Learning Strategies, Performance Indicators and University Student Satisfaction: What Can Psychosocial Variables Tell Us?
By Nerina J Caltabiano, Marie L. Caltabiano, Agnes Au
Overview
The research papers collected in University Student Satisfaction: What can Psychosocial Variables Tell Us? are pioneering contributions to understanding what leads to student satisfaction in a university setting. The papers provide insights into:
• Why students persevere with their studies
• Self-efficacy and coping styles that students engage in,
• The role that locus of control, self-efficacy and trait hope play in student satisfaction,
• Time management issues,
• Study and employment management.
These investigations result in significant research findings and highlight some of the issues that confront students and what areas could be a focus to improve student satisfaction during their time at tertiary institutions.
