This study investigated the relationships and mean-level changes of middle school students’ motivation (expectancy-related beliefs, task values, self-efficacy, and outcome expectancy) toward physical education over time, and how gender affected students’ motivation. Participants (N = 206) completed questionnaires over a 1-year period: once in the sixth and seventh grades and again in the seventh and eighth grades. Results yielded that self-efficacy and task values were positive predictors of students’ intention across cohorts. The mean levels of self-efficacy decreased over time for students in Cohort 1 (across sixth and seventh grades). However, results revealed a consistent decline in the mean levels of other motivational variables for both cohorts. No gender differences emerged for the variables. The findings are discussed in regard to the implications for educational practice, and future research areas are presented.

The editorial panel is pleased to (welcome readers to volume 3 of Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School. Good things come in threes, and the journal is no exception. Three noteworthy events will characterize volume 3. The first is a special March-April 1998 issue with a focus on geometry. We chose this topic because it has traditionally been an area of poor performance by middle school students, as indicated by the results of the National Assessment of Educational Progress and the Third International Mathematics and Science Study. Yet geometry has the potential for creating exciting opportunities for “doing” mathematics in the middle school classroom. Further, with the increased availability of technology-based geometry tools, students' experiences with the topic can be enhanced through dynamic aud sophisticated investigations.

This study aimed to develop a scale to determine students’ perceptions of teacher involvement in mathematics homework assignments. An item pool (n = 30) was generated based on a literature review. Based on expert feedback, the number of items was reduced to 21 scored on a 5-point Likert-type scale. A draft named the “Scale of Teacher Involvement in Mathematics Homework Assignments (STIMHA)” was developed after the items were reviewed by a linguist. A pilot study was conducted with six middle school students to check for comprehensibility. The items were revised and finalized based on their feedback. The main study sample consisted of 751 middle school students from four schools in Demirci/Manisa in Turkey during the 2017-2018 academic year. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 24.0) and Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS 21.0). Validity and reliability were established.

The problem of inferiority general phenomenon affects all members of society, and looks manifestations in poor self and low self-esteem and shyness confidence. When the evolution of this situation and left without treatment, the individual infected with so-called (inferiority complex) where the individual resorts to fill the gap has the means and methods of abnormal addictions such as theft and assault. So Turn current research to measure (an inferiority complex among middle school students) and then recognize the significance of differences in feelings of inferiority according to the type variable (male, female) for second grade average in the city of Baghdad to the Directorate of Education Karkh / 2 for the academic year (2015/2016) totaling (19 251) by (10 776) males and (8475) females To achieve these goals, the researcher used measure of inferiority prepared Ayed (2005) and after the application of the scale on all members of society and analyze responses and calculate grades and statistically analyzed for the first goal researcher found warmer feelings of inferiority compared to the theoretical average scale at level (0.05). Either with respect to the second goal researcher he has found significant differences in the sense of inferiority in favor of females at level (0.05). Current search has been agreed with the results of the study as a result of Ayed (2005), which indicated that females are more a sense of inferiority male

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of middle school students’ learning attitudes and risk perception toward COVID-19 on their poor academic performance since the COVID-19 pandemic began. This study limited the sample to middle school students who responded that their academic performance was an A or B grade during the last academic year in 2019. For this study, 268 respondents were selected and logistic regression was employed. Self-motivated studying time and positive attitudes toward online learning predicted consistent academic performance since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Middle school students’ preference toward an in-person classroom format was related to poor academic performance since the COVID-19 pandemic began. A risk perception toward COVID-19 was related to poor academic performance since the COVID-19 pandemic began. It is imperative to provide educational programs which help students develop self-motivated studying habits to maintain their academic performance during COVID-19. Policymakers in schools should consider providing in-person options for students who are more academically successful in such an environment.

ABSTRACT Introduction Malocclusion is the most common dental anomaly among children and adolescents. Accordingly, this study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of major types of occlusal anomalies in permanent dentition among Saudi Arabian middle school adolescent students seeking orthodontic treatment in Jeddah. Materials and methods The sample comprised 150 males and 150 females with mean age of 14.25 (±1.09) for both males and females. Data were registered using the Bjork method. Results The results of the study showed that postnormal occlusion, prenormal occlusion, and bimaxillary protrusion represented 22, 14.7, and 8.3% of the studied sample respectively. Moderate and severe overjet accounted for 24.7 and 5.7% and for overbite 28 and 13% respectively. Midline deviation was detected in 25.3% of the sample. Mild, moderate, and severe maxillary and mandibular crowding represented 10, 27.3, and 10% and 13, 40, and 9.7% respectively. Conclusion The prevalence of occlusal anomalies was 90% and some occlusal anomalies were higher in females. Clinical significance The prevalence of occlusal anomalies in Saudi Arabian middle school students necessitates the demand for obtaining baseline data for planning orthodontic services.
