The Model of Self-regulated Learning strategies in Mathematics based on Motivational and Mediating Factors of Academic Emotions

This study investigated the hypothetical model of self-regulated learning strategies in the subject of mathematics based on motivational and mediating factors of academic emotions. In order to test this model, 395 of male students from among those in the five districts of Tabriz were selected using the cluster multistep sampling method and completed the questionnaire of self-regulated learning and achievement emotions. The data were analyzed by means of the route analysis statistical method. Results suggested that there is a significant relation between task value and the strategies founded on deep and superficial learning. There relation between self-efficacy and deep and superficial learning strategies is positive and significant. There relation between task and self-efficacy and positive emotions is positive and significant and the one between task and self-efficacy and negative emotions is negative and significant. Findings indicate there is no significant relation between negative emotions and deep learning strategies, whereas there is a significant relation between negative emotions and superficial learning. In the end, the research results suggest that positive emotions are related to the learners’ tendency to deep and superficial learning strategies.
