What works in schools? Revising expert and novice teachers' beliefs about school effectiveness: An international comparison
No full textFleckenstein et al. (2015) found that teachers' beliefs about school effectiveness were misaligned with findings of John Hattie's (2008) first comprehensive meta-analysis concerning the determinants of student achievement. The beliefs of expert teachers were more congruent with Hattie’s findings than those of novice teachers who were more likely to underestimate achievement-related variables and overestimate variables related to school surface and infrastructure conditions and student-internal factors. This study re-examines these findings with current samples in Germany and Norway and compares teachers' beliefs with Hattie's updated meta-analysis from 2023. It also examines whether pre-service teachers’ beliefs are influenced by the type of higher education institution (Pädagogische Hochschule vs. University) and the cultural background (German vs. Norwegian). This research aims to understand how professional experience, higher education and cultural context influence teachers' beliefs, and to provide insights for enhancing professional development and educational policy.unknownothe
Verzeichnis Testverfahren: Teil (3) Testverzeichnis geordnet nach Langnamen (31., aktualisierte Auflage 2025)
No full textThe PSYNDEX database contains descriptions of tests, rating scales, questionnaires, interview methods, observation methods, test apparatus, computer-assisted diagnosis measures, and other diagnostic instruments used in German-speaking countries, covering all areas of psychology and education, as well as related disciplines such as medicine, psychiatry, and business. It also contains descriptions of German-language adaptations of American and English tests, as well as tests in other languages. In addition to published tests, unpublished research instruments are also documented. The German-language Verzeichnis Testverfahren (Test Directory) provides test abbreviations, test names, test authors, year of publication, and record number of test description in the PSYNDEX database for 8,826 psychological and educational tests in use in the German-speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Luxembourg). It is structured in five sections. Part 1 organizes tests according to the test categories used in the PSYNDEX database, part 2 lists test abbreviations alphabetically, part 3 lists test names alphabetically, part 4 lists tests by test author(s), part 5 lists test reviews by test abbreviations alphabetically.

Materials for: Athlete Burnout and Health: Testing Longitudinal Mediation via Biomarkers
No full textAbstract (prior to peer review): Athletes often face pressure in competitive sports, which can cause physical and mental health problems including athlete burnout. Burnout is becoming increasingly prevalent in athletes and not only affects mental health but heightens the risk for further physical and mental health consequences. While studies have supported this link, few of these examinations have assessed the possible explanatory mechanisms. Therefore, this study aimed to test whether biomarkers of key physiological systems may mediate the relationship between athlete burnout and mental and physical health outcomes over time. We recruited 64 competitive athletes who completed measures of athlete burnout, physical symptoms, depressive symptoms, and insomnia as well as provided saliva samples for the analysis of biomarkers (testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone-sulphate [DHEA-S], secretory Immunoglobulin A [sIgA]) at three timepoints over six months. At the between level, burnout was associated with all questionnaire measures, while testosterone was associated with physical symptoms. At the within level, burnout predicted depressive symptoms and sIgA predicted insomnia. Exploratory analyses with a Bayesian approach further showed burnout to predict reductions in testosterone, DHEA-S and sIgA. In contrast to our hypotheses, we found no indirect effects linking burnout with potential health consequences via changes in biomarkers. Thus, burnout appears to affect physical and mental health through predominantly direct links.This work was supported by the Swedish Research Council for Sport Science (P2023-0139).unknownunknow
The relationship between Solution Focused Therapy, Basic Needs Deprivation and Depressive Symptoms: case study
No full textThis paper was a case study examining whether there was a relationship between depression and basic needs deprivation. The aim of the study was also to determine the effectiveness and what kind of changes were achieved after a short-term, solution-focused short-term therapy (SFBT) intervention. The prerequisite for participation in the study was meeting the diagnostic criteria for depression. Depression was assessed using both a clinical interview and the PHQ-9 questionnaire. Subjects selected for the study had to meet the PHQ-9 depression scale above the severe threshold, which meant at least 15 points. The depression questionnaire was used during pre- and post-intervention. To study basic needs, the study used the Basic Needs Scale, which was approved by the William Glasser Choice Theory Institute Committee. The basic needs theory used for the purposes of the study belonged to William Glasser's Choice Theory and Reality Therapy model. These basic needs were: survival, love and belonging, power and control, freedom, and fun. Subjects were asked to rate on a 10-point scale how satisfie their needs were before and after therapy, i.e., during pre- and post intervention. An important part of the case study was how the condition of the subjects changed, which also included symptoms and the rate of satisfaction of needs. During the study, therapeutic work with the subjects was carried out only during 5 sessions, one meeting per week. Based on a detailed case study and the research tools used, it was possible to determine what results could be achieved in people with depression as a result of a small, short-term therapeutic intervention and how effective the SFBT method of short-term therapy was in terms of combating depression in the shortest possible time. Efficiency was determined based on a detailed analysis of the instruments and case progress described above. The study used both online and face-to-face sessions. In terms of therapeutic intervention, the standard short-term therapy model - the Solution Focused Art Gallery Model (Iveson, 1999) and the Short-Term Therapy Plus Model (Hjerth, 2005) were used.notReviewedothe

"We grind each other as stones and get rid of sharp edges": Young people's reported positive change, learnings, and growth through romantic relationships [Author Accepted Manuscript]
No full textRomantic and intimate experiences serve as a crucial learning ground for developing healthy relationships, yet many aspects of this learning process remain underexplored. The present qualitative study explores romantic relationship-induced learning among 104 participants between 18 and 35, which may foster better navigation of their future relational interactions. Data, i.e., 37 in-depth and 67 written interviews, were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis, applying an inductive, semantic, and experiential approach. The report of themes created in the analysis describes how romantic experience positively affected the participants in (i) identity (self-knowledge, personal growth, and self-evaluation), (ii) relational competence (communication, socio-emotional skills, and problem-solving), and (iii) partner decisions (relationship expectations, relationship boundaries).This work was supported by the Slovak Research and Development Agency under Contract No. APVV-18-0303 and by the Grant VEGA 2/0173/24 awarded by the Scientific Grant Agency of the Ministry of Education of the Slovak Republic and the Slovak Academy of Sciences.reviewedacceptedVersio
Selecting the number of clusters in Mixture Multigroup Structural Equation Modeling
No full textBehavioral scientists often use Multigroup Structural Equation Modeling (MG-SEM) to compare groups in terms of their latent variables (LVs) relations — also called 'structural relations’. Since LVs are measured indirectly, measurement invariance must be evaluated before comparing structural relations. To efficiently compare many groups, the recently proposed Mixture MG-SEM (MMG-SEM) clusters groups based on their structural relations while accounting for measurement (non-)invariance. MMG-SEM requires the user to select the optimal number of clusters for the data at hand. Various approaches address this problem, but no definitive answer exists on which is best. This paper aims to find the best-performing model selection approach for MMG-SEM through a simulation study by comparing five information criteria and the convex hull procedure and including empirically realistic conditions affecting the clusters’ separability. No universally best measure was found, but based on our results, we recommend using the convex hull combined with another measure (e.g., AIC) when selecting the number of clusters.peerReviewedpublishedVersio
