Contribution to Self-efficacy and Time-management to Enhance Reading Literacy

Reading is a basic knowledge and provides for competitiveness in this globalization and technology era, however, it is challenging for middle school students who are still in the identity crisis phase. This study aims to describe self-efficacy, time management, and reading literacy skills, and also analyze the contribution of self-efficacy and time management towards reading literacy skills of the Indonesian language in middle school students. The research method used a correlational relationship. A total of 372 middle school students participated in the research. The sample was gathered using probability sampling, which was a cluster random sampling technique. Data were collected using a self-efficacy scale, time-management scale, and reading literacy evaluation scores. Then, they were analyzed using multiple linear regression, after the assumption test. Results found that self-efficacy and time management separately aren’t significantly related to reading literacy skills, yet together they significantly contribute to reading literacy skills in the Indonesian language among middle school students. Self-efficacy contributed to 9.1% and time management contributed 8.6% to reading literacy skills. The proposed regression model is adequate for predicting the reading literacy variable. Keywords: reading literacy, self-efficacy, time management

College Student Learning Preparedness: Do Time Management Skills and Sleep Quality Matter?

The success of the learning process is more probable when students demonstrate high levels of readiness to learn. However, evidence from previous studies suggests that not all students possess this readiness. This study aims to investigate the individual and combined effects of time management and sleep quality on students' preparedness for learning. Utilizing a quantitative survey design, the research engaged 178 students from the Kerinci State Islamic Institute. Sample size determination followed the Krejcie & Morgan formula, with sample selection executed through Simple Random Sampling. Data collection incorporated the Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale, Time Management Scale, and Sleep Quality Scale. Analysis of the research data involved simple and multiple linear regression. Results indicate that both time management and learning readiness significantly influence students' preparedness for learning, with time management exerting a stronger impact. This research carries substantial implications for addressing students' learning readiness challenges through the promotion of effective time management strategies and the assurance of adequate sleep quality. Such interventions can be efficiently implemented through higher education's guidance and counseling services, involving counselors and additional support structures.

Additionally, only conscientiousness trait showed a significant relationship with student’s time management.

Translation and psychometric evaluation of the Chinese version of the Nursing Time Management Scale.

Reasonable and effective time allocation can promote the improvement of medical care service quality. This study aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt and validate the Chinese Nursing Time Management Scale (NTMS). Using a cross-sectional survey, 345 clinical nurses were selected from June to September 2023 for a general information questionnaire and Nursing Time Management Scale (NTMS) study. Item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and validation factor analysis were used to verify the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of Nursing Time Management Scale. The Chinese version of the Nurses' Time Management Competency Scale includes 17 entries in 3 dimensions: planning activities and setting goals, coordinating activities and procedures, and organizing nursing activities. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total scale was 0.966. Exploratory factor analysis showed that the cumulative variance contribution of the three male factors was 97.44%. The NTMS has acceptable validity and reliability and can be used to evaluate the nursing time management skills of Chinese clinical nurses.

University students’ free time management and quality of life: the mediating role of leisure satisfaction

The impact of free time management and leisure satisfaction on quality of life is distinct, however, the role of satisfaction in enhancing quality of life through free time management remains uncertain. Hence, the objective of this research is to explore how leisure satisfaction acts as a mediator between free time management and the levels of quality of life among university students. Additionally, this study aims to analyse these concepts in relation to gender, age and the number of days of activity participation. Within this particular framework, a total of 213 university students willingly participated in the survey, which included the administration of the “Free Time Management Scale,” “Leisure Satisfaction Scale,” and “Quality of Life Scale.” The analyses employed the Independent T-Test, Pearson Correlation, and Linear Regression methods. The mediating effect was analysed using Structural Equation Modelling. The study found significant relationships between gender, free time management, and life quality. There was a significant relationship between free time management, leisure satisfaction, and quality of life (p < 0.05). Leisure satisfaction partially mediated the quality of life-free time management relationship. As age and physical activity grow, males have a higher standard of living, and time allocation and quality of life improve. Furthermore, it was found that students who effectively managed their time experienced an enhanced quality of life, as evidenced by their increased satisfaction with leisure activities. Notably, the level of satisfaction with well-managed time was identified as a crucial factor in this association.

