This study is significant as it seeks to establish the connection between the digital literacy levels of pre-service teachers and their teacher identities while also examining the mediating role of mobile learning in this relationship. Additionally, it explores the impact of pre-service teachers' digital literacy and learning motivations on their…

Students involve themselves in learning activities multidimensionally, including behaviorally, cognitively, emotionally, and agentically. This multidimensional involvement predicts important outcomes, but it is also possible that each type of engagement might have its own specialized purpose or function. To investigate this possibility, we…

Learners' attempts to regulate their own motivation for studying in the face of tedious or difficult tasks is an important aspect of self-regulated learning. Therefore, motivation regulation has received increasing attention over the past few years, resulting in numerous publications using different definitions of the construct, samples,…

Background: The purported reciprocity between motivation and academic achievement in education has largely been supported by correlational data. Aims: Our first aim was to determine experimentally whether motivation and achievement are reciprocally related. The second objective was to investigate a potential behavioural mediation pathway between…

In this meta-analysis, we examined the average correlations (weighted for sample size and corrected for measurement error) between the varied types of motivation specified within self-determination theory (SDT) and second language (L2) achievement. We also conducted moderator analyses to explore whether these relationships are influenced by age,…

This study investigated multilevel models of homework time management involving Chinese middle school students. At the individual level, homework time management was positively associated with arranging the environment, monitoring motivation, time on homework, and teacher and parent autonomy support. Additionally, homework time management was…

Although the Community of Inquiry is a widely used instructional model for online and blended learning, there is a lack of comprehensive research on its effects on learner motivation. This study examines the relationship between CoI presences--teaching presence, social presence, and cognitive presence--and autonomous motivation in blended…

The study aims to probe the roles of learning desire and persistence in influencing Gen Z learners' continuance intention of using YouTube for learning in digital learning context. Building upon prior research, a research framework with 10 hypotheses was proposed and empirically tested by using Partial Least Squares Structure Equation Modelling…

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…

Academic and practitioner interest in data science has increased considerably. Yet scholarly understanding of what motivates students to learn data science is still limited. Drawing on the theory of planned behavior, we propose a research model to examine the determinants of behavioral intentions to learn data science. In the proposed research…

Objective: The first objective of this research was to investigate the interrelationships of regulatory focus (i.e. promotion and prevention) and the ability to direct attention when studying. The second was to examine whether unobserved groups of individuals having distinct combinations of regulatory focus and directing attention differed on…

Student academic procrastination has been established as a strong predictor of several unfavorable consequences such as poor academic performance, low academic self-efficacy, and negative emotional experience. Increasing knowledge on what variables affect academic procrastination can assist nurturers and educators in minimizing student academic…

Science learning takes place not only in the context of science class but also after class. Students' internal forms of motivation, such as curiosity and interest, affect the entire science learning process in both in-class and after-class contexts. In addition, both stable existing learner characteristics, such as science curiosity and interest…

Research into second language acquisition (SLA) has shown that individual difference (ID) variables can be strong predictors of language achievement (e.g., Dornyei, 2003; Skehan, 2003). Traditionally, this research conceptualized ID variables as static and monolithic variables (e.g., Dornyei, 2010). More recently scholars have questioned this…

The aim of this study was to adapt the Tuckman Procrastination Scale for use with Azerbaijani adolescents and explore the relationships between procrastination, academic motivation and self-efficacy. Data were obtained from 718 adolescents in Azerbaijan whose ages ranged from 10 to 18 years (M = 13.61, SD = 1.86) through convenience sampling. As…
