"Given its significant negative consequences for university students, procrastination has been studied extensively and shown to be associated with conscientiousness as a personality trait. Involving 333 university students doing teacher training programmes (68.5% female; Mage=20.51 (SD=1.61); 83.48% undergraduates doing a bachelor’s degree), our study aimed to explore the association between procrastination among more/less conscientious students and selected self-concept variables (self-control, self-efficacy, etc.). Our questionnaire was based on the Ten-Item Personality Inventory (Gosling, Rentfrow, Swann, 2003), the Self-Control Scale (Finkenauer, Engels, Baumeister, 2005), the Self-efficacy Scale (Ko?š, Hefteyova, Schwarzer, Jerusalem, 1993), and the Procrastination Scale for Student Populations (Gabrhelík, 2008); our control variables were gender and well- being (Subjective Well-Being Scale, Chan-Hoong, Soon, 2011). The sample was divided into two groups – (1) less conscientious and (2) more conscientious) – using the method of visual binning in SPSS 20. A t-test for independent samples and linear regression were used for data analysis. The less conscientious students in our sample reported a higher level of procrastination (t=6.479; df=310; p?0.001; Cohen's d=0.681). A linear model was conducted for both groups (the dependent variable being the level of procrastination, the independent variables being gender and the levels of self-control, self-efficacy, and well-being). Both models were significant ((1) F=8.449; p?0.001; R2=32.6; (2) F= 7.277; p?0.001; R2=25.7). Among the less conscientious students, the levels of self-control (?=-0.546; t=-5.262; p?0.001) and self-efficacy (?=-0.238; t=-2.092; p?0.001) were negatively associated with procrastination. Among the more conscientious students, the level of self-control (?=0.404; t=-3.929; p?0.001) was negatively associated with procrastination and “being a man” (0–man; 1–woman) (?=-0.307; t=-3.219; p?0.05) was significantly associated with the level of procrastination. The results of our study show trait and personality differences in the level of procrastination, highlighting the importance of self-control and self-efficacy development among university students. Interactive programmes with an impact on students’ self-concept can be a significant contribution to students’ ability to cope with their study requirements effectively. It could be argued that the limits of this study include cross-sectional and self-reported data."

Past Experiences

The predictability of the evaluation of preparing for an oral examination by means of self-concept and self-esteem as well as optimism and self-efficacy was investigated in a sample of 49 university students. Self-concept was measured by Frankfurter Selbstkonzeptskalen, self-esteem by the 16PF-O scale, personal optimism, social optimism, and self-efficacy by Fragebogen für Personalen Optimismus und Sozialen Optimismus—Erweitert, and the evaluation of the preparation by a self-report sheet. Data were collected 5 wk. before the examination. The self-report sheet was given again one week before the examination. Significant correlations of self-report scores with self-concept scores as well as 16PF-O scores representing past experiences were found for the first assessment. The correlations with personal optimism scores and self-efficacy scores representing expectations were also significant for the second assessment.

La presencia de la actividad física-deportiva en la vida social, ha llevado a las Ciencias Sociales a estudiar este fenómeno desde lo social, lo económico y lo cultural; aportando así a las disciplinas de las áreas biológica y de la salud. El objetivo de esta investigación fue traducir al español, adaptar y validar en el escenario mexicano el cuestionario de autoeficacia para regular el ejercicio de Bandura en estudiantes universitarios. La muestra del estudio fue de 241 estudiantes de Psicología (60.2%) y de Trabajo Social (39.8%) de una universidad pública en el noroeste de México, elegidos a través de un muestreo no probabilístico, de los cuales 88% fueron mujeres. El 30.3% de la muestra cursaba el segundo semestre, 24.1% tercer semestre, 15.4% cuarto semestre, 17.4% quinto semestre, 1.7% sexto semestre y 11.2% séptimo semestre, al momento de la aplicación. En los resultados el análisis factorial confirmatorio (AFC) reveló adecuados valores de bondad de ajuste teórica y práctica. El factor de autoeficacia para regular el ejercicio quedó conformado por siete variables manifiestas. El análisis de consistencia interna posterior al AFC arrojó un alfa de .84. Se puede concluir que la versión en español del cuestionario de autoeficacia para regular el ejercicio adaptada al contexto mexicano con estudiantes universitarios, es un instrumento fiable y válido que puede aplicarse a muestras similares. Abstract. The presence of physical-sports activity in social life has led social sciences to studying this phenomenon from a social, economic, and cultural point of view, contributing to the disciplines of biological and health areas. The purpose of this research was to translate, adapt, and validate the questionnaire for self-efficacy to regulate the practice of Bandura in university students from a Mexican context. The participants were 241 students (88% women) enrolled in the psychology (60.2%) and social work programs (39.8%) from a public university in northwestern Mexico. Participants were chosen through non-probabilistic sampling. They were divided among the following semesters: 30.3% in second semester, 24.1% in third semester, 15.4% in fourth semester, 17.4% fifth semester, 1.7% sixth semester, and 11.4% in seventh semester at the time of the application. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) revealed values of goodness of theoretical and practical adjustment. The self-efficacy factor to regulate exercise was composed by seven manifest variables. The internal consistency analysis after the CFA yielded an alpha of .84. It can be concluded that the Spanish version of the questionnaire of self-efficacy to regulate exercise adapted to a Mexican context with university students, is a reliable and valid instrument that can be applied to similar participants or contexts.

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.

In the present study, aims were (1) to determine gender differences in self-compassion, self-efficacy, and control belief for learning and (2) to examine the relationships between self-compassion, self-efficacy, and control belief for learning. Participants were 390 university students who completed a questionnaire package that included the Self-Compassion Scale, the Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Control Belief for Learning Scale. Results showed that there were no significant gender differences in self-compassion, self-efficacy, and control belief for learning. In correlation analysis, self-kindness correlated positively with self-efficacy and control belief for learning; self-judgment had a negative correlation with self-efficacy. Awareness of common humanity had positive correlations with self-efficacy and control belief for learning, and had negative correlations with self-judgment. On the other hand, isolation was associated negatively with self-efficacy and self-kindness, and positively with self-judgment. Mindfulness related positively to self-efficacy, and control belief for learning, and it was negatively related to self-judgment and isolation. Finally, it was found that over-identification had a negative correlation with self-efficacy and self-kindness, but positive correlations with self-judgment and isolation.
