Parental Rearing attitudes were operationalized through the score on the Parental Rearing Style Scale (dimensions: warm, cold, permissive and restrictive upbringing of the father and mother). Empathy was operationalized through the score on the Empathy Quotient, locus of control was operationalized using the Externality Scale, while social anxiety was measured using the Social Anxiety Scale. The results of the hierarchical regression analysis, in which the first model consisted of the gender variable, showed that this model as a whole is statistically significant (R2 = .021, F(1,295) = 6.290, p = .013).

Gender was singled out as a statistically significant predictor within this model (β = .145, p = .011).

Perceived academic control (PAC) allows students to recognize their responsibilities in online learning and achieve better learning outcomes. This study aimed to examine whether the experience of boredom in online teaching can be a mediator in the relationship between PAC and academic achievement of pupils and university students. The sample consisted of 18 pupils and 111 university students, 30% male and 70% female, aged between 18 and 29 (M = 21.41; SD = 2.45), who attended online classes during the second year of the pandemic. The results of the study confirmed the hypothesis that the experience of boredom in online teaching is a statistically significant mediator in the relationship between academic control and average grade (b = .192, 95% CI [.073, .347]). Still, this mediation is partial, because the direct effect between academic control and grade point average remains significant (b = .323, 95% CI [.111, .536]). Also, PAC is associated with pupils’ and university students’ academic achievement, and this connection is mediated by emotions related to teaching. Boredom in the classroom is closely associated with low PAC, resulting in lower academic achievement. We can conclude that pupils and university students more often perceive learning as boring due to the inability to control teaching activities in the research conducted during the pandemic, which may be in correlation with poorer achievements. Given the probability that online teaching will continue, implications for research and practice as well as future research opportunities are discussed.

In transactional stress theories, coping is defined as all effort that a person undertakes to cope with the external and internal demands of a stressful situation. This research used the Endler and Parker classification of coping strategies: problem-focused, emotionfocused coping strategies, and avoidance. The dimensions of psychological well-being were included from the Carol Ryff model: autonomy, self-acceptance, purpose in life, environmental mastery, positive relations with others, and personal development. The sample of the research consisted of 216 participants, aged from 18 to 25 years, with the average age being 21.73 years. Most participants were female, 81.40%. The results of the canonical correlation analysis point to a positive relationship between problem-focused coping and all dimensions of well-being, as well as a negative relationship between emotion-focused coping and all dimensions. Avoidance was positively connected with positive relationships with others. These analyses suggest that experiences in which adolescents successfully face controllable developmental stressors via problem-focused coping are essential for a healthy sense of well-being. Adolescents build key developmental capacities such as positive relations with others, autonomy, feelings of meaning, and purpose exactly through facing problems and mastering new capabilities and experiences. Excessive use of emotion-focused coping may bring short-term relief, but at the price of long-term well-being and maturity. One area of possible interventions is preventive adviser work with young people for them to develop optimal problem-focused strategies, such as situation analysis, searching for possible alternatives, careful preparation of actions, etc. Keywords: coping strategies, psychological well-being, adolescence, developmental crises","PeriodicalId":272628,"journal":{"name":"ГОДИШЊАК ЗА ПСИХОЛОГИЈУ","volume":"08 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131408123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both models containing self-differentiation as predictors were significant. The first model that predicted certainty about mental states explains 32.1% of the variance (R² = .32, F(6,98) = 7.732, p = .000), with I position (β = .459, p = .000) and emotional cutoff (β = -.245, p = .024) as significant predictors.

The obtained results indicate that different aspects of the differentiation of self can predict certainty and uncertainty about mental states in the female sample, but also that when it comes to phenomenon such as capacity for mentalization, certain sociodemographic variables (e.g., age, education) might play more important role then it was previously thought.

Among the instruments used were the Young’s Schema Questionnaire, the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire and Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scales. The sample included 320 subjects (Nfemales = 215; M = 33.5; SD = 9.6).

Schema domains are important predictors of criterion variables, provided that the highest percentage of explained variance is in relation to depression. Psychological inflexibility has been shown to be a partial mediator of all relations between all schema domains and manifestations of depression, anxiety and stress.
