Abstract. This article uses a person-environment fit perspective to investigate whether and how educational background and general trust are related to fit (or not) with university life as well as to criteria of subjective academic success and well-being. To analyze how students perceive fit with their university, we measured their perception of exclusion and their affective commitment. The sample includes N = 424 students from two German universities, about half of whom have at least one parent with tertiary education. The results show that especially general trust is related to the subjective criteria of academic success, and that this relationship is mediated by the perception of exclusion, on the one hand, and by the affective commitment, on the other hand. A comparison of the two mediators shows that the perception of exclusion is particularly potent in terms of predicting satisfaction with coping with study demands and general well-being. We discuss the results in terms of their significance to the future diversity management at universities for overcoming social inequality and increasing social inclusion.

Abstract. The study examines (a) whether gestational age relates to parental scaffolding (SCA), when controlling for child cognitive development, parenting stress, and socioeconomic status, and (b) how SCA links to parent–child problem-solving performance. The sample included 142 parents with a full-term or preterm 2-year-old toddler (corrected age). Parents’ SCA during one of two (randomly assigned) problem-solving tasks was rated on five scales (use of SCA means, cognitive support, metacognitive support, transfer or responsibility, contingency management). The results suggest that gestational age is positively related to parents’ transfer of responsibility and metacognitive support. The effects decrease, however, once covariates are controlled for. Regarding the problem-solving performance, direct effects were observed from parents’ cognitive and metacognitive support, transfer of responsibility, and contingency management. The data also confirm an indirect effect of parents’ use of SCA means on the problem-solving performance, partially mediated via parents’ cognitive support. Implications for the design of interventions are discussed.

Zusammenfassung. In der vorliegenden Studie wird das neu entwickelte Rechtschreibtraining mit Dino hinsichtlich seiner Auswirkungen auf die Lese-Rechtschreibkompetenz sowie motivationale Variablen evaluiert. 111 Kinder der dritten und vierten Jahrgangsstufe wurden randomisiert einer Interventions- ( n = 60) bzw. Kontrollgruppe ( n = 51 ) zugeteilt. Mitglieder der Interventionsgruppe wurden in Kleingruppen über einen etwa dreimonatigen Zeitraum von Studierenden gefördert. Varianzanalysen mit Messwiederholung zeigten, dass die Interventionsgruppe sich im Vergleich zur Kontrollgruppe signifikant stärker in ihrer Rechtschreibleistung und den Fähigkeitsselbstkonzepten Schreiben und Lesen verbesserte. Auch die Leseleistung nahm signifikant zu, wurde in der Kontrollgruppe jedoch nicht erfasst. Modelle latenter Veränderungsmessung zeigten positive Effekte der Intervention auf die latente Differenz im Fähigkeitsselbstkonzept Schreiben und die Differenz in der Rechtschreibekompetenz. Zudem lag ein positiver Zusammenhang der beiden Veränderungsvariablen vor. Neben dem Nachweis der Effektivität des Rechtschreibtrainings mit Dino leistet die Studie durch die Fokussierung motivationaler Variablen einen innovativen Beitrag in der Evaluationsforschung von Lese-Rechtschreibtrainings.

Zusammenfassung. Die Vorhersagekraft selbstregulatorischer Fähigkeiten für die Entwicklung früher akademischer Kompetenzen wurde vielfach hervorgehoben. Allerdings bestehen häufig variierenden Definitionen von Selbstregulation, die mit verschiedenen Operationalisierungsvarianten einhergehen. Das Ziel dieses systematischen Reviews ist es, unter Berücksichtigung der verschiedenen Definitionen, eine Übersicht der Ergebnisse zur Vorhersagekraft vorschulischer Selbstregulationsfähigkeiten auf die akademischen Kompetenzen in der Grundschule zu erstellen. Eine systematische Literaturrecherche in den bibliografischen Fachdatenbanken Web of Science, PsycINFO und Psyndex ergab 1.509 Studien, von denen 22 Studien die weiteren Einschlusskriterien erfüllt haben. Trotz unterschiedlicher Erhebungsmethoden und Definitionen unterstützen die Studienergebnisse übereinstimmend die bedeutende Rolle vorschulischer Selbstregulationsfähigkeiten für die Entwicklung mathematischer Kompetenzen und Lese- und Schreibfähigkeiten in den frühen Grundschuljahren. Insbesondere kognitive Aspekte der Selbstregulation scheinen im Zusammenhang mit der Schulleistungsfähigkeit von Kindern zu stehen. Implikationen für frühe Trainingsmaßnahmen und die Übertragbarkeit der Erkenntnisse der vorwiegend internationalen Studien auf das deutsche Bildungssystem werden diskutiert.
总结自我调节技能对早期学术能力发展的预测能力已被多次强调。然而,自我调节的定义往往各不相同,它们与不同的操作变体有关。本系统综述的目的是,考虑到不同的定义,概述学前自我调节技能对小学学业能力的预测能力的结果。在文献数据库Web of Science、PsycINFO和Psyndex中进行的系统文献检索显示,有1.509项研究符合进一步纳入标准,其中22项研究符合纳入标准。尽管调查方法和定义不同,但研究结果始终支持学前自我调节技能在小学早期数学技能以及阅读和写作技能发展中的重要作用。特别是,自我调节的认知方面似乎与儿童的学校表现有关。讨论了早期培训措施的意义以及主要国际研究结果对德国教育系统的可移植性。

