Examining indicators for effective studying – The interplay between student integration, psychological flexibility and self-regulation in learning
Open accessAbstract
Prolonged study times and dropouts from university studies have created a need to examine more ways to support students’ studying. This study aims to examine the relationship between the self-regulated learning, psychological flexibility and student integration comprising teacher and student interaction, students’ commitment to studying as well as the relationship of these aspects to study progression. The participants of this study were 117 theology students. Items measuring student integration were first analysed with factor analysis. The relationship between student integration, psychological flexibility, self-regulated learning and study progression was analysed with correlation analyses and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The results show that psychological flexibility is related to study progression, self-regulated learning and student integration. The effect of self-regulated learning and student integration to study progression was not significant. This study suggests that students’ way of coping with negative thoughts and emotions should be taken into account when considering learning and teaching.

TL;DR
This study examined how psychological flexibility, self-regulated learning, and student integration relate to study progression among 117 theology students. Psychological flexibility was the strongest correlate of study progression and student integration, whereas self-regulated learning and integration had weak or non-significant effects on progression in the SEM.
Key findings
- Psychological flexibility correlated positively with study progression (r = .42, p < .01) and with all student-integration components: peer group interaction (r = .38), interaction with teachers (r = .51), and commitment (r = .24).
- Self-regulated learning correlated positively with study progression (r = .23, p < .05) and with interaction with teachers (r = .38), but not significantly with peer interaction (r = .13) or commitment (r = .09).
- In the SEM, psychological flexibility was most strongly related to all integration components (p ≤ .01) and to study progression (p < .001); self-regulation was only mildly related to interaction with teachers (p = .08), and integration and self-regulation were poorly related to study progression.
- The final integration factor solution had three factors—Teacher interaction and support, Student interaction, and Commitment—with Cronbach’s alphas between .74 and .88; self-regulation alpha was .81 and psychological flexibility alpha was .90.
Methods
- An electronic questionnaire was sent to all Faculty of Theology students at the University of Helsinki in fall 2015; 127 students participated, 10 were excluded because study progression could not be linked, leaving 117 participants (age 19–62, M = 34.21, s = 12.57; 67% female, 31% male, one other gender).
- Measures included student integration adapted from Pascarella and Terenzini (1980) and Lähteenoja (2010), psychological flexibility based on the WAAQ, self-regulation from the Inventory of Learning Styles, and study progression measured by ECTS credits from the last academic year.
- Analyses included exploratory factor analysis with principal axis factoring and oblimin rotation, Pearson correlations, and structural equation modelling using Amos; the final model fit was χ² = 3.40, p = .18, RMSEA = 0.078, CFI = 0.99.
Limitations
- The paper states the sample was small: fewer than 10% of Faculty of Theology students answered, so the sample cannot be considered very representative based on size, though it was considered quite representative by gender and age; the sample was also small for SEM, though RMSEA was considered acceptable.
- The paper states the student-integration questionnaire did not work properly, with cross loadings and poor communalities; it also notes the study focused only on self-regulation in learning, not external regulation or lack of regulation, and measured mainly social rather than academic integration.
- Evident from the text: the design is correlational and based on self-report questionnaire data, so causal direction between psychological flexibility, integration, self-regulation, and study progression cannot be established.

The authors state this as an assumption.
Student integration to the university is an emotional experience.
“Student integration to the university can be assumed to be an emotional experience as the learning environment promotes the development of expertise and a lot of different kind of people with different backgrounds come together (Cartney & Rouse, 2006).”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Social integration of students would be quite successful at the university level.
“Thus, it could be assumed that social integration of students would be quite successful at the university level.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
