Introduction. Metacognition is a complex social cognitive model and scholars tend to agree that it is important to study the various aspects of the phenomenon, including self-regulation processes. Capacity to acquire new abilities or skills, or modifying behaviour by accepting the riskiness associated with duties is significant for military students. In forging their self-regulation, individuals contribute to social competence and social navigation that are important for military professions. Specifically, military leaders must deal with the added complexity of strategy and have a low degree of autonomy. The aim of the current study is to analyse relations between metacognitive indicators and self-regulation among military students. Materials and methods. 180 male students between the ages of 19 and 24 were recruited from a military institution (Russia). The research design included two steps. Firstly, the impact of metacognitive strategies on self-regulation among military students was studied by using multiple regression analysis. Secondly, the study involved two comparable groups of participants with high and middle levels of self-regulation (Type of Self-Regulatory Behaviours Test). In order to measure metacognitive strategies among military students, a number of diagnostic methods were applied: Individual Reflexivity Measure, Metacognitive Awareness Inventory, Self-report of Metacognitive Knowledge and Activity. Correlations between metacognitive parameters were calculated within each group of participants. Results. The study found multiple correlations between metacognitive strategies and self-regulation. Four primary metacognitive strategies were identified which contribute to self-regulation behaviour among military students. Specifically, the only parameter of metacognitive awareness of activity correlated positively with self-regulation variations (0,46), while the reflexivity component had the most negative contribution (-0,61). Scores for structure organization increased with the level of self-regulation among military students (p<0,05). Discussion and conclusion. One of the most important competencies for military education is self-regulation, which promotes externally oriented behaviour in military students. Acquiring new abilities or skills, or modifying habits by accepting the social complexity becomes progressively more significant for man in military professions. The current study sought to obtain a deeper understanding of the impact of metacognitive strategies on self-regulation in order to integrate metacognition components into an educational environment. The relationship between metacognitive strategies and the self-regulation scale among military students has an organized structure, which generally indicates the integration of this process during their study at military institutions.
The article examines the personal characteristics of unemployed men and women with addictive behavior. In order to determine the personal characteristics of unemployed addicts, the California Psychological Questionnaire CPI was used. The personal characteristics of unemployed addicts are empirically revealed. The differences between unemployed men and women with addicts, as well as the dynamics of the personal characteristics of unemployed people with addictive behavior, due to the age factor, are statistically proved. With age, unemployed people with dependent behavior decrease self-regulation, attention to others, organization, ability to take responsibility for themselves, independence, a tendency to think, insight, and increased rigidity and conservatism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
