CERVANTES ARREOLA, Diana Irasema; VALADEZ SIERRA, María Dolores; VALDES CUERVO, Angel Alberto e TANORI QUINTANA, Jesús. Differences in academic self-efficacy, psychological wellbeing and achievement drive in university students with high and low academic performance. Psicol. caribe [online]. 2018, vol.35, n.1, pp.7-17. ISSN 0123-417X.
The purpose of the study is to determine the differences in perception of academic selfefficacy, psychological well-being and motivation to academic achievement in college students with high and low academic performance. From a sample of 495 college students, 60 were identified with high performance (M = 9.67, SD = .10 grade point average) and 60 underperforming (M = 8.17, SD = .18 grade point average). The results of logistic regression test suggest that academic self-efficacy (OR = 2.52) and motivation to related achievement with expertise (OR = 4.98) are positively associated with the high-performance students´ membership, while the psychological well-being in social relations does so negatively. It is concluded that self-efficacy and achievement orientation promote academic achievement and that wellbeing is not a variable related to this type of performance.
