  Teacher Expectations, Social-emotional Skills and Academic Achievement in Primary School: The Role of Mediator

  This study investigates the mediating role of primary school students’ socioemotional skills, such as goal-achievement skills, collaboration, and emotional management in the relationship between teachers’ expectations and students’ academic achievement. The study is based on data from the START-PROGRESS longitudinal study, which includes Russian schoolchildren and teachers. Structural equation modelling was used to model complex relationships between variables, including direct and indirect pathways of effect. The findings revealed that among the three socioemotional skills examined, only goal-achievement skills weakly mediated the relationship between teachers’ expectations and students’ academic achievement in the middle of primary school, and only in mathematics.

  Exploring Patterns of Information Literacy Development in Schools: Application of Multilevel Latent Class Analysis to School Students Survey Data

  While the literature on digital transformation in education has searched for evidence based practices to improve ICT uptake in school settings, we know little about how schools differ in their approaches. This study aims to overcome the absence of standardized tools that could help to assess the stages and progress of ICT integration in educational settings. By using the example of information literacy development tasks assignment in classroom, we applied a latent class analysis to the survey data obtained from the monitoring the digital transformation of schools in the 2020–21 academic year. Based on the survey data from monitoring the digital transformation of schools, four types of students’ patterns were identified, depending on the information skills tasks assigned to them by their teachers at school. Based on the distribution of students’ patterns of working with information, three typical patterns of schools were identified with the use of multilevel latent class analysis. This study provides evidence for how the development of information literacy differs across schools contexts. As with advent of digital technologies education becomes data intensive domain, new approaches to the big data analysis are encouraged and it can help educators and education policy makers to improve decision-making.

  Explicit continuum scale format reduces the ceiling effect in self-report questionnaires comparing to Likert response format

  This study presents a methodology for developing a new questionnaire format called explicit continuum scenario scales, in the example of a client focus questionnaire. Elements of the Rasch Guttman scenario scale methodology were used in its development. In three consequent studies, different aspects of the scale functioning were investigated. In Study 1, on the sample of 100 respondents, it was shown that the explicit continuum scale produces reliable results and helps avoid the ceiling effect shown in the Likert response format version of the client focus questionnaire. In Study 2, the scale was administered in a competition environment, in a sample of 735 people. Despite the positive shift of scores, the instrument shows excellent psychometric characteristics and still resists the ceiling effect. In Study 3, new items were included, and the scale was presented in an interactive format. In the sample of 65,000 university students, it demonstrated the robustness of its psychometrics characteristics including dimensionality. The results of the three studies show that the explicit continuum format has the advantage of the stable dimensionality similar to the expanded format and is promising for measurement in social sciences.
