In this study, we are interested to see the impact of self-discipline in students’ knowledge and learning. Self-discipline can influence both learning rate as well as knowledge accumulation over time. We used Knowledge Tracing (KT) model to make inference about students’ knowledge and learning based on their performance on an Intelligent Tutoring System. Based on a widely used survey questionna...

Using three separate indicators – the probability of undertaking a consolidation, the degree to which it is sustained, and the probability o...

It remains a challenge to accurately assess the consequences of harsh discipline, as researchers and clinicians generally rely on parent report of young children's problem behaviors. If parents rate their parenting styles and their child's behavior this may bi...
