Longitudinal research on students’ interest in higher education showed that interest declines throughout the study program. While researchers reported numerous factors explaining interest on the student level, research on the relationship between the lecturer level and students’ interest development is considered scarce. This study aimed to analyze...

Introduction Diagnostic classification models (DCMs) have received increasing attention in cross-sectional studies. However, L2 learning studies, tracking skill development over time, require models suited for longitudinal analyses. Growth DCMs offer a promising framework for such analyses. Method This study utilizes writing data from two learner...

The capability of scales to detect change, i.e. sensitivity to change, is important in longitudinal studies. We present a quantitative study comparing the effects of alignment to course content and item granularity (generic vs. concrete wording) on the capability of different scales to capture changes in ICT self-efficacy. In an evaluation of a cou...

The purpose of this study was to explore the nature of interactions 10 among second/foreign language (L2) writing subskills.

Context The ability to self‐monitor one's performance in clinical settings is a critical determinant of safe and effective practice. Various studies have shown this form of self‐regulation to be more trustworthy than aggregate judgements (i.e. self‐assessments) of one's capacity in a given domain. However, little is known regarding what cues inform...

Children differ markedly in the way they react when they witness the mishap of another person: While some spontaneously feel sympathy and the wish to alleviate the other’s suffering, others may experience aversive feelings and would like to extricate themselves from the situation if possible. Still others might just turn away. Where do these interi...

Final grades play a decisive role in the selection of future teachers: School-leaving grades (Abitur) determine admission to university, and university degree grades, in turn, are considered in the assessment process for the practical part of teacher training at schools (induction phase). Even in the application process for permanent positions at s...

Das bildungswissenschaftliche Wissen (BW) als Facette professionellen Wissens von Lehrkräften gewinnt in der empirischen Forschung zunehmend an Bedeutung. Die bisherigen Forschungsergebnisse basieren auf der Annahme, dass BW fachunabhängig konzeptualisiert und im Rahmen der universitären Lehrerbildung aufgebaut wird. Es wird daher geprüft, ob BW üb...

Diagnostic classification models (DCMs) hold great potential for applications in summative and formative assessment by providing discrete multivariate proficiency scores that yield statistically driven classifications of students.

Beginning teachers are often associated with high strain and the so called reality shock. Although the German teacher induction process is supposed to ensure a smooth transition to becoming a teacher it is often a subject to criticism. Thus, in 2009 a reform of teacher induction was initiated. Applying a quasi-experimental (contrasting the last coh...

Due to a comparatively weak curricular structure in education faculties, student teachers may determine their study experiences and learning processes largely by themselves, by selecting their own priorities within educational foundation studies. This paper focused on the relationship between individually-chosen educational specializations, self-pe...

Das pädagogische Wissen von Lehrkräften (pedagogical knowledge, PK) wird generell als ein wichtiger Bereich der professionellen Kompetenz von Lehrkräften gesehen.

Recognizing faces swiftly and accurately is of paramount importance to humans as a social species. Individual differences in the ability to perform these tasks may therefore reflect important aspects of social or emotional intelligence. Although functional models of face cognition based on group and single case studies postulate multiple component...

There are large individual differences in perceiving, learning, and recognizing faces swiftly and accurately that have never been systematically investigated. By studying individual differences in 209 participants in a broad variety of indicators, we distinguished three component abilities of face cognition: face perception, face memory, and the sp...

Individual differences in perceiving, learning, and recognizing faces, summarized under the term face cognition, have been shown on the behavioral and brain level, but connections between these levels have rarely been made. We used ERPs in structural equation models to determine the contributions of neurocognitive processes to individual difference...
