In 8 classrooms, we assessed the relationship between oral language skills and classroom social networks. Across the classrooms, 165 primary …
Multicultural attitudes of prospective teachers: The influence of multicultural ideology and national pride
Using students’ feedback for teacher education: Measurement invariance across pre-service teacher-rated and student-rated aspects of quality of teaching
Comparing self-perceived quality of teaching to students’ perception can be used in higher education to improve the quality of teaching of pre-service teachers in teacher education. However, comparing these measurements from different perspectives is only meaningful if the same constructs are being measured. To shed light on this comparison’s meaningfulness, we scrutinised whether aspects of quality of teaching are measured in the same way across…
The life-skills program Lions Quest in Austrian schools: Implementation and outcomes
This article investigates the importance of implementation level for the effectiveness of the school-based life skills program Lions Quest in a sample of Austrian students (n = 363 from three schools; aged 9-15 at T1). A quasi-experimental pre- and post-test design with intervention and control group over 2 years was used. The effects of low, average, and high implementation levels on the outcome variables classroom climate, bullying and psychoso…
