Abstract
Relevance. Modern education places high demands on students' independence, self-organization, and responsibility. The ability to effectively manage one's actions (self-regulation) becomes a key factor in successful learning.
Purpose. The study of the relationship between academic performance and the organization of the study group (acting as a socio-psychological factor), the style of self-regulation of behavior and educational motivation (acting as individual psychological factors) of medical university students
Materials and methods. The total size of the research sample was 427 people aged 18-22 years studying at a medical university. The study was carried out using the Arka hardware methodology (A.S. Chernyshev, S.V. Sarychev), the SSPM questionnaire (V.I. Morosanova), and the SHAM academic motivation questionnaire (authors: O.A. Gordeeva et al.).
The results and conclusions. The socio-psychological factor is the organization of the group in which the student studies – in groups with a high level of organization, academic performance is significantly higher than in groups with a low level of organization. Educational motivation and self-regulation act as individual psychological factors.
The revealed statistically significant correlations between academic performance indicators and the general level of self-regulation, as well as between the general level of self-regulation and achievement motivation, indicate that a high level of academic achievement ("study well and get good grades") is the goal that achievement motivation is focused on.
