The Impact of Self-efficacy on College Students' Physical Education Learning Engagement:Moderated Mediating Effect
Objective:Based on the theory of self-efficacy and learning engagement,this paper explores the mechanism of the influence of self-efficacy,deliberate rumination and autonomous motivation on college students' learning engagement in physical education.Methods:Using questionnaire survey and mathematical statistics,2 754 undergraduate students were selected as subjects based on self-efficacy scale,learning engagement scale,deliberate rumination scale and autonomy motivation scale,and Mplus 8.3 was used for data regression analysis.Results:(1)Self-efficacy positively predicted college students'physical education learning engagement(β=0.405,t=13.639,P<0.01),and deliberate rumination positively predicted college students' physical education learning engagement(β =0.519,t=21.395,P<0.01).(2)Deliberate rumination played a part of mediating effect between self-efficacy and college students' physical education engagement path(β = 0.210,95%CI[0.178-0.244],P<0.01).(3)Autonomous motivation positively regulated the effect of self-efficacy on deliberate rumination(β = 0.297,SE =0.049,t=5.994,P<0.01),and positively regulated the effect of deliberate rumination on sports learning engagement(β= 0.241,SE= 0.712,t= 3.386,P<0.01).Conclusion:Self-efficacy,deliberate rumination and autonomous motivation are the important predictors of college students'physical education learning engagement.Self-efficacy not only directly and positively predicts the level of college students' physical education learning engagement,but also indirectly and positively predicts college students' physical education learning engagement through deliberate rumination under the moderation of autonomous motivation.Therefore,improving self-efficacy,stimulating autonomous motivation and developing active rumination thinking are effective strategies to intervene college students'physical education learning engagement,which has practical significance to improve the level of college students'physical education learning engagement.
