Abstract

Researchers investigated the role of grit and self-regulation in learning on academic achievements of medical students. Participants were 205 medical students, have completed the questionnaire including the Grit Shot Scale (Duckworth & Quinn, 2009), seven indicators of self-regulation in learning and current academic achievement. The results show that grit is consistent and adaptive to one indicator of self-regulation in learning, which is intrinsic purpose. Grit does not determine student academic achievement. Therefore, student involvement in self-regulation in learning serves as a mediator between grit and better outcomes on student academics. In contrast, there is only one indicator of self-regulation in learning that perfectly mediates grit and student academic achievement. Implications of the findings for research and additional instructions will be discussed.
