Abstract

Numerous facts, studies, and practical observations substantiate the profound influence of students’ attitudes towards learning on the educational process, its outcomes, and the overall quality of education, particularly when they are training to become educators. Moreover, given the inherent individual disparities, students’ learning attitudes exhibit variability [1]. In light of the current societal context and the rapid pace of development, our study aims to investigate the learning attitudes of university students. In our research, we utilized the Likert Scale-Total-Add Scale Method, employing the “learning attitude scale” devised by psychologist Tao De Qing. We assessed the study attitudes of 1020 students from Mongolian universities and various Chinese universities through the aforementioned questionnaire. The findings underwent comprehensive analysis, involving component analysis, exploratory factor analysis, T-Test, and correlation analysis, all executed using SPSS 25 software. The results of the study affirm the significance of emotional, cognitive, and behavioral components in the learning process, underscoring their intimate connection with students’ learning attitudes. While students’ gender does not exhibit any significant correlation with their learning attitudes, factors such as citizenship, nationality (administrative jurisdiction), field of study, and living environment are found to be relevant.
