The Relationship Between Psychological Well‐Being and Second Language Skills Among Refugee Students in Primary Education
Teachers of young refugees express concerns about their students’ psychological well‐being and suspect underlying trauma is a hurdle for learning the host country language. This study examines how psychological well‐being (including post‐traumatic stress, internalizing behavior, externalizing behavior, and protective resources) relate to host country language skills. Participants were 4‐ to 8‐year‐old students with a refugee background in the Net…
The relationship between basic psychological need satisfaction and intrinsic motivation
A within-person perspective with several measurement points per individual allows to analyse relations between variables within individuals. Such an approach is still scarce in research from a self-determination theory perspective. Therefore, this study measured basic psychological need satisfaction and intrinsic motivation in real-time and at several lessons with the experience sampling method. In this way, the relationship between need satisfac…
Differences in Well-Being at School Between Young Students With and Without a Refugee Background
Students with a refugee background are a vulnerable group in education. Adverse experiences and unsafe circumstances that they encounter prior, during and after their flight can place a great burden on their mental health and psychological well-being. Little is known about the psychological well-being of young refugee students in kindergarten and early years of primary school. The current study examined the psychological well-being of 4- to 8-yea…
Teaching in times of Covid-19
Real-time teacher-student interactions
This study explored the relation between need supportive teaching and early adolescents’ engagement in moment-to-moment interactions and the development of interactional patterns over time. A single case study was conducted on one teacher and her eighth grade classroom, using classroom video observations evenly spread over the course of one school year. Multilevel and State Space Grid analyses showed that what the teacher did (in terms of support…
It also takes teachers to tango
Interventions are not always implemented with fidelity in education thereby confining their effectiveness. Socially valid interventions that match the needs and demands of teachers are implemented with more fidelity. This design study aims to elucidate which factors enhance or impede the social validity of an intervention aimed at promoting the social participation of students with disabilities. A social validity assessment via interviews was con…
Applying the Contact Theory in Inclusive Education
Children’s Creativity
Within education, the importance of creativity is recognized as an essential 21st-century skill. Based on this premise, the first aim of this article is to provide a theoretical integration through the development of a framework based on the principles of complex dynamic systems theory, which describes and explains children’s creativity. This model is used to explain differing views on the role of education in developing children’s creativity. Ou…
A dynamic model that links skill acquisition with self-determination in instrumental music lessons
Music education researchers have sought to clarify two fundamental issues. The first concerns ‘the extent to which musical progress is sequenced and orderly, and why some children’s progress appears to be effortless in contrast to others who struggle’ (McPherson, 2005, p. 5). The second concerns how successful learners are able to acquire the resilience needed to ‘bounce back’ despite stresses and distractions which impact on motivation and a des…
