How Do Students Understand the Concept of “Curiosity?” Critical Implications for Research From a Multiple Methods Investigation - Alyssa Emery, Rebecca Louick, Nicolas Stelter, 2026 Given the link between curiosity and students’ motivation and achievement, research often explores when and how students experience curiosity in school. However...

What if school isn’t the right place to study curiosity?

What should researchers do if students don’t think there’s a meaningful difference between curiosity & interest?

Do we need students to feel curious at all?

Our study offers some considerations for the next phase of curiosity research:

In particular, my deepest gratitude to Jeff Greene for his editorial stewardship. I learned so much from his incisive and constructive feedback, and sincerely value his championing of our ideas as we've worked to weave them together.

I want to publicly thank the outgoing editors, Jeff Greene and Lisa Linnenbrink-Garcia, for leading the field in affirming that disability is not a peripheral issue, but central to the work we do as educational psychologists, & that students with disabilities matter in both scholarship and practice.

So while my primary hope is that you (yep, you) design your next study actively recruiting students with disabilities to be in it, I also hope that reading the articles helps you strike up a conversation with a colleague about these ideas too.

...which means we've had a number of years to name these ideas and hear each other's perspectives and find consensus. Writing & editing these manuscripts helped us see where we disagreed or were talking past each other in ways that I think are truly valuable for all collaborators to experience.

I'm not doing these manuscripts any justice in this thread! They are thought-provoking yet accessible; clear and compelling. I'm so indebted to the authors & editorial team for their efforts on this special issue which has been *years* in the making.

And lucky readers, Kristen Bottema-Beutel provided a commentary, too! She unpacks the notion of 'research quality' and provides key considerations for methodology when working with samples that include students with disabilities.

Erik Hines, Renae Mayes, Donna Ford, Tanya Middleton, and James Moore III demonstrate how existing frameworks (like bioecological systems theories) can be transformed to amplify students' strengths and turn a critical eye on making real systemic change when rooted in Afrocentric cultural styles.

Samantha Daley argues that research in the field would be better--more robust, asking more interesting research questions and offering enriched insights--if researchers designed studies in the same way teachers are encouraged to design their classrooms: inclusive from the beginning.

Educational Psychologist Toward Equity in Educational Psychology: Including Students with Disabilities in Research and Theory. Volume 60, Issue 3 of Educational Psychologist

It's here! The newest issue of @edpsychjournal.bsky.social asks: why aren't you including students with disabilities in your research?

Then, an amazing group of scholars demonstrate how and why they DO. I want to highlight a few aspects of the special issue in particular:

A slide with a picture of OSU coach Ryan Day. The slide heading reads “Dimensions of Attributions: Why did OSU lose to Michigan?” Also on the slide is a 2x2 grid representing the dimensions of attribution theory. As an example of stable, internal attribution, the text reads “I am irreparably bad at my job.”

To that end, to do my part in changing the tide, that's all I know to do: conduct the kind of empirical & conceptual work I want to see, ask questions about the exclusion of participants with disabilities when I'm asked to review, and bring up these topics on forums like this one. Other ideas? 9/9
