Examination of student learning approaches, reflective thinking, and epistemological beliefs: A latent variables approach Vol 4(3), pp: 577-610 (2006, background): “…have also examined students’ epistemological beliefs in relation to domain-specificity that involves study strategies and problem solving in accounting, history, mathematics, and hypermedia learning (Buehl & Alexander, 2005; Peng & Fitzgerald, 2006; Phillips, 2001; SchommerAikins et al., 2005).”
The Role of Epistemic Beliefs in Self-Regulated Learning (2007, background): “To date, research has shown that epistemic beliefs are related to motivational constructs such as competency beliefs and achievement value (e.g., Buehl & Alexander, 2005), mastery goals, self-efficacy, and interest (e.g., Bråten & Strømsø, 2005) and that epistemic beliefs are antecedents to…”
Knowledge and Epistemological Beliefs: An Intimate but Complicate Relationship (2008, background): “Further on, effects of epistemological beliefs were found in different discipline like mathematics (De Corte et al., 2002; Muis, 2004; Op’t Eynde et al., 2006) or history ( Buehl & Alexander, 2005; Limon, 2005).”
Modeling Epistemic and Ontological Cognition: Philosophical Perspectives and Methodological Directions (2008, background): “We concur with other researchers’ claims that individuals’ epistemic and ontological cognition can vary across domains (Buehl & Alexander, 2001, 2005; Buehl et al., 2002; Hallett et al., 2002; Muis et al., 2006).”

Beyond control of variables: What needs to develop to achieve skilled scientific thinking? (2008, background): “…is critical to young people’s academic progress in science (Leach et al., 1997; Metz, 2004; Sandoval, 2005), to their academic progress more broadly (Buehl & Alexander, 2005; Mason & Boscolo, 2004; Mason & Scirica, 2006), and to their intellectual productivity outside of and beyond school (Kuhn,…”
Expanding the Dimensions of Epistemic Cognition: Arguments From Philosophy and Psychology (2011, background): “Researchers investigating epistemological beliefs have studied the degree to which these beliefs are domain-general or domain-specific (eg, Buehl & Alexander, 2005 ).”
