School connectedness in the investigation of adolescents’ learning and well-being development
School is an important social setting for adolescents to develop connections with peers, teachers and school personnel, and this connection can positively influence their learning outcomes and overall well-being development. However, there are relatively few comprehensive reviews on the conceptualisation and operationalisation of school connectedness. This systematic scoping review focuses on school as an essential social and learning environment…
Effective Teacher Professional Development
Multiple meta-analyses have now documented small positive effects of teacher professional development (PD) on pupil test scores. However, the field lacks any validated explanatory account of what differentiates more from less effective in-service training. As a result, researchers have little in the way of advice for those tasked with designing or commissioning better PD. We set out to remedy this by developing a new theory of effective PD based …
Public Involvement in Complex Theorising
INTRODUCTION: There is increasing work towards drawing on theory, implementing co-production and accounting for complexity within the production of systematic reviews for public health. In this paper, we report on the process of co-producing a theory; in this case, a graphical articulation of theory in the form of a logic model, which describes how contextual factors influence children's health. METHODS: We undertook a series of three online co-p…
Narratives of community engagement
Alcohol advertising and public health
Background Alcohol consumption is influenced by a complex causal system of interconnected psychological, behavioural, social, economic, legal and environmental factors. These factors are shaped by governments (eg, licensing laws and taxation), by consumers (eg, patterns of alcohol consumption drive demand) and by alcohol industry practices, such as advertising. The marketing and advertising of alcoholic products contributes to an ‘alcogenic envir…

The Big-fish–little-pond-effect Stands Up to Critical Scrutiny
The big-fish–little-pond effect (BFLPE) predicts that equally able students have lower academic self-concepts (ASCs) when attending schools where the average ability levels of classmates is high, and higher ASCs when attending schools where the school-average ability is low. BFLPE findings are remarkably robust, generalizing over a wide variety of different individual student and contextual level characteristics, settings, countries, long-term fo…
Reciprocal Effects Between Academic Self-Concept, Self-Esteem, Achievement, and Attainment Over Seven Adolescent Years
In their influential review, Baumeister, Campbell, Krueger, and Vohs (2003) concluded that self-esteem— the global component of self-concept—has no effect on subsequent academic performance. In contrast, Marsh and Craven's (2006) review of reciprocal effects models from an explicitly multidimensional perspective demonstrated that academic self-concept and achievement are both a cause and an effect of each other. Ironically, both reviews cited cla…
Do Self-Concept Interventions Make a Difference? A Synergistic Blend of Construct Validation and Meta-Analysis
Traditional reviews and previous meta-analyses of self-concept interventions have underestimated effect sizes by using an implicitly unidimensional perspective that emphasizes global self-concept. In contrast, this research employed a synergistic blend of meta-analysis and multidimensional construct validation to evaluate the impact of self-concept interventions for children in 145 primary studies (200 interventions). Overall, interventions were …
