“…Adolescence is characterized by the expansion of social networks, increased importance of peer relationships, and a desire to belong (Allen et al, 2014 ; Sawyer et al, 2018 ). Concurrently, self-consciousness and social evaluation are heightened during adolescence (Higa McMillan et al, 2018 ; Somerville, 2013 ). Therefore, acquiring social competencies during this developmental stage is important for helping adolescents attain valued social goals such as feeling accepted, receiving support and experiencing a sense of belonging.…”

According to self-determination theory competence is a basic psychological need that is crucial for wellbeing. Social contexts strongly influence whether competence is supported or thwarted. Given that social media is a pervasive social context within adolescents’ lives, it can play a crucial role in competence development. Three qualitative methods were used to investigate mid-adolescents’ perspectives of how their social media use impacts competence. Participants included 36 students aged 15 years from four Australian schools. All participants completed a rich picture mapping activity and focus group discussions. A sub-sample of 11 students participated in follow-up interviews. Reflexive thematic analysis generated two overarching themes. The first theme cultivating competence includes sub-themes; enhancing social competencies, mastery experiences and goal accomplishment, and social media expertise. The second theme constraining competence includes sub-themes; ineffectance within the social media environment, interfering with sleep, and hindering learning. Findings demonstrated that social media contributes to today’s adolescents encountering unique experiences with regards to competence development. Furthermore, adolescents’ interactions on social media have broad implications for competence within online and offline realms. This study identifies aspects of social media use that can be targeted to help adolescents engage with social media in ways that cultivate rather than constrain competence.

“…During early adolescence, a developmental period when selfconsciousness is salient and peers' perceptions hold great importance (Higa-McMillan et al, 2018), DLLs' language efficacy (i.e., beliefs about their capabilities to use language) may be a particularly important motivator for classroom discussion. Language efficacy may also be a strength of DLLs given their rich language experience (i.e., having knowledge of two languages; U.S. Department of Health & Human Services & U.S. Department of Education, 2020).…”

This study examined the relation between middle school Dual Language Learners’ (DLLs’; N = 413; M age = 11.66 years old; 87.1% Latino; female = 234, male = 179) reading comprehension skills and their teachers’ (N = 32; M age = 36.53 years; 81.3% Caucasian; female = 27, male = 5) questioning practices across the school year. This study also examined relations between DLLs’ engagement in high-quality discussion practices, language efficacy (i.e., beliefs about their capabilities to use language), and reading comprehension. Results demonstrated that teachers’ use of authentic (open-ended) questions was positively related to their DLL students’ reading comprehension; teachers’ questioning practices were consistent across the year. Results also revealed a positive interaction between DLLs’ high-quality discussion practices and their language efficacy in predicting reading comprehension. That is, when DLLs had higher language efficacy, there was a more positive effect of their high-quality discussion practices on their Spring reading comprehension scores. These findings suggest that teachers’ questioning practices are important in creating classroom environments that promote DLLs’ reading comprehension.
