Abstract:
We analyze the subtle mechanisms at work in the interaction between families and schools that underlie social inequalities at the transition point from elementary school into secondary-school tracks in Berlin, Germany. We do so by combining quantitative data from a large-scale survey and assessment study (N = 3,935 students and their parents) with qualitative data from in-depth interviews with parents (N = 25) collected during the 2010-11, 2011-12, and 2012-13 school years. The quantitative analyses show that students from high-socioeconomic status (SES) families were more likely to enter the academic track than were students from low-SES families, even if they performed equally well on a standardized achievement test, had the same grades in school, and received the same track recommendation from their teachers. The qualitative analyses illustrate the many ways in which parents intervene during the transition process, with high-SES parents having particularly effective ways of getting what they want for their children.

Abstract:
The association between academic self-concept and achievement is assumed to be reciprocal. Typically, the association is analyzed by variants of the classical cross-lagged panel model. Results with more recently developed methodological approaches, for example, the random intercept cross-lagged panel model, its continuous-time implementation, and the latent change score model, are not available so far. The present study aimed to test the association between reading self-concept and reading achievement with different models to evaluate whether positive cross-lagged effects can be demonstrated with the alternative models. Drawing on a sample of 2,014 elementary students from Grade 1 to Grade 4, results of alternative models yielded noticeable differences. Support for reciprocal effects between reading self-concept and reading achievement was found using the classical and the full-forward cross-lagged panel models. No such effects were found in the other models. Thus, the reciprocal effect model can be called into question for elementary schoolchildren. The results are discussed with regard to the theoretical assumptions and appropriate methodological approaches. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract (english):
Research on the big-fish-little-pond effect (BFLPE) has shown that the learning environment is important for the development of academic self-concept (ASC) because students use social comparisons to evaluate their ability level. Whereas cross-sectional studies have often replicated the BFLPE, less is known about this effect from a longitudinal perspective during times when changes occur in students' learning environments. Thus, we focused on a timespan during which a student's learning environment changes - the transition from lower to upper secondary school. In upper secondary school in Germany, students leave their former classes and take either advanced or basic courses. Advanced courses are characterized by more demanding curricula and a higher achieving student body. Consequently, the compositions of the student groups change. We examined the BFLPE in the context of math self-concept (MSC) in N=1330 students during the transition from lower secondary (10th grade) to upper secondary school (12th grade) in Germany using longitudinal, large-scale data. We focused on contrast and assimilation effects as well as on the longitudinal persistence of the BFLPE from lower to upper secondary school. The BFLPE occurred at both measurement points, and there was an assimilation effect of the enrollment in advanced courses in 12th grade. The BFLPE from 10th grade did not persist into 12th grade, indicating that the BFLPE does not persist through contextual changes. Instead, information about the current frame of reference (i.e., average course achievement and course level) seems to overwrite context effects from previous learning environments, even if this change occurs within schools as constant macro-contexts.

