In every learning environment, several factors such as mindfulness, self-regulation, school engagement, and resilience may compel students to move beyond their limits to sustain learning and improve their academic performance. The study, therefore, investigated the predictive roles of academic mindfulness, self-regulated learning, and school…

Previous research has linked emotional intelligence (EI) to academic performance, albeit mostly in primary and secondary education. This association is unclear for teacher education due to a lack of research, especially in Ghana. This quantitative study examined EI patterns in pre-service teachers at a Ghanaian university to extend previous…

In this scientific investigation, the researchers have designed and developed a new model "The Framework of Self-Regulated Cognitive Engagement" (FSRCE) that integrates self-regulated learning (SRL) and cognitive engagement (CE), addressing the limitations of previously developed frameworks. The FSRCE model is guided by core principles,…

The primary objective of this paper is twofold; firstly, to analyse the relationship between metacognitive strategies and learning performance. Secondly, a new mediator is proposed, namely digital literacy. Mental resilience is an omnitemporal skill that enables individuals to gain resilience thinking to successfully adapt to life tasks. Although…

This study aimed to investigate EFL students' writing strategies used in comparison to gender and year level. A descriptive-comparison design was used for this study, whereby a total of 148 English major students participated from Wolkite University and Wachamo University. To this end, the data were collected through questionnaire. The results of…

This study examined the metacognitive knowledge of Finnish comprehensive school students and explored whether grade-based differences in metacognitive knowledge exist among 6th, 7th and 9th graders. Integrating qualitative (declarative, procedural, conditional) and contextual (person, task, strategy) frameworks, the research aims for a…

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship and prediction of motivation, conceptual understanding, and critical thinking on metacognition in introductory physics. A correlational research design with multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the data from 84 first-year pre-engineering students from two public universities in…

Addressing feedback-associated stress as a barrier to learning is increasingly relevant to student success and well-being. Mindfulness practices support stress management for students during the academic feedback process. Even if students receive high-quality feedback, the receiving end of feedback can be stressful, perhaps raising feelings of…

The goal of this study was to test whether psychological availability and mindfulness are associated with cognitive overload in two student populations with and without learning disabilities. This study tested hypotheses regarding the differences between the two study populations and the degree of association between the study variables. 60…

Humanistic caring (HC) is a key ability that nurses need. We aimed to explore factors related to humanistic caring ability (HCA) among Chinese nursing students and the association between professional identity (PI) and HCA. A cross-sectional survey was conducted. HCA of Nursing Undergraduates Assessment Scale (HCANU) and PI Scale for Nurse…

Children's self-regulation has been studied from a cognitive-behavioral perspective. However, the vital learning process involves how students absorb, assimilate, and respond to surrounding factors; thus, self-regulation also should be examined from a sociocultural perspective to support children's autonomous rather than controlled…

Strategy instruction during reading can aid metacomprehension producing higher judgement of learning (JOL) and prediction of performance (POP). In contrast, verbal working memory (WM) limitations cause metacognitive deficits and lengthy expository texts impose greater cognitive load. However, impact of cognitive factors and reading lengthy…

This study dealt with the students' language profile, metacognitive reading strategies, and reading comprehension performance adopting the descriptive-correlational method of the four hundred forty-six randomly selected students enrolled in the colleges of Forestry, Education, Engineering, Computer Science, and Information Technology in a…

The present study examined the professional identity development of five student-teachers in the context of team-teaching. Data were collected from stimulated recall sessions, semi-structured interviews, and reflective reports, which were analyzed through thematic analysis. Findings indicate that the student-teachers' professional identity was…

This study investigated the epistemic conventions of pedagogical practices in higher education (HE) from the viewpoints of lecturers. Phenomenological design, focusing on semi-structured interview guide, was considered for the study. Through the purposive sampling technique, 15 lecturers from three departments of institution of higher learning…
