• Influence of Teacher Support and Personal Relevance on Academic Self-Efficacy and Enjoyment of Mathematics Lessons: A Structural Equation Modeling Approach (2013, background): “Previous research has established that self-efficacy is a predictor of academic achievement (Bandura, 1997; Edman & Brazil, 2007; Gore, 2006; Hsieh et al. 2007; Tyler & Boelter, 2008) and influences academic motivation and learning (Adeyemo, 2007; Pajares, 1996).”
• Undergraduate Engineering Students’ Beliefs, Coping Strategies, and Academic Performance: An Evaluation of Theoretical Models (2012, background): “As researchers have suggested, students with higher self-efficacy tend to adopt more mastery goals for learning (Hsieh et al., 2007), and mastery goal oriented learners tend to feel more confident about completing a task successfully and use more self-regulatory strategies (Middleton & Midgley,…”
• Underachievement Among College Students (2009, background): “These poorer performing students were less likely to search out assistance in reversing their underachievement (Hsieh et al., 2007).”
