Effective second language (L2) writing hinges on both learners' beliefs in their writing capabilities (self-efficacy) and their engagement in writing tasks. However, to date, no study has explored the association between these two important factors within an L2 writing context. Therefore, this study aims to examine how L2 writing self-efficacy…

This research delves into the factors that shape Chinese college students' engagement with Generative AI (GenAI) for career exploration purposes, employing the lenses of the Comprehensive Model of Information Seeking (CMIS) and the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Utilizing a mixed-methods design, which integrates partial least squares…

This study investigates the relationship between undergraduates' technological readiness, self-efficacy, attitude, and usage of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The study leverages the technology acceptance model (TAM) to explore the relationships among the study's variables. The study's participants are 176 undergraduate students from a public…

Several key factors have emerged from the literature contributing to the explanation of STEM participation (or lack of), including mathematics mindset, mathematics anxiety, mathematics identity, and mathematics self-efficacy. Despite the research on the relations of these variables to career interest, few studies have integrated them and examined…

There is limited research regarding university students' academic achievement and what influences it. We argue that university students' academic achievement could be influenced by different factors to those observed for schoolchildren. We investigated whether university students' beliefs about intelligence ('implicit theories'), self-efficacy and…

Background: Students' perceptions of learning environment is known as the most frequent construct related to their learning outcomes. Students' motivation in learning science (i.e. personal mastery goals orientation, self-efficacy, and task-value) and self-regulation are among the outcome variables that are affected by their perceptions of science…

This study aims to assess the impacts of three components from Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) on Entrepreneurial intention and analyze the mediating effects of these three components in the relationship between Entrepreneurial education and Entrepreneurial intention and in the relationship between Self-Efficacy and Entrepreneurial intention…

This study examined the effects of a technology-enhanced intervention on the self-regulation of 262 eighth-grade students, employing information and communication technology (ICT) and web-based self-assessment tools set against science learning. The data were analyzed using Bayesian structural equation modeling to unravel the intricate…

The aim of this study was investigated the relationship between preservice science teachers' 21st century learner and teacher skills and their science learning self-efficacy beliefs. The research method used was the correlational research method, one of the quantitative research methods. The sample of the study was consisting of 318 preservice…

The key objective of this study was to reveal the key factors that impact university students' continued usage intentions with respect to Learning Management Systems (LMSs). Given the context-dependent nature of e-learning, the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model was applied and extended with constructs principally…

Automated writing evaluation (AWE) has been used increasingly to provide feedback on student writing. Previous research typically focused on its inter-rater reliability with human graders and validation frameworks. The limited body of research has only discussed students' attitudes or perceptions in general. A systematic investigation of the…

Many research indicated that more and more students choose to drop out of mathematics-related subjects during university study, especially in the western context. Besides the difficulty of mathematics content, first-year university students also face issues of the transition period. Identifying the impact of first-year university students' belief…

While research has shown that students' epistemic beliefs can be a strong predictor of their academic performance, cognitive abilities, or self-efficacy, studies of this topic in computer education are rare. The purpose of this study was twofold. First, it aimed to validate a newly developed questionnaire for measuring students' epistemic beliefs…

Inquiry-based practices have important impacts on student science learning outcomes, yet the psychological mechanisms behind the relationships are less clear. This study aimed to explore the mediating effects of science attitudes in the relationship between student-perceived inquiry-based practices and scientific literacy using data from eight…

This research focused on the potential of project-based learning and blended learning, which offer a distinctive cross-point in regard to building 21st-century skills in the classroom. Specifically, this research hypothesized that using the BPBL approach has an effect on perceived self-efficacy, perceived enjoyment, perceived usefulness,…
