摘要:Recent studies in educational psychology highlight the role of motivational variables
such as trait-like perseverance. Studies have linked such variables (e.g., grit and
mindset) to academic performance. However, research has reported inconsistent
findings in explaining academic achievement differences. Drawing from a sample of
pre-university students (N = 309), the present study assesses the efficacy of both grit
and mindset in predicting academic achievement. The results suggest that neither grit,
nor mindset was predictive of academic achievement. These findings have significant
theoretical and practical implications.
