“…Due to the increased research models during this period, a new research perspective on self-efficacy was used using such analyses, for instance, SEM and SEM_PLS (e.g. Prasojo et al, 2020;Firmansyah et al 2022;Mildawani et al 2022;Mudiono, 2019;Saptono et al 2021). In principle, there are various methods that can be used by researchers to develop research results, depending on the desired research objectives.…”

Self-efficacy is an individual's subjective assessment of their ability to effectively navigate and surmount obstacles and achieve desired outcomes. It is a key element of motivation and can be facilitated through experiential learning, skill mastery, and positive reinforcement. It can also be augmented through interventions and techniques. The purpose of this study is to explore and analyse the direction of self-efficacy research in the last ten years in Indonesia to show its novelty. The method of analysis used is content analysis. The sample used was articles published on googlescholar. The data was extracted based on a review of the title, method, and research results. The findings of this study state that self-efficacy has an influence on personal, academic, and career fields in the Indonesian literature. Methodologically, correlation and multiple regression techniques were the most widely used methods for establishing relationships. Self-efficacy research is expected to contribute to future researchers examining self-efficacy with other psychological aspects with different research methods

“…This is due to the confidence that students have in their developed academic skills, represented by self-efficacy, which impacts the way they develop and utilize critical thinking. This, in turn, can affect satisfaction with the learning process [ 63 ]. In addition, academic self-efficacy mediates the relationship between generalized anxiety and satisfaction with studies.…”

Background: The academic and emotional challenges faced by medical students can affect critical thinking and may also contribute to the development of increased generalized anxiety. Similarly, critical thinking and generalized anxiety can impact study satisfaction through the mediating mechanism of academic self-efficacy. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the mediating role of academic self-efficacy between critical thinking and generalized anxiety in study satisfaction among medical students. Methods: A cross-sectional and explanatory study was conducted involving 259 Peruvian medical students aged between 18 and 35 (M = 20.29, SD = 2.84). The evaluation was based on self-reported questionnaires covering critical thinking, generalized anxiety, academic self-efficacy, and study satisfaction. Furthermore, a structural equation modeling (SEM) and mediation approach was employed to examine the relationships between variables. Results: The results showed an adequate fit of the model [χ2 (87) = 155, p < 0.001, CFI = 0.93, TLI = 0.92, RMSEA = 0.05 (CI: 0.04–0.07), SRMR = 0.07], demonstrating the impact of critical thinking and generalized anxiety. It was confirmed that academic self-efficacy has a positive effect on study satisfaction. Moreover, the mediating role of academic self-efficacy was confirmed between critical thinking and study satisfaction, as well as between generalized anxiety and study satisfaction. Conclusions: Due to the high academic load on medical students, academic self-efficacy plays a mediating role in the relationship between critical thinking, generalized anxiety, and satisfaction with studies. The development of educational strategies will help to promote critical thinking and academic self-efficacy, as well as provide support to students with generalized anxiety, to enhance study satisfaction.

“…Although critical thinking has many advantages, its existence as an over-idealisation cannot be ignored when designing instruction (Pettersson, 2020). At the same time, critical thinking may face challenges due to the complexities of social competition (Mildawani et al, 2022). However, on balance, there is no doubt that critical thinking enhances learners.…”

The newly released Language Curriculum Standards for Compulsory Education by the Ministry of Education of mainland China emphasises the importance of developing critical thinking skills, and the value of related online curriculums is receiving increasing attention. Many studies have shown that essential thinking education develops students' creativity and self-diversity. However, it is necessary to note that this concept may need to be more idealised. A qualitative study was conducted using a case study approach to investigate further. The study involved semi- structured interviews and manual thematic coding with three teachers of online critical thinking curriculums. The results highlight that online essential curriculums of thinking have value, but the teacher, the students, the model of instruction, the teaching content, and the learning platform influence their effectiveness.
