The Effect of Psychosocial Factors on Academic Success in University Students

Psychological well-being is defined as the person fulfilling his/her potential in a completely good mood. It is seen as the result of a life lived well and is an important factor for students to adapt to university life. Psychological well-being includes dimensions such as self-acceptance, establishing positive relationships, autonomy, mastery of the environment, personal development and purpose in life. Students who have just started university have to adapt to a new learning model and the academic pressure on them is also increasing. This period of students' lives is considered to be one of the stages when anxiety is highest and psychological well-being is lowestThe examination of the potential predictive relationship between psychosocial factors and psychological goodness described earlier in a university student, provides a more holistic perspective for potential educators, researchers and health practitioners. Although the literature was examined, although the effects of some of the psychosocial factors on university students, physiotherapy and rehabilitation students have been found to have insufficient studies on the effect of psychosocial factors on academic success.

For this reason, in our study, physiotherapy and rehabilitation students will be evaluated with the level of empathy, self -esteem, social/emotional competence, mental good formation, situational/continuous anxiety (anxiety), motivation, satisfaction and loneliness surveys from life and the relationship between them and the academic achievements of the students will be investigated. .
