... Rosyidah et al. (2021) stated that "integer is an essential part of the number concept" (p. 1). Similarly, Nurnberger-Haag et al. (2022) pointed out that "integer operations are crucial aspects of numerical competence necessary for all subsequent mathematics" (p. 1). In addition, Lamb and Thanheiser (2006) stated that "the subject of integers is a very important part of the middle school mathematics curriculum as it symbolizes a move from concrete to abstract thinking" (p. ...
... The School Counseling Program Implementation Survey-Revised (SCPIS-R; Clemens et al., 2010;Fye et al., 2020) is a self-report survey that measures school counselors' level of CSCP implementation. The SCPIS-R (Fye et al., 2020), used in the current study, is a 14-item Likert-type scale ranging from 1 (not present) to 4 (fully implemented). ...
... Phobia, on the other hand, is an intense and irrational fear of certain objects and situations. studies have shown that student social interaction anxiety has adverse effects on various outcomes: academic achievement [6,7], school completion [8,9] and well-being [10]. in iPe, social phobia is considered a barrier to promoting teamwork and collaboration among students [11,12]. Furthermore, reports indicate that students with asian heritage tend to experience higher levels of social anxiety compared with their european and american counterparts [13,14]. ...
... The core competencies are the features required in every job and role and most of which are expected to be demonstrated by all employees, based on the values of the business (Ibrahim et al., 2017). Technical/functional competencies bring success to a particular job, role, or level (Ally et al., 2020). When combined with essential competencies, they form a full set of competencies. ...
... In many different fields, such as education (Alshalawi, 2022;Malik et al., 2018;Muste, 2016), health (Alhadabi & Karpinski, 2020;Khamis & Geng, 2021;Kondo et al., 2020;Leal-Costa et al., 2020), and business (Krishnan et al., 2019;Ulas & Akinci Vural, 2019), the significance of having strong communication skills is readily apparent. There is a correlation between developing and maintaining excellent communication skills and higher academic success (Mohammed, 2015), greater employability (Clokie & Fourie, 2016), and enhanced leadership abilities (Yuningsih & Mulyana, 2017), all of which contribute to an individual's personal development and professional progression. ...
... These events result in a vicious cycle where the longer the child tries to avoid defecation, the more painful the defecation becomes ( Figure 2) [45]. Addressing the psychosocial concerns is crucial for the development of a trusting patient-family physician relationship, promotion of open conversation about the disorder, and adherence to the treatment plan [46,47]. ...
... Formative assessment is thus an effective pedagogy to help students transition to undergraduate thinking (Windschitl, Thompson, Braaten, & Stroupe, 2012)-an especially promising finding, given the relative lack of positive results with technology-infused and flipped calculus classes (Sonnert, Sadler, Sadler, & Bressoud, 2015). No matter what is being taught or how old students are, formative assessment has an effect size of around 0.5 in most quantitative studies-a moderate effect that is achievable with minimal instructor effort (Karpinski & D'Agostino, 2012). ...
... Notable exceptions include Kyaruzi (2023), Kihwele and Mkomwa (2023) and Kyaruzi (2019), all of which, however, employed descriptive analysis. Similar studies are widely acknowledged in middle schools (Zadok and Benoliel, 2023;Hinnant-Crawford et al., 2016;Tayyaba, 2010) and higher learning institutions (Yokoyama, 2019;Alhadabi and Karpinski, 2020;Aarti and Kadian, 2022) on a global scale. The novelty of this study lies in applying social cognitive theory to understand the interplay between SSEF, TPTS, and MATH among secondary schools in Tanzania, using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and the Hayes PROCESS macro. ...
... Behind the factors identified in longitudinal studies, there exist early family contexts characterized by negative submissive expressivity, over-controlling, and intrusive parenting (Hilt et al., 2012). Aspects that are related to family dynamics might place targets in a vulnerable position when they contact bullying scenarios (Dzurec, et al., 2019). Deficiencies in care are also manifested in attachment, i.e., the human capacity to establish bonds and return to them when people face danger (Lecannelier, 2006), and this applies to the anxious type in targets of bullying, as reported in certain studies (e.g., Monks et al., 2009). ...
... Simultaneously, some other research confirmed that gender has no significant association (Ebenuwa-Okoh, 2010). Recent research also suggested that female students can gain and retain the online classes for the male students, but face-to-face classes have converse results (Alghamdi et al., 2020). However, there is no barrier to SU during the class and outside the class on a gender basis. ...
