In secondary education, students undergo significant psychological, behavioral, and social transformations that can impact their academic motivation and overall well-being. A recent study investigates the intricate relationship between self-determination, emotional intelligence, and the support for autonomy among secondary school students.
Self-determination theory emphasizes the importance of autonomy, competence, and relatedness in fostering motivation. The findings suggest that students who possess higher emotional intelligence tend to exhibit greater self-determination in their academic pursuits. This connection highlights the role of emotional awareness and regulation in enabling students to navigate challenges effectively.
Moreover, the study underscores the importance of supportive environments where educators and parents encourage autonomy. When students feel supported in their choices, they are more likely to engage deeply with their studies and develop a sense of ownership over their learning.
In conclusion, fostering emotional intelligence and providing autonomy support can significantly enhance the self-determination of secondary school students, ultimately contributing to their academic success and personal development.
