Chris Paulse writes, “By accident I [Chris] discovered a book that has part of its focus on educational psychology. It’s called Handbook of Competence and Motivation, Elliott and Dweck eds. A few recent articles have appeared in the NYT that seem to be sourced from material like this (one on self-regulation profiling the work of Roy Baumesiter, and another on learning from mistakes that quotes Carol Dweck). The Dweck chapter on self-concept is a fun read. I’d love to see a mixture model developed from survey data for the evaluation anxiety idea. Great for teachers.”