INVESTIGATION OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LEISURE TIME MANAGEMENT AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN TERMS OF INTERGENERATIONAL DIFFERENCES

This study was conducted to examine the relationship between leisure time management and the quality of life of individuals of different generations who have received sports education and are still continuing their education. The population of the study consists of individuals who are currently studying or graduated from the Faculty of Sports Sciences and Physical Education and Sports School in Istanbul province. As the sample group, Istanbul Topkapı University, Marmara University, and Istanbul Cerrahpaşa University were selected because they have applied units (Faculty of Sports Sciences and School of Physical Education Sports). A total of 318 students of the Faculty of Sports Sciences and School of Physical Education and Sports who were studying and graduated from these universities participated voluntarily. After the participants were informed about the scales, the data were collected. The data were analysed in a computer environment using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) programme. The normal distribution of the scores was analysed by examining normal distribution curves, skewness kurtosis values, normal distribution curves employing histograms, and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test values used when the group size is greater than 50. As a result of the skewness and kurtosis analyses of the data, it was determined that the data were suitable for parametric test conditions. In the analysis of the data, frequency, arithmetic mean and standard deviation; independent group t-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to examine the differences between variables, and the Tukey test, one of the Post Hoc tests, was used to determine between which groups the difference occurred. As a result of the statistics obtained; a significant difference was found in the sub-dimensions of Goal Setting and Method sub-dimensions of the leisure time management scale according to the generations of the participants. It is thought that older individuals make life plans and time management better.&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Article visualizations:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="/-counters-/soc/0661/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Investigation of the Relationship Between High School Students' Level of Participation in Recreation Activities and Their Time Management

This study aimed to examine the relationship between recreation participation levels and time management of high school students studying in different high schools. In the study, the relational screening model was used as part of the survey model. The data collection tool of the study consisted of three parts: personal information form, "Recreation Participation Scale" developed by Procidano and Heller (1983) and adapted into Turkish by Sevil (2015) and "Time Management Scale" developed by Britton and Tesser (1991) and translated into Turkish by Alay and Koçak (2002). The study group consisted of students of Incirliova Sports High School, Nazilli Science High School, Bozdoğan İsmet Sezgin Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School and Bozdoğan Anatolian High School in Aydın province in the 2022-2023 academic. Statistically, frequency analysis, reliability coefficient calculations, Pearson correlation analysis and Manova analysis were performed. The analyses were performed by adhering to a 95% confidence interval. A statistically significant difference was detected between the participants' recreational activity and gender, grade and doing sport variables, the cognitive activity sub-dimension and gender variable, the mean score of recreation participation and doing sport variable, and the time management of the participants and gender, high school type, income and doing sport variables (p&amp;lt;0.05). As a result, high school students have moderate levels of participation in recreational activities and time management. Participation of the high school students in recreational activities also decreased as their time management levels increased.

Examining Leisure Management Skills of Medical Faculty Students

Aim: The aim of the study was to examine the leisure time management skills of medical school students, who were thought to be in great need of good time management in this study. Methods: The sample of the study consisted of a total of 327 students studying at Konya Selcuk University Faculty of Medicine. A sociodemographic data form and the Leisure Time Management Scale (FTMS) consisting of 15 questions were applied to the participants. The results were evaluated at p&amp;lt;0.05 significance level. Results: As a result of the analysis, it was seen that the leisure time management scores of the medical students were at a moderate level. In the gender variable, statistically significant differences were determined according to daily, weekly, monthly, and annual plans for leisure time and having a regular activity schedule (p&amp;lt;0.05), while no significant difference was found in terms of the age variable (p&amp;gt;0.05). Conclusion: It has been observed that medical students lack sufficient knowledge about how to spend their free time effectively, and their participation in regular activities or events is occasional. The main reason this participation is rare is that they have too many school subjects.

Factors influencing time management skills among nurses in North West Bank, Palestine

BackgroundIn today’s companies, time management abilities have grown as a significant predictor of nurses’ success. Organizations have simplified their internal operations and flattened their organizational structures in an effort to increase productivity and cut expenses. As a result, successful time management skills are particularly crucial for nurses in recently restructured healthcare organizations. This study aimed at exploring factors influencing time management skills among Palestinian nurses.MethodsCross-sectional quantitative study of all nurses (715) working in private and government hospitals and primary healthcare centers in north Palestine was conducted. Time management skills were measured on a continuous scale using the Nursing Time Management Scale (NTMS), Arabic version. The scale measures various aspects of time management including goal setting, planning, scheduling, and organizing activities. The relationship between time management skills and background variables was assessed using the multivariate linear regression.ResultsThe average total score for NTMS scale was 63.39 out of a total score of 90. This score indicates relatively good time management skills among the respondents. The multivariate linear regression results showed that females obtained slightly lower scores than males, coefficient = -2.36, p = 0.043. Nurses in primary care centers had significantly higher scores than nurses who work at hospitals, coefficient = 4.47, p = 0.004. The type of healthcare organization emerged as a significant factor predicting time management skills. Nurses in private hospitals had worse time management skills than nurses in government hospitals, coefficient = -12.27, p < 0.001. Nurse supervisors had better time management skills than staff nurses, coefficient = 4.01, p = 0.023. Nurses working in non-teaching hospitals had worse time management skills than nurses in teaching hospitals, coefficient = − 3.86, p = 0.001. Nurses who did not attend a time management course had worse time management skills than nurses who attended time management course, coefficient = − 4.05, p = p < 0.001.ConclusionsHealthcare institutions should consider organizational and individual factors to improve the time management skills of their staff. Time management training interventions are proven and effective policies that are recommended to be adopted by all healthcare centers.

