RESUMO
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the Self-Regulated Learning behaviors of advanced Brazilian and Portuguese musicians and how these processes vary in terms of gender, nationality, musical instrument, quantity of practice, expertise, and professional experience. Methods: 300 participants fully completed the 22-item questionnaire "Attitudes in music practice". The sample comprised of 54.3% males, 44.0% females, and 1% non-binary; 0.7% did not respond. 68.0% (n = 204) were Brazilian, and 32.0% (n = 96) were Portuguese. The mean age was 32.70 years old (SD = 11.261), the mode was 22 years old, with a range of 18 to 66 years. Data analysis procedure included exploratory factor analysis, internal consistency, independent sample t test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and chi-square tests. Results: Exploratory Factor Analysis generated three factors: Practice Organization, Personal Resources, and External Resources. The results report there are no differences in SRL scores in terms of gender, nationality, and musical instrument. However, One-way ANOVA test results convey differences in SRL scores and the quantity of practice and expertise with those musicians who reported practicing for longer periods scoring more highly than participants who declared spending less time on daily practice. Discussion: The results for the expertise variables suggest that more experienced and older musicians scored higher in Personal Resources and lower in External Resources indicating that, as musicians gain in experience, their metacognitive processes become more evident than the social factors of their performance.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The development of clinical skills requires the appropriate use of self-regulated learning (SRL). Students' use of key SRL processes as they perform a clinical skill can be identified by SRL microanalysis and used to provide feedback. SRL-microanalysis feedback only on students' key SRL processes has not been previously researched for developing clinical skills. The aim of this study was to investigate whether SRL-microanalysis feedback only on students' key SRL processes can improve both their use of SRL and their clinical skill performance. METHODS: Twenty-three final year medical students with no experience in the clinical skill required for mechanical ventilation participated in this study. Key SRL processes and clinical skill performance were measured before and after SRL microanalysis feedback. RESULTS: Overall, we found an improvement in the key SRL processes of planning and monitoring of performance, with a significant difference in monitoring. We also found an increase in students' clinical skill performance. DISCUSSION: This study, which is the first in clinical skills, demonstrated that SRL microanalysis feedback only on key SRL processes can improve both students' SRL and their clinical skill performance. studies are recommended with a great number of students and across a variety of clinical skills.

BACKGROUND: The area of self-regulated learning integrates the fields of metacognition and self-regulation and assumes that the student is an active processor of information capable of self-regulating his learning by putting together the cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational components. The Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) is a benchmark for the measurement of self-regulated learning. However, the field of study does not show adequate evidence of its structural validity. The vast majority of studies involving this question present serious methodological mistakes, compromising the evidence of validity. OBJECTIVE: Our study investigates the structural validity of MSLQ including all 15 scales and corrects relevant mistakes in the previous studies. METHOD: We tested different models through item confirmatory factor analysis in a convenience sample of 670 college students (M = 22.8 years, SD = 5.2) from a public Brazilian university in the technological area. The models with the ML, MLR, MLM and WLMSV estimators. RESULTS: Only WLSMV produced models with acceptable fit. The final model has a bi-factor structure with a general factor (self-regulated learning), 15 components as first-order factors, and four broad components as second-order factors. Twelve first-order components, all second-order components and the general factor had acceptable reliability. The components' elaboration, intrinsic goal orientation and metacognitive self-regulation, did not show acceptable reliability, in terms of McDonald's omega. CONCLUSION: Considering the worldwide importance of the MSLQ, we do not recommend the use of the measurement of these components for clinical practice and psychoeducational diagnosis until new studies show that this low reliability only occurs in our sample. Our study shows new evidence, correcting many previous methodological mistakes and producing initial evidence favorable to the factor structure of the MSLQ.
