Goal Characteristics

The aim of the research was to explore the correlations among the perceived characteristics of the academic goal (the grade that a student set himself to achieve) during the semester, as well as the correlations with the obtained grade. The university students (N = 31) participated on the research. Their perceptions of motivation, self-efficacy, commitment, desirability, attainability, effort, progress and action crisis were collected by short scales 1. in the goal setting, 2. after passing the credit test and 3. 24hours before the exam. After passing the exam, the grade and the fulfillment of the goal were also collected. Only the higher desirability after passing the partial goal (after the credit test) was associated with the worse grade. However, the students had set the worse grades than they finally obtained. Correlations among the goal characteristics confirmed the findings of other studies. The correlations among the previous and the upcoming goal characteristics have shown the importance of the initial “want to” motivation, desirability and attainability. The crisis was correlated with low attainability, low progress and with previous crisis and “have to” motivation.

The rise of hoaxes circulating on social media makes students as active social media users vulnerable to distribute hoaxes. The study used the model of information behavior by Wilson (1996) to examine information behaviors of university students in combating hoaxes on social media. Using a qualitative method, data collection was conducted through focus groups discussions with 14 students of Syiah Kuala University. The results showed that the information behaviors performed by the university students were not adequate to combat hoaxes. The critical attitude by not easily trusting information on social media was not accompanied by sufficient will and abilities to verify information they received from social media. Information dissemination behavior without verification was also found in this study. The results of this study also indicated that passive attention and search were the most dominant information behaviors among students. The results also showed that low self-efficacy encourage students to be reluctant and difficult to conduct information searches for verification. This study suggested that the model of information behaviour by Wilson (1996) was relevant to discuss students’ information behavior to combat hoaxes on social media. These findings are important to develop a social media literacy model for university students to fight against hoaxes on social media. Maraknya hoaks yang beredar di media sosial menjadikan mahasiswa sebagai pengguna media sosial aktif rentan menjadi penyebar hoaks. Penelitian menggunakan model perilaku informasi oleh Wilson (1996) untuk melihat perilaku informasi mahasiswa dalam menghadapi hoaks di media sosial. Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif, pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan focus groups discussion terhadap 14 orang mahasiswa Universitas Syiah Kuala. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perilaku informasi mahasiswa dalam menghadapi hoaks belum mumpuni. Sikap kritis dengan tidak mudah mempercayai informasi di media sosial, ternyata tidak disertai kemauan dan kemampuan verifikasi informasi yang memadai. Perilaku penyebaran informasi tanpa verifikasi juga masih ditemukan. Hasil studi ini juga mengindikasikan bahwa perilaku perhatian dan pencarian pasif adalah perilaku yang paling dominan di kalangan mahasiswa. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa self-efficacy yang rendah menyebabkan mahasiswa enggan dan sulit melakukan pencarian informasi untuk verifikasi. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa model perilaku informasi oleh Wilson (1996) relevan untuk membahas perilaku informasi mahasiswa dalam menghadapi hoaks di media sosial. Hasil studi ini penting untuk mengembangkan model literasi media sosial di kalangan mahasiswa untuk menangkal hoaks.

This study aimed at reporting differences in terms of the university students’ TOEFL self-efficacy in the test skill and the English skills tested in TOEFL namely listening, structure, and reading. In conducting the study, the explanatory sequential mixed method was used as the study design, where the quantitative data from the survey was conducted first followed by the follow-up interview as the qualitative data. To collect the data in this study, a specifically designed self-efficacy questionnaire of TOEFL was distributed to the total sample of 200 university students across different disciplines from Syiah Kuala University and the University of Serambi Mekkah. The interview was then conducted with 3 selected students to have a deeper understanding of the study result. In terms of the data analysis, one-way ANOVA and t-test were used to describe the quantitative data, while the qualitative data was described and elaborated in words with detailed explanations. The result showed that there was a significant difference among the test skill and the English skills in TOEFL, where F= 13.61 (3, 796), p<0.05. The result also revealed that within the gender, only reading skill had a significant difference, where t198= -2.003, p <. 005, and within the language course participation, all the test skills and TOEFL skills were significantly different as the p-value of each skill was smaller than .005 (p< .005).

