Do Engineering Students Possess Higher English Self-Efficacy Beliefs than Other Students in Saudi Arabia? A Comparative Study Using ANOVA

Indian Journal of Psychology and Education
Artilces 2024 , Vol 14 , No. 1 , pp 1-7

Authors: Konabe Bene* and Sofia A Adan*

Abstracts

Although the concept of Self-efficacy beliefs has been the subject of numerous research in many fields, studies that showed interest in English self-efficacy, especially when English is used as a medium of instruction in higher education in Saudi Arabia, are very limited or non-existent. The present study aimed at assessing the strengths of Engineering, Law, Finance, and other university students’ self-efficacy beliefs to complete their higher education in English as a medium of instruction in Saudi Arabia and to compare the different fields of study on the English self-efficacy variable. Descriptive statistics and one-way Analysis of variance were utilized to analyze the data and answer the research questions. Findings showed that participants regardless of their fields of study possess high levels of English self-efficacy beliefs for writing, listening, and speaking. Regarding comparisons, results showed statistically significant mean differences for self-efficacy for speaking. The four Post-Hoc mean comparisons were found to be statistically significant. When compared with Law students, Finance, and others, Engineering students scored significantly higher on the spoken English self-efficacy beliefs subscale. A few limitations were mentioned, and recommendations made for future similar studies.

Impact of Extended Family System on the Academic Performance

Indian Journal of Psychology and Education
Artilces 2024 , Vol 14 , No. 1 , pp 8-13

Authors: Amber Dubey*

Abstracts

There are basically three types of Family Systems, viz: Nuclear Family, Joint Family AND Extended Family. In a Nuclear Family, a couple lives with their 2-3 children under one roof. An Extended Family comprises of 10-20 members or can be more than that. In an Extended Family, many families and many people live together, very close to each other OR under one roof. (Extended family, 2022). A Joint Family is same as Extended Family, except the fact that as compared to an Extended Family, in a Joint Family all members live together under one roof, which is not in the case of Extended Family System. (Indira, n.d.) Academic Performance refers to the marks scored by an individual/student/child in various subjects in various terms/semesters and their analysis.This research paper was an attempt to discover/unfold the impact of an Extended Family System on the academic performance of students. According to the best knowledge of the researcher, the literature reviewed by the researcher, does not include any national study that focused purely on the impact of Extended Family System on the Academic Performance of students and hence this gap was covered by this study.This research used only Primary Data which was collected through questionnaires. The study revealed that Extended Family System had a positive as well as negative impact on the Academic Performance of students.

Keywords: Nuclear Family, Extended Family, Joint Family, Academic Performance

Body Image and Sexual Satisfaction Among Young Adults

Indian Journal of Psychology and Education
Artilces 2024 , Vol 14 , No. 1 , pp 22-27

Authors: Saumya Chauhan* and Pragyan Dangwal**

Abstracts

This study aims to investigate the relationship between body image and sexual satisfaction among young adults, while also exploring potential differences in this relationship between men and women. The sample consists of 100 young adults aged 15-30 years. Two standardized questionnaires, the Body Self-Image Questionnaire (BSIQ-SF) and the Index of Sexual Satisfaction Scale (ISS), are used to collect data. The BSIQ-SF assesses various aspects of body image, such as appearance evaluation and satisfaction with different body parts. The ISS measures sexual satisfaction using Likert-type items. The research design employed is a correlational design with an ex-post facto design. The study hypothesizes a positive correlation between body image and sexual satisfaction, suggesting that individuals with more positive body image would report higher levels of sexual satisfaction. Additionally, the study explores potential gender differences in the impact of body image on sexual satisfaction, aiming to determine if the relationship varies between men and women. The findings from this study will contribute to a better understanding of the association between body image and sexual satisfaction among young adults. It has implications for promoting positive body image and sexual well-being, which are crucial for individuals' overall psychological and emotional health. The results can inform interventions and support services aimed at enhancing body image and improving sexual satisfaction among young adults, fostering healthier attitudes towards both body image and sexuality.

