Facilitators and barriers along the pathways from secondary school to medical programmes- results from a national longitudinal study in Aotearoa New Zealand
Secondary school academic achievement is the most predictive measure for successful medical school selection, followed by aptitude tests and, to a lesser extent, interviews. Despite extensive research on medical student selection, little is known about the factors influencing the pathway to medical school prior to the selection process. This study aimed to identify changeable facilitators and barriers along the pathway from secondary school to me…
Preventing the Abuse and Misuse of Over-the-Counter Medicines
In total, 442 responses were received. Most respondents strongly agreed (Md all = 5) that OTC medicines could be abused or misused; pharmacy owners were more likely to strongly agree than pharmacists ( p = 0.012). Pharmacy owners were more likely to think that laxatives were liable for abuse than dispensers ( p = 0.008), and that travel sickness medicines were liable for misuse than dispensers ( p p = 0.013). Patient counseling was the most commo…
Cooperative learning in physical education lessons - literature review
Cooperative learning in physical education classes is perceived as beneficial. The aim of this article was to examine whether field studies that include cooperative learning in their physical education intervention programs provide applicable data—to allow teachers to choose the optimal teaching strategy in line with their teaching goals. A systematic review of 44 research studies, published between 2000 and 2020, was conducted. Data related to t…
Trust and risk pitfalls in medical education
PURPOSE: Learning opportunities in teaching hospitals are gated by clinical teachers. One way to unpack their decision-making is to employ a 'trust and risk' model. This study aimed to uncover clinical teachers' experience of trust, risk and vulnerability as they participate in medical education. METHODS: Hospital-based clinical teachers were interviewed about trust, risk and vulnerability in medical education. Data analysis was undertaken using …
Gender matters when sports engagement and self-efficacy interact with academic achievement
Physical education in Aotearoa New Zealand primary schools
Whilst globally there has been a great deal of discussion and rhetoric regarding the state of physical education at the primary level, there is a paucity of evidence regarding teachers’ perceptions of quality physical education in practice. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to explore and interpret primary school teachers’ perceptions of physical education in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) and identify the influence(s) of education, sport an…
The Objective Borderline Method
A new probability-based standard setting technique, the Objective Borderline Method (OBM), was introduced recently. This was based on a mathematical model of how test scores relate to student ability. The present study refined the model and tested it using 2500 simulated data-sets. The OBM was feasible to use. On average, the OBM performed well with specificity .88, sensitivity .51, false positive rate 3.4% and false negative rate 26%. These indi…
Validity of Two Language Versions of the Auckland Individualism and Collectivism Scale with Filipino-English Bilinguals
Measuring Collectivism and Individualism in the Third Millennium
The aim in this study was to validate the Auckland Individualism-Collectivism Scale (AICS) across populations from 5 different countries and identify better ways to interpret the scores. Data were collected from New Zealand, Portugal, China, Italy, and Romania. The results indicate that the AICS is not only valid but also highly reliable (α > .70). Cluster analysis identified 4 clusters: low collectivism – high individualism; high collectivism – …
Do extra-curricular activities in schools improve educational outcomes? A critical review and meta-analysis of the literature
Parenting education and support policies and their consequences in selected OECD countries
Extracurricular activities in school, do they matter
Student pathways at the university
This article outlines a longitudinal pathway analysis of student performance within educational institutions, so as to identify student profiles which describe those groups of students who are more likely to complete or leave a bachelor degree program, and to identify the predictors for these outcomes. The analyses are based on 7314 undergraduate student enrolment and completion data, covering the period from 2001 to 2005, from a large metropolit…
The effect of student loan schemes on students returning to study
In this paper populations of students returning to tertiary study in the period 1997–2005 have been compared with the population of non‐returning students who had the same opportunity to return. Such comparisons were conducted for students who returned after a break of 1–7 years (seven comparison groups). Students with the highest likelihood of returning were found to be: (i) students who had an outstanding student loan prior to their return that…
The predictability of enrolment and first-year university results from secondary school performance
This study investigates the predictive correlations between results from the New Zealand National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA), a standards‐based qualification, and university grade point averages achieved by first‐year students in one large New Zealand University (and, for comparison purposes, also presents correlations from the Cambridge International Examinations [CIE], an international norm‐referenced system delivered in New …
