Foster, Holly A.; Chesnut, Steven; Thomas, James; Robinson, Courtney – Impacting Education: Journal on Transforming Professional Practice, 2023
Purpose: Higher education, as a field of study, is one of the few programmatic areas that offer two doctoral degrees: The Doctor of Education (EdD) and the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). In the United States, the two degrees are often conflated. Conversations, to this point, have done more to contribute to the theoretical debate than to operationally…

Grossman, Amanda; Twardus, Ian – Administrative Issues Journal: Connecting Education, Practice, and Research, 2023
A persisting shortage of accounting Ph.D. program graduates has plagued academia for at least the last two decades. Despite suggestions fueled by research findings, traditional accounting Ph.D. programs appear to have not implemented substantial changes aimed at alleviating this problem. The present study surveys accounting Ph.D. program…

Chong, Sin Wang – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2022
PhD by Published Work has become an increasingly common option for experienced researchers in Europe, including the UK. While thesis requirements of a PhD by Published Work differ from those of a traditional monograph, guidelines on how to write a PhD by Published Work thesis (commentary) vary across institutions, giving rise to issues pertaining…

Bonni S. Cohen – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The traditional route of obtaining a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in nursing is vertical: a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN), followed by PhD in nursing. An ongoing shortage of PhD-prepared nurses--nurse educators and nurse researchers, in particular, has spurred the creation of more pathways to obtaining a PhD in Nursing. In recent years, there…

Lana D. Womack – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The confusion between an EdD or PhD, the two terminal degrees in education, remains as current as it was at the beginning of the degrees' existence. The common belief is that the EdD is practitioner-oriented and the PhD research-oriented. The aim of present research is to clarify the confusion by conducting a corpus analysis of the aboutness of…

Sarah Leckey; Shefali Bhagath; Elliott G. Johnson; Simona Ghetti – Child Development, 2024
Memory decision-making in 26- to 32-month-olds was investigated using visual-paired comparison paradigms, requiring toddlers to select familiar stimuli (Active condition) or view familiar and novel stimuli (Passive condition). In Experiment 1 (N = 108, 54.6% female, 62% White; replication N = 98), toddlers with higher accuracy in the Active…

Morphemes, the smallest meaning-bearing units of language, recur in many words. Therefore, morphological knowledge can facilitate the comprehension of novel words. This study tested the effectiveness of a morphological training program on children's learning and retention of exposed words and morphologically related unexposed words compared with…

Shan, Hairong; Ayers, Natasha; Kiley, Margaret – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2020
Conceptions of research, which lead to approaches to research, provide useful insights into how candidates think about research. In terms of doctoral candidate development, understanding and appreciating these various conceptions can assist in supporting candidate learning. This study evaluated differences in conceptions of research between PhD…

Valverde, Israel; Gomez, Gorka; Byrne, Nick; Anwar, Shafkat; Silva Cerpa, Miguel Angel; Martin Talavera, Maria; Pushparajah, Kuberan; Velasco Forte, Maria Nieves – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
The utility of three-dimensional (3D) printed models for medical education in complex congenital heart disease (CHD) is sparse and limited. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of 3D printed models for medical education in criss-cross hearts covering a wide range of participants with different levels of knowledge and experience,…

Carrazoni, Guilherme Salgado; Chaves, Amanda Dalla'corte; da Rocha, Claudio Felipe Kolling; Mello-Carpes, Pâmela Billig – Advances in Physiology Education, 2023
We created the "3-dimensional synaptic puzzle" (3Dsp) as an educational resource for the physiology teaching of synaptic transmission (ST). In this study, we aimed to apply and evaluate the use of 3Dsp. For this, we divided 175 university students from public and private universities into two groups: (1) control (CT; students that were…

Attention Training Improves the Self-Reported Focus and Emotional Regulation of High School Students
Mrazek, Alissa J.; Mrazek, Michael D.; Brown, Chelsea S.; Karimi, Sana S.; Ji, Rosie R.; Ortega, Joshua R.; Maul, Andrew; Carr, Peter C.; Delegard, Alex M.; Kirk, Arianna C.; Schooler, Jonathan W. – Grantee Submission, 2022
Previous research points to digital attention training as a potential remedy for the growing levels of distraction and emotional distress that adolescents experience. However, no studies with a comparison group have been conducted in high school settings to assess the feasibility and efficacy of digital attention training. Using a two-group,…

Taymaz, Neris – Journal of Language and Linguistic Studies, 2021
In the path of academic writing, authors accomplish certain interactions with their readers through the means of meta-discourse markers such as hedges and boosters. There have been many studies that dwell on the function of meta-discourse markers (Abdi, Rizi, & Tavakoli, 2010; Crismore, 1984; Hyland, 1999, 2000, 2001; Longo, 1994). However,…

Widder, Mirela; Berman, Avi; Koichu, Boris – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2019
Aiming to enhance understanding of visual obstacles inherent in two-dimensional (2-D) sketches used in high school spatial geometry instruction, we propose a measure of visual difficulty based on two attributes of the sketches: potentially misleading geometrical information (PMI) and potentially helpful geometrical information (PHI). The…
