Abstrakt: | Learner autonomy is currently regarded as an important educational aim. Therefore the main
research problem was formulated as follows: which selected individual traits and environmental variables
correlate with how students perceive the difficulty of their autonomous learning? The hypothesized
relationships between research variables were presented in the form of a model. The main aim of the
study was to verify the model in which temperamental traits and autonomy support from teachers and
parents are treated as independent variables, student`s autonomy, self-efficacy as a learner, learning
motivation and preferences towards autonomous tasks - as mediating variables and perceived autonomous
learning difficulty – as a dependent variable. Autonomous learning difficulty was measured by a
questionnaire encompassing difficulty in reflective evaluation of learning, motivation to learn and
planning. Temperamental traits were measured by EAS Questionnaire, general autonomy by Adolescent
Autonomy Questionnaire created by Noom (1999) and co-workers. Questionnaires measuring remaining
variables were constructed for the purpose of the research. The participants were 454 students of middle
and secondary school. Autonomous learning difficulty questionnaire proved to be reliable and valid.
Student`s self‑ efficacy and autonomy were most strongly related to autonomous learning difficulty.
Student`s perception of high autonomous learning difficulty was related to the low level of parental
autonomy support. The relationships hypothesized in the model can be generalized to population but the
model does not explain satisfactory amount of dependent variable variance. |