RESUMO
The main aim of this research was to establish preliminary standards for the Self-Regulation for Reading Comprehension Multidimensional Battery (BAMA-Reading), consisting of nine scales. The study sample comprised 910 Middle School students from Brazilian public schools. Norms for the BAMA-Reading scales, which have a Likert-type response format, were established based on percentiles, with the sample classified into four subgroups divided by gender, repetition history, and school year. For the EAC-CL (Educational Assessment Battery for Reading Comprehension and Learning), whose response format differs from the other scales in the battery, separate standards were established. It was found that not all scales in the battery demonstrated measurement invariance for gender, repetition history, and school year. Variances were identified in the EAC-CL concerning these variables. The results suggest caution when applying group comparison analyses in BAMA-Reading. Future studies on the battery should involve new samples and employ advanced statistical techniques to establish more definitive standards.
El objetivo principal de esta investigación fue establecer normas preliminares para la Batería Multidimensional de Autorregulación para la Comprensión Lectora (BAMA-Lectora), compuesta por nueve escalas. La muestra del estudio estuvo compuesta por 910 estudiantes de la Enseñanza Fundamental de escuelas públicas brasileñas. Las normas para las escalas BAMA-Lectura que tienen formato de respuesta tipo Likert se establecieron con base en cuatro subgrupos clasificados con base en percentiles, divididos en grupos de género, historial de repetición y año escolar. Para la EAC-CL, cuyo formato de respuesta difiere del resto de básculas de la batería, se establecieron estándares separados. Se encontró que no todas las escalas de la batería tienen invariancia de medición para género, historial de repetición y año escolar. Se identificaron diferenciaciones en la EAC-CL en estas variables. Los resultados sugieren parsimonia para la aplicación de análisis de comparación de grupos en BAMA-Lectora. Futuros estudios con la batería deberían realizarse con nuevas muestras y aplicando otras técnicas estadísticas para establecer normas.
O principal objetivo desta pesquisa foi estabelecer normas preliminares para a Bateria Multidimensional da Autorregulação para a Compreensão de Leitura (BAMA-Leitura), composta por nove escalas. A amostra de estudo foi composta por 910 estudantes de escolas públicas brasileiras. As normas para as escalas da BAMA-Leitura que possuem formato de resposta tipo Likert foram estabelecidas a partir de quatro subgrupos classificados com base em percentis, divididas em grupos de sexo, histórico de repetência e ano escolar. Para a EAC-CL, cujo formato de resposta difere das demais escalas da bateria foram estabelecidas normas à parte. Constatou-se que nem todas as escalas da bateria possuem a invariância de medida para o sexo, histórico de repetência e ano escolar. Identificaram-se diferenciações na EAC-CL nessas variáveis. Os resultados sugerem parcimônia para a aplicação de análises de comparação de grupos na BAMA-Leitura. Estudos futuros com a bateria devem ser conduzidos com novas amostras e aplicando outras técnicas estatísticas para o estabelecimento de normas.
RESUMO
It has been shown that self-regulation of learning is a key variable for an adequate transition and adjustment from secondary school to tertiary education, and it is also associated with successful academic results; therefore, it is relevant to analyze its levels of development in the pre-university stage. The aim of this research was to evaluate the trajectories of self-regulation of learning in secondary school students. The method considered a longitudinal design and included a sample of 403 students from 9th to 12th grade in Chile. An instrument with adequate psychometric properties was used to measure the learning self-regulation process (disposition, performance and self-evaluation phases). The results showed that self-regulation is at suboptimal levels in its different phases (M = 4.25 to M = 4.71). Linear mixed models showed: a significant effect of sex on the disposition variable in favor of females; and that the phases of disposition, performance and self-evaluation do not change over time. It is concluded that, if self-regulation of learning is not specifically trained, it does not increase during secondary school. The findings are discussed considering the possible practical implications for educational policies, research, timely intervention and impact on the quality of school and university education.
