Developing a Structural Model of Academic Incompatibility Based on Educational Injustice, Burnout, Academic Fraud, and Student Self-Efficacy

The purpose of this study was to develop a structural model of academic maladjustment based on educational injustice, burnout, academic deception and lack of self-efficacy. The research method was correlation in the form of structural equation modeling. The statistical population consisted of all students of Bu Ali Sina University in Hamadan in the academic year 1396-97. Measurement tools included Golparvar Educational Justice Questionnaire (2010), academic burnout of Bresu et al. (1998), Golparvar Academic Satisfaction Questionnaire (2010), Eun & Freeman Self-efficacy Questionnaire (2001), Baker and Seriak Academic Adaptation Questionnaire (1984). Research data were analyzed using structural equation modeling through AMOS statistical software. The results showed that the structural equation modeling of the relationships between educational injustice, inefficiency, burnout and academic deception has a good fit in explaining academic maladjustment. These findings suggest that controlling educational injustice can be an effective and useful step in reducing burnout, deception, inefficiency, and academic maladjustment.
