We investigated the relationship between process quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) and children’s socio-emotional development in a meta-analysis of longitudinal studies. Our multi-level meta-analysis of 31 publications reporting on 16 longitudinal studies (N = 17,913 children, age: …

This study addresses the role of innovation in the relationships among exploration, exploitation, ambidexterity, and performance. Through a systematic literature review and meta-analysis (including 330 studies with 1,034 correlations), we challenge the assumption that exploration, exploitation, and ambidexterity …

Developing students’ information problem solving (IPS) competence in higher education is imperative. However, existing theoretical frameworks describe IPS learning outcomes without guiding effective learning environment design. This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesized empirical evidence to …

Research Findings: A growing number of stakeholders in early childhood education (ECE) rely on self-assessment to assess and improve the quality of ECE. In this systematic review, we investigated the reliability and validity of self-assessment in ECE, summarizing findings from 27 publications. We meta-analytically …

Background: Introduction: Physical activity is essential in preventing and treating age-related chronic diseases and mortality. Retirement is a key period to promote health behaviours, as individuals restructure their routines. Thus, we aimed to identify effective components and behaviour change techniques …

Background Exercise-induced fatigue is a common consequence of physical activities. Particularly in older adults, it can affect gait performance. Due to a wide variety in fatiguing protocols and gait parameters used in experimental settings, pooled effects are not yet clear. Furthermore, specific elements …

Background: Social frailty has been increasingly prevalent due to the aging populations. This concept is a rela tively new topic in the gerontology. Older adults experiencing social isolation because of social frailty remain in a state of loneliness or depression. Many misconceptions exist regarding …
