It was highlighted that the luxury market can have a future in a post-
growth society and position itself accordingly. However, the experts interviewed are unanimous in their opinion that the luxury market must change in its current form. The present study has already been able to outline initial indications of necessary changes. However, further research is needed for a complete analysis. It should also be noted that representative results might not emerge until the societal transformation to a post-growth society is more advanced; for currently, the concept of a post-growth society is seen as a vision of the future that is emerging, but the extent of which is very limited and not foreseeable in its fullness. For companies in the luxury industry, it is nevertheless essential to address the question of how they need to change in detail in order to remain competitive in the face of continuing developments in the direction of a post-growth society. To this end, corporate processes and economic conditions must be analyzed and restructured.

Does the Emotional Stance of Human and Virtual Instructors in
Instructional Videos Affect Learning Processes and Outcomes?
In the present study, we examine the idea that the emotional stance of the
instructor during teaching can affect the way that students process the lesson and the quality of their learning outcomes. In particular, we examine the idea that students’ learning processes and outcomes are improved when their instructor exhibits positive emotion in delivering a lecture, as reflected in positive emotional cues in the instructor’s voice, gestures, facial expression, eye contact, and body movements. In short, we are interested in whether the emotional style of the instructor is an important ingredient in the teaching and learning.
Given the popularity of instructional video, we contextualize our study
using instructional videos of an instructor – either a human or an animated character – standing next to a series of slides as she lectures. Instructional video has become a popular medium for delivering instruction, both in formal venues such as online, blended, or flipped classrooms and in informal venues such as Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), YouTube, or other online learning platforms. Although instructional films date back to the early 1900s, they had surprisingly little lasting impact on education during the 20th century (Cuban, 1986, Orgeron et al., 2012). In contrast, the 21st century has seen an increase in the popularity of instructional video, which may be attributed to advances in communication and video technology and the demands of remote learning.
122
The goal of the present study is to examine techniques for improving the
emotional – ________ learning – ________ instructional – ________
remote – ________ virtual – ________
effectiveness of video lectures in which an instructor stands next to a series of slides as she lectures, such as exemplified in Fig. 1. Although researchers have discovered several evidence-based principles for how to design effective instructional video lectures, there has been less research on how students respond to the emotional stance of human and virtual instructors. Virtual instructors are onscreen animated, human-like agents, sometimes referred to as animated pedagogical agents.
In line with increasing interest in the role of emotion in academic
learning, we seek to expand the scope of inquiry to include the effects of human and virtual instructors’ positive or negative emotional stance. We draw on Russell, 1980, Russell, 2003 model of core affect, which distinguishes between positive and negative emotions as well as active and passive emotions. In our study we focus on an active positive emotion (e.g., happy) and a passive positive emotion (e.g., content) as the positive emotions displayed by our onscreen human and virtual instructors through voice and gesture, and we focus on an active negative emotion (e.g., frustrated) and a passive negative emotion (e.g., bored) as the negative emotions displayed by our human and virtual instructors.

