Stepping into School
The transition to school is a very important time in children’s educational journey, as well as for their families’ engagement with the community. Previous research has identified the complex interrelations of factors that influence this transition, emphasising the contextual nature of ‘effective’ transition. In recent years, critical theoretical approaches have been utilised to highlight systemic power imbalances within transition processes, par…
Digital Platforms and Relational Practice
This study employed netnography across two early childhood education services that used the Storypark platform to explore how educator-family relationships are enacted through digital communication. Although Storypark is designed to foster collaboration and partnerships, this study indicates that its affordances do not consistently translate into practice. Analysis of digital posts and family interviews revealed that educators primarily used the …
Effects of Persuasive App Design and Self‐Regulation on Young Children’s Digital Disengagement
Despite the vast array of app choices available to children and evidence of a high prevalence of persuasive design features (e.g., rewards, character pressure, and aesthetic manipulation) within these apps, little is known about how, and to what extent, these design elements influence children’s digital app play. The current study investigated the effects of app persuasive design and children’s self‐regulation, and their interaction, on children’…
A meta-analysis of self-regulation and digital recreation from birth to adolescence
There is good reason to implicate self-regulation in our digital recreation duration, choices, and behaviours. However, the direction, degree, and diversity of their association is unclear. To offer more robust and nuanced evidence to this issue of acute public concern, the current study presents a comprehensive meta-analysis of the associations between self-regulation and digital recreation from birth to adolescence – consolidating 183 studies r…
Agency and voice
A wide range of benefits are associated with children's positive transition to school. Applying a critical sociological lens in understanding transitions allows for cycles of sociocultural inequality to be challenged and disrupted. This is of particular importance for understanding transition experiences of children from socially demarcated groups, such as children from refugee backgrounds. This paper outlines how critical sociological theory can…
Crossing Cultural Boundaries in Research
Children and families from refugee backgrounds are underrepresented in many areas of research and when included, are often discussed in a way that focuses on deficits. To address both the underrepresentation and the positioning of people from refugee backgrounds, it is the responsibility of researchers to identify and alleviate barriers in both the design and implementation of research projects. There is significant risk of power disparity betwee…
Unravelling self-regulation in early childhood
Open Science Framework: osf.io/maqdg. Date of registration: 26 Sep 2024
Supporting service integration through early childhood education
Introduction Children and families residing in regional Australia experience higher rates of vulnerabilities coupled with inadequate access to the early childhood health and early intervention services which pose increased risk to their health, development and wellbeing. The current study was designed to respond to the inherent complexity of supporting effective integrated service provision in regional communities, with a view to develop a model …
Assessing the quality of early childhood education and care in Australia
While access to quality education in early childhood is an international priority, the characteristics of quality continue to be debated. In the Australian context, differing views on the characteristics of quality may be a result of differing stakeholder priorities. Divergent notions of quality may lead to initiatives that emphasize educator practice and frame a dominant discourse that situates responsibility for enactment of quality at Early Ch…
Predicting Academic School Readiness and Risk Status from Different Assessment Approaches and Constructs of Early Self-Regulation
How educators in high-quality preschool services understand and support early self-regulation
Educator Beliefs Around Supporting Early Self-Regulation
The current study sought to investigate the extent to which early childhood educators’ confidence in knowledge, attitudes and self-efficacy for supporting early self-regulation predicted educator behavior and children’s self-regulation outcomes. Data from a diverse sample of 165 early childhood educators participating in a cluster Randomized Control Trial evaluation of a self-regulation intervention were utilized to evaluate the construct validit…
Evaluating the viability of a structured observational approach to assessing early self-regulation
Family, child and location factors and parents’ reasons for multiple concurrent childcare arrangements in the years before school in Australia
Approaches to conflict and conflict resolution in toddler relationships
The importance of conflict and its resolution for children’s short- and long-term adjustment has been well established within the research literature. Conflict and conflict resolution differs according to a number of constructs, including age, gender and relationship status. The purpose of this study was to explore conflict origins, resolution strategies and outcomes in two pairs of toddler friends and two pairs of toddler acquaintances aged betw…
