All power to the reviewers: British sociology under two-level supervision of the Research Excellence Framework
(2023-03-16)
Our study investigates the impact of the British Research Assessment Exercise in 2008 and Research Excellence Framework in 2014 on the diversity and topic structure of UK sociology departments from the perspective of habitus-field theory. Empirically, we train a Latent Dirichlet allocation on 819,673 abstracts stemming from the journals in which British sociologists submitted at least one paper in the Research Assessment Exercise 2008 or Research Excellence Framework 2014. We then employ the trained model on the 4822 ...

Das digitale Sportangebot „Get Up – Stand Up – Move Up“ während der Covid-19-Pandemie: eine Interviewstudie mit teilnehmenden Grundschulkindern
(2023-04-18)
Die Covid-19-Pandemie führte während des zweiten Lockdowns zu einer Reduktion der körperlichen Aktivität der Kinder in Deutschland. Um den erschwerten Möglichkeiten, sich als Kind zu bewegen, etwas entgegenzusetzen, wurde ein digitales Sportangebot initiiert. Dieses nahm insbesondere die Befriedigung der psychologischen Grundbedürfnisse in den Blick und richtete sich an Kinder im Grundschulalter. Weiterhin stand die Vermittlung von Freude an der Bewegung im Fokus. Fünf bis sechs Wochen nach Projektstart wurden acht ...

The relationship between accuracy in numerosity estimation, math achievement, and math interest in primary school students
(2023-07-10)
Estimation is a primary activity in everyday life, so getting it “right” in primary school provides a foundational basis in mathematical reasoning. This study focuses on numerosity estimation in primary mathematics, which is one of four types of estimation reported in literature. In numerosity estimation, a non-numerical quantitative representation is typically translated into a number. While it is assumed that fostering numerosity estimation has a great impact on the development of mathematical skills, research ...

Is the perceptual disfluency effect moderated by working memory capacity? Direct replication of Lehmann et al. (2016)
(2023-12-30)
According to an aptitude-treatment interaction experiment (Lehmann et al., Metacognition and Learning, 11, 89–105, 2016, N = 47, published in Metacognition and Learning), perceptually disfluent texts facilitated retention and comprehension performance (but not transfer performance) only for learners with higher working memory capacity (WMC). No effects of WMC for a fluent text were found (albeit theoretically, fluency may be more advantageous for learners with lower WMC). The findings of our (pre-registered) direct ...

Gesundheit und Studienpensum von Studierenden: Ergebnisse eines Gesundheitssurveys an der Universität Kassel
(2023-04-28)
Einleitung
Über Gesundheit und Krankheit von Studierenden ist relativ wenig bekannt und die Auswirkungen auf den Studienerfolg sind kaum erforscht. Das Ziel der Studie ist, Assoziationen zwischen dem Gesundheitszustand von Studierenden und dem absolvierten Studienpensum zu analysieren.
Methoden
Es nahmen 3330 von 23.699 immatrikulierten Studierenden der Universität Kassel an der freiwilligen Befragung („computer assisted web interviews“) im März 2022 teil. Die Rücklaufquote betrug 14,1 % unter Bedingungen der ...

Shared digital artifacts – Co-creators as beneficiaries in microlearning development
(2023-08-11)
Continuing vocational training benefits from the employees’ ability to share individual experience and expertise with their co-workers, as these assets constitute competitive advantages for companies. IT-supported systems can facilitate processes of knowledge elicitation (e. g. as part of collaborative co-creation) to ensure retainment of preferred qualitative characteristics of the resulting knowledge artifacts and provide ample opportunities to manage and configure a growing number of such artifacts in a company’s ...

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 ...