RESUMO
Resumen El confinamiento por COVID-19 ocasionó que las familias se enfrentaran al proceso del estudio en el hogar, mediante la enseñanza remota. El rol que juega la familia en el proceso de aprendizaje, sin embargo, históricamente ha depositado en la escuela la mayor responsabilidad. Este estudio analizó cómo las familias se dispusieron para fomentar el aprendizaje autorregulado en el hogar de los niños, niñas y adolescentes en tiempos de COVID-19. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo correlacional, donde participaron 65 familias de niños, niñas y adolescentes de las Regiones del Biobío y Ñuble, las cuales respondieron un cuestionario parental sobre promoción del aprendizaje autorregulado y preguntas sociodemográficas. Los hallazgos permitieron inferir que cuando las familias se sienten capaces de fomentar el estudio, se disponen a ello, emplean estrategias cognitivas, buscan ayuda cuando lo necesitan y evalúan la planificación del estudio y aprendizaje de manera media y/o alta. Este tipo de estudios aporta al vacío teórico evidenciado en la literatura acerca del rol educativo de la familia durante la pandemia; asimismo, contribuye a reflexionar sobre las estrategias que emplean las familias para colaborar con el aprendizaje de sus niñas, niños y adolescentes.
Abstract The COVID-19 confinement caused families to face the study process at home through emergency remote teaching. The role of the family in the learning process is well known; however, historically, the greatest responsibility has been placed on the school. This study analyzed how families arranged themselves to foster self-regulated learning at home for children and adolescents in times of COVID-19. It was a descriptive correlational study, with the participation of 65 families of children and adolescents from the Biobío and Ñuble Regions, who answered a parental questionnaire on the promotion of self-regulated learning and sociodemographic questions. The findings allow inferring that when families feel capable of promoting study, they are willing to do it, use cognitive strategies, seek help when needed and that most of them evaluate their study and learning planning in a medium and/or high way. Significant differences were also found by gender, with men establishing more cognitive strategies and asking for more help than women when performing academic activities with their children and adolescents. This type of study contributes to the theoretical void evidenced in the literature on the educational role of the family during the pandemic and contributes to reflect on the strategies used by families to collaborate with the study of their children and adolescents.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: The performance of a clinical procedural skill by an individual student is associated with their use of Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) processes. However, previous research has not identified if an individual student has a similarity in their use of SRL processes across different clinical procedural skill tasks and at a time interval. The aim of this pilot study was to explore the similarity in the use of SRL processes by individual students across different clinical procedural skill tasks and at a time interval. METHODS: SRL-microanalysis was used to collect within-subject data on undergraduate physiotherapy students' use of the two key SRL processes (planning and monitoring) during their performance of different goniometry clinical procedural skills tasks and also at a fourth month interval. RESULTS: An individual student's use of key SRL processes across different clinical procedural skill tasks and at a time interval was similar. Also, this similarity was identified for students with initial successful and unsuccessful performances. CONCLUSION: Our findings have implications for the future wider practical implementation of SRL microanalysis to inform personalised SRL feedback for developing the clinical procedural skills of individual students. Further research with a greater number of students and across a wider range of clinical procedural skills will be required to confirm our findings, and also its effectiveness on feedback and future performance.

Introducción: La autorregulación del aprendizaje se refiere a la modulación de los procesos afectivos, cognitivos y conductuales a lo largo de una experiencia de aprendizaje para alcanzar un nivel de logro deseado. Los estudiantes que tienen un mejor manejo de sus habilidades cognitivas y metacognitivas aprenden de una mejor forma que aquellos que no, por lo tanto, es fundamental estudiar a qué nivel los estudiantes universitarios son capaces de aprender a aprender y a ser gestores de su aprendizaje. Objetivos: Analizar la relación entre la autorregulación del aprendizaje y el rendimiento académico en estudiantes de la carrera medicina de tres universidades en el año 2022. Materiales y métodos: Esta investigación siguió un enfoque cuantitativo, el tipo de investigación fue observacional de tipo descriptivo. Se utilizó un instrumento previamente validado para identificar los tipos de autorregulación, la Autorregulación del Aprendizaje a partir de Textos (ARATEX-R). Resultados: No se encontró relación significativa entre el perfil académico de los estudiantes de medicina y el puntaje total del ARATEX-R. Al estudiar la relación entre las dimensiones de la autorregulación se encontró relación entre el rendimiento académico y la planificación y la gestión de la motivación, lo que implica que los que tienen mejores habilidades de planificación y que son capaces de gestionar su motivación tienen mejor rendimiento académico. Conclusión: Las principales dimensiones que caracterizan la autorregulación del aprendizaje en estudiantes de medicina fueron: gestión del contexto, gestión de la cognición y evaluación de la comprensión.
