Psychometric properties of AMAS and math anxiety prevalence among Chinese and Russian schoolchildren: a comparative study.

The purpose of this study was to compare the prevalence of math anxiety in Russian and Chinese schoolchildren across genders and ages. The Abbreviated Math Anxiety Scale (AMAS) was used as a measurement tool for assessing math anxiety. The factor structure of the AMAS and item invariance between Russian and Chinese schoolchildren were also examined.

Life Satisfaction Among Adolescents: Validation of the Adapted Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale.

Life satisfaction is associated with adolescents' adaptability, academic achievement, and mental health, and it reflects the profile of a country's economic development. In this study, we assessed the psychometric properties of the Russian version of the Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS). The initial adaptation of the MSLSS was performed using a sample of primary school students.

Factor structure and psychometric properties of the Perceived Stress Scale in Russian adolescents.

This study involved a psychometric analysis of the 10-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10). To investigate the Russian version of the PSS-10 for adolescents, 3530 adolescents aged 13-17 years were recruited. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the data corresponded to the expected two-factor configuration.

An Independent Evaluation of the Psychometric Properties of the Russian Version of the Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale (PDSS).

Background: The quality of sleep significantly impacts children's day-to-day performance, with at least 20% reporting issues with sleepiness. Valid tools for assessing the quality of sleep are needed.

Objective: In this study, we assessed the psychometric properties of the Russian version of the Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale (PDSS).

Large-scale study of the precision of the approximate number system: Differences between formats, heterogeneity and congruency effects.

The study used a large sample of elementary schoolchildren in Russia (N = 3,448, 51.6% were girls, with a mean age of 8.70 years, ranging 6-11 years) to investigate the congruency, format and heterogeneity effects in a nonsymbolic comparison test and between-individual differences in these effects with generalized linear mixed effects models (GLMMs).
