Considerable investments in theoretical and basic research over several decades
have yielded insightful and detailed models of academic learning that
simultaneously articulate facets of knowledge, cognition, motivation and emotion.
Recently, researchers have begun to empirically study the role of students’
personal attributes and psychological processes underlying their learning and
academic performance. One such aspect is known as self-regulated learning or
Self-Regulation in Learning (SRL). Self-regulation has the origin both from social
and cultural issues. After Bandura’s social learning theory, this concept has
gained momentum.