Classroom Environment Predicts Changes
in Expressed Intellectual Humility
(1)Schools seek to cultivate many competencies that promote success
inside and outside of the classroom. In the last decade, intellectual humility– awareness and acknowledgement of one’s ignorance and intellectual fallibility–has emerged as a predictor of learning, critical thinking, and effective collaboration. Nonetheless, little is known about why some students exhibit intellectual humility more than others or how school environments might promote it. In the current study of over 500 middle school students, we examined the potential role that mastery-oriented teaching practices and perceived classroom goal structure might play in the development of expressed intellectual humility.
(2)Intellectual humility is conceptualized as recognition and expressed
awareness of one’s ignorance and fallibility, and recognition and expressed appreciation for others’ intellect (Porter et al., 2021). The cognitive features of intellectual humility include attitudes and beliefs about one’s intellectual fallibility and others’ intellectual strengths; the expressed features comprise
124
observable behavioral manifestations including admitting ignorance, owning up to mistakes, and seeking help to learn rather than remain in ignorance (Meagher et al., 2021, Porter et al., 2021, Whitcomb et al., 2017). Intellectual humility (often measured as a mix of cognitive and expressed features) is empirically distinct from cognitive ability and may help compensate for lower IQ by increasing cognitive flexibility and remediation (Owens et al., 2013, Zmigrod et al., 2019).
(3)Intellectual humility has several noteworthy motivational and
behavioral correlates. Motivationally, intellectually humbler individuals tend to have higher need for cognition (Leary et al., 2017) and to believe that their intelligence is malleable rather than fixed. Intellectually humbler individuals also tend to endorse mastery-approach achievement goals (strivings to understand) rather than performance goals (strivings to look smart; Krumrei­Mancuso et al., 2019). Behaviorally, adults and adolescents higher in intellectual humility tend to persist more through difficulty and show greater resilience following failure even after accounting for growth mindset and ability (Porter et al., 2020). Intellectually humble adults are also more thorough, open-minded, and conscientious information-seekers (Bowes et al., 2021, Koetke et al., 2021).
(4)Though related to other constructs, intellectual humility is theoretically
and empirically distinct. Conceptually, intellectual humility belongs to a family of dispositions including open-mindedness and curiosity that characterize “good thinker[s] and learner[s]”. Intellectual humility is unique in its emphasis on recognizing and acknowledging one’s intellectual limitations. By contrast, curiosity can be defined as the overall drive to know more (Clark et al., 2019) and open-mindedness as the fair consideration of contrary views (Baehr, 2011). Intellectual humility is correlated with both of these and other facets of intellectual character in the range of r = 0.40 to 0.56.

humility. In: Tenelle Porter a, Diego Catalán et al. Contemporary Educational Psychology. 2022. Volume 70. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cedpsych.2022.102081
1. Scan the text to find these ideas. Write the paragraph number on the line.
a) In terms of behavior, those who have higher levels of intellectual
humility tend to persevere through challenges and to be more resilient after failing.
b) Intellectual humility, or the recognition and admission of one’s ignorance
and intellectual fallibility, has recently become recognized as a predictor of learning, critical thinking, and successful teamwork.
c) In general, curiosity is the interest leading to enquiry, the desire to learn
more.
125
d) Intellectual humility is experimentally separate from cognitive ability
and might increase cognitive flexibility and rehabilitation to make up for lower IQ.
2. Choose the correct word or phrase.
a) It’s an excellent indicator of how much you exercise, and is used as a
diagnostic tool and even a predictor / fallibility of future health.
b) The cognitive highlights of intellectual / intelligent humility incorporate
states of mind and convictions about one’s intellectual fallibility and others’ intellectual strengths.
c) The newspaper has endowed / endorsed the conservative candidate for
mayor.
d) Their research has revealed the fungus’s reliance / resilience: it needs
moisture to grow, flourishing when the rains arrive, then stagnating when the ground dries up again.
e) The arrival of a construction crew at their house attracted the curiosity /
correlation of their neighbors.

