Abstract
BackgroundResearch emphasizes the relevance of mindsets for SRL and academic achievement. AimsThis paper reports three studies that aim to detect profiles of mindsets about SRL and intelligence, examine their relationship with students’ SRL, study-related beliefs, and academic achievement, and replicate the findings across samples. SampleParticipants were Ntotal = 633 university students, with NStudy1 = 254, NStudy2 = 187, and NStudy3 = 192. MethodsLPAs were run to identify mindset profiles, and Mplus’ auxiliary (BCH) function was applied to examine mean differences across profiles. ResultsAll three studies identified the mindset profiles “Entity-Theory”, “Balanced-Theory”, and “SRL-Theory”. The analyses revealed an SRL-Theory advantage regarding SRL, study-related beliefs, and academic achievement. ConclusionsThese are the first studies to explore mindset profiles based on mindsets about SRL and intelligence. The identified mindset-based meaning systems provide diagnostic information for teaching and tailored interventions and stimulate the advancement of SRL and mindset theories.
