Abstract:

The experience of dyslexic students in higher education is examined in this thesis in four studies: two major and two minor. The first study focuses on autobiographical information and describes how the hypothesis and the general theme of the study emerged from personal experience. Study two presents a set of qualitative case studies, which employ Jonathan Smith's Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) technique in order to generate a set of key themes (looking for a reason, social comparison, low self-esteem and need for appropriate support) which are then developed into the questionn

Abstract:

<p> Research has shown that the autonomy supportive motivating style benefits students, yet the controlling motivating style, which has detrimental effects on students, remains prevalent in K-12 classrooms.

Abstract:

Nine psychological techniques used in the rehabilitation of injured athletes were assessed. Fifteen athletic trainers and 68 athletes were asked to rate how valuable each technique was, how skillful the trainer was in using each technique, and how often each technique was used in treatment. A 3 x 11 x 2 (question type x technique x subject type) MANOVA revealed significant main effects for question type F(2,134) = 26.71, p .001 and technique F(10,670) = 15.56, p .001, but not for subject type F(1,67) = 1.81, p =.183.

The purpose of this thesis is to apply an evidence-based perspective to educational interventions and techniques, and more specifically, to examine areas in which techniques ostensibly derived from an understanding of the psychological literature are applied to children’s learning. Broadly, the thesis moves from a review of ‘alternative’ techniques in education, toward empirical studies in areas where techniques informed by psychological science may, or may not, inform educational practice, toward a final empirical study examining the outcomes of the educational process.

Abstract:

Autonomy in learning has long been recognised as an important outcome of higher education. However, not only is learner autonomy not directly measurable but there appears to be no consensus, within the psychological literature, about its definition. This study proposed that, from a number of theoretical perspectives, certain psychological characteristics underpin learner autonomy in students. Of interest were the nature of and changes in these characteristics during the first two years of study at university.

Abstract:

In a typical economic model of higher education, it is assumed that students know how to behave. We assume that they know how to learn, how to set priorities and how to plan. However, given what we know about the pace of stable levels of education in higher education, this is an assumption that should be questioned. In all sectors of higher education, more needs to be done to increase students' persistence in learning. Foreign literature and research in economics, education, and sociology suggest that student coaching may be a way to help students succeed in higher education.

Abstract:

<p> Ninety-five percent of college students procrastinate (O'Brien, 2002), often leading to poor grades (van Eerde, 2003) and anxiety (Rothblum, Solomon, & Murakami, 1986). People seek to avoid aversive stimuli, therefore the more aversive a situation, the more one will avoid (Steel, 2007). This includes avoidance of a task or situation, and experiences associated with that task. Rather than changing ineffective behavior, many suppress or avoid negative experiences, often resulting in ineffective functioning (Hayes, Luoma, Bond, Masuda, & Lillis, 2006).