Abstract:
What is the role of students' language background in school success within the multilingual and highly stratified education system in Luxembourg? Considering achievement differences in terms of the primary effects of social and ethnic origin, we assume that students of a disadvantaged social origin (e.g. working class), with an immigrant background, who speak languages at home other than Luxembourg's official languages show lower school achievements and are placed into lower school tracks. Analyses are based on the data of Luxembourgish primary (grades 4/5) and secondary students (grades 7/8) from two consecutive survey waves in 2016/2017 (for the international project SASAL - School Alienation in Switzerland and Luxembourg). The results indicate language background has only marginal effects, but social and immigrant origin has stronger effects. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract:
Der Fokus des Beitrags liegt auf dem Wechsel vom Gymnasium auf eine Integrierte Sekundarschule (ISS) nach der 7. Klasse (Probejahr) in Berlin. Es wurde untersucht, welche leistungsbezogenen, schulbiografischen und familiären Hintergrundmerkmale prädiktiv für das Nichtbestehen des Probejahres sind. Von Interesse war dabei insbesondere, ob beim Schulformwechsel als nachträglicher Selektion auch nach Berücksichtigung von Leistungsmerkmalen sekundäre Herkunftseffekte wirken. Die Untersuchung basiert auf Daten einer Studie, innerhalb der die Schulformwechslerpopulation (N = 754) eines Jahrganges betrachtet und den nicht gewechselten Gymnasiasten (N = 1470) gegenübergestellt wurde. Zur Vorhersage des Schulformwechsels wurden multivariate logistische Regressionsanalysen durchgeführt. Die Analysen ergaben signifikante Unterschiede zwischen beiden Gruppen in allen untersuchten Merkmalen. Die Vorhersage des Schulformwechsels zeigte, dass insbesondere leistungsbezogene Indikatoren prädiktiv waren. Nach Kontrolle der Leistungsmerkmale der 7. Klasse waren keine statistisch signifikanten Effekte der übrigen Prädiktoren und somit auch keine sekundären Effekte der sozialen Herkunft nachweisbar. (DIPF/Orig.)
Abstract (english):
This study focuses on students who change from the academic to the non-academic school track after grade 7 (probationary year) in Berlin. We examined which individual student characteristics (e. g., performance, school biography, family background) predict school change after the probationary year. We were particularly interested as to whether there are secondary effects of social background, after controlling for differences in performance. Our analyses were based on data from a study which included a whole cohort of school track changers (N = 754) who were compared with students that remained at the academic track (N = 1470). In order to predict the change of school type, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Results revealed significant differences between both groups regarding all observed characteristics. Performance-related characteristics were the best predictors of track change. After controlling for these characteristics, no further significant effects for other predictors were observable (i. e., no secondary effects of social background were present). (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract:
Der vorliegende Beitrag behandelt Platzierungsentscheidungen von Lehrkräften beim Übergang in die gymnasiale Oberstufe an nichtgymnasialen Schulen im mehr- und zweigliedrigen Berliner Schulsystem im Hinblick auf ihre Sensitivität für askriptive Merkmale wie soziale und ethnische Herkunft und das Geschlecht. Auch beim Übergang in die gymnasiale Oberstufe kovariieren soziokulturelle Merkmale und die Geschlechtszugehörigkeit mit der Wahrscheinlichkeit, eine Berechtigung zum Übergang in die gymnasiale Oberstufe zu erhalten. Bei Kontrolle des Fachleistungsniveaus und des Migrationsstatus lässt sich ein Zusammenhang zwischen Bildungsniveau der Herkunftsfamilie und dem Erwerb der Übergangsberechtigung nicht mehr nachweisen. Dies gilt jedoch nicht für den Sozial- und Migrationsstatus. Vor der Schulreform beeinflussen der Sozial- und Migrationsstatus bei wechselseitiger Kontrolle und unter Konstanthaltung von Leistungs- und lernrelevantem Schulverhalten die Erteilung einer Übergangsberechtigung in entgegengesetzter Richtung: Jugendliche mit Migrationshintergrund werden positiver, Jugendliche aus sozial schwächeren Familien negativer beurteilt. Mädchen erhalten auch unter Konstanthaltung von Leistung und Fähigkeit einen Beurteilungsbonus, der über angepasstes Schulverhalten und die Notenvergabe vermittelt wird. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract (english):
Using data from 1,571 ninth-grade students (Mage = 14.62) from 82 academic track schools in Germany and their predominantly Caucasian middle-class parents, configurations of different family characteristics reported by parents were investigated. Latent profile analyses considering academic involvement, family interest, parents' self-concept, child's need for support, and parents' time and energy identified average, indifferent, motivated and engaged, motivated and disengaged, and involved families. Cross-sectional and longitudinal associations with students' motivational (self-concept, effort, and interest) and achievement outcomes (achievement test and grades) in math were analyzed. Students from families classified as motivated and disengaged showed higher initial levels motivation and achievement. Over 5 months, these students also showed an increase in self-concept and higher achievement than students from other family types. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract:
Our newly proposed integrated academic self-concept model integrates 3 major theories of academic self-concept formation and developmental perspectives into a unified conceptual and methodological framework. Relations among math self-concept (MSC), school grades, test scores, and school-level contextual effects over 6 years, from the end of primary school through the first 5 years of secondary school (a representative sample of 3,370 German students, 42 secondary schools, 50% male, M age at grade 5 = 11.75) support the (1) internal/external frame of reference model: Math school grades had positive effects on MSC, but the effects of German grades were negative; (2) reciprocal effects (longitudinal panel) model: MSC was predictive of and predicted by math test scores and school grades; (3) big-fish-little-pond effect: The effects on MSC were negative for school-average achievement based on 4 indicators (primary school grades in math and German, school-track prior to the start of secondary school, math test scores in the first year of secondary school). Results for all 3 theoretical models were consistent across the 5 secondary school years: This supports the prediction of developmental equilibrium. This integration highlights the robustness of support over the potentially volatile early to middle adolescent period; the interconnectedness and complementarity of 3 ASC models; their counterbalancing strengths and weaknesses; and new theoretical, developmental, and substantive implications at their intersections.

Abstract:
Low arousal states (especially boredom) have been shown to be more deleterious to learning than high arousal states, though the latter have received much more attention (e.g., test anxiety, confusion, and frustration). Aiming at profiling arousal in the classroom (how active students are) and examining how activation levels relate to achievement, we studied sympathetic arousal during two runs of an elective advanced physics course in a real classroom setting, including the course exam. Participants were high school students (N = 24) who were randomly selected from the course population. Arousal was indexed from electrodermal activity, measured unobtrusively via the Empatica E4 wristband. Low arousal was the level with the highest incidence (60% of the lesson on average) and longest persistence, lasting on average three times longer than medium arousal and two times longer than high arousal level occurrences. During the course exam, arousal was positively and highly correlated (r = .66) with achievement as measured by the students' grades. Implications for a need to focus more on addressing low arousal states in learning are discussed, together with potential applications for biofeedback, teacher intervention, and instructional design.
