BARRERA HERNANDEZ, Laura Fernanda et al. Cognitive Variables of University Students: their Relationship with Dedication to Study and Academic Performance. Psicumex [online]. 2020, vol.10, n.1, pp.61-74.  Epub 09-Dez-2020. ISSN 2007-5936.  https://doi.org/10.36793/psicumex.v10i1.342.

This research aimed to empirically test a model to explain the dedication to study and academic performance through cognitive variables of university students, such as self-regulation, future orientation, and learning strategies. One hundred eighty-seven students from a university in southern Mexico participated. The proposed model predicted that future orientation, self-regulation, and learning strategies would influence the dedication to study and the academic performance of students. Such model was tested through structural equations modeling; their results showed goodness of fit, so the data support the proposed relationships. The relevance lies in its integrative nature since the majority of research has measured this relationship through isolated correlations between variables.

Palavras-chave : self-regulation; future orientation; learning strategies; study dedication; academic performance.
