Yuli Yanti

Despite the central role of social skills in students’ academic and interpersonal success, few studies have examined how internal psychological traits such as resilience and self-control jointly influence these skills in primary education. This study addresses that gap by investigating the influence of resilience and self-control on elementary students’ social skills. Employing a quantitative correlational design, the research involved 240 students from grades IV to VI selected through total sampling. Data were collected through closed questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. Instrument validity and reliability were tested using SmartPLS version 4.0.9.9, and analysis was conducted with IBM SPSS version 29.0.0.0. Classical assumption tests confirmed the data met normality, multicollinearity, and homoscedasticity criteria. Results indicated that both resilience and self-control had significant and positive effects on social skills, with self-control being the stronger predictor. The model explained 22.5% of the variance in social skills. These findings underscore the need to cultivate students’ internal strengths as part of socio-emotional learning and contribute to the refinement of character education in primary education settings.

This research examines the impact of parental engagement on children’s academic development. Parental involvement is conceptualized through three primary dimensions: attendance at school-related meetings, provision of educational support within the home environment, and active participation in school-based activities. The study seeks to investigate how these facets of involvement influence students’ academic performance, aiming to test a set of predetermined hypotheses through a structured questionnaire-based survey. To assess the interrelationships among the variables, the study utilizes the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) technique. The analytical model delineates the association between parental engagement and students’ scholastic achievement, while also illustrating the influence of structured learning processes and the underlying factors driving parental involvement on academic outcomes. Furthermore, anecdotal evidence pertaining to students’ academic attainment substantiates the theoretical framework, emphasizing the interconnected roles of parental involvement, academic performance, and the mediating function of students’ self-regulated learning capabilities. The findings of this research are anticipated to yield valuable insights for enhancing educational outcomes. The primary aim is to investigate the determinants of parental involvement and its effect on academic achievement, with a specific focus on the mediating role of students’ self-regulatory learning skills, as assessed through the PLS-SEM methodology.

Mazaya Ishma Karamina, Tari Ariska

This study explores the role of Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) and Epistemological Beliefs (EB) in influencing students' English language proficiency in Indonesian universities. Using a quantitative research design, data were gathered from 246 students through validated questionnaires, including the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) and the Epistemological Beliefs Questionnaire (EBQ). The results of multiple regression analysis show that both SRL and EB significantly affect English ability. Students with higher levels of self-regulation and more advanced epistemological beliefs demonstrated better performance in reading, writing, speaking, and listening. These findings highlight that English proficiency is influenced not only by cognitive factors but also by motivational and metacognitive elements. The study emphasizes the need to integrate self-regulation strategies and the development of epistemological beliefs into English language instruction. This research contributes to learner-centered education by providing insights into how internal factors can support more effective English learning outcomes.

Siti Maesaroh, Anggis Bernadeta, Alina Ria Citra

This study examines the interaction between self-efficacy, self-regulated learning, and English language anxiety among secondary school and university students in Cirebon, West Java. The urgency of this research lies in the high levels of English language anxiety, which negatively affect students’ learning performance. Using path analysis on data from 289 participants, the results show that self-regulated learning significantly mediates the relationship between self-efficacy and English language anxiety (indirect effect = 0.281, p < 0.05). The model accounts for 31.5% of the variance in English language anxiety (R² = 0.315). These findings highlight the crucial role of self-regulation and metacognitive strategies in reducing anxiety and enhancing learning effectiveness. This research supports the need for intervention programs that strengthen self-efficacy and self-regulated learning, particularly within the local educational and cultural context of Cirebon. Further studies are recommended to explore other contextual factors more deeply.