Correlation Analysis Between Time Awareness and Morningness-Eveningness Preference.

The circadian clock is adjusted by light inputs via the retinohypothalamic tract. Because environmental light is controllable for modern humans at the individual's preference although under social schedules, individual differences in time-related psychology and behavior may be associated with morningness-eveningness preference (M-E preference). To examine this hypothesis, we used the Time Management Scale and Time Anxiety Scale to quantify time-related psychology and behavior. These scales aim to evaluate "awareness of effective time management and utilization" and "anxiety about uncontrollable time schedule and unexpected time-related outcome", respectively. According to our correlation analysis using mid-sleep time as a marker for M-E preference, we obtained results supporting our hypothesis in the correlation between the M-E preference values and the Time Management Scale scores, with larger "time estimation" and "taking each moment as it comes" scores associated with more morningness and eveningness, respectively. Considering that modern humans likely become night owls under artificial light conditions, it appears plausible that lower awareness of time management leads to more eveningness.

An Investigation of the Relationship among High School Students' Self-Regulation, Free Time Management, and Self-Esteem

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between self-regulation, free time management, and self-esteem variables among high school students. The research sample consisted of 193 girls and 276 boys, totaling 469 students studying in different types of high schools. The Personal Information Form, the Adolescent Self-Regulatory Inventory, the Free Time Management Scale, and the Two-Dimensional Self-Esteem Scale were used to collect data. Independent samples t-test analysis was conducted to compare the self-regulation, free time management, and self-esteem scores of the students in terms of gender and status of doing sports. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to compare the scores based on grade level, type of high school, and types of leisure time activities. In addition, correlation analysis was conducted to test whether there is a relationship between self-regulation, free time management, and self-esteem scores of the students. The results of the analyses indicated that there was a significant difference in self-regulation scores among the students based on gender, while no significant difference was found in free time management and self-esteem scores. However, significant differences were found in self-regulation, free time management, and self-esteem scores based on the status of doing sports. There was a significant difference in self-regulation scores according to grade level, while no significant differences were found in free time management and self-esteem scores. A significant difference was found in self-regulation and free time management scores based on the type of high school, but no significant difference was found in self-esteem scores. When examined in terms of leisure time activity type, significant differences were found in self-regulation, free time management, and self-esteem scores. The grade point averages of the students showed a negative correlation with their daily average free time, yet a positive correlation with their self-regulation scores. Self-regulation scores were found to be positively related to free time management and self-esteem scores. In conclusion, it is believed that the exploration of the relationships between high school students' grade point averages, free time, self-regulation skills, free time management, and self-esteem scores may play a significant role in helping high school students achieve positive outcomes.

ANALYSING THE TIME MANAGEMENT THOUGHTS OF PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS PREPARING FOR KPSS IN TERMS OF DIFFERENT VARIABLES

&lt;p&gt;The aim of this study is to reveal the level of time management thoughts of pre-service teachers preparing for KPSS. For this purpose, the thoughts of the pre-service teachers about time management were analysed in terms of different variables. In the study, survey method from quantitative research was used to determine the situation. In 2019, pre-service teachers in Isparta and Burdur constituted the study group of the research. Voluntary 408 pre-service teachers participated and expressed their opinions. In the scales applied, 60 scales were not included in the evaluation due to the fact that not all of the sections in the personal information section were not filled in, there were items that were not marked in the second section, and there were double markings in the items. As a result, the study group consisted of 348 pre-service teachers. In this study, Personal Information Form and Time Management Scale were used as data collection tools. In the form, questions about the pre-service teachers' gender, age, department, employment status, marital status, and the duration of preparation for the exam were included. The Time Management Scale used in the study was taken from İşcan's (2008) study and adapted to pre-service teachers preparing for KPSS. İşcan translated and adapted the scale developed by Britton and Tesser (1991) into Turkish. In the analysis of the data, frequency and percentage values were found from descriptive statistics. Since the data were normally distributed, Independent Sample t-test was used to analyse the variables consisting of two categories from parametric tests, and One-Way Analysis of Variance was used when there were more than two groups. The significance level was taken as .05. The following results were obtained in the research: pre-service teachers' thoughts about time management were found to be at "medium" level. While there was a significant difference in the pre-service teachers' thoughts about time management according to gender, marital status, duration of preparation for the exam; there was no significant difference according to age, the department they studied, and employment status.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Article visualizations:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="/-counters-/soc/0089/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Leisure Management Attitudes of University Students and Influencing Factors: A Cross-Sectional Study

