Abstract

The COVID-19 global pandemic has had a profound impact on colleges and universities around the world. There remains a paucity of research into the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic on college students’ motivation, cognitive strategies and metacognitive self-regulation. Grounded in a social cognitive theory, the results of the present study suggested that college students demonstrated statistically significantly higher use of motivation and cognitive learning strategies in an on-line learning environment. Second, the results of the present study indicated that maternal social support statistically significantly predicted motivation and cognitive learning strategies. Finally, the results of the present investigation demonstrated that college students’ resilience statistically significantly predicted motivation, cognitive learning strategies and metacognitive self-regulation.