Introduction: Self-regulation of learning refers to the modulation of affective, cognitive and behavioral processes throughout a learning experience to reach a desired level of achievement. Students who have a better management of their cognitive and metacognitive skills learn in a better way than those who do not, therefore, it is essential to study at what level university students are capable of learning to learn and to be managers of their learning. Objectives: To analyze the relationship between self-regulation of learning and academic performance in medical students from three universities in the year 2022. Materials and methods: This research followed a quantitative approach; the type of research was observational and descriptive. A previously validated instrument was used to identify types of self-regulation, the Self-Regulation of Learning from Texts (ARATEX-R). Results: No significant relationship was found between the academic profile of medical students and the total ARATEX-R score. When studying the relationship between the dimensions of self-regulation, a relationship was found between academic performance and motivation planning and management, which implies that those who have better planning skills and who are able to manage their motivation have better academic performance. Conclusion: The main dimensions that characterize the self-regulation of learning in medical students were: context management, cognition management and comprehension evaluation.

RESUMO
Resumo: Introdução: A aprendizagem autorregulada (self-regulated learning - SRL) é o processo ativo que o aluno realiza para atingir seus objetivos de aprendizagem. No ensino médico, pelo fato de o ambiente clínico ser propício para o desenvolvimento da SRL, há potencial benefício na aplicação dessa ferramenta no processo de ensino-aprendizado, embora as diferenças em seus cenários de aplicação exijam uma análise mais aprofundada. Objetivo: Este artigo apresenta uma revisão da literatura sobre o histórico do desenvolvimento da SRL, sua aplicabilidade e avaliação em estudantes de Medicina por meio de escala validada, além dos fatores que a influenciam, como métodos de ensino e questões demográficas e socioculturais. Método: Realizou-se uma busca com o descritor self-regulated learning nas plataformas PubMed e SciELO e na revista Medical Education Online para artigos em inglês publicados entre 2010 e 2021. Resultado: A busca nas bases de dados resultou em 198 artigos, dos quais foram selecionados 100 para a análise crítica. Desses 100 artigos, selecionaram-se 31 que preenchiam os critérios desta revisão. Conclusão: A SRL é um conceito contemporâneo considerado pilar no processo educacional. Trata-se de ferramenta de grande valor em psicologia educacional. A aplicabilidade da SRL no contexto do ensino médico demonstra-se efetiva e traz consigo especificidades sobre a autorregulação do estudante de Medicina. Contudo, são necessários novos estudos acerca do tema, de modo a permitir o desenvolvimento de métodos instrucionais eficazes com sua utilização.
Abstract: Introduction: Self-regulated learning (SRL) is the active process that students perform to achieve their learning goals. In medical education, the development of SRL is favoured by the clinical environment, hence there is potential benefit in applying this tool in the teaching-learning process, although the differences in its application scenarios require deeper analysis. Objective: The aim of this article is to present a literature review on the development of SRL, its applicability and evaluation in medical students using a validated scale, and the factors that influence it, such as teaching methods and demographic and sociocultural issues. Method: A search was performed on the Pub-med and Scielo platforms and the online Medical Education Journal for articles in English published between 2010 and 2021 using the descriptors "Self-regulated learning". Results: The database search resulted in 198 articles, of which 100 were selected for critical analysis. Of these, 31 articles were selected based on meeting the criteria of this review. Conclusions: SRL is a contemporary educational concept and considered a pillar in the educational process. It is a valuable tool in educational psychology. Its applicability in the context of medical education proves to be effective and brings with it specificities in relation to the self-regulation of medical students. However, further studies on the subject are necessary to allow for the development of effective instructional methods to support its use.
