Given the shortage of STEM workers, it is important to examine the factors associated with students' academic career intentions. However, the mechanism through which subjective norms influence academic career intentions has not been determined. Our study empirically tests a model identifying science identity as an intervening variable in this…

Performance in mathematics can be attributed to factors other than mathematical ability. A growing body of literature examines the significant impact of mathematics anxiety (MA) on mathematical performance and individuals' choices concerning study and career pathways. However, much of the focus has been on science, technology, engineering and…

Currently, the study of non-cognitive variables and their effect on the academic performance of students has gained relevance. In view of that, the purpose of the present study was to analyze through structural equation modeling to what extent growth mindset, self-efficacy, and grit have direct effects on student performance. For this, an…

In this study, the impact of training supported by the TUBITAK 2237-A Grant Program for Scientific Training on the self-efficacy of pre-service science teachers (PSSTs) in implementing the constructivist approach and delivering distance education (DE) was investigated. The research employed a single-group pretest-posttest experimental design, a…

The current study sought to understand the differences in leadership perspectives between foreign faculty in Korean universities and the Korean general population and how these differences interact with teacher efficacy within Korean university classrooms. A total of 116 valid participant responses were analyzed to address the research questions.…

Clinical supervision of trainees in the field of psychology is a crucial and required component of the training process. Yet, despite its ubiquity within the field, research on the factors that contribute to positive and negative supervisory experiences from the perspective of the trainee is relatively sparse.