Abstract.SELF-EFFICACY IN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE DEGREE IN PRIMARY EDUCATION AND SCIENCE DEGREESThere are many contexts in which the emotions, and the smart use of them, are necessary for the full development of the person. But without a doubt, and relative to the field in which we find ourselves, emotional competencies play a very important role in education. We must bear in mind that emotions have a very important role in learning and is currently considered that the cognitive configures the affective and emotional the cognitive. Learn how influences the affective domain in university students and teachers in initial training is a matter of great importance to teacher training and the education system Through the use of a quantitative method, and more particularly of a cross-sectional design, the objective our study was to evaluate the level of self-efficacy in a sample of 358 students of the Grade of Elementary Master and Science Grades of the University of Extremadura by adaptation of Sanjuan, Perez and Bermudez (2000) of the scale of General self-efficacy of Baessler and Schwarzer (1996). The results confirm that there were significant differences in self-efficacy level according to the degree in which it students are enrolled.Keywords: self-efficacy, emotions, university students, initial teacher education, teaching science.Resumen.Son numerosos los contextos en los que las emociones, y el uso inteligente de las mismas, son necesarias para el desarrollo íntegro de la persona. Pero sin duda alguna, y en relación al campo en el que nosotros nos encontramos, las competencias emocionales juegan un papel muy importante en la educación. Debemos tener en cuenta que las emociones tienen un papel muy importante en el aprendizaje y actualmente se considera que lo cognitivo configura lo afectivo y lo afectivo lo cognitivo. Conocer cómo influye el dominio afectivo en los estudiantes universitarios y en el profesorado en formación inicial es un tema de gran importancia para la formación docente y el sistema educativo. Mediante una metodología cuantitativa, y más concretamente a partir de un diseño transversal, en nuestra investigación se pretende evaluar el nivel de autoeficacia en una muestra constituida por 358 estudiantes del Grado de Maestro en Educación y Grados en Ciencias de la Universidad de Extremadura mediante adaptación de Sanjuán, Pérez y Bermúdez (2000) de la Escala de Autoeficacia General de Baessler y Schwarzer (1996). Los resultados obtenidos permitieron afirmar que existen diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el nivel autoeficacia según el grado en el que se encuentran matriculados los estudiantes universitarios.Palabras clave: autoeficacia, emociones, estudiantes universitarios, maestros en formación inicial, enseñanza de las ciencias.

Abstract. The main purpose of this research is to know whether there is connection between self efficacy academic and social support parents with self adaptation of University Students. The research subject was 100 University Nusantara PGRI Kediri students consisting of 42 boys and 58 girls which was taken random and having caractesistis of the first grade of the University students and staying together with their own parents. The data of the self adaptation of the University students was obtained from the scale of self actualization. The data of the scale self efficiacy academic was also obtained from the scale of self efficacy academic. The data of social support parents was received from the scale of social support parents. The resulf of this analysis of multiple regression are from maximum R = 0,684; F = 42,717; p = 0,000 (p < 0,01). The resulf of this data analysis showing that the self efficacy academic and social support are integrated to self adaptation of the University students. The result of the analysis academic self efficacy correlation with self actualization of the University students was obtained r partial = 0,632; t = 8, 039 with p = 0,000 (p < 0,01). This data shows that there is positive correlation between academic self efficacy and self actualization. The hypothesis of the research classifying that there is correlation between them and it is acceptable. The out come of the analysis social support parents correlation with self adaption of the University students was attained r partial = 0,159; t = 1,582 with p = 0,117 (p > 0,05). This data indicates that the variable of the social support is isolated and it is not related to the self adaptation. The hypothesis of the research indicates that there is positive connection between social support and self actualization and there fore it is unacceptable or avoided. This is because of another factor that influences self adaptation of the University students a part from social support of the parents. Key word: Self adaptation, Self efficacy academic, Sosial support parents.
