“…Ha and Harpham [20] have found that private tutoring does increase the reading ability although it does not have an impact on the writing and numeracy skills of the grade 8 students of Vietnam. Further, Zhang [14], has observed on the effects of private tutoring and identified it has mixed effects on mathematical, Chinese language and English language in China (also in [21]). Conversely, Cole [11], a study on the effect of private tutoring on grade 5 scholarship exam performance in Sri Lanka reveals that there is no effect of private tutoring on students' scores.…”

Increased participation in private tutoring intended towards the high academic performance has been perceived enormously worldwide. However, to date literature is indecisive about the effect of private tutoring on students' academic performance. This study directed to observe the impact of private tutoring on students' academic performance in Sri Lanka. Data was collected from a stratified systematic random sample of 600 children were in Year 7 -11 and their parents through a questionnaire survey. It was found that private tutoring has positive effect on students' academic performance while net impact of private tutoring on student's academic performance is reduced in magnitude when parental education, economic status and especially the effect self leaning hours is concerned. Hence, the study concludes that rather than focusing on private tutoring, efforts to improve self learning strategies that enhance socio-cultural connectedness and human focus can lead to achieve wider goals of education.

“… Bandura (1978) emphasizes that self-efficacy not only affects individuals’ belief in their ability to cope with stress but also directly impacts their psychosomatic regulation system, thereby affecting their physical and mental health. A meta-analysis involving 242,023 students confirmed the significant positive impact of self-efficacy on achievement competencies, skills, knowledge, and health behaviors ( Çikrıkci, 2017 ). The study by Gore Jr (2006) suggests that self-efficacy is an important indicator for predicting the success of adolescents.…”

Background There is a paucity of knowledge concerning the psychological variables that serve to facilitate the connection between physical activity and self-efficacy, and the factors capable of moderating these pathways. This study aimed to examine the relationship between physical activity and self-efficacy among college students, with a focus on the mediating effect of grit and the moderating effect of gender. Methods This study recruited 3,228 undergraduate students from a university in Shanghai, China. They completed the General Self-Efficacy Scale, the Short Grit Scale, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 and the Process v4.0 plugin. Results Physical activity had both a direct effect on self-efficacy (β = 0.07, 95% CI [0.04–0.11]) and an indirect effect through the two dimensions of grit: perseverance of effort (β = 0.06, 95% CI [0.04–0.07]) and consistency of interest (β = 0.03, 95% CI [0.02–0.04]). The mediating effect explained 53.27% of the total effect. Furthermore, gender moderated the relationship between perseverance of effort and self-efficacy, with a stronger effect observed in males (β = 0.08, t = 3.27, p < 0.01). Conclusion The results revealed that grit is an underlying psychological mechanism that links physical activity and self-efficacy. Moreover, gender moderates the effect of perseverance of effort on self-efficacy, with a stronger effect observed in males. These findings have practical implications for educators to design tailored physical activity interventions that foster grit and self-efficacy among college students.

“…For example, Pajares (2006) reported that about 25% of the variance associated with students' academic performance can be explained through self-efficacy. Therefore, the increase in self-efficacy of individuals is positively reflected on their success (Cikrikci, 2017).…”

This study investigates the changes in self-efficacy perceptions, professional self-esteem, and attitudes towards the teaching profession of pre-service information technology teachers in accordance with their academic achievement and career choices. A longitudinal research was conducted over a four-year time period with participation of 40 pre-service teachers. The data were collected through three separate scales at five different data collection points (entrance, freshman, sophomore, junior and senior years) corresponding to their initial states and their states at the end of each academic year. Findings indicated an improvement in terms of attitude towards the teaching profession and teaching selfefficacy through the time period. However, change in professional self-esteem did not follow such a clear pattern. While grade point averages (GPA) did not show significant relationships with attitude, self-efficacy or self-esteem in earlier states, as the participants gained experience, significant relationships arose among GPA, attitude and self-efficacy. Career choices of pre-service teachers were examined under three categories: teaching, coding and design. Preference for teaching was relatively high at the initial state and continuously increased over time. As the participants progressed in the program, their preference for coding and design increased as well. The increase in career choices of preservice teachers accords with the courses in the program.
