Epistemic Emotions and Epistemic Cognition Predict Critical Thinking About Socio-Scientific Issues
When thinking critically about socio-scientific issues, individuals’ expectations about the nature of knowledge and knowing, as well as their emotions when these expectations are met or not, may play an important role in critical thinking. In this study, we examined the role of epistemic emotions in mediating the effects of epistemic cognition on critical thinking when contending with conflicting information about genetically modified foods. Two …
Elementary students’ cognitive and affective responses to impasses during mathematics problem solving
We propose a model delineating the role of control, value, and cognitive disequilibrium in elementary students’ experience of emotions during mathematics problem solving. We tested this model across 2 studies. In Study 1, using an explanatory mixed-methods design, 136 students from Grades 3 to 6 worked on a complex mathematics problem appropriate for their grade level. A think-aloud protocol was used to capture cognitive processes, and trend anal…
