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…

Jennifer S. Feenstra; Chika Nwaelugo; Jessica Nibbelink; Andrew De Noble – Discover Education, 2024
Study skills are important for success in college. However, students may not be aware of or willing to use effective strategies such as spaced practice and self-testing. This replication-extension study of Susser and McCabe (Susser and McCabe in Instr Sci 41:345-363, 2013) supports their original findings regarding spaced practice and extends the…

Denise M. Sweeney – Research in Learning Technology, 2024
The ability to design effective technology-enhanced learning (TEL) experiences is a critical skill for university teachers. However, challenges endure on how best to develop university teachers in research-intensive universities to design TEL experiences that meet student, professional, and employer expectations. Having a greater insight of the…

O'Connor, Emily; Roy, Kevin; O'Hagan, Fergal; Brown, Elizabeth Campbell; Richard, Gisèle; Walsh, Ellyssa; Flynn, Alison – Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2023
We developed and launched an online, course-integrated module called Growth & Goals aimed to help students better develop evidence-based learning skills. The module focuses on five main concepts: self-regulated learning, goal-setting, metacognition, mindfulness, and mindsets (growth and fixed continuum). Growth & Goals is an open education…

Hyejoo Yun; Hae-Deok Song; YeonKyoung Kim – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2025
Self-regulated learning (SRL) is critical in online learning, and profiling learners' SRL patterns is needed to provide personalized support. However, little research has examined how each learner performs the cyclical phases of SRL based on trace data. To fill the gap, this study attempts to derive SRL profiles encompassing all cyclical phases of…

Fusilier, Marcelline; Bhuyan, Rafiqul; Russell, John; Lin, Shan; Yang, Shuai – Journal of Applied Research in Higher Education, 2022
Purpose: Student approaches to studying were explored in business courses with samples in China, Kuwait and the USA. Information on approaches to studying is critical as delivery and content of educational practices are increasingly adapted to different world regions. Design/methodology/approach: The Revised Approaches to Studying Inventory (RASI)…

Simone, Patricia M.; Whitfield, Lisa C.; Bell, Matthew C.; Kher, Pooja; Tamashiro, Taylor – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Much of the learning that college students engage in today occurs in unsupervised settings, making effective self-regulated learning techniques of particular importance. We examined the impact of task difficulty and supervision on whether participants would follow written instructions to use repeated testing over restudying. In Study 1, we found…

Chantal Olckers; Martha Harumavamwe – Review of Education, 2025
Most universities are facing a crisis of student wellbeing and high failure rates. Using the Conservation of Resources theory, we hypothesised that both study resources and personal resources (academic self-efficacy) could enhance task performance and improve wellbeing among university students. We conducted a cross-sectional study on 431…

Marloes Broeren; Peter Verkoeijen; Lidia Arends; Guus Smeets – Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2024
Effective cognitive learning strategies are beneficial for learning and long-term retention. However, higher education students often rely on surface-level strategies like reading and underlining. Interventions to support effective cognitive strategy use have addressed knowledge, beliefs, planning, and commitment. This latter aspect and its…

Zui Cheng; Zhuo Zhang; Qian Xu; Yukiko Maeda; Peidi Gu – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2025
Research on academic performance in online education proliferated in the last decade; however, our current understanding of the relationship between self-regulated learning and academic performance in online learning environments remains scattered. This meta-analysis provides a holistic view of the relationship between learners' use of…

Yaming Li; Jamalsafri Bin Saibon – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2025
Introduction: In higher education, the relationship between engagement in sports learning and intrinsic motivation is critical. Although sport benefits health and academic performance, its long-term motivational mechanisms remain unexplored. This study examines how intrinsic motivation influences sports participation, its trends, and its…

Rodriguez, Fernando; Kataoka, Sabrina; Janet Rivas, Mariela; Kadandale, Pavan; Nili, Amanda; Warschauer, Mark – Active Learning in Higher Education, 2021
Studies have demonstrated that utilizing spacing (spreading out study sessions at regular intervals) and self-testing strategies are optimal for learning. While some applied work has examined the relationship between these strategies on general academic achievement, there is still a need to explore how both spacing and self-testing are related to…

Nick Pilcher; Kendall Richards – Research in Post-Compulsory Education, 2025
Study Skills in any guise are integral to Higher Education worldwide, existing to help student success. Some argue generic or bolt-on Study Skills do not help with success, others that embedded Study Skills do, but no-one advocates actually evaluating Study Skills in a context of success defined as helping with student educational gain and…

Studies on learning strategies across cultures in higher education inform the internationalisation of teaching and learning. Previous comparisons relied on geographical generalisations (e.g., "Asian", "Western", "Latin-American") or only variable-centred methods, which can overgeneralise the contexts they represent.…