RESUMO
Research on the use of smartphone apps with the aim of developing self-regulated learning (SRL) and increasing academic performance of university students in virtual mode, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, is recent and scarce. The present article shows the results of a study that analyzed the effect of using the 4Planning app with an intra-curricular approach on SRL and on the academic performance of 119 1st-year psychology students in virtual mode, at a Chilean university (M Age = 22.81, SD Age = 6.52). The research was conducted with quantitative methodology and a quasi-experimental design, with pre- and posttest measurements of an experimental group and comparisons with three control groups. The results show that students who used the app during 10 weeks of the first academic semester 2021: (1) increased SRL self-report, (2) increased academic self-efficacy, and (3) obtained higher academic performance, compared to those who did not use it. The above occurs because the 4Planning app activates functions of the self-regulatory system of goal-directed behavior, which allows exercising the capacity of self-direction and self-influence on this type of behavior in the particular context of academic performance, which produces SRL. It is concluded that the 4Planning app is effective in developing self-regulation and improving the academic performance of 1st-year university students, in virtual learning mode.
RESUMO
The objective of this study is to analyze the validity evidence of the Academic Procrastination Scale (APS) in a sample consisting of 1979 students from public and private universities, from different courses, 67% of the students being women, aged 18 to 68 years old (M = 22.84). The principal component analysis revealed two components, also validated by confirmatory analysis, which showed a good overall fit of a two-dimensional model: Daily Study Procrastination (a = 0.75) and Exam Study Procrastination (a = 0.75). Internal consistency was estimated through Cronbach's alpha, obtaining 0.83 for the total scale. The study concludes that APS has satisfactory psychometric properties and suggests further validation studies and also analysis of academic procrastination in higher education students. (AU)
O objetivo deste estudo é analisar as evidências de validade da Escala de Procrastinação Acadêmica (EPA) em uma amostra de 1979 estudantes de universidades públicas e privadas, matriculados em cursos de graduação distintos, sendo 67% mulheres, com idades variando entre 18 e 68 anos (M = 22,84). A análise de componentes principais indicou dois componentes, validados também pela análise confirmatória, a qual confirmou o ajuste dos dados ao modelo de dois fatores: Procrastinação para o Estudo Diário (a = 0,75) e Procrastinação para o Estudo para Provas (a = 0,73). A consistência interna, estimada pelo alfa de Cronbach, foi de 0,83 para a escala total. Conclui-se que a EPA apresenta propriedades psicométricas satisfatórias, com a sugestão da continuidade de estudos de validade e, também, de avaliação da procrastinação acadêmica em estudantes do ensino superior.

One of the main challenges in higher education is promoting students' autonomous and self-regulated learning, which involves managing their own emotions and learning processes in different contexts and circumstances. Considering that online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic may be an opportunity for university students to take greater responsibility for their learning, it is essential to explore the strategies they have developed in the face of emotional and learning challenges during the health crisis. This study aimed at analyzing the relationships between students' emotions, coping strategies, and self-regulated learning in online learning during COVID-19 home confinement. The participants were 1,290 Mexican students from different universities throughout the country, who answered an online self-report questionnaire from standardized instruments adapted to the pandemic. Data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential analyses, including a structural equation model (SEM). Findings indicate that, although anxiety, boredom, and frustration were present among participants during confinement, the primary emotions were gratitude, joy, and hope. Second, the main coping strategies used by students participating were focused on facing and reassessing the situation. Furthermore, tranquility, hope, gratitude, and joy were positively related to self-regulated learning, although, loneliness and disinterest were negatively related. Finally, it was found that an approach to coping strategies mediated the relationship between emotions and self-regulated learning. Thus, teachers should help students understand the relevance of active coping strategies and use student-centered learning models that promote autonomous and self-regulated learning, considering each learner's needs, during and after confinement.
