Identification Environment, School Identification and School Burnout: Multilevel Models
1 Introduction The central tenet of the social identity approach (SIA) to health is that groups play an important role in individuals’ well-being (Haslam et al. 2018).

Developing and validating an abbreviated adult reading history questionnaire in the Finnish and Dutch contexts
Dyslexia is a neurodevelopmental disability characterised by persistent difficulties with reading fluency, accuracy and spelling that occur independently of sensory abilities or intelligence (Peterson & Pennington, 2012). Adult dyslexia is mainly identified with questionnaires and direct reading and cognitive assessments. Questionnaires, in particular, are of special interest to researchers because they are quicker and less expensive in identifying reading difficulties than direct assessments.

Online Research and Comprehension Performance Profiles
Abstract This study identified online research and comprehension (ORC) performance profiles of 436 sixth-grade students (206 girls) aged 12–13 years. We included learner groups with different learning-related difficulties and explored how students’ reading habits were represented in various performance profiles.