Role of Anger and Strategies of Regulating Emotions in Satisfactionwith Life in Old Aged Persons

Indian Journal of Psychology and Education
Artilces 2024 , Vol 14 , No. 1 , pp 28-32

Authors: Sachin Kumar*

Abstracts

The study was conducted to examine the contribution of anger and various cognitive strategies of regulating emotions in satisfaction with life in old age. Previous studies have demonstrated that the health, quality of life and subsequent satisfaction are negatively influenced by the experience of anger, aggressive or hostile behavior. The present research is concerned with the various cognitive strategies to deal with negative emotion, specifically anger, which were hypothesized to predict life-satisfaction of old-age people. For this purpose, a sample of 126 participants, who were 60 plus in age, was taken with purposive sampling method. Data, collected through administering ‘Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire’, ‘Negative Emotion Scale’ and ‘Satisfaction with Life Scale’, was analyzed with the help of ‘Pearson Product-moment Correlation’ and ‘Multiple Regression Analysis’. The results showed that ‘positive reappraisal’, ‘putting into perspective’ and ‘refocus on planning’ were positively, whereas ‘self-blame’, ‘rumination’, and ‘anger’ were found to be negatively associated with life-satisfaction. These strategies of regulating emotional experience and expression and anger, predict 37 percent of the variance in the scores on satisfaction with life.Positive Reappraisal was found to be the most significant predictor.

Keywords: Cognitive Emotion Regulation, Anger, Satisfaction with Life.

Effect of Stress on Life Satisfaction amongst Working Adults

Indian Journal of Psychology and Education
Artilces 2024 , Vol 14 , No. 1 , pp 33-37

Authors: Neha Kalia*, Nidhi Meena** and O. P. Sharma***

Abstracts

Over the past few decades, there has been a notable transformation in the workplace, with many employees experiencing heightened stress and pressure in response to the demands of today’s professional environment. The study aims to investigate the impact of stress on the life satisfaction of working adults. The research involved a sample of 60 working adults aged between 26 and 45 representing various services and business organizations. The Satisfaction with Life Scale developed by Ed Diener, and the Perceived Stress Scale, created by Sheldon Cohen, were employed for data collection. Participants were asked to complete psychological measures through Google Forms. Data analysis included calculating means for both male and female participants and conducting correlation analyses to explore relationships between variables. The findings revealed a significant negative correlation between scores on the Satisfaction with Life Scale and the Perceived Stress Scale (r = -0.76), indicating that the overall life satisfaction of working adults is adversely affected by stress. Additionally, it was observed that the mean life satisfaction score for females (M=26) was higher than that for males (M=23). Research findings can be used in the development of interventions and strategies within the workplace to alleviate stress and enhance life satisfaction by implementing stress management programs, wellness initiatives, or changes in organizational policies and practices.

Indian Journal of Psychology and Education
Artilces 2024 , Vol 14 , No. 1 , pp 54-60

Authors: Jaya Shukla*, Ram Manohar Singh**

Abstracts

The objective of the study is to gain an understanding of the concept of Metacognition and Memory; and the ways in which it is explained by different researchers. It also aims to explore the relationship between Memory and Metacognition which includes how we monitor our knowledge. Sometimes, our memory system fails to recall the target from it, at that time, metacognitive judgment of Feeling Of Knowing helps the individual to look for target by using different mechanisms namely Trace Access Account and Accessibility Model. Another objective of the study is to consider the impact of Feeling Of Knowing on accuracy of memory performance. An idea about the broad meaning of metacognition was drawn through the consideration of various conceptual definitions given by different researchers. Review was undertaken to comprehend how metacognitive judgments and abilities are understood using memory performance. It was concluded that research is required in the identification of role of contextual information on FOK, to see whether FOK is dependent on the mood of the person at the time of metacognitive judgment and is there any effect of time of encoding on FOK about subject domain information.

Authors: Anjana Choudhary*, Neha Kalia**, and O.P. Sharma***

Abstracts

The Well-Being of police personnel is a critical concern as they face escalating levels of job stress. The demanding nature of police work, involving exposure to violence, crime scenes, and the constant pressure to maintain public safety, significantly impacts the mental and physical health of officers. The study seeks to examine the relationship between Well-Being, Emotional Intelligence, and Stress concerning Type A and B Behavioural Patterns among police personnel. The research involved 150 police officers (25-50 years). Police officers were administered using Goldberg’s General Health Questionnaire (Gautam, Nijhawan & Kamal, 1987), Police Stress Inventory (Pienaar & Rothmann, 2006), Emotional Skills and Competence Scale (Vladimir &Taksic, 2010),and Type A and B Behavioural Pattern Scale (Dhar & Jain, 2002). The study involved the computation of Descriptive Group Statistics, including means and standard deviations, for all groups. Additionally, a Pearson Product-Moment correlation analysis was conducted to assess the significance of the relationship, both in terms of extent and direction, between General Health, Emotional Intelligence, and Stress concerning Type A and Type B Behavioural Patterns among Police Personnel.The findings revealed that General Health and Job Stress are highly negatively correlated with Type A and Type B Behavioral Patterns and Emotional Intelligence is strongly associated with Type A and B Behavioural Patterns. These findings could inform targeted interventions to enhance the overall Well-Being of police personnel, identifying stressors in the workplace and guiding the development of stress management programs.
