Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced the whole world, thus also affecting the high school graduates in Croatia. Aims: The purpose of the study was to examine the psychological distress ...high school graduates experienced during the COVID-19 social distancing measures, more precisely to investigate gender and school type differences and to examine the relationship between psychological distress and self-regulated learning. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, an online questionnaire was administered to 13,037 high school graduates across Croatia. Results: The results show that girls exhibit higher levels of psychological distress compared to the boys, while the art school graduates show the highest distress, followed by gymnasium (i.e., secondary grammar school, prep school) graduates, and lastly vocational school graduates. Furthermore, a moderate negative correlation was found between self-efficacy and psychological distress, and significant, but small correlations were found between regulation of effort, management of work, time and environment, self-handicapping as well as elaboration and psychological distress. These results show that higher levels of self-regulation are connected to lower levels of psychological distress. Conclusions: These findings demonstrate that a need exists for greater accessibility of mental health care for adolescents.
Statement is a summary discourse on issues involving environmental degradation of the soil in the core curriculum reformed Polish school and its actual implementation. Also reviewed the coefficients ...pass rates of test tasks on the issues discussed at the Matura examination since 2006, together with an indication of the reasons for their low values.
Problem zapewnienia kobietom wykształcenia na poziomie średnim stał się na ziemiach polskich niezwykle istotny w drugiej połowie XIX wieku. Kwestia ta była szczególnie aktualna w zaborze austriackim, ...gdy w latach 90. XIX wieku dziewczęta zostały dopuszczone do egzaminów maturalnych oraz studiów uniwersyteckich. W Galicji nie istniały jednak gimnazja żeńskie, a żaden z typów ówczesnych „średnich” szkół żeńskich (takich jak wyższe szkoły wydziałowe, seminaria nauczycielskie czy licea żeńskie) nie dawał możliwości zdania egzaminu maturalnego umożliwiającego wstęp na studia wyższe. Wobec niechęci władz państwowych do tworzenia państwowych gimnazjów żeńskich równych gimnazjom męskim, jedynym rozwiązaniem było tworzenie placówek prywatnych. Powstawały one jako odpowiedź na potrzeby społeczne i były efektem oddolnego społecznego działania. Pierwsza tego typu szkoła średnia – nie tylko na terenie Galicji, ale wszystkich trzech zaborów – powstała w 1896 roku w Krakowie. Przed wybuchem I wojny światowej funkcjonowały w Krakowie trzy klasyczne gimnazja żeńskie: I Prywatne Wyższe Gimnazjum Żeńskie, Prywatne Wyższe Gimnazjum Żeńskie im. Królowej Jadwigi oraz Prywatne Gimnazjum Żeńskie Heleny Strażyńskiej (potem: Józefa i Marii Lewickich) oraz gimnazjum realne sióstr urszulanek. Koncepcja prywatnego gimnazjum żeńskiego zyskała wpierw aprobatę społeczną, a stopniowo również dużą popularność. W galicyjskich gimnazjach uczyła się ponad połowa uczennic uczęszczających do gimnazjów żeńskich położonych na terenie Przedlitawii.
Matura is a Slovene national examination, which all the students take after successfully completing secondary education. The Matura has two major functions; it is a high school final examination and ...a selection instrument for University. The goal of the study was to investigate the predictive validity of Matura for predicting academic success in study programmes in the area of humanities and social sciences. Predictive validity was studied both from the traditional correlational perspective and from the multilevel regression perspective. Additionally, we checked for possible differences in predictive validity between study programmes. According to the expectations, the Matura score was a relatively strong and robust predictor of later academic achievement, even after controlling for the high school overall grade. The results support the use of Matura scores in selection of candidates for undergraduate studies in humanities and social sciences.

We focus on two types of centralised national examinations (the 10th grade tests and Matura examination) that are being carried out in Lithuania for two decades. The aim of the paper is to analyse ...assessments of mathematics for the entire Lithuanian secondary school population that have no sampling errors while considering the factors of location, school ownership and gender as important indicators when judging about educational effectiveness in terms of quality and equity. We analyse the results of the 10th grade tests for the 2011–2015 period and the results of the same cohorts participating in the Matura examination. We observe that the distribution of the assessments of both exams is asymmetric with a positive skew. The median often is below the middle of the grade scale indicating poor performance or mismatch between knowledge and examination tasks. There are limited differences in assessments with respect to gender and school location, although we detect a tendency to have better mathematics achievement in private schools. The conclusions drawn from national assessment data is somewhat different from international data thus one cannot neglect national information for the development of educational policy. The variables analysed in the analysis has limited predictive power for achievements in mathematics and further analysis is called-for.

Aqueous leaf extract of Senna auriculata (L.) Roxb. syn. Cassia auriculata (SLEx) is known to possess potential antidiabetic and antioxidant properties. Based on the known correlation between ...exocrine pancreatic function and endocrine secretary capacity, here, we studied the prophylactic effect of the SLEx on alcohol induced pancreatitis in rats. To induce chronic pancreatitis, the rats were fed with unsaturated fat i.e. corn oil (2.5 mL/kg) along with high dose of ethanol (10.2 g/kg) for 4 wk, and was increased 0.6 g/kg after every 2 days for 1 wk and then 0.6 g/kg after every 4 days for a period of 4 wk. SLEx was orally administered to rats at dose of 400 mg/kg/day for 4 wk. At the end of 4th wk, pancreatic enzymes i.e., α-amylase, lipase, serum and pancreatic MDA levels were estimated. Pancreatic histopathological studies were also performed. The SLEx significantly reduced the serum levels of α-amylase and lipase along with significant suppression in serum and pancreatic tissue lipid peroxidation. Histomorphological studies did not show any fatty vacoules in acinar cells of SLEx-treated rats. However, vacoulation was seen in acini of pathogenic control rats. With the results, we conclude that Senna auriculata aqueous leaf extract has potential to reduce the ethanol-induced pathogenecity, and it possesses prophylactic effect on alcohol-induced pancreatitis. However, a long term trial is needed to ascertain its therapeutic potential for pancreatitis.
This paper attempts to explain why test cheating in Croatia seemingly prevails despite the introduction of a standardised examination, the state matura. It offers a contrast to sweeping cultural ...explanations of the stereotypical Eastern-European cheater and attempts to examine the issue more thoroughly. The Croatian state matura is a secondary school exit examination which was adopted as part of the surge of neoliberal policies around the world and was financed through a World Bank loan. The position taken here is that borrowed neoliberal policies, like standardised assessment, lead to unpredictable and unexpected responses in post-socialist settings (Silova, 2010; Steiner-Khamsi and Stolpe, 2006), offering new perspectives and explanations on educational practices more generally. The concepts of comparative and transcendental justice (Sen, 1999, 2009) are used to illustrate how cheating practices in Croatian educational settings seemingly prevailed, despite the introduction of the state matura. The paper maps the trend of Croatian teachers' handling of cheating and suggests that standardised assessment cultivates a vision of educational fairness that is both enabled and constrained by a belief in a perfectly just procedure.
