“…Thus, it would be desirable to confirm our findings in a sample of students from other school levels. Thirdly, our analyses are based on the students' selfreported disengagement, which means that the predictive validity of the measurement of students' school engagement may have been influenced by the sample characteristics as well as by other proximal and distal factors of academic outcomes (Carter et al 2012). Although self-reported assessment is common for research on school engagement (Fredricks and McColskey 2012), a combination of assessment instruments, including teacher ratings, interviews, and observation, should be used in further studies to avoid the limitation of the self-reported measurement.…”

Actual school dropout among immigrant youth has been addressed in a number of studies, but research on hidden school dropout among immigrant students is rare. Thus, the objective of this paper is to analyze hidden school dropout among primary school students with an immigrant background. The analyses were performed using survey data of 1186 immigrant students in Swiss primary schools. Our results show that immigrant students' academic achievement, their attitudes towards school-related values, and the quality of their relationships with classmates and teachers were significant predictors of their disengagement during classes. Moreover, our findings strongly suggest that those predictors that are important for actual school dropout are crucial for hidden school dropout as well. We conclude that low-achieving immigrant youth who do not value school and who have poor relationships with teachers and peers are especially at risk of hidden and, eventually, of actual school dropout.

“…Although engagement is relatively diverse in its definitions and coverage, researchers have reached a consensus that the construct is multidimensional and encompasses different aspects (e.g., behavioural, cognitive, and emotional), operating together to reflect students' positive approach to learning Carter et al, 2012;Fredricks et al, 2004;Phan, 2014b;Schaufeli et al, 2002;Upadyaya & Salmela-Aro, 2013). However, researchers have consistently disagreed on the types and number of the dimensions of engagement Fredricks et al, 2004;Li & Lerner, 2011;Schaufeli et al, 2002).…”

Engagement is a prominent theoretical orientation that has received great attention from educators and researchers. This article provides a literature overview of the engagement construct pertaining to its various definitions, dimensions, and major conceptualisations. In addition, the review sheds light on two major approaches to engagement in the current literature: one entails students' cognitive, behavioural, and emotional engagement

show abstract

“…The emotional engagement dimension reflects both the positive and negative reactions to teachers' instructions, classmates and school, perceptions of school belonging, and beliefs about the value of schooling. Finally, behavioural engagement is defined in terms of student's participation in classroom tasks, conduct, and participation in school-related extracurricular activities (see also Carter et al 2012;Sheppard, 2011).…”

Student engagement is a key factor in academic achievement and degree completion, though there is much debate about the operationalization and dimensionality of this construct. The goal of this paper is to describe the development of an psycho-educational oriented measure -the University Student Engagement Inventory (USEI). This measure draws on the conceptualization of engagement as a multidimensional construct, including cognitive, behavioural and emotional engagement. Participants were 609 Portuguese University students (67 % female) majoring in Social Sciences, Biological Sciences or Engineering and Exact Sciences. The content, construct and predictive validity, and reliability of the USEI were tested. The validated USEI was composed of 15 items, and supported the tri-factorial structure of student engagement. We documented evidence of adequate reliability, factorial, convergent and discriminant validities. USEI's concurrent validity, with the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-Student Survey, and the predictive validity for self-reported academic achievement and intention to dropout from school were also observed.
