Model Specification Searches in Structural Equation Modeling Using Bee Swarm Optimization
(2023-03-29)
Metaheuristics are optimization algorithms that efficiently solve a variety of complex combinatorial problems. In psychological research, metaheuristics have been applied in short-scale construction and model specification search. In the present study, we propose a bee swarm optimization (BSO) algorithm to explore the structure underlying a psychological measurement instrument. The algorithm assigns items to an unknown number of nested factors in a confirmatory bifactor model, while simultaneously selecting items for ...

Beharrlich, strategisch, integriert. Zur Vorhersage akademischer Studienadaptation von Lehramtsstudierenden durch Beharrlichkeit und den Einsatz von Lernstrategien
(2023-12-18)
Studienadaption als Anpassungsprozess an das universitäre Umfeld ist im Studium von großer Bedeutung, da eine mangelnde soziale oder akademische Adaption zum Studienabbruch führen kann. Der Zusammenhang der akademischen Studienadaption mit Aspekten strategischen Lernverhaltens, wie etwa der Nutzung von Lernstrategien und der Beharrlichkeit als Aspekt der Leistungsmotivation, wurde bisher nur unzureichend untersucht. Dieser Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, welche Lernstrategien in Kombination mit Beharrlichkeit ...

Multilingualism is associated with small task-specific advantages in cognitive performance of older adults
(2023-10-07)
The protective effects of multiple language knowledge on the maintenance of cognitive functions in older adults have been discussed controversially, among others, because of methodological inconsistencies between studies. In a sample of N = 528 German monolinguals and multilinguals (speaking two or more languages) older than 60 years, this study examined (1) whether speaking multiple languages is positively related to performance on tasks of interference suppression, working memory, concept shifting, and phonemic and ...

Between Trust and Ambivalence: How Does Trainee Teachers’ Perception of the Relationship With Their Mentors Explain How Trainee Teachers Experience Their Work?
(2023-11-23)
The study aims to identify profiles of trainee teachers in terms of their stress and work experiences and to uncover profile differences in regard to dropout intentions and perceived relationships between trainee teachers and their mentors. Based on data from 1,756 German trainee teachers, three distinct stress and work experience profiles could be identified. Trainee teachers with high levels of stress and negative work experiences exhibit higher dropout intentions and experience their relationship with their mentors ...
