“…This means that there is no direct correlation between self-concept and learning achievement. This result is in line with the results of previous studies which stated that there was no positive relationship between learning achievement and self-concept (Awai & Ogori, 2016;Basith et al, 2021;Juliyanti & Pujiastuti, 2020;Yengimolki, et al, 2015). By inference, the results of the analysis stated that there was a very weak and insignificant positive relationship between self-concept and learning achievement.…”

“…Similarly, if the self-concept is low, the learning outcomes are low. However, several studies also explain that there is no strong correlation between academic achievement and self-concept (Awai & Ogori, 2016;Basith et al, 2021;Juliyanti & Pujiastuti, 2020;Yengimolki, et al, 2015). These results show that there is still a debate about the correlation between self-concept and learning achievement.…”

Self-concept is one important factor in one's success, especially in education. This study aims to describe and analyze the relationship between students' self-concept in learning mathematics and mathematics learning achievement, and investigate the significance of differences in self-concept and learning achievement in mathematics education students seen from that semester. A total of 151 mathematics education students at the Teaching and Education Faculty of the University of Muhammadiyah Malang were used as participants in this study. Self-concept data and mathematics learning achievement were obtained through an online questionnaire using Google Forms. Descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and ANOVA tests were used in analyzing the data. Descriptions of self-concept and student achievement are presented per category and semester. Correlational analysis shows a very weak relationship between self-concept and student achievement. The results of the ANOVA test prove that there is no significant difference in self-concept in terms of student semesters. As for learning achievement there is a significant difference based on student semester.

“…The authors are aware that it will be necessary to balance the number of participants for gender in the next researches with regard to these topics for examining the differences between males and females in procrastination (confirmed by Mandap, 2016;Ozer, Demir & Ferrari, 2009), decision-making styles (as in Bajwa, et al, 2016), and intolerance of uncertainty (for instance, in Dugas, et al, 2001). For example, as reported by Mandap (2016) and Basith (2021), male university students tend to procrastinate more than the female ones. As well as, Bajwa (2016) found that females use more rational decision-making style and show more intuitive decision-making ability than males.…”

Decisional procrastination in university students is affected by several factors that could hinder its reduction and, among these factors, the styles of decision-making and the tolerance of uncertainty have been poorly investigated during the pandemic. This study analyzed the associations of procrastination with decision-making styles and intolerance of uncertainty in 209 freshmen of Degrees in Psychology at the University of Catania (Italy). The Decisional Procrastination Scale, the Decision-Making Styles, and the Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale were used. Results: 1) decisional procrastination is associated positively with doubtfulness, and proxy, but negatively with no problem style; 2) decisional procrastination is strongly related both to prospective and inhibitory intolerance of uncertainty; 3) decision-making styles (doubtfulness, and proxy) are positively related both to prospective and inhibitory intolerance of uncertainty; finally, 4) no problem style is negatively associated both with prospective and inhibitory intolerance of uncertainty. The expected results indicated that freshmen who procrastinate in their decisions during the pandemic are likely to use dysfunctional decision-making styles and are oriented toward the unacceptability of uncertainty.

“…In the past few years, most studies investigating the impact of COVID-19 on the educational system focused mainly on students' mental health (e.g., Bayham and Fenichel, 2020;Viner et al, 2020;Pfefferbaum, 2021), or academic achievement (e.g., Kuhfeld et al, 2020;Basith et al, 2021). In contrast, the financial security of students during the pandemic was rarely investigated (Kee, 2021;Walsh et al, 2021).…”

In this study, we investigated graduate students’ financial security during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the Spring 2022 semester, the continued changes brought on by the precautionary measures implemented presented difficulties for both faculty and graduates. In this mixed methods study, we surveyed graduate students (N = 258) at a public research university to explore the pandemic’s effects on their financial security. Through the sign test analyses, we found a significant decrease in graduate students’ financial security scores during the pandemic, and particular groups of students were more susceptible to decreased financial security. The thematic analysis further explored the financial security decrease and identified inflation and economic downturns, and the suspension of work or financial support as two main challenges graduate students confronted during the pandemic. Both quantitative and qualitative findings reflected the financial stress and hardship confronted by graduate students during the pandemic. It was implied that extra financial support and consultation should be provided to students with meager stipends or student loans. The results further informed the academic community to foster the culture of care inside academia, by addressing graduate students’ financial concerns properly in the post-pandemic period.
