Abstract

This study explored the impact of private learning and self-regulated learning time during middle and high school years on core competencies during the first university year, utilizing data from the 5th to 9th waves of the Korean Educational Longitudinal Study. A sample of 2,946 students entered universities in the 9th wave was analyzed. Employing a multivariate growth mixture model, students were classified into four types based on their longitudinal patterns of private learning and self-regulated learning time. Analysis of factors influencing the classification of each type revealed that students’ individual factors and family factors collectively influenced private learning and self-regulated learning time. Additionally, differences in core competencies during the first university year across each type indicated that students with higher self-regulated learning time during middle and high school exhibited higher levels of core competencies during university. This study is significant in that it analyzes students’ longitudinal patterns of learning time by considering both private and self-regulated learning time, and it highlights the importance of structuring learning time during middle and high school to cultivate high levels of core competencies.