RESUMO
Researchers of cognitive load theory and the cognitive theory of multimedia learning have identified several strategies to optimize instructional materials. In this review article we focus on five of these strategies or solutions to problematic instructional designs in multimedia learning: (a) the multimedia principle (use visualizations and drawings to complement texts); (b) the split-attention effect or spatial contiguity principle (show texts contiguously or integrated with visualizations); (c) the redundancy effect, alike the coherence principle (remove nonessential learning information); (d) the signaling principle (cue or signal essential learning information); and (e) the transient information effect or segmenting principle (segment or control the pace of animations and videos). Usually, both cognitive theories have investigated solutions that instructors, teachers, and designers should pursue to optimize students' learning. Here, in a novel approach, we show that these strategies can also be used by learners who want to self-manage their cognitive load and learning process. We provide several examples of both instructor- and learner-managed solutions aligned with these strategies. When assessing which agent, either the instructor or the learner, was most effective, we observed mixed results in the literature. However, the expertise reversal effect may help predict the direction of these effects: novice students may learn better under instructor-managed conditions, whereas more expert students may learn more under learner-managed conditions.
RESUMO
Abstract Self-regulated learning refers to intentional, planned, temporal, dynamic, and complex action. Self-regulatory assessment instruments valid for traditional teaching are not suitable for online environments. This study examinates evidence for validation of the Online Self-Regulated Learning Questionnaire (OSLQ) applied to a sample of 1,434 students from an on-line Pedagogy course, 95.12% women and 4.88% men, ages from 21 to 40 years, from different regions of Brazil. AFE and AFC considering Parallel Analyzes. The results indicated a moderate adjustment for the hypothetical six-factor model. The extraction of two factors by AFE indicated that the model has not been confirmed. This result points to the need of further studies using the instrument, aiming at its availability to research.

RESUMO
Abstract From the perspective of positive environment theory, supportive environments, can promote student successful academic adaptation. Accordingly, student academic success is the result of academic adaptation, and can be assessed via means of academic engagement and self-regulated learning. Thus, the aim of the present study was to test the relationship between positive learning environments (POLE), academic engagement and self-regulated learning in high school students. Using a cross-sectional design, participants included 166 freshmen high school students, 76 participants of the sample were male (45.8%) and 90 were female (54.2%). Mean age was 15.2 (S.D. = .43). Before participation informed consent was obtained from parents and assent from participants. Students answered a questionnaire regarding academic support given by parents, pro-academic friends, positive family environment, and academic engagement and self-regulated learning. Using Structural Equation Modeling the results demonstrated (p<.05) that POLE represented a latent factor formed by parental academic support, pro-academic friends and positive family environment. The structural model showed that POLE was positively related to academic engagement (structural coefficient= .80); also, academic engagement was related with self-regulated learning (structural coefficient= .55) and explained 30% of student self-regulated learning. Results suggest that POLE could promote academic engagement and self-regulated learning.
Resumen De acuerdo con la teoría de ambientes positivos, los contextos donde se brinda apoyo académico pueden promover la adaptación exitosa de los estudiantes, y, a su vez, el resultado de dicha adaptación favorece su éxito académico, lo cual puede medirse con los constructos de compromiso académico y aprendizaje autorregulado en el ámbito académico. Teniendo esto en consideración, en la presente investigación se da cuenta de un trabajo de psicología positiva aplicada en el que se tuvo como objetivo evaluar la relación entre el ambiente de aprendizaje positivo (AAP), el compromiso académico y el aprendizaje autorregulado en bachilleres mexicanos. Para esto, se diseñó un estudio de tipo correlacional en el que participaron 166 estudiantes voluntarios de primer grado de bachillerato, seleccionados por conglomerados, con consentimiento informado individual y de sus padres. Del total de participantes, 76 fueron de sexo masculino (45.8 %) y 90 de sexo femenino (54.2 %), con una edad promedio de 15.2 años (DE = .43); quienes respondieron a cuestionarios sobre apoyo académico de padres, amigos pro-académicos, ambiente familiar positivo, compromiso académico y aprendizaje autorregulado. Se realizó un análisis de ecuaciones estructurales, y en los resultados se encontró, con una p < .05, que el AAP fue un factor latente formado por el apoyo académico de los padres, los amigos pro-académicos y el ambiente familiar positivo; además, en el modelo estructural, el AAP correlacionó positivamente con el compromiso académico (coeficiente estructural = .80), y este último se relacionó positivamente con el aprendizaje autorregulado de los estudiantes (coeficiente estructural = .55); finalmente el modelo estructural resultante explicó el 30 % del aprendizaje autorregulado. Para concluir, se discute respecto a la posibilidad de que el AAP promueva el compromiso académico y el aprendizaje autorregulado de los estudiantes.
