Abstract: This article examines the extent to which normative beliefs on acculturation constitute (a) individual resources and risk factors for adolescents facing developmental tasks and (b) institutional norms that define developmental milieus in secondary schools. To what extent do egalitarianism, multiculturalism, assimilationism, and segregationism help or hinder academic and psychosocial adjustment in mid-adolescence? We examined how both individually endorsed beliefs and socially shared beliefs at the 10th-grade cohort level relate to students' academic performance, educational and occupational aspirations, motivational and emotional attachment to school, self-esteem, and life satisfaction. Data came from a random sample of 15- to 17-year-olds in Berlin, Germany, assessed at the end of Grades 9 and 10 (N = 1,992). Multivariate analyses identified egalitarianism and multiculturalism as the most prevalent acculturation beliefs, forming a combined belief pattern that pairs recognition of equality with respect for diversity. At the individual level, this belief pattern was positively related to academic and psychosocial adjustment. Assimilationism beliefs were associated with higher motivational and emotional attachment to school in both minority and majority students. Segregationism beliefs were associated with higher self-esteem in all adolescents regardless of background, but with lower levels of academic performance in immigrant youth. At the grade cohort level, a single bipolar factor (egalitarianism/multiculturalism vs. assimilationism/segregationism) described the institutional diversity culture. An environment characterized by egalitarianism/multiculturalism beliefs was positively associated with motivational and emotional attachment to school but not related to academic adjustment or psychological well-being.

Title: Zum Zusammenspiel von Selbstwert, sozialer Herkunft und kognitiven Fähigkeiten für die Vorhersage von Bildungs- und Berufserfolg im Erwachsenenalter

Abstract: Eine der zentralen Fragen sozialwissenschaftlicher Forschung ist die Vorhersage sozioökonomischen Erfolges im Erwachsenenalter. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Bedeutung des Selbstwertes und dessen Zusammenspiel mit sozialer Herkunft und kognitiven Grundfähigkeiten im frühen Jugendalter für die Vorhersage des Bildungs- und beruflichen Erfolges. Spezifisch wird geprüft, ob die Faktoren interagieren und vor allem Selbstwert kompensatorisch oder verstärkend auf existierende (soziale) Herkunftsunterschiede wirkt. Dies wurde mit der längsschnittlichen Studie Bildungsverläufe und psychosoziale Entwicklung im Jugendalter und jungen Erwachsenenalter (BIJU) mit den Entwicklungen von der 7. Klasse bis ins Alter von knapp 31 Jahren untersucht. Es ließen sich Hinweise auf einen positiven Interaktionseffekt zwischen Selbstwert und sozioökonomischem Hintergrund für die Vorhersage des Bildungserfolges identifizieren. Dieser Interaktionseffekt konnte jedoch auch mit einer Interaktion zwischen sozioökonomischem Hintergrund und kognitiven Grundfähigkeiten erklärt werden. Im Hinblick auf Berufsstatus und Arbeitseinkommen deuteten sich keine Haupt- und Interaktionseffekte des Selbstwerts an. Zusammenfassend fanden sich zumindest für den Bildungserfolg im Erwachsenenalter Indizien für kumulative Vorteile aufgrund vorangehender (sozialer) Unterschiede (Matthäuseffekte). Diese waren jedoch nicht spezifisch für Selbstwert, sondern auch durch kognitive Ressourcen erklärbar. Es fanden sich keine Hinweise auf kompensatorische Effekte zwischen vorangehenden Ressourcenunterschieden. (DIPF/Orig.)
Abstract (english): One of the central questions in social science research is what predicts socioeconomic success in adulthood. This article investigates the role of self-esteem and its interplay with social background and intelligence in early adolescence in predicting educational attainment and occupational success in adulthood. Specifically, the present study tests for interactions between these factors and examines whether self-esteem, in particular, has a compensatory or amplifying effect on existing (social) background differences. To this end, it draws on data from the longitudinal study Learning Processes, Educational Careers, and Psychosocial Development in Adolescence and Young Adulthood (BIJU), tracking development from the age of 12 to 31 years. The results indicate a positive interaction effect between self-esteem and socioeconomic background in predicting educational attainment. However, this interaction effect was similarly explained by an interaction between socioeconomic background and intelligence. There were no main or interaction effects of self-esteem on occupational status or income. In sum, at least for educational attainment in adulthood, the results point to cumulative advantages of baseline (social) differences (Matthew effects). These were not specific to self-esteem, however, but were also explained by cognitive resources. No evidence was found for compensatory effects between baseline differences in resources. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract: Whether exclusion hurts or inclusion feels good is debated within social psychology, and research designs often compare people who are excluded from those who are included. Here, we examined how participants differ when they are excluded or included relative to when they are not engaging in social interactions. Participants completed an ecological momentary assessment study (7 days, six measures a day). Participants indicated if they were having a social interaction, whether the interaction was inclusionary or exclusionary, and their mood and basic needs. We found that when people were excluded, relative to no interaction, they had lower basic needs and worsened mood; the reverse was true during inclusion episodes. We also found that the within-person effect of exclusion was larger than the within-person effect of inclusion and that exclusion experiences were relatively uncommon (≈10% of all reported social interactions). Future research and the importance of examining within-person effects are discussed. (DIPF/Orig.)

