The findings showed that academic self-efficacy predicted significantly intrinsic motivation (β = .52, p< .001), extrinsic motivation (β= -.16, p< .001), and academic procrastination (β = -.36, p< .001). Emotional self-efficacy could also predict significantly intrinsic motivation (β = .14, p< .001) and academic procrastination (β = -.13, p< .001).

The statistical population of this quasi-experimental studyincluded all female high school students in Tabriz in the academic year 2020-2021 that 60 students were selected using multi-stage cluster sampling and randomly assigned to three groups (20 for each group). All three groups completed the Tuan &amp; etal (2005) Motivation towards science learning questionnaire as a pre-test and at the end of eight sessions of 60-90 minutes of 5E training model (two sessions per week for 4 weeks) and eight 60-90 minute sessions of Gane training model (two sessions per week for 4 weeks), the mentioned questionnaire was completed by the groups. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis of covariance . Both 5E and Gane educational models have a significant effect on the academic motivation of second year female students (p&lt;0.001); However, the 5E educational model has a greater effect on increasing academic motivation than the Gane educational model (p&lt;0.001). Considering the superiority of the effect of 5E educational model on promoting students' academic motivation, the use of this teaching model is recommended; Therefore, the importance of holding training courses in this teaching method should be explained to teachers.

        This research was conducted to determine the causal relationships of variables that have most effect on academic self-handicapping in the university students of Tehran. The population was the university students of Tehran that 520 people were selected from the universities of Allameh Tabataba&rsquo;i, Tehran, south branch of Payam-e-Noor &amp; south branch of Islamic Azad through voluntary sampling. The research tools was include the NEO-FFI, perfectionism Multidimensional Questionnaire, General self-efficacy Questionnaire, classroom motivational scale, Jones &amp; Rhodewalt academic self-handicapping Questionnaire, Rosenberg self-esteem Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using structural equations modeling. The findings provided a robust support for the hypothesized structural relationships and show that personality traits, perfectionism, self-esteem, academic performance and academic motivation could directly affect academic self-handicapping and self-efficacy could indirectly affect academic self-handicapping with the mediating effects of academic performance. Also personality traits and perfectionism could indirectly affect academic self-handicapping with the mediating effects of academic performance and academic motivation. With the increase in neuroticism and by reducing the openness experience, academic self-handicapping will likely emerge and also high level of&nbsp; self-esteem, self-efficacy and academic motivation Will lead to lower levels of academic self-handicapping but high level of perfectionism and academic performance Increases the academic self-handicapping behaviors.

        The purpose of the present study was to investigate the students' academic motivation based on teachers' feedback, considering the mediating role of students' mentality. The study was applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-correlational terms of implementation within the framework of structural equation modeling. The statistical population was 380 people numbers from the female students of the first secondary school of Mashhad, who were selected as a sample by the multi_stage cluster method and using the Morgan's table. Data collection tools was a questionnaire designed by the researcher to assess teacher' feedback based on the model of Butler and Wayne and Farar et al, students' mentality questionnaire from Katamiso and Lu and academic motivation questionnaire from Harter. SPSS and AMOS software were used for data analysis. The results showed that effort-oriented and ability-oriented feedback can investigate academic motivation both directly and by mediating students' mindsets. In addition, the results showed that growth mindset and static mindset were directly related to academic motivation. When teachers see students as hard-working people and give them this attitude in the form of feedback, it affects their mentality, and as a result, by creating a growing mindset about their abilities and feelings, they motivate them more academically.

        The purpose of this study was to compare academic motivation, social competence and academic identity of children of single-parent families and nuclear families. Using purposive sampling method, this cross-sectional study was carried out on 50 children of single-parent families and 50 children of nuclear families who were homogeneous in terms of their age. The study made use of the inventory of school motivation (ISM) (McInerney &amp; Sinclair, 1992), adolescent multidimensional social competence questionnaire (AMSC-Q) (G&oacute;mez-Ortiz &amp; et al., 2017) and academic identity status questionnaire (AISQ) (Wass &amp; Isaacson, 2008). In this study, Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used for data analysis. The results of multivariate analysis of variance showed that there is a difference between academic motivation, social competence and academic identity among children of single-parent families and nuclear families. In this way, the children of single-parent families have lower scores in academic motivation, social competence and academic identity (achievement) than the children of nuclear families. The results also show that children of single-parent families have higher scores in academic identity (moratorium, diffusion and foreclose) than children of nuclear families. These results have important implications for family structure for their children's academic functions. Accordingly, educational psychologists and educational counselors can benefit from the results of the present study to improve the educational problems of single-parent children. Manuscript profile