RESUMO
Introducción: Los desafíos actuales plantean desarrollar el aprendizaje autorregulado en estudiantes de ciencias de la salud para prepararlos para un mundo cambiante y globalizado, al considerar que tienen a su cargo la vida de las personas. Objetivo: Caracterizar las investigaciones empíricas cuantitativas sobre aprendizaje autorregulado en estudiantes de ciencias de la salud. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura en las bases de datos Web of Science (WOS), Scopus y SciELO desde 2014 hasta 2019. De los 149 artículos encontrados, se seleccionaron 29. Resultados: Europa y Asia fueron los continentes con más frecuencia de publicaciones. Destacaron el diseño de tipo no experimental, la utilización del cuestionario de motivación y las estrategias de aprendizaje, y los tamaños muestrales de 51 a 100 y de 501 a 1000. Medicina y enfermería se mostraron como las carreras que más estudiaban el aprendizaje autorregulado. Las variables de mayor frecuencia resultaron las sociodemográficas y las relacionadas con el estudiante. El aprendizaje basado en problemas en formato intracurricular constituyó la metodología más usada para desarrollarlo. Las principales limitaciones reportadas tuvieron relación con el instrumento y la muestra. Conclusiones: Es necesario desarrollar investigaciones en Sudamérica y establecer alianzas con otros países de la región, además de superar las limitaciones metodológicas. Se sugiere desarrollar diseños cuasi experimentales e investigar variables de tipo afectivas, sociales y culturales que podrían incidir en el aprendizaje autorregulado. Las metodologías activas deberían incluirse de manera permanente en los planes de estudio ya que existe evidencia de su efectividad. Se invita a todas las carreras de las ciencias de la salud a avanzar en esta área(AU)
Introduction: The current challenges pose developing self-regulated learning in health sciences students to prepare them for a changing and globalized world, considering that they are in charge of people's lives. Objective: To characterize the quantitative empirical research on self-regulated learning in health science students. Methods: A systematic review of the literature was carried out in the Web of Science (WOS), Scopus and SciELO databases from 2014 to 2019. We selected 29 out of 149 articles found. Results: Europe and Asia were the continents with the highest frequency of publications. The most significant findings were the non-experimental design, the use of motivational questionnaire, the learning strategies, and sample sizes of 51 to 100 and 501 to 1000. The medicine and nursing trainings were found to study self-regulated learning the most. The variables with the highest frequency were sociodemographic and those student-related. Problem-based learning in an intracurricular format was the most widely used methodology to develop it. The main limitations reported were related to the instrument and the sample. Conclusions: It is necessary to research in South America and to establish alliances with other countries in the region, in addition to overcoming methodological limitations. It is suggested to carry out quasi-experimental designs and investigate affective, social and cultural variables that could influence self-regulated learning. Active methodologies should be permanently included in the study plans as there is evidence of their effectiveness. All health sciences studies are invited to advance in this area(AU)

Introducción: La motivación, el aprendizaje y la ejecución, presentan una relación recíproca según las últimas investigaciones en aprendizaje autorregulado. La motivación influye en el aprendizaje, los estudiantes organizan y elaboran mejor los materiales, se esfuerzan más, piden ayuda con más frecuencia y en definitiva están más comprometidos con la tarea académica. Por otro lado, la ejecución y lo que los estudiantes aprenden y realizan, puede, a su vez, aumentar o disminuir la motivación, a través de variables como la autoeficacia. Objetivo: Identificar qué variables motivacionales y cognitivas predicen el rendimiento académico y como lo hacen. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo e inferencial con una muestra de 508 estudiantes de ciencias de la salud pertenecientes a dos universidades privadas españolas, a la que se evalúa a través del Motivated Strategies For Learning Questionnaire, la utilización de estrategias cognitivas, metacognitivas, de gestión de recursos y motivacionales; después, se realizó un modelo de regresión, tomando estas estrategias como variables independientes y el rendimiento medido a través de las notas de los estudiantes como variable dependiente. Resultados: La autoeficacia para el rendimiento fue la variable que mejor predijo el rendimiento académico en los estudiantes universitarios de la muestra. Otras variables que también se relacionaron con el rendimiento fueron la gestión del tiempo y el lugar, la búsqueda de ayuda y la meta de autoensalzamiento. Conclusiones: Los resultados académicos dependen de los métodos de evaluación, del uso de estrategias cognitivas, metacognitivas, y motivacionales adecuadas al contexto instruccional, y de una mejor gestión de los recursos de aprendizaje. Estos hallazgos nos orientan a los docentes a proponer intervenciones educativas dirigidas a aumentar el uso de estrategias motivacionales y de aprendizaje en estudiantes universitarios(AU)