Title: Evaluating sociometer theory in children's everyday lives. Inclusion, but not exclusion by peers at school is related to within-day change in self-esteem

Abstract: Sociometer theory proposes that a person's self-esteem is a permanent monitor of perceived social inclusion and exclusion in a given situation. Despite this within-person perspective, respective research in children's everyday lives is lacking. In three intensive longitudinal studies, we examined whether children's self-esteem was associated with social inclusion and exclusion by peers at school. Based on sociometer theory, we expected social inclusion to positively predict self-esteem and social exclusion to negatively predict self-esteem on within- and between-person levels. Children aged 9-12 years reported state self-esteem twice per day (morning and evening) and social inclusion and exclusion once per day for two (Study 1) and four weeks (Studies 2-3). Consistently across studies, we found that social inclusion positively predicted evening self-esteem on within- and between-person levels. By contrast, social exclusion was not associated with evening self-esteem on the within-person level. On the between-person level, social exclusion was negatively linked to evening self-esteem only in Study 1. Multilevel latent change score models revealed that children's self-esteem changed from mornings (before school) to evenings (after school) depending on their perceived daily social inclusion, but not exclusion. The findings are discussed in light of sociometer theory and the bad-is-stronger-than-good phenomenon.

Title: The challenges of test translation

Abstract: Test translation can easily go wrong. Just to give a few examples: In one PISA study the term 'space suit' was rendered as 'special suit' in the Spanish version and the item had to be dropped; in another higher-education study, the translated rubric talks about a 'goal scorer' instead of 'scorer', and in a school test 'early agrarian society' was rendered 'a society with agrarian industry'. These errors were detected before the tests were actually conducted as a result of translation quality control checks.³ These examples show how important it is to have professionals do the translations, using rigorous methodologies. While these examples may lead some to believe that it would be easier to simply write the tests in the language of the respondents with no translation involved, this is not an option for international tests or surveys, particularly in many countries that have more than one national language. [...]
The goal of this article is to illustrate the challenges of test translation and to describe some of the measures that have been implemented to deal with these challenges. We will first explain what international large-scale assessment studies (iLSA) are: We will give a brief outline of their history; describe their contents, goals and their political impact. Next, we will use an actual test item from the PIAAC study as an example to illustrate which questions and difficulties come up when test items are translated. We will then describe the strategies that have been developed to deal with these translation challenges. Here we will mostly draw on strategies for the PISA- and PIAAC-tests. In the final section, we will discuss the remaining challenges, with a focus on the role of language in diverse societies. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract (english): As the field of social and emotional learning has developed and grown over the last decades, so too has the number of different programmes seek-ing to achieve various SEL goals, resulting in a significant body of research on the topic. Meanwhile, there has also been an increase in the number of programmes aimed at developing intercultural competencies. For the pur-pose of developing a new programme for social and emotional learning, we reviewed the key characteristics of existing evidence-based social, emo-tional and intercultural learning programmes, including their theoretical and conceptual backgrounds, content, methodological and organisation-al aspects, and their evaluation. This review has revealed multiple similar-ities between these two approaches (i.e. social and emotional and intercul-tural), presenting a rationale for their integration. (DIPF/Orig.)

Title: The bright and the dark side of peer relationships. Differential effects of relatedness satisfaction and frustration at school on affective well-being in children's daily lives

Abstract (english): Satisfaction and frustration of the basic psychological need for relatedness have been postulated to play a vital role for affective well-being. Yet, this prediction has not been thoroughly tested in school children's everyday lives. In this work, we examined the association between relatedness satisfaction and frustration at school on daily and average positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA) using ambulatory assessment in three intensive longitudinal studies with children aged 9-12 (total N = 317). In Study 1, fourth to sixth graders reported their PA and NA two times daily and their relatedness satisfaction and frustration once a day for two weeks. In Study 2 (Study 3), fourth graders (fifth graders) reported their PA and NA four times daily and their relatedness satisfaction and frustration once a day for four weeks. Across the three studies, relatedness satisfaction and frustration were psychometrically separable and exhibited differential effects such that relatedness satisfaction was significantly associated primarily with PA, and relatedness frustration was significantly associated only with NA at between- and within-person levels. Explaining inter-individual differences suggested that the association between daily relatedness and affective well-being was weaker for generally highly integrated children and stronger for usually rather excluded children.

