Maria Theobald – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2025
Background and Aims: The hypothesis that study strategies can compensate for less study time in predicting learning outcomes has often been proposed but rarely tested empirically. Methods: In the present study, 231 university students reported their daily perceived time spent on self-study, study strategies (planning, monitoring, concentration and…

Rebecca Hey; Mark McDaniel; Flaviu A. Hodis – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Being an effective learner is an important pillar supporting success in higher education and beyond. This research aimed to uncover the extent to which undergraduate students use a set of commonly researched learning strategies, as well as to understand how learning strategy usage relates to key self-regulation factors proposed in influential…

He, Jingwen; Liu, Yue; Ran, Tong; Zhang, Danhui – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
Feedback plays an important role in self-regulated learning. However, little is known about how students' feedback perception affects their self-regulation process in learning. This study adopted the social cognitive perspective to investigate how students' feedback perception is related to their self-regulated learning, along with the mediating…

N. L. Higgins; Joseph A. Rathner; Sarah Frankland – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2023
Background: Self-regulated learning (SRL) encompasses the strategies and behaviours that allow students to transform cognitive abilities into task-specific academic skills. Research in higher education has found a relationship between SRL and academic outcomes. However, whether SRL improves as students gain educational experience in undergraduate…

Hariri, Hasan; Karwan, Dedy Hermanto; Haenilah, Een Yayah; Rini, Riswanti; Suparman, Ujang – European Journal of Educational Research, 2021
Despite being a popular research subject internationally, self-regulated learning is relatively under-investigated in the Indonesian context. This article examined student learning motivation and its use as an indicator to predict student learning strategies in an Indonesian school context. This article applied quantitative research design, with…

Eve Kikas; Gintautas Silinskas; Eliis Härma – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
The aim of this study was to examine which topic- and learning-related knowledge and motivational beliefs predict the use of specific deep-level learning strategies during an independent learning task. Participants included 335 Estonian fourth- and sixth-grade students who were asked to read about light processes and seasonal changes. The study…

Guterman, Oz; Neuman, Ari – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2022
In modern society, academic success is closely associated with achievement. In order to help students realise their potential, it is essential to understand the factors that promote academic success. The research literature indicates several factors that are associated with academic success, including learning strategies, self-direction, and…

Hilpert, Jonathan C.; Greene, Jeffrey A.; Bernacki, Matthew – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2023
Capturing evidence for dynamic changes in self-regulated learning (SRL) behaviours resulting from interventions is challenging for researchers. In the current study, we identified students who were likely to do poorly in a biology course and those who were likely to do well. Then, we randomly assigned a portion of the students predicted to perform…

Won, Sungjun; Hensley, Lauren C.; Wolters, Christopher A. – Journal of Experimental Education, 2021
Academic help-seeking is a self-regulatory strategy that can have an important influence on students' learning and achievement. The primary goal of the present study was to investigate whether college students' sense of belonging could be used to understand their academic help-seeking. In addition, two aspects of motivation, self-efficacy for…

Ali, Amira D.; Hanna, Wael K. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
With the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, many universities adopted a hybrid learning model as a substitute for a traditional one. Predicting students' performance in hybrid environments is a complex task because it depends on extracting and analyzing different types of data: log data, self-reports, and face-to-face interactions. Students must…
