This study aimed testing the structural relationships between self-efficacy of researching, the social factors and researching-educational environment with researching-educational performance in students of higher education. The research method was descriptive and correlational. Statistical population includes all 4180 Graduate students Colleges of Dentistry, Medicine, Pharmacy and Nursing of Medical Sciences Mashhad through Cochran formula sample 183 students were determined and were selected through stratified random sampling method. For the collection of required data questionnaires self-efficacy of researching, educational-researching environment, social factors and educational-researching questionnaire were used. The correlation matrix, path analysis and Goodness of Fit Index with use of software Lisrel 8.5 were used for data analysis. With the implementation of structural equation modeling, It was found that the proposed model is a good fit (NNFI=0.92, RMSEA=0.067). Although the overall proposed model was a good fit but as the results showed Path coefficients g the social factors and researching-educational environment to self-efficacy of researching and performance were not significant, so that only coefficient β self-efficacy of researching to performance was significant. The results of this reserch supports of the mediating role of self-efficacy in relation the social factors and researching-educational environment with performance.

In recent decades, creating and fostering self-regulated learning skills in students has become one of the educational goals.thus, The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between self-regulated learning strategies and with perception of parenting styles of students in Ferdowsi University of Mashhad. The research method was descriptive correlational. Statistical population included all undergraduate students of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad. The statistical population mentioned a size sample of 352 individuals (30% male and 70% female) were selected by random stratified relative. Research instruments were the “Perception of Parents Scale” (POPS)., and the “students achievement goal orientations & -motivated strategies for learning questionnaire (MSLQ)”. Data was analyzed by using both descriptive (Mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation, Multiple regression, Multivariate Analysis of Variance). The results of Pierson Correlation Coefficient revealed that there is significant and minus relationship between Authoritarian style with self-regulatory and cognitive learning strategies (P<0/05). But there is significant and positive relationship between Authoritative style with self-regulatory and cognitive learning strategies. Results of multiple regression revealed that self-regulatory and cognitive learning strategies can be predicted by Authoritative style (P<0/05). In addition, the results of MANOVA indicated that there is significant difference between male and female students in authoritative styles, self-regulatory and cognitive learning strategies (P<0.05). but there is significant difference between in educational groups only in self-regulatory learning strategies. Parents must be informed of the results of the research and the correct style of parenting as pamphlets, workshops, special sessions and had taught them.

The purpose of this study was An investigation of the Effectiveness of metacognitive techniques training on girl students Self-efficacy in high schools of Isfahan city. Present study was performed by quasi-experimental method with pre-test - post-test and follow-up. The statistical population was all high school girl students in the school year 1391-1392 in Isfahan city that sample groups were randomly selected among them by cluster sampling method. measurement instruments in the study was demographic questionnaire and Sherer self-Efficacy Scale (SES) that performed after intervention the post – test, and follow up test was performed four months later. findings were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistical test and software SPSS-20. The results of covariance analysis showed that presenting intervention based on metacognitive techniques training cause increasing 71/2% of self-efficacy in post-test step and increasing 70/6% of This feature in follow up step (P≤005). Based on findings of this study can conclude that presenting intervention based on metacognitive techniques was effective in increasing self-efficacy; thus this study suggested using metacognitive techniques in order to increasing self-efficacy in students.
