Abstract

Academic Engagement is a positive state of mind, fulfilment and feelings toward tasks related. characterized by three dimensions, namely vigor, dedication, and absorption. Previous studies exhibited that Social Support contributed significant impacts toward Academic Engagement. In this research, Social Support is measured by its 5 forms, namely emotional support, esteem support, instrumental support, information support, and network support as well as its 3 sources, namely friend, family, and significant others. Applying the non-experimental quantitative research method, data is collected by distributing questionnaires to the participants and analysed by using single regression and multiple regression analysis method. The result of the research shows that both forms of social support and sources of social support contributed 9,2% towards academic engagement (R2 = 0,092 and p = 0,000 < 0,01), forms of social support contributed 8,7% towards academic engagement (R2 = 0,087 and p = 0,000 < 0,01), and sources of social support contributed 3,7% towards academic engagement (R2 = 0,037 and p = 0,001 < 0,01).