Parent–Child Conflict during Homeschooling in Times of the COVID-
19 Pandemic: a Key Role for Mothers’ Self-Efficacy in Teaching
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to temporary school closures in many
countries around the world. As a result, hundreds of millions of children were forced to do their schoolwork at home for weeks in a row (Unesco,
2021). During this period, parents often had to assist their children with their
schoolwork. This role as a part-time teacher put extra demands on parents, posing a number of additional problems for them. Due to stress or a lack of support some parents might have felt less able to teach their child at home. Furthermore, parents might have experienced difficulties regulating the behavioral problems and negative emotions of their child that can occur during their help with schoolwork. In the present study, we examined parent factors (i.e., parents’ level of education and amount of stress) and social contextual factors (e.g., household chaos and school support) that may have contributed to parents’ sense of efficacy in teaching young children during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the extent to which these parental self­efficacy beliefs in teaching in turn contributed to parent–child conflict around schoolwork.
Parents’ home-based involvement with schoolwork, including practices
such as creating a quiet and orderly place to study, talking about school­related issues, and helping children in completing their homework, is nowadays increasingly considered a relevant yet controversial factor in affecting children’s school adjustment. Not only is parents’ assistance with schoolwork the most frequent form of involvement, it can also be viewed as the central activity in which the home and school environment intersect most closely and in which most school-related interactions are exchanged. As such, the atmosphere that parents create around their children’s schoolwork may provide plenty opportunities to either enhance or hamper children’s motivational and academic development.
One factor that may influence how parents act and behave toward their
child during school-related activities is their parental self-efficacy in teaching (Bandura, 1997). Generally, parental self-efficacy reflects parents’ beliefs about their ability to parent children successfully–to guide and support children such that it optimizes their development. From the moment their children enter formal schooling, however, parents’ role as a caregiver naturally broadens to include school-related responsibilities as well. Conceivably, such responsibilities also come with specific expectations of efficacy to adequately assist with schoolwork (cf. Bandura, 1997). This may have been especially true during the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced many parents to assist their children with schoolwork for weeks in a row.
127
To date, no formal definition of parents’ self-efficacy in teaching in the
pose – ________ experience – ________ examine – ________
complete – ________ provide – ________
context of homeschooling exists. Conceivably, though, there may be broad similarities between teachers’ and parents’ roles during the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of cognitive (e.g., providing alternative explanations when children do not understand the task at hand) and affective supports (e.g., helping children to value learning and providing a safe and secure learning environment).

Coping Profiles among Teachers: Implications for Emotions,
Job Satisfaction, Burnout, and Quitting Intentions
Teaching is arguably a stressful occupation that poses numerous
challenges to instructors on a daily basis including the effective use of varied pedagogical techniques, promoting student engagement, and managing difficult classroom behaviors (...). Teachers also inevitably experience stressful events and negative emotions during class, such as anxiety or anger (Frenzel, 2014), requiring the use of coping strategies to maintain their personal well-being and teaching quality (...). Whereas adaptive coping strategies consistently lead to more positive emotions, better psychological well-being, and lower attrition intentions (...), maladaptive coping tends to give rise to negative emotions, greater stress, and greater mental health challenges (MacIntyre et al., 2020).
Most prior studies on teachers’ coping strategies have used variable-
centered approaches that focus on how a given type or category of coping strategies correspond with emotional, motivational, and behavioral adjustment outcomes (e.g., Chang, 2013). However, these studies do not account for teachers’ simultaneous use of multiple coping strategies nor the possibility of subpopulations of teachers who use distinct combinations of coping strategies and, hence, exhibit different patterns of occupational well­being outcomes. More recently, researchers have started to adopt a person­centered approach to study how teachers use various coping strategies simultaneously. Such studies are important as they provide essential knowledge to researchers and school practitioners to better understand how different combinations of coping strategies among teachers correspond with critical professional outcomes (e.g., psychological well-being, teacher turnover). Informed by Lazarus, 1991, Tobin et al., 1989 frameworks and
129
classifications of coping strategies, the current study explored the structure
On a ___ basis _____strategy _____approach
_____knowledge _____well-being _____exhaustion
and outcomes of teachers’ coping strategies by adopting a person-centered approach (Marsh et al., 2009) and investigating potential differences between teachers’ coping profiles in their positive and negative emotions, job satisfaction, emotional exhaustion, and quitting intentions.
Results from the current study suggest that teachers do indeed exhibit
distinct patterns of coping strategies. The results further suggest that three main profiles (addressing Research Question 1) of teachers’ coping strategies can be differentiated, with each differing from the other in their magnitude of both engagement coping (problem-focused and emotion­focused) and disengagement coping (problem-focused and emotion-focused; addressing Research Question 2). Moreover, the present findings indicate that these profiles correspond to significant differences on critical indicators of not only teaching-related emotions, but also psychological well-being and quitting intentions.