Abstract. This study looked into the associations between parents’ implicit theories of intelligence, children’s cognitive aptitude, and children’s tendency to opt for mastery-oriented responses to challenging achievement situations. All child participants ( N = 59, 31 girls; 6;3 – 7;2 years) were individually assessed for cognitive aptitude and mastery orientation, while one of their parents (46 mothers) completed a questionnaire on entity versus incremental beliefs about intelligence. Correlation analyses indicated a statistically significant negative association between parental endorsement of the incremental theory and children’s cognitive aptitude ( r = −.29), as well as between parental endorsement of the entity theory and children’s mastery orientation ( r = −.28). Moreover, two significant canonical functions emerged, one of which was defined by higher parental endorsement of the entity theory along with higher cognitive aptitude and lower mastery orientation of the child, while the second entailed higher parental endorsement of the incremental theory, lower cognitive aptitude of the child, and again, the child’s lower mastery orientation. While confirming the theoretically proposed negative association between parents’ entity beliefs and children’s mastery orientation, the present results challenge a unidimensional conception of implicit theories of intelligence and their assumed independence of cognitive aptitude; moreover, they stimulate several interpretations regarding the psychological mechanisms surrounding children’s lower mastery orientation.

Abstract. Ethnic discrimination has a negative impact on the socioemotional, behavioral, relational, and academic adjustment of adolescents, while belonging with classmates, teachers, heritage, and national group may promote positive socioemotional and academic adjustment. We investigate (1) whether greater discrimination by peers and a lower sense of belonging with classmates, teachers, heritage group, and national group are associated with lower socioemotional and academic adjustment of adolescents of immigrant descent in Germany; and (2) whether a sense of belonging with these different sources acts as a protective factor lowering the negative effects of discrimination on adjustment. Our sample included 439 7th-grade adolescents (51 % female, Mage = 12.4 years) of immigrant descent from 15 Berlin secondary schools. Results showed that higher discrimination was related to greater physiological stress, depressive symptoms, and disruptive school behavior. Higher heritage (but not national) identity, a higher sense of belonging with classmates and with teachers were associated with better socioemotional and academic adjustment. An examination of interaction effects between discrimination and forms of belonging on adjustment revealed that, while the association between discrimination and poorer adjustment weakened for those with higher heritage identity, the association between discrimination and physiological stress increased for those with higher teacher relatedness. We conclude that heritage identity (but not national identity or sense of belonging with classmates) can indeed be a protective factor against the negative effects of discrimination for adolescents of immigrant descent in Germany. Even though belonging with teachers may exacerbate discrimination effects, further investigation with longitudinal data is needed. The findings underline the important role of heritage ties among adolescents of immigrant descent as a source of adjustment, especially in light of discrimination experiences.

Abstract. The transition from primary to secondary school represents a challenging life event. This study examined 108 children (age M = 10.11 years, SD = 0.44) in Germany during the first 12 weeks at a new school. Daily satisfaction and frustration of the basic need for relatedness were examined as predictors of subjective well-being versus ill-being and adjustment versus psychopathology. Subjective well-being or ill-being was assessed at weeks 3 – 4 and week 11 of the school year. In between, there was a 4-week period of daily assessments of perceived relatedness satisfaction and frustration. Teachers indicated each child’s psychological adjustment or psychopathology (e. g., emotional symptoms) in weeks 11 – 12. Daily relatedness satisfaction was associated with increases in positive affect from weeks 3 – 4 to week 11, while daily relatedness frustration was linked to an increase in negative affect and school anxiety. Furthermore, daily relatedness satisfaction was negatively linked to teacher-reported emotional symptoms and peer problems at weeks 11 – 12, and daily relatedness frustration was positively associated with teacher-reported conduct problems and hyperactivity-inattention.

Abstract. Bullying is a serious issue among adolescents worldwide. It has been conceptualized as a type of physical or indirect peer victimization that occurs repeatedly over time and is characterized by a systematic abuse of power. Being bullied at school severely affects victims’ health and well-being. What protects students from these consequences? We investigate feelings of belonging –i. e., the feeling that one is accepted, included, respected, and valued in the respective social environment – as a possible compensator for bullying consequences across different cultures. We hypothesize that being bullied is less severe for students who have strong feelings of belonging. We use data from 319,057 15-year-old students across 47 countries. Multilevel regression analyses replicated that bullying and well-being are negatively associated. Further, the results indicated, as expected, that feelings of belonging compensate for the negative impact that bullying has on well-being. Practical implications as well as limitations are discussed.