Introduction: Motivation, learning and practice have a reciprocal relationship, according to latest research in self-regulated learning. Motivation influences learning, students organize and elaborate materials better, make greater effort, ask for help more frequently, and ultimately are more committed to the academic task. On the other hand, the execution and what students learn and do in practice, can in turn increase or decrease motivation, through variables such as self-efficacy. Objective: To establish what motivational and cognitive variables predict academic performance and how they do it. Methods: A descriptive and inferential study was carried out with a sample of 508 students of health sciences belonging to two Spanish private universities, which are evaluated, through an adapted Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire, their usage of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, and others for resource management and associated with motivation. Later, we elaborated a regression model, taking these strategies as independent variables and the performance measured through the student's grades as a dependent variable. Results: Self-efficacy for performance was the variable that best predicted academic performance in the university students that made up the sample. Other variables that were also related to performance were the management of time and place, the search for help, and the goal of self-praise. Conclusions: The academic results depend on the evaluation methods, the use of cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational strategies appropriate to the instructional context, and on better management of learning resources. These findings guide teachers to propose educational interventions aimed at increasing the use of motivational and learning strategies in university students(AU)

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is an important factor for academic success. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between constructs typical of positive psychology (PP; self-esteem, self-efficacy, affects, life satisfaction, optimism, and hope) and SRL while indicating the explained variance of these constructs in an SRL model. The study comprised 1,046 undergraduate students from 63 public higher education institutions from all demographic regions of Brazil. Significant correlations (p < 0.01) were found between SRL and all PP variables. Moderate correlations were found with self-efficacy and positive affects. The linear regression analysis indicated that one model explains 41.9% of the variance in SRL. The data are discussed based on the potential of PP and SRL interventions to improve academic performance and student adaptation to higher education environments.
RESUMO
RESUMO Este estudo caracterizou a motivação para a leitura e os hábitos e estratégias para a realização da lição de casa de um grupo de estudantes do 2º ao 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental, de duas cidades de São Paulo e da Bahia. Explorou também a relação entre os construtos motivação e hábitos e estratégias para a realização da lição de casa e as diferenças em cada construto em razão do ano escolar. Os 545 participantes, entre 6 e 17 anos, preencheram um questionário de identificação e duas escalas do tipo Likert. A motivação extrínseca autônoma e as estratégias favoráveis à aprendizagem predominaram. As correlações entre os construtos alvo variaram de nulas a moderadas. A qualidade da motivação e os hábitos desfavoráveis à aprendizagem diferiram significativamente ao longo dos anos escolares, especialmente nos alunos paulistas.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to identify reading motivation and homework strategies and habits of a group of students from the 2nd to the 5th grade of Elementary School from two cities of São Paulo e Bahia. It also explored the relation between the motivation and habits/strategies constructs and the differences in each construct throughout the school grades. The 545 participants, aged 6 to 17 years, completed an identification questionnaire and two Likert scales. Autonomous extrinsic motivation and homework strategies which promote learning predominated. Correlations between the target constructs ranged from zero to moderate. Motivational quality and homework strategies differed significantly along the school years, especially for students from São Paulo.
