In recent years, e-learning engagement has attracted much attention because the COVID-19 pandemic has forced schools to shift to online teaching without preparation. Therefore, based on the ecological system theory, this study investigates the relationship between subjective socioeconomic status and e-learning engagement among college students and…

In higher education, motivational factors are considered one of "the strongest predictors of academic performance" (Honike et al., 2020, p. 1). A meta-analysis of face-to-face (f2f) courses (Richardson et al., 2012) supports these claims, finding a strong correlation between performance self-efficacy and academic performance (r = 0.59),…

The study explores the determinants of lifelong music learning intention among university students, focusing on the mediating roles of attitude toward music learning, perceived social support, and perceived music learning feasibility in the relationship between authoritative parenting style and lifelong music learning intention. This study used…

Background: More than one-third of university students meet diagnostic criteria for a mental disorder, and three quarters experience role impairment in some aspect of their life. One determinant of whether young adults will experience mental health difficulties is their ability to regulate emotion. We conducted two pilot trials of a brief online…

Self-efficacy, motivation, and learning strategies are crucial in second/foreign language (L2) acquisition and general learning. However, we are not sure yet the unique or combined contributions of self-efficacy to learning strategies by way of instrumental and integrative motivation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of…

In recent years, flipping classrooms has become a popular topic of discussion. However, few previous studies have focused on the effect of the flow experience on programming self-efficacy. To address this gap, the present researchers developed a model that included six research hypotheses. The study applied a flipped classroom model to a…

Purpose: Students completing their tertiary education at a university may be equipped with theoretical knowledge with little to no practical experience. In order to bridge this gap in practical skills, a computer simulation was developed based on the e-filing platform of the South African Revenue Services (SARS). Students were exposed to this…

Most previous studies have focused on learners' self-efficacy in face-to-face learning environments, while few have delved into that of MOOC learners. No research has touched upon the MOOC self-efficacy of engineering students in developed and developing countries. This research compared the self-efficacy levels of engineering students in Taiwan…

With current social, environmental and economic challenges, there is an increasing need to encourage more sustainable business models, which include social entrepreneurship, in the education of our future leaders and entrepreneurs. This has resulted in significant research and practice towards improving students' social entrepreneurial intention…

We examined the extent to which anxious attachment and avoidant attachment predicted loneliness and social self-efficacy among 863 college students. Further, we investigated whether social self-efficacy mediated the relationships between the two insecure attachment styles and loneliness. Pearson correlations and regression analysis showed that…

To explore the effect of active social media use (ASMU) on the mechanisms of flow experience (FE), 433 questionnaires incorporating an active social media use scale, academic self-efficacy (ASE) scale, and flow experience scale were collected from college students. This study is expected to enrich flow experience theory and provide a foundation…

Students must take responsibility for their learning and participate in learning activities to achieve the purpose of learning activities in distance education. Students' service quality perceptions, attitudes, and self-efficacy regarding distance education are important variables in this context. To that end, this study investigates the higher…

Previous studies on civic engagement have been reviewed in their contextual factors, for example, factors in organizational, pedagogical, and psychological domains, while little research has confirmed the structural linkage of related latent variables in this topic. This study intends to investigate college students' civic engagement efficacy that…

In recent years, an increasing number of students with specific learning disabilities (SLDs) have enrolled in universities. The present exploratory study examined the frequency of use and appreciation of universal (open to every student) and specific services (offered to students with SLDs) and their relation to age, academic achievement,…

The purpose of this quantitative comparative study was to examine differences in college-level math students' self-efficacy attributable to recent use of virtual reality (VR) learning environments and processes. The theoretical foundation for this study included connectivism, multi-dimensionalism and social cognitive theory, and self-efficacy…
