International student agency in academic self‐formation: Mobility as agency situated within knowledge structures

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract With growing attention to student agency in academic and policy discourse, international education has become a prominent context for examining how students navigate new cultural, academic, linguistic and social environments. However, much of this discussion attributes student agency to the ‘international’ aspect, while overlooking the ...

Growth mindset is positively associated with mathematics attainment in Scotland—But socioeconomic status plays a greater role

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract There is currently a gap in knowledge around pupils' growth mindset (GM) and attainment in Scotland, particularly in relation to Socioeconomic Status (SES). This study offers insights on the relevance of growth mindset in Scotland for attainment in mathematics by drawing on large‐scale data from the OECD's Programme for International Student ...

Two Kantorovich-type inequalities and efficiency comparisons between the OLSE and BLUE

Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2002
We first establish two matrix-determinant Kantorovich-type inequalities. Then we introduce two efficiency criteria and make efficiency comparisons between the ordinary least squares estimator and best linear unbiased estimator in linear models.

Socioeconomic status, parenting factors and academic achievement among Chinese adolescents aged 12–13: How do they relate?

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Extensive research has shown that students from higher socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds generally outperform their lower SES peers. Nevertheless, some low SES students succeed, albeit it ‘against the odds.’ Coleman's (1988) theory of social capital in the family suggests that financial capital, human capital and social capital all affect
