Designing and developing a structural model for managing student educational engagement (application of path analysis)

The aim of this study was to design and develop a structural model for managing students' educational engagement. Participants included 382 students of Hamadan University of Medical Sciences in the academic year 1399-1400 who were selected by simple random sampling. In order to measure the research variables, educational tolerance threshold, educational conflict management and positive educational beliefs questionnaires were used. Amos software and path analysis method were used to evaluate the proposed model. The results showed that, according to the values ​​of the obtained indicators, the data fit the research model; The educational tolerance threshold variable is able to predict cognitive conflict, behavioral conflict and emotional conflict in a positive and meaningful way; The findings also showed that the variable of positive educational beliefs positively and indirectly mediates the relationship between educational tolerance threshold and academic conflict management. Therefore, according to the results of this study, increasing the educational tolerance threshold and positive academic beliefs in students promotes their level of behavioral, cognitive and emotional involvement and provides the basis for optimal management of academic conflict.
