The findings of previous studies on the correlation between trait mindfulness (MF) and academic performance (AP) have been inconsistent. The purpose of the current study was to provide a thorough synthesis of prior research based on a three-level random-effects meta-analytic model to explore the link between trait MF and AP, as well as potential…

Self-regulation was found to be positively associated with school performance. Interrelations between self-regulation, working memory (WM), and achievement goals, in particular mastery goals, have been established, as well as associations with academic outcomes. It stands to reason that self-regulation, WM, achievement goals, and academic success…

Reading is one of the most basic academic skills. An accurate monitor of one's text comprehension (i.e., metacomprehension) is essential for effective reading as it guides learning and choices of appropriate strategy used to maximize overall understanding. The processes of reading comprehension and metacomprehension are affected by text-related,…

The primary objective was to investigate the relations between college students' achievement goals and their engagement in self-regulated learning using a person-centered approach. College students (N = 364) completed surveys that assessed mindset, self-efficacy, anxiety, achievement goals, and self-regulated learning. Latent profile analyses…

The current study aimed to identify the level of self-regulation and social intelligence among students of the College of Education at Prince Sattam University in Wadi Al-Dawasir, and to reveal the relationship between self-regulation and social intelligence, as well as the possibility of predicting social intelligence through self-regulation. A…

This study aimed at identifying the level of each of the academic self-regulation and self-esteem, and goal orientations; and identifying the gender differences in each variable, as well as identifying the relationship between academic self-regulation and self-esteem, and goal orientations. The sample of the study consisted of 463 students from…

Background: Implicit theories are important belief systems that influence an individual's motivation and behaviour. In academic contexts, domain-general implicit theories of ability (e.g., intelligence) and their relation to self-regulated learning (SRL) have been examined. Aims: In this study, we followed a domain-specific approach and first…

Research has shown a bi-directional association between the (perceived) amount of invested effort to learn or retrieve information (e.g., time, mental effort) and metacognitive monitoring judgments. The direction of this association likely depends on how learners allocate their effort. In self-paced learning, effort allocation is usually data…

The COVID-19 pandemic has moved university teaching and learning activities that conventionally take place in physical classrooms to online platforms. There is an urgent need to investigate university students' experience and perceptions of online learning during the pandemic so as to optimize online learning strategies in tertiary education…

The main objective of the present research was to explore students' experiences of emergency remote teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, we were interested in how strategies for coping with an emergency situation, learning strategies and positivity relate to this experience. A total of 337 university students participated in the…

The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to the accelerated spread of e-learning around the world. In e-learning, self-regulation becomes more relevant than ever. Reducing the influence of traditional features of the face-to-face learning environment and increasing the impact of the e-environment place high demands on students' self-regulation. The…

In this paper, we examined how kindergarteners' self-evaluation biases are related to behavioural self-regulation (SR) and learning goal orientation (GO). According to educational research and practice, fostering high and optimistic academic self-concepts promotes the setting of challenging goals and initiates effective behavioural SR processes.…

Many college students engage in harmful levels of marijuana use, which is associated with negative consequences, including poor academic achievement and failing to reach developmental milestones (Johnston et al., 2016; Schulenberg et al., 2005). The relationship between personal goals and substance use is complex. Understanding the perceived…

When asked about the impact of language advising sessions that our students attend, they report various positive effects. These sessions are a crucial part of the English Autonomously course at Masaryk University. As they were introduced to support students in their self-regulated learning, they should primarily foster course attendees' abilities…

This study examines the relationship between autonomy support from instructors, self-regulated learning, mastery goal orientation and academic stress. College and graduate students in China (N=366) participated in this study. Mediation analysis was used to examine the relationships between the constructs. The results indicate that academic stress…
