“…It indicated that COVID-19 might have a more significant impact on family function during “stay-at-home” time. Angelica Moè et al ( Moè and Putwain, 2020 ) reported that females might be more easily affected by external cause than males. We could quickly find the results from measurement invariance that family function on state anxiety differed across gender.…”

The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) may affect mental health. There is little research about the influence of family function on the state anxiety of college students in the context of the global pandemic. The study aimed to clarify that generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and trait anxiety had mediating effects in family function on the state anxiety of Chinese college students following the “stay-at-home” order during the outbreak of COVID-19. This cross-sectional study was conducted online with 1,039 respondents. We analyzed demographics, The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (ST-AI) and Chinese Family Function Scale (FAD-18), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), and used path analysis to discuss the influence of family function on state and trait anxiety. The results showed that female students’ state and trait anxiety was higher than that of male students (P < 0.05). Medical students’ state and trait anxiety was lower than that of literature students (P < 0.05). The GAD of the male was lower compared with the female. The score of family function has significant differences in gender, age, education, and region (P < 0.05). Gender, family function, state anxiety, trait anxiety, and GAD relate to others (r = 0.07∼0.85, p < 0.05). The results of fit indices for measurement invariance models showed that the impact of family function among GAD, state and trait anxiety across gender is significantly different (each step p < 0.05). GAD and trait anxiety had a complete meditating effect between family function and state anxiety (the proportion of standard indirect mediating effect was 24.94% in females and 36.79% in males). A healthy family function may alleviate GAD and anxiety of college students during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…A theme that runs through all the studies is the importance of considering the context in which psychological aspects surrounding students' motivation takes place. This context could refer to the country or school system in which the study was conducted (Diseth et al, 2020;Niehues et al, 2020;Van der Veen & Peetsma, 2020), the timing of the measurements (Duchesne & Ratelle, 2020;Van der Veen & Peetsma, 2020), or the motivational climate, messages, or incentives students received (Boskovic, 2020;Coudevylle et al, 2020;Mo e & Putwain, 2020). My sincere gratitude goes out to the many volunteer reviewers and the team of Educational Psychology for their time and expertise to strengthen the quality of the articles.…”

“…Moreover, they looked at carrying out pedagogical actions with techno-pedagogical resources [16] or reading development via students choosing texts [17]. It has been shown that intrinsic motivation affects men and women differently, especially when there is a public assessment of academic performance [18].…”

This work adapts and validates the scale of the motivated strategies for learning questionnaire (MSLQ), which is used to measure motivation. For this, an instrumental design was carried out with the purpose of analyzing the psychometric properties of the instrument. The sample consisted of 307 participants enrolled in compulsory secondary education. Reliability with fit indices were good in model B (proposed) with composite reliability, global reliability index, and Cronbach’s alpha. The original model (A) presented small problems that had to be adjusted when carrying out the translation. We concluded that adaptation and subsequent validation of the MSLQ instrument into a Spanish context was positive. In this sense, adequate adjustment rates have been achieved. However, in its contextual adequacy, the need arises to modify the presentation of the items alluding to intrinsic motivation due to the difficulty of measuring such a construct. Among the implications reached in this study is the possibility of having a validated instrument for the Spanish adolescent context to measure motivation on educational aspects. Furthermore, this tool can serve as the basis for the design of other instruments that measure this construct in other age ranges.