Abstract: [Correction Notice: An Erratum for this article was reported online in Journal of Personality and Social Psychology on Apr 4 2019 (see record 2019-18472-001). In the article, the stability model is referred to incorrectly as trait-state error model in the abstract, twice in the main body of the article, and in the Table 2 Note. Corrected versions of the fourth sentence in the abstract, the first sentence of the Analysis Outline section, and the first sentence of the Table 2 Note are provided in the erratum. The Kenny & Zautra (1995) reference has been deleted from the text and References list, and Steyer & Schmitt (1994) was added to the text and References list. All versions of this article have been corrected.] The existence of links between personality traits, values, and well-being and self-esteem is well established, but the nature and direction of these links have been less clearly understood. This study examines longitudinally the stability of traits and values, their mutual effects, and their effects on affective and cognitive well-being and self-esteem. We analyzed data from a nationally representative panel in The Netherlands, spanning 5 time points spread across 8 years (n = 5,159 to 7,021 per time point, total N = 11,890). We estimated latent state-trait models with autoregression and random-intercepts cross-lagged panel models to account for the trait-like, time-invariant stability of the constructs. Traits were more stable than values. The bidirectional effects tended to be significant, but could be distinguished by their relative size. Traits predicted values more strongly than they were predicted by values, and generally predicted well-being and self-esteem more strongly than values did. Traits predicted broad well-being (especially its affective aspects) more strongly than they were predicted by it; values, by contrast, were predicted by well-being (especially its cognitive aspects and self-esteem) more strongly than they predicted it. The findings highlight the central role of traits for personality functioning, while also supporting the mutual constitution of traits and other personality concepts. The results are discussed in the framework of different theoretical approaches to the composition of the broader personality system. (DIPF/Orig.)

Abstract: Partizipation ist für das Aufwachsen von Jugendlichen bedeutsam und wird auch im Kontext von Ganztagsschule diskutiert. Bisher vorliegende Studien betrachten Partizipationsmöglichkeiten in der Ganztagsschule vornehmlich deskriptiv und vergleichen Unterricht und Ganztagsangebote. Inwiefern diese Vergleiche in methodischer Hinsicht zulässig sind, wird außer Acht gelassen. Ebenso bleibt unbeachtet, wovon Partizipationsmöglichkeiten abhängen genauso wie Effekte von Partizipation auf die Entwicklung von Kindern und Jugendlichen. Mit Daten eines Teilprojekts der Studie zur Entwicklung von Ganztagsschulen (StEG-S) bei dem 2105 Fünftklässler*innen zu ihren Partizipationserfahrungen befragt wurden, sollen diese offenen Forschungsfragen beantwortet werden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass in methodischer Hinsicht ein Vergleich zwischen Unterricht und Ganztagsangeboten zulässig ist, hier jedoch keine Unterschiede bestehen. Nehmen Schüler*innen freiwillig an Ganztagsangeboten teil, bewerteten sie die Partizipationsmöglichkeiten höher. Zudem beeinflussten Partizipationsmöglichkeiten in Unterricht und Ganztagsangeboten die Entwicklung des Selbstwertgefühls sowie der sozialen Selbstwirksamkeit. (DIPF/Orig.)
Abstract (english): Providing opportunities for participation is highly relevant during adolescence and is also being discussed in the context of all-day-schools. Previous studies of the opportunities enabling students to participate in all-day-schools were primarily descriptive and often compared compulsory instruction with extra-curricular activities. However, the question of whether these comparisons are methodologically admissible has been disregarded. Moreover, there is a lack of research on the antecedents of participation and on the effects of participation on adolescents' development. The current study addresses these research gaps by using data from a subproject of the study on the development of all-day-schools (StEG), in which 2105 fifth grade students were asked about their experiences on participation at school. Results show that a comparison of participation between compulsory instruction and extra-curricular activities is methodologically permissible, but there were no differences. Voluntary participation in extra-curricular activities correlated positively with students' ratings of the opportunities to participate. In turn, students' ratings of the opportunities to participate in compulsory instruction and extra-curricular activities correlated positively with changes in students' perceived self-worth and social self-efficacy.
