It also aims to contribute to the development of students' academic and social-emotional skills, in other…

Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) is important to solve learning problems. This research aimed to determine the effect of the problem-solving based Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) strategy on simple harmonic motion material toward the metacognitive abilities of student's senior high school. This research applied a quasi-experimental method with a…

In this study we investigated the relationships between nomophobia, psychological resilience, and mindfulness using a covariance-based structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis and examined the mediating role of psychological resilience in the relationship between mindfulness and nomophobia.
