This large, international dataset contains survey responses from N = 12,570 students from 100 universities in 35 countries, collected in 21 languages. We measured anxieties (statistics, mathematics, test, trait, social interaction, performance, creativity, intolerance of uncertainty, and fear of negative evaluation), self-efficacy, persistence, and the cognitive reflection test, and collected demographics, previous mathematics grades, self-reported and official statistics grades, and statistics module details. Data reuse potential is broad, including testing links between anxieties and statistics/mathematics education factors, and examining instruments’ psychometric properties across different languages and contexts. Data and metadata are stored on the Open Science Framework website [https://osf.io/mhg94/].

Access to higher education has been widely open for students with disabilities (SwD) as also enforced by the Government of Indonesia (GoI). However, challenges evidently face SwD in their survival of university life including limited accessible services and facilities, as well as negative stereotypes surrounding SwD. This study aimed to explore the diverse strategies adopted by SwD in navigating these challenges, examining the nuances and implications of the deployed strategies. This review explored the experiences of SwD in higher education institutions in Indonesia and adhered to the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Extension for Scoping Review) guidelines. Data were gathered from seven databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, ERIC, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and Portal Garuda. In total, 17 of 1777 articles were selected based on two inclusion criteria viz. peer-reviewed articles derived from empirical studies and utilizing life experiences of SwD in Indonesian HE as the primary data source. The study identified the five key strategies employed by SwD: Adaptation, Technology Assistive Optimization, Requesting Support, Building Relationships, and Passive Action. Detailed elaboration of the findings is presented to shed light on the prominent insight to improve the quality of education services for SwD in Indonesia.

Inclusive education is seen as promising way to accommodate students with disabilities in accessing higher education; yet, the implementation leaves challenges for the students with disabilities and also the faculties. Regarding the secondary education curriculum that is not preparing students with disabilities to attend higher education, students with disabilities are struggling in adjusting college life. This research aimed at confirming the influence of college readiness to college engagement of students with disabilities. There were 61 college students with disabilities participated in the survey on college readiness and college engagement. Independent T-Test and simple regression analysis was applied to test the hypothesis. The result showed that the college readiness influence college engagement with large effect size (r=.769>0.50, F=85.494, p (.000) <0.01) which indicates that the more students are college-ready, the more they are engaged. Subsection’s variables of gender and education background do not statistically significant affect the college readiness and engagement of students with disabilities. As the opportunity for students with disabilities attending college is uprising, college transition program is highly suggested to prepare students with disability for college life.

Self-advocacy is one of the personal factors essential for students with disabilities in college obtaining satisfactory achievements. This meta-analysis proves the strength of the relationship between self-advocacy and one of the success parameters of students with disabilities, namely academic achievement. It followed the guidelines from PRISMA. A literature search was conducted in four databases: Scopus, Web of Science, Psychnet, and Proquest, and 328 articles were obtained. Finally, six articles remained for further analysis. Based on the analysis using the DerSimonian and Laird (DL) estimator model, the estimated effect size was 0.29 (p<0.001; 95% CI=0.20 – 0.38). Although the results of the meta-analysis show a significant positive correlation between variables, there are things that need to be considered in terms of heterogeneity and the risk of publication bias.

Self-advocacy is known as an important skill for students with disabilities especially to participate in an inclusive social environment. The present study aimed to explore the root and foundation of the studies of self-advocacy of students with disabilities by identifying the impactful works, authors, and themes via bibliometric study. We retrieved a sample of 180 articles related to this topic from the Scopus database. The VOS viewer was applied to perform this bibliometric analysis, specifically by co-citation and co-occurrence analysis. We identified David W. Test has put the foundation on the studies of self-advocacy of students with disabilities. Moreover, the studies of self-determination were a root for the studies of self-advocacy. This study also provided insight related to the potential application of self-advocacy, such as in higher education and employment setting. This study will be valuable for researchers and practitioners in special education who are interested to explore this area.
