TL;DR: For many students with disabilities, the transition from high school to a postsecondary educational institution can be challenging as they navigate a new environment with new or different supports as discussed by the authors, which can be especially difficult for those with disabilities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined how SSS-academic, Sss-interpersonal, and their congruency relate to adolescent psychological health, and the moderating effect of core self-evaluations (CSE).
Abstract: Disalignments among dimensions of adolescent subjective social status (SSS) may be influential to psychological health. How an individual responds to this incongruence may be explained by personality traits. Drawing upon the conceptualization of SSS and self-concept dimensions, the current study examined how SSS-academic, SSS-interpersonal, and their congruency relate to adolescent psychological health, and the moderating effect of core self-evaluations (CSE). Data (N = 387) were collected in two waves with a three-week interval in a senior high school. Results from the moderated polynomial regression analysis suggested that when CSE was at high levels, there was a significant incongruence effect----the greater the academic-interpersonal discrepancy was, the worse psychological health was reported----and SSS-interpersonal was a stronger predictor of psychological health than SSS-academic. For adolescents with low CSE levels, as long as one dimension of SSS was high, psychological health was better than when both dimensions were low. Examining how congruency of SSS dimensions influences psychological health may shed light on how internal inconsonance within self-concept relates to adolescent adjustment, especially when personality traits are taken into account.

TL;DR: In this article, a correlational study was conducted to identify linkages of performance with individual's efforts to improve their learning processes via metacognition, and to provide detailed information regarding performance measures and practical measures of metACognition.
Abstract: In this exploratory, correlational study the authors set out to demonstrate the relationships as well as inter-correlations among direct and indirect performance measures, along with measures of knowledge of cognition, and evaluation of cognition. The information helps inform manager learning and development. The purpose of this paper is twofold: first, primary purpose, to identify linkages of performance with individual’s efforts to improve their learning processes via metacognition; and second, secondary purpose, primarily for the benefit of practitioners, is the provision of detailed information regarding performance measures and practical measures of metacognition.,The study made use of correlation analysis among performance measures and measures of metacognitive effort. The design is not intended to support cause and effect relationships, nor demonstrate the technical, predictive value of measures.,A majority of associations among indirect performance measures with one another and with nearly all of the measures of knowledge of cognition, and evaluation of cognition were positive and significant (mostly at the 0.01 level). Findings offer broad support for the linkage of self-efficacy (SE), and core self-evaluation (CSE) with performance.,Relationships identified in this study may help practitioners alter and improve their practices/methods of identifying individuals who possess attributes that are highly related to performance and learning. The new knowledge may influence decisions about recruitment, selection and training.,Little research has focused on relationships among indirect performance indicators such as SE, CSE and established measures of metacognition. The present study helps to identify important relationships.

TL;DR: This paper examined whether women and men differ in their levels of job satisfaction, the levels of benefits they derive from working in the House, and the relationship between specific benefits and job satisfaction.
Abstract: This paper examines whether congresswomen and congressmen differ in their levels of job satisfaction, the levels of benefits they derive from working in the House, and the relationship between specific benefits and job satisfaction. By relying on a survey of former members of Congress, the paper finds only modest gender differences in the level of job satisfaction and members' perceptions of obtaining specific benefits from the job, but significant gender differences in the sources of job satisfaction. Most specifically, congresswomen's job satisfaction was most greatly influenced by whether their families benefited from the job whereas family benefits had only a modest effect on men's job satisfaction. Conversely, congressmen's satisfaction was more strongly related to their perceptions of the financial benefits to House service than was congresswomen's satisfaction.
