Background and Purpose: The health and psycho-social and academic vitality of students have a great impact on their future progress. Therefore, the present research was conducted with the aim of modeling academic engagement based on academic identity with the mediating role of academic wellbeing of students.
Method: In terms of purpose, the present study is applied, and in terms of the method of data collection, it is a structural equation correlation. The population consisted of all female students enrolled in the second year of high school in the city of Isfahan during the 2014-2015 academic year. From this population, 501 individuals were selected using the staged cluster sampling method. The scale of School Engagement (Wang et al., 2011), the Educational Identity Questionnaire (Was and Isaacson, 2008), and the Academic Well-Being Questionnaire were used to collect data (Tuominen-Soini et al., 2012). The research data were analyzed using structural equation modeling method and by using SPSS26 and AMOS24 software.
Results: The results demonstrated that the proposed model fits the data well. According to the findings, successful and early academic identity were positive predictors of interest in school, whereas late and confused academic identity were negative predictors (P<0.01). Additionally, academic well-being had a significant and positive relationship with school engagement (p<0.01). The mediating role of academic well-being in the relationship between academic identity and interest in school was also confirmed (P<0.01).
Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that academic well-being mediates the relationship between school engagement and academic identity among second-year high school students, and that by enhancing identity styles, it was possible to increase their interest in school. Increasing academic well-being, on the other hand, can result in a strengthening of this relationship. |
