Due to the pure novelty of the concept of teacher L2 grit, scant research attention has been dedicated to the exploration of its antecedents within the domain of foreign language education. Therefore, the present study aimed to explore whether English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers' L2 grit could be predicted by their sense of self-efficacy…

Objective: To examine the relative contribution of transition readiness (i.e., healthcare self-management) to health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among emerging adult (EA) college students without a chronic medical condition (CMC). Participants: College students (n = 2372; Mage = 19.32, SD = 1.26) from a Midwestern university. Methods:…

The primary goal of this study was to examine young adults' perspectives about the effects of their food allergies (FAs) on their social lives from school-age to young adulthood.

Physical Education (PE) teachers' responsibility is critical in supporting the development of students' motivation, positive attitude and behaviour. This study explored students' conflict management styles, the most common sources of conflicts during PE, and the relationship between conflict management styles, self-perceived health and social-…

The aim of college education is not only to teach students professional knowledge and skills but also to develop their self-regulated learning (SRL) ability, which has great significance for their lifelong development. This study aims to investigate the roles played by professional identity, intrinsic motivation, and sense of school belonging in…

This article reports on a qualitative study that explored self-care practices among first-year students in managing stressors related to the first-year experience in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mathematics Anxiety (MA) is an increasing challenge for mathematics educators and is a barrier to mathematical learning. Through reflection on the implementation of a lesson sequence designed to elicit regular use of explicit metacognitive questions (EMQ's), this paper explores the impact of the incorporation of self-regulated learning (SRL)…

Risk-taking in the outdoors provides opportunities for young tamariki to develop their physical skills and learn to self-manage risk.

Poor academic performance is known to be linked to the tendency to procrastinate. The latter is thought to reflect deficits in effort regulation and study time management (i.e. learning-related resources), but some recent results have suggested that it could stem from psychological inflexibility. The main objective of the present study was thus to…

Although there is a consensus regarding the positive effects of self-monitoring interventions on improving on-task behaviors of students with disabilities, the findings for maintenance and generalization have not been shown to be consistent across studies (i.e., Cook & Sayeski, 2020; Wood et al., 2002). The current study aimed to assess the…

We investigated whether finger pointing can be used as a cognitive load self-management strategy when learning from split-attention examples. We expected that pointing would reduce cognitive load and enhance learning performance. In a guided self-management phase, 122 university students studied a split-attention example under three pointing…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is the metacognitive aspect of learning that goes beyond learning content and skills. With SRL, students are aware of their content understanding and learning progress and use advanced thinking skills to create goals and improve their academic achievement. In this action research, SRL strategies were integrated into…
