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…

Vosniadou, Stella; Darmawan, Igusti; Lawson, Michael J.; Van Deur, Penny; Jeffries, David; Wyra, Mirella – Metacognition and Learning, 2021
The research investigated relationships amongst beliefs about the self-regulation of learning (SRL), study strategies and academic performance in 366 pre-service teachers. A Beliefs about Learning and Teaching (BALT) Questionnaire was used to examine beliefs that were both consistent and inconsistent with SRL. The final model emerging from the…

Modrek, Anahid S.; Ramirez, Gerardo – Metacognition and Learning, 2021
Individual differences in self-regulation have been a topic of increased empirical research. However, few investigations have been conducted on how sub-components of self-regulation differentially predict education outcomes over time. We examined cognitive and behavior regulation as predictors of middle-school students' (n = 127) long-term…

van der Graaf, Joep; Lim, Lyn; Fan, Yizhou; Kilgour, Jonathan; Moore, Johanna; Gaševic, Dragan; Bannert, Maria; Molenaar, Inge – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Self-regulated learning (SRL) has been linked to improved learning and corresponding learning outcomes. However, there is a need for more precise insights into how SRL during learning contributes to specific learning outcomes. We operationalised four learning outcomes that varied on two dimensions: structure/connectedness and level/deepness of…

Ben-Eliyahu, Adar; Linnenbrink-Garcia, Lisa – Metacognition and Learning, 2015
An integrative framework for investigating self-regulated learning situated in students' favorite and least favorite courses was empirically tested in a sample of 178 high school and 280 college students. Building on cognitive, clinical, social, and educational conceptions of self-regulation, the current paper integrated affective (e.g.,…

College Students' Homework and Academic Achievement: The Mediating Role of Self-Regulatory Beliefs
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kitsantas, Anastasia; Zimmerman, Barry J. – Metacognition and Learning, 2009
The influence of homework experiences on students' academic grades was studied with 223 college students. Students' self-efficacy for learning and perceived responsibility beliefs were included as mediating variables in this research. The students' homework influenced their achievement indirectly via these two self-regulatory beliefs as well as…
