QUESTIONING THE RECIPROCAL EFFECTS MODEL OF ACADEMIC SELF-CONCEPT AND ACHIEVEMENT: A REANALYSIS OF A META-ANALYSIS OF LONGITUDINAL STUDIES AND A SIMULATION

Questioning the Reciprocal Effects Model of Academic Self-Concept and Achievement: A Reanalysis of a Meta-Analysis of Longitudinal Studies and a Simulation

A recent meta-analysis claimed to provide evidence that academic self-concept and achievement have reciprocal prospective effects on each other (reciprocal effects model).However, prospective effects were estimated while adjusting for a prior measurement of the outcome, and this method is susceptible to spurious findings due to correlations with re

Energy Flux Method for Wave Energy Converters

Hydrodynamic tools reveal information as to the behaviour of a device in the presence of waves but provide little information on how to improve or optimise the device.With no recent work on the transfer of power (energy flux) from a wave field through the body surface of a wave energy converter (WEC), we introduce the energy flux method to map the
