Abstract
Conscientiousness as a personality trait has been recognized as a predictor of students’ academic achievements in numerous empirical studies. The aim of the study was to determine the role of life orientations, moratorium and transitive orientation, in the relationship between conscientiousness and academic achievement. The study was conducted using Social Participation Questionnaire and the NEO-FFI Personality Inventory among 111 full-time students aged 20-25. Conscientiousness turned out to be a predictor of both academic achievement and life orientation, but these orientations did not mediate the relationship between conscientiousness and academic achievement.

Oliver, The mediating roles of coping and adjustment in the relationship between personality and academic achievement, British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2015, 85(3), s. Jednym z argumentów może być pozytywna postawa wobec uczenia się i nauczycieli osób o wysokiej orientacji tranzytywnej. W związku z tym, że osoby o silnej orientacji moratoryjnej deklarują poczucie bycia traktowanym przez nauczycieli przedmiotowo, a ponadto cechują się poczuciem bliskości rówieśników i silnej przynależności do grupy rówieśniczej, co może je zniechęcać bądź odciągać od obowiązków związanych z uczeniem się, postawiono hipotezę o orientacji moratoryjnej jako orientacji osłabiającej zależność osiągnięć akademickich od sumienności
