The study was carried out to determine the knowledge of child development students about foreign body aspiration in children, their first aid self-efficacy for foreign body aspiration, and to examine the relationship between their knowledge levels and first aid self-efficacy. The study was of descriptive and cross-sectional type. 118 students were…

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),…

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…

Test anxiety or academic anxiety is an emotional state characterized by intense fear, nervousness, and stress that occurs in the context of academic assessments such as exams, tests, projects, or presentations. Test anxiety negatively affects efficiency in academic tasks, leading to decreased academic performance. Test anxiety in students can be…

The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between the self-efficacy perception for environmental education and ecological footprint awareness of the child development programme students. Sample group of the study which was carried out according to the correlational survey model was specified according to convenience sampling. The…

Recent research focusing on the sources of listening anxiety identified individual and external factors (IEF), listeners' control over input (LC), and perceived level of task difficulty (PTD) as the main causes of anxiety among L2 listeners. This correlational study aims to explore whether the sources of anxiety in L2 listening have a causal…

Understanding why students drop out from university has received much research attention. While the influence of students' individual characteristics is well understood, the role of universities, however, has rather been neglected. This study draws attention to the effect of study conditions on individual dropout intention. On focus is the…

The motivational basis of self-regulated learning lays a solid theoretical framework for education researchers to look closely at the learners' intrinsic motivational factors in enhancing their academic outcomes. Particularly, learners' motivation forces, embedded in the self-regulatory learning (SRL) process, have not been well researched in an…

According to Bandura's theory of reciprocal determinism, self-efficacy and academic achievement can have a mutual influence over one another. While empirical research generally supports this position, little focus has been given to within- and between-person factors that may moderate this relationship. The present study explored how initial…

Major declaration is a significant task for a college student, and the major selected typically indicates a student's intentions for pursuing a related career. However, few research studies have examined the impact of the timing of a student's major declaration in relation to their hopes for their future career. The purpose of this study was to…

Understanding the individual qualities sustaining students with and without specific learning disabilities (SLDs) is key to supporting their academic achievement and well-being. In this study, we investigated the differences between students with and without SLDs in terms of intraindividual factors (soft skills and study-related factors), academic…

Introduction: Burnout emerges as a common problem during the university period when social competition and expectations from the individual increase, and daily life becomes increasingly complicated due to augmenting stress factors. The aim of this study was to examine whether the school burnout of university students can be predicted significantly…

The interruption of regular physical exercise among Chinese college students is a key cause of the lack of motivation to exercise. Therefore, on the basis of self-efficacy theory, this study analysed the interrelationships between the perception of transformational leadership in physical education (PE) by teachers, physical self-efficacy, and…

Studying determinant factors for effective learning communities has become a priority for sustainable education in Yemen. Yet, comprehensive knowledge of academic self-efficacy (ASE), academic commitment (AC), and learning outcomes (LOs) variables is limited in higher education, particularly. This research aimed to examine the role of these…

The present study investigated the relations among math anxiety, math self-concept, and math self-efficacy on math achievement in older students and underserved ethnic minorities (i.e., Blacks and Hispanics) in higher education. These two groups have been largely neglected in the math self-construct literature. The results showed that older…