Objective: This study endeavors to determine university students’ leisure management attitudes and the factors that affect these attitudes. Methods: The research design was descriptive. The sample study consisted of 704 undergraduate students enrolled in different departments of health sciences. The data of the study were collected by using a demographics form and the Leisure Time Management Scale. In the analysis of the data, Independent t-Test and a Mann–Whitney U Test, One-Way ANOVA and Kruskal-Walls tests were used. Results: Students’ leisure management scores were found to be above the mean. Respondents differed in the dimensions of “goal setting and methods”, “leisure time attitudes” and “evaluation” depending on the variable of department attended. Significant relationships were found between the variables of department, grade level, leisure activities and having hobbies and the leisure time management total scores. Conclusions: The study found that students should be supported in setting goals and planning. Since leisure time is a metric of one’s quality of life, it is recommended that social spaces and social programs be created for young people where they can make effective use of their free time.

Visual statistical learning based on time information.

People can extract and learn statistical regularities from various aspects of everyday life. The current study examined whether people have a mechanism to learn regularity based on time information and investigated whether sensitivity to time information is modulated by individual time management. In the familiarization phase, participants were required to observe a visual sequence of objects. Although the objects were presented in a random order, the amount of time for which the objects were presented was organized into successive triplets (e.g., 850-1,000-700 ms). In the subsequent test phase, two three-object sequences were presented. One sequence was a timing triplet that had temporal regularities. The other was a foil created from three different triplets. Participants were required to judge which sequence was more familiar based on the familiarization phase. The results showed that the triplets were successfully discriminated from the foils. These results were also observed for blank intervals. The current findings also revealed that although visual statistical learning was expressed when participants observed the temporal regularities of shapes tied to the corresponding durations during familiarization, this learning overshadowed them from indicating generic timing regularities when they were untied to objects. Furthermore, participants with high scores on the Time Management Scale showed a higher extent of visual statistical learning on object durations than those with low scores. These results suggest that people extract and learn regularities based on time information and that statistical learning based on time information is correlated with individual time management.

Mediating Role of Self-efficacy Beliefs in the Relationship Between Family Emotional Climate and Time Management With Academic Stress in University Students

Background: Students’ minds fail to quickly analyze the mass of information to which they are exposed when experiencing academic stress, resulting in irreparable physical and mental damage. The present study aims to investigate the mediating role of self-efficacy beliefs in the relationship between family emotional climate and time management with academic stress in university students. Methods: This is a correlational-descriptive study conducted with path analysis. The statistical population consisted of all male and female students of Islamic Azad University of Ahvaz in the academic year of 2019-2020, of whom 222 students were selected as the sample via the convenience sampling method. The research instruments included the educational stress scale, the family emotional climate questionnaire, the time management scale, and the self-efficacy scale. The proposed model was evaluated by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Results: The results revealed a significant relationship between family emotional climate and academic stress (β=-0.57, P=0.001), family emotional climate and self-efficacy beliefs (β=0.27, P=0.001), time management and self-efficacy beliefs (β=0.23, P=0.001), and self-efficacy beliefs and academic stress (β=-0.15, P=0.007). However, no significant relationship was found between time management and academic stress. The results also indicated that self-efficacy beliefs could significantly mediate the indirect relationship between family emotional climate and academic stress (P=0.016), and also the relationship between time management and academic stress (P=0.017). Conclusion: Study findings confirmed the proposed model’s goodness of fit; therefore, the model can be employed to effectively identify the factors causing academic stress in university students.

Manajemen Waktu dan Self Regulated Learning pada Siswa

This study aims to examine the effect of time management with self-regulated learning on high school students. The sample in this study amounted to 133 students. The measuring instrument in this study uses a self-regulated learning scale developed by Boekaerts (2000) with a reliability coefficient of 0.929. The time management scale is based on three-time management factors developed by Macan (1994) with a reliability coefficient of 0.884. The data analysis technique used is simple linear regression analysis. The results obtained in this study have a significant positive effect between time management and self-regulated learning in Class XI SMA students. The implication of this research is that time management ability has an influence on students' self-regulated learning, so that the higher the time management, the higher the students' self-regulated learning ability.
