Research suggests that mental contrasting with implementation intentions (MCII) enhances commitment and goal attainment. However, most studies have used limited comparison conditions. The present study compared MCII against two other potentially effective approaches: autonomous planning (AP), and solution-focused planning (SFP). It was thought…

Research and practice in the use of social networks for educational purposes have indicated the potential of Facebook as an online supplementary learning platform. Yet, empirical evidence regarding students' perception and acceptance of Facebook remains limited. This study adopts an exploratory sequential mixed methods design to understand factors…
