Review of Education
The mixed method involves collecting or analysing both quantitative and qualitative data simultaneously or sequentially in a single study (Creswell et al., 2003). The mixed-meta method, on the other hand, ensures that the quantitative and qualitative data obtained from document analysis are re-analysed with a holistic perspective (Batdı, 2020).
Positive behavior support in school
Background While positive school climate is important for students' well-being and mental health, school personnel may experience challenges in creating a nurturing school climate. School-Wide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (SW-PBIS) has shown positive effects on school climate and children's prosocial behaviors, but fewer studies have been conducted in a European context ...
