COVID-19-related school closures and mathematical performance—findings from a study with grade 3 students in Germany
Published in Frontiers in Education
Introduction Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, measures were taken that had a considerable impact on the situation in schools. In Germany, these measures lasted more than a year and ranged from school closures and distance learning to alternating teaching phases with small groups. In the present study, we examined whether third-grade students’ mathemat...
Comparing dropout intentions of math students on trainee teacher courses versus bachelor of science courses using intens...
Published in Frontiers in Education
In the past, high dropout rates of university math students have been recurrently observed, causing psychological and economic costs for individuals and society. In this article, we draw on prospective, intensive longitudinal data (ILD) collected at a large German university to examine the effects of stable inter-individual differences (e.g., gener...
Mathematics of biomedical imaging today—a perspective
Published in Progress in Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical imaging is a fascinating, rich and dynamic research area, which has huge importance in biomedical research and clinical practice alike. The key technology behind the processing, and automated analysis and quantification of imaging data is mathematics. Starting with the optimisation of the image acquisition and the reconstruction of an im...
Executive functions are important for academic achievement, but emotional intelligence too.
Published in Scandinavian journal of psychology
Finding predictors of academic achievement has caught the interest of many educational researchers in the last decades. Two of the variables that have received considerable attention are emotional intelligence (EI) and executive functions (EF). However, only a few studies have considered their influence in the primary school stage. The aim of this ...
Handgrip force and bite force in dentulous and edentulous individuals.
Published in Journal of oral rehabilitation
The literature is unclear about bite force (BF) and handgrip force (HF) in a specific group of different ages and dentate conditions, or even a predictive model for each specific group, using BF and HF as factors. To establish the correlation between HF and BF in female participants with distinct ages and dentate conditions; also create a predictiv...
