Description
Adult learners who can steer their own study habits do better, but the steering differs by person and country. Vaculíková checks a questionnaire on this skill in the Czech setting and compares 1,711 adult learners across four countries.
The questionnaire resolved into four parts: impulse control, goal orientation, self-direction, and decision making. That shape held up the same way in Poland, Serbia, Slovakia, and the Czech sample. Scores on the good traits, goal orientation and decision making, rose with age, schooling, and inner drive, while the weaker ones fell. No gender gaps appeared inside any country. Country averages differed mainly on those same two good scales. The author concludes the tool travels well, and that personal traits, more than nationality, set strong self-regulators apart.
