Summary: Epistemological beliefs are educationally relevant subjective assumptions of teachers and learners about the nature of human knowledge and knowledge acquisition. In several previous studies, young adults studying “hard” sciences have reported ...
Abstract. The present study explored multilevel variance for a range of salient psycho-educational factors in mathematics. With a sample of 4,383 students (Years 5–8) in 257 classrooms and 47 schools, data indicated ...
Intensive measurement burst designs permit analysis of behavioral and biological processes as they unfold over short and long periods of time and providing the opportunity to identify change from an individual’s normative level of functioning. The ...
School burnout can be defined as consisting of exhaustion due to school demands, cynical, and detached attitude toward one’s school, and feelings of inadequacy as a student (Kiuru, Aunola, Nurmi, Leskinen, & Salmela-Aro, 2008; Salmela-Aro & Näätänen, 2005;...
The current study proposes and refines the Appraisals in Personality (AIP) model in a multilevel investigation of whether appraisal dimensions of emotion predict differences in state neuroticism and extraversion. University students (N = 151) completed a ...
Abstract. An important problem in multilevel modeling is what constitutes a sufficient sample size for accurate estimation. In multilevel analysis, the major restriction is often the higher-level sample size. In this paper, a simulation study is used to ...
The p2 model is a random effects model with covariates for the analysis of binary directed social network data coming from a single observation of a social network. Here, a multilevel variant of the p2 model is proposed for the case of multiple ...
In a multilevel framework several researches have investigated the behavior of estimates in finite samples, particularly for continuous dependent variables. Some findings show poor precise estimates for the variance components. On the other hand, discrete ...
Abstract. Dyadic data often appear in social and behavioral research, and multilevel models (MLMs) can be used to analyze them. For dyadic data, the group size is 2, which is the minimum group size we could have for fitting a multilevel ...
Abstract. In repeated cross-sections of organizations, different individuals are sampled from the same set of organizations at each time point of measurement. As a result, common longitudinal data analysis methods (e.g., latent growth ...
Abstract. Because survey response rates are consistently declining worldwide, survey researchers strive to obtain as much auxiliary information on sampled units as possible. Surveys using in-person interviewing often request that ...
Abstract. The current study proposed a new model, termed the cross-classified multiple membership latent variable regression (CCMM-LVR) model that provides an extension to the three-level latent variable regression (HM3-LVR) model that can ...
Abstract. We propose that two aspects of leadership, perceived respectful leadership and the degree of leaders’ prototypicality, positively affect employee proactivity. A multisource and multilevel field study ...
