Robotics has become a crucial domain in technology education, helping students to improve their abilities in assembly and programming. Despite the considerable research that has gone into the learning performance associated with robotics, little work has been done on the cognitive processes involved in learning this subject. The purpose of this study was to develop an instrument (based on the theoretical framework of MSLQ), with which to evaluate the motivation of high school students to learn robotics and the strategies they employ. Fifty participants in the open category competition of the World Robot Olympiad 2010 completed the self-reported questionnaire (RMSLQ-HS). Thirteen factors and fifty one items were extracted using exploratory factor analysis. Implications for the educational application of robotics and research suggestions related to RMSLQ are also discussed.

INTRODUCTION: Today, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training is highly important to save the lives of people in need of CPR by those present at the scene, and it is useful to study new training tools in this field. This study aimed to determine and compare the effect of basic CPR face-to-face and electronic training on the self-efficacy of high school students. METHODS: This randomized controlled field trial study was conducted on second-grade high school students in Tabas, Iran, referring to high schools by an announced call. The samples (n=62) were randomly selected and divided into two groups of e-learning and face-to-face training (n=31 each). Both groups completed the Basic Resuscitation Skills Self-Efficacy Scale at the baseline and 1 week and 2 months after the training intervention. The collected data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 20) using statistical measures of mean and standard deviation and statistical tests of t-test, Chi-square, and repeated measures analysis of variance. FINDINGS: The results showed that both e-learning and face-to-face training methods significantly increased the self-efficacy of high school students in CPR in 1 week and 2 months after training. In addition, a significant difference was observed between the two methods regarding the mean score of basic CPR self-efficacy 1 week after the intervention (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: Considering the benefits of e-learning on students' CPR learning, this method should be used seriously for basic CPR self-efficacy training.

The purpose of the current investigation is the construction and validation of the Self-Efficacy Scale (ACAES) through a deliberate sample of 1101 Chilean school students. The methodological procedure was carried out from the classic approach perspective of the theory of the test, complementing the exploratory factor analysis with the models of the structural equation modeling (SEM). The exploratory factor analysis of the 18 statements of the scale showed a structure of 3 factors, namely: confidence in the task; effort made in performing the task and comprehension of the task. The statistics associated to the instrument show a 57.037% of explained variance and a Cronbach alpha of the total scale of 0.917. At confirmatory level (SEM), the model obtained a goodness degree of global adjustment (Chi Square /gl) equal to 2.87, a RMSEA equal to 0.049, as well as, adequate adjustment index, namely, CFI=0.963; IFI=0.963 and RMSR (standardised)=0.0359. The psychometric properties account for a valid and reliable instrument for measurement of academic self-efficacy in school context, as well as, to facilitate cognitive and metacognitive processes as self-regulatory learning strategy.

Leadership is one of the most decisive factors in the development and progress of an organization. With a capable leadership that will have an impact on the progress of the organization. Public leadership by women has less legitimacy by society. Self-leadership has a significant effect on self-efficacy, self-efficacy has a significant effect on performance, self-leadership has a significant effect on performance. In order to optimize the ability of women's public leadership, self-efficacy in leadership by female headman indirectly affects the quality of leadership and service to the community. This study aims to explore the self-efficacy of female headman in the region and identify factors that influence the self-efficacy of female headman when in office as village government. This research was conducted through a self-administered questionnaire. In addition, exploration and confirmation of factor analysis were carried out. The validity and reliability tests were carried out before using exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The results of the factoring will show the communalities table, and after the rotation, a loading factor will be formed which will show the interpretation of the factors that have been formed, in particular giving names to the factors that are considered to represent these indicators. The results showed that 2 factors were formed which influenced the self-efficacy of female headman in leading village officials. These factors are Leadership Self Efficacy and Development of the Leadership Self-efficacy. The factor 1 is namely Leadership Self Efficacy which includes leading change, delegating tasks, influencing members, being flexible. Factor 2, namely Development of the Leadership Self-efficacy which includes self-identification, motivating members, leading the organization, and encouraging the organization.
