    The indirect association of personality with perceived stress as mediated by humor in university students during COVID-19

    Humor is known to be an effective coping strategy due to its stress-reducing capabilities (Overholser, 1992; Peterson & Seligman, 2004). However, more recent research into humor has revealed it can also lead to increased levels of stress (Fritz et al., 2017; Martin et al., 2003). Extraverts tend to have positive emotions and are better able to cope with stressful emotions (Ford et al., 2016). However, individuals higher in neuroticism are more likely to engage in maladaptive types of coping strategies and humor (Greengross et al., 2011), putting them at a higher risk for increased stress levels. The current research utilized a two-study design to further explore the relation between personality factors and perceived stress by examining whether humor mediates this association. In Study 1, 342 undergraduate students completed personality, coping humor, and stress measures. Contrary to the hypothesis, coping humor did not significantly mediate personality and perceived stress. Study 2 extended these findings by examining four humor styles as mediators in 311 undergraduate students. The link between extraversion and stress was mediated by affiliative and self-enhancing humor, where affiliative humor led to increased stress, and self-enhancing humor led to decreased stress. The relation between neuroticism and perceived stress was mediated by self-enhancing and self-defeating humor, where decreased use of self-enhancing humor and increased use of self-defeating humor led to increased stress levels. These findings demonstrate how using humor to cope with stress can be vary for individuals who differ on personality dimensions

    Summary of Effects: Impact of InTERSECT on Student Math Achievement and Teacher Perceptions

    This summary of project evaluation findings was presented to the InTERSECT team and DCPS leaders in February 2023 as a supplement to the Year 2 Summative Evaluation Report. The evaluation examined effects of Project InTERSECT on Cohorts 1 and 2, including student mathematics achievement and teacher perceptions. The project has had significant impacts on students’ mathematics achievement. Compared to a business-as-usual group (which was matched to the treatment group based on pretest scores, demographics, and grade level), students in Project InTERSECT classrooms performed significantly higher on iReady Math assessments. Treatment effects were particularly large for kindergarten (Hedges’ g = .34) and first grade students (g = .21). InTERSECT also impacted teachers’ perceptions. Compared to business-as-usual teachers, participants’ efficacy for teaching STEM was significantly higher, with large effects evident in efficacy for teaching Computational Thinking (g = 1.11), Math (g = .91), and Science (g = .63). Participation in InTERSECT also predicted teachers’ leadership beliefs (g = .48); perceptions of the quality and relevance of PD (g = 1.02), collaboration/coaching (g = .79), and feedback (g = .96). In general, findings are consistent across the Teacher Leader and PD pathways, suggesting the effectiveness of both teacher dosages in promoting improvements in teacher perceptions and student performance.https://digitalcommons.unf.edu/stem_research/1001/thumbnail.jp
