摘要:Background: In reference to the interactionist paradigm, we analyse how students’ emotional states during class are affected by student’ self-regulation, by time-varying characteristics within learning situations, and by the interaction of self-regulation abilities and learning situations during class. Methods: We refer to existing empirical research on teaching and learning processes in vocational education and report findings from a process-oriented video study in naturalistic settings that was realised at a German vocational school.Altogether, 92 students were investigated during 1440 min of instruction by use of videography and continuous-state-sampling method (CSSM).The frequency of repeated measurement was 7 min, with 46–51 measures per student. Results: Via latent class analysis, we first identified two types of students who differ in their self-regulation abilities.Then, a multilevel analysis revealed that students’ self-regulation affects students’ emotional states.In addition, we found that emotional states tend to be affected by the interaction of self-regulation and learning situations within lessons (but that’s just a sample-related and non-significant effect). Conclusions: In view of a holistic understanding of teaching and learning processes in vocational education, a deeper knowledge surrounding the interdependencies between personality characteristics, emotional states, and learning situations seems to be essential for an evidence-based design for teaching and learning environments in vocational education and training.
