Psychosocial factors predicting the adjustment and academic performance of university studentsSommer, Marc 06 1900 (has links)
Although student enrolment at South African universities has significantly increased
over recent years; student retention and graduation rates remain low, while student dropout
rates are high, especially among historically disadvantaged students. One reason for the low
student academic success is poor academic performance which is, in part, influenced by a
variety of psychosocial constructs. The present study examined the influence and
predictability of the psychosocial constructs of help-seeking, academic motivation, self~
esteem, academic overload, perceived-stress, test~anxiety, self~efficacy and perceived social
support on students' adjustment and academic performance at university. The current study
had four distinctive aims seeking to aid in addressing the current situation: firstly, to identify
the relationship between psychosocial constructs, adjustment and academic performance.
Secondly, to replicate an earlier model with psychosocial constructs proposing that a partially
mediated model is preferred in explaining students' adjustment and academic performance at
university- compared to a direct or totally mediated model. Thirdly, to theoretically and
empirically extend and test an extended model of psychosocial constructs to explain students'
adjustment and academic performance at university. Fourthly, to test for and identify possible
group differences among the psychosocial constructs; as well as to establish if students'
gender, age and residence status functioned as moderator variables. The present study was
conducted at the historically disadvantaged University of Fort Hare. The number of
participants was 280 and included first and second-year undergraduate students. Path analysis
was conducted to test the hypotheses of the present study. Results partially supported
previous findings with regard to relationships between psychosocial constructs, adjustment
and academic performance; they also confirmed that a partially mediated model is preferred
to explaining students' adjustments and academic performance at university; results showed
that the additional constructs oftest-anxiety and self-efficacy increased the explained
variance of an extended model to predict students' success at university; and identified some
path differences between psychosocial constructs, adjustment and academic performance. It
is recommended that universities focus on psychosocial factors as well as students' overall adjustment and well-being as it impacts on their academic performance capabilities. It is
further recommended that psychosocial factors are incorporated into existing, or at least
considered for, new or enhanced student development, support and intervention initiatives.
These university services could be administered and implemented by training existing
academic staff along with help from university counselling centres or psychology
departments. An integral part of any intervention or support program should be the teaching
of coping skills or strategies as well as the incorporation of graduate students to assist and
help students adjust to university in order to perform well academically. / Psychology / Ph.D (Psychology)

Educational needs of over age learners in the foundation phase as viewed by educatorsCairns, Clive John 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MEd)--University of Stellenbosch, 2001. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Being over age-for-grade has become a barrier to learning. More than 15% of learners in
the South African school system are over age. This creates an enormous problem in terms
of education spending per learner. In 1998 South Africa spent one-third of its education
budget on over age learners who included repeaters and drop-outs.
A clearer understanding of the educational needs of over age learners is needed. These
learners are at risk of dropping out, being further retained or being promoted out of the
school system. Thus far over age learners have been marginalised by the education
system essentially due to the system's inability to deal with them. The purpose of this
study is, therefore, to make a contribution to the understanding of the educational needs
of over age learners.
A qualitative approach provided a clear description of the factors that impact on the
educational needs of over age learners. This study revealed the following:
• Over age learners experience a sense of being educationally displaced.
• The attitudes and beliefs of teachers directly influence their educational responses to
the needs of over age learners.
• Over age learners struggle with basic scholastic skills.
• The provision of support comes primarily from classroom peers.
It appears that teachers need a variety of educational skills to deal appropriately with the
needs of over age learners. Furthermore, it appears that these learners need an
educational space of their own within an inclusive education environment. It would
further appear that over age learners need to be acknowledged as being a specific
category of learners with learning barriers, otherwise their needs will continue to be
marginalised by the educational system. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Dit wil voorkom dat ouderdom 'n leerhindernis vir duisende leerders geword het. Meer as
vyftien persent van leerders in die skoolsisteem is oorouderdom. Dit skep 'n probleem in
terme van die opvoedingsonkoste per leerder. In 1998 is 'n derde van die Suid
Afrikaanse begroting aan oorouderdom leerders gespandeer wat ook herhalers en
skoolverlaters insluit.
Daar is 'n behoefte aan groter begrip vir die behoeftes van oorouderdom leerders. Daar is
'n risiko dat hierdie leerders skool kan verlaat, terug gehou kan word, of uit die
skoolsisteem bevorder kan word. Tot dusver is oorouderdom leerders deur die
onderwyssisteem gemarginaliseer hoofsaaklik as gevolg van 'n gebrek aan kennis om
hulle effektiefte akkommodeer. Die doel van hierdie studie was om 'n bydrae te lewer tot
'n beter begrip van die opvoedkundige behoeftes van oorouderdom leerders.
'n Kwalitatiewe benadering is verkies wat 'n duidelike beskrywing gee van die
opvoedkundige behoeftes van oorouderdom leerders. Die studie het die volgende
tendense aan die lig gebring:
• Oorouderdom leerders ervaar hulself as misplaas binne die onderwys stelsel.
• Opvoeders se houdings en oortuigings het 'n duidelike invloed op hul eie
opvoedkundige response ten opsigte van die behoeftes van oorouderdom leerders.
• Oorouderdom leerders worstel met basiese skolastiese vaardighede.
• Oorouderdom leerders ontvang primêr opvoedkundige ondersteuning van medeleerders.
Opvoeders benodig 'n verskeidenheid van opvoedkundige vaardighede om oorouderdom
leerders se behoeftes toepaslik te hanteer. Dit blyk dat hierdie leerders 'n behoefte het
aan hul eie opvoedkundige ruimte binne 'n inklusiewe omgewing. Daar kan
geargumenteer word dat oorouderdom leerders 'n spesifieke kategorie leerders is met
eiesoortige leerhindernisse. Indien bogenoemde nie erken word nie sal daar voort gegaan
word met die miskenning van oorouderdom leerders se behoeftes deur die
opvoedkundige gemeenskap.
