This study investigates the correlation between morphological awareness and reading comprehension. It was conducted with a sample of 55 second-grade students from SMA (Senior High School) Laboratorium Unsyiah, Banda Aceh. The data measuring morphological awareness and reading comprehension were collected through a test of morphological awareness and the Florida comprehensive assessment test (FCAT) respectively. The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient was determined using SPSS 20 software to explore the relationship between these variables. Based on the findings, the result from morphological awareness test showed that 85% of the students managed to answer the test satisfactorily. It was also revealed that the students were on reading Achievement Level 4. This indicates that the students answered many questions correctly, but they seemed to be troubled by questions with more challenging contents. The results also show that there was a significant relationship between morphological awareness and reading comprehension. The correlation was found to be 0.527, with a significance level of 0.01, which is classified as a moderate-level correlation. Finally, the findings of this study suggest the inclusion of morphological awareness while learning reading comprehension at schools.

Background and Objective: Rational, emotional, and behavioral skills include self-awareness, as well as critical and creative thinking, which assist individuals in acquiring a deeper understanding of their personality, weaknesses, strengths, emotions, values, and identity. The present research aimed to compare the effect of the rational-emotional theory and strict discipline on rational, emotional, and behavioral skills among high school second-grade students. Materials and Methods: The current study was conducted based on a pre and post-test design on three groups, including one control and two test groups. The statistical population consisted of 90 male second-grade high school students in Tehran during 2019-2020. The G*Power software was used to calculate the sample size. A number of 75 second-grade students were recruited for this study via the convenient sampling method. After that, the participants were assigned to three groups of 25 students. A self-made questionnaire of life skills, similar to Saatchi, Kamkar, and Askarian, was employed for data collection. Fifteen experts in curriculum planning confirmed the internal and external validity of the questionnaire. Moreover, its reliability was confirmed, rendering a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.92. The data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 21) using multi-variant analysis of the covariance and Scheffe's Post Hoc test. Results: Based on the results, the rational-emotional method had a more significant effect on students' rational (F=11.56, P<0.001), emotional (F=20.33, P<0.001), and behavioral skills (F=16.67, P<0.001), compared to the strict discipline. Conclusions: It can be concluded that life skill training through rational-emotional theory brings about a marked increase in students' rational, behavioral, and emotional skills. Nevertheless, the strict discipline method revealed no significant association between training students on life skills and increased rational, behavioral, and emotional skills.

Abstract Objectives Self-efficacy is the belief a person has regarding his success in completing a task. A high level of self-efficacy can affect one’s thoughts and motivation to complete tasks well. Conversely, someone with low self-efficacy has a tendency to avoid difficult tasks. Self-efficacy can play a role in success in the future. This study aimed to develop a self-efficacy model for junior and senior high school students based on religious and family determinants. Method This study used a cross-sectional design and simple sampling technique. The calculation result involved 158 samples. The independent variables were religious and family determinants. The dependent variable was self-efficacy. The data were collected using a questionnaire that was tested for validity and reliability. The analysis used a multiple linear regression test with a significance level of α ≤ 0.05. Results The results showed self-efficacy was effectively determined by religion, communication, bonding and parenting factors. Overall, religion had the greatest role in influencing self-efficacy. Bonding and communication had an indirect effect on self-efficacy through parenting factors mediators. Conclusion Parenting factors influence self-efficacy indirectly through bonding and communication; however, parenting factors cannot be ignored. Religion was the biggest determinant of self-efficacy and capital of good self-control and strong conviction in completing tasks and achieving goals.
