Social and educational psychology have been concerned with analysing the variables that are both associative and predictive of adolescents' academic achievement as high achievement is believed to indicate excellent performance in school and promote better opportunities for selection of preferred academic specializations and subsequent career selection. This longitudinal study was designed to determine the magnitude of the variables in predicting their achievements. Proposed model and competing model in this longitudinal study had consistently illuminated career aspiration as a more dynamic variable, both as a predictor and as a mediator between career-related construct and academic achievement. This study provides implications that schools, counsellors, teachers and parents can exert a powerful influence on the career development of adolescents as the school is believed to be the most important venue where students learn to bridge education and the world of work. Parents can also encourage and support their adolescents' efforts to obtain good academic achievement by helping and supporting their career plan.

This volume focuses on concepts central to the understanding of the key features of individuality which undergo significant transformations throughout the adolescent period: Personality, self, and ego. While rooted in distinct theoretical traditions, these three concepts, in combination, capture the core aspects of the formation of the individual's unique sense of self or identity, a psychosocial development fundamentally associated with adolescence. Consistent with the developmental-systems models of person-context relations at the forefront of current human development theory and research, the articles within this volume focus on the dynamic, reciprocal relations between youth and key socializing agents within their ecologies. Nevertheless, the articles represented in this volume illustrate that when attempting to understand the development of personality- and self-systems, scholars differ in the extent to which they place primary emphasis on the individual, on the context, or on the relationship between the two.

Academic performance is a major concern for many college students. This study examined the influence of five mental health factors on academic performance (i.e., GPA), confidence in one’s academic performance, and functional academic problems. Those included alcohol abuse, drug abuse, depression, anxiety, and conduct problems. It was hypothesized that college students with difficulties in any of those areas would be prone to decreased academic performance and academic confidence relative to peers, and increased functional academic problems. Participants consisted of 249 college students, aged 18-25 years. Academic performance was assessed with university-verified GPAs, while academic confidence and functional academic problems were both assessed with sets of self-report survey items. The five mental health factors were all assessed with relevant scales from the Personality Assessment Inventory. Results indicated that all five predictor variables were significantly associated with both lower academic confidence and greater functional academic problems. However, only conduct problems were significantly associated with lower academic performance (i.e., lower verified GPA). Multiple regression equations indicated that only depression significantly contributed to the predictive model for academic confidence, while both depression and antisocial behavior significantly contributed to the predictive model for functional academic problems. No predictive model was tested for academic performance (GPA), since only conduct problems were associated with lower GPA. These findings indicate that substance use, depressed and anxious mood, and conduct problems may negatively affect college students in terms of decreased academic confidence and increased functional academic problems.

A historical perspective of adjustment problems of adolescents helps to place todays adolescents in proper focus as records concerning the status of adolescents and education across the countries have been pieced together. Since prehistoric days the status of an adolescent in society has been varied with the cultural concept of how a young person should be prepared to assume adult responsibilities though he has been formally studied for a brief span only since the beginning of the present century.

This study examined some student-related variables (interest in higher education, psychological resilience and study habit) as predictors of academic achievement among 131 (M (mean) = 28.17, SD (standard deviation) = 1.61) first year psychology students in the Introduction to Developmental Psychology class in UWI (The University of the West Indies), Cave Hill Campus, Barbados. They responded to four instruments: PAT (Psychology Achievement Test), IHES (Interest in Higher Education Scale), PRS (Psychological Resilience Scale) and SHS (Study Habit Scale). Descriptive Statistics, Pearson Product Moment Correlation and Stepwise Multiple Regressions were conducted. Findings revealed significant positive correlations between the student-related variables and academic achievement. The student-related variables also jointly contributed 46% of the variance being accounted for in academic achievement (R-square = 0.464, which is the square of the measure of correlation and an indication that the model is fit for future prediction of academic achievement among university students) and this was found to be significant. Additionally, it was found that interest in higher education was the best predictor of academic achievement and that psychological resilience and study habit were other significant predictors. These results were discussed in the light of improving these student-related variables for effective teaching of psychology and good academic performance. (Contains 3 tables and 2 figures.)

The purpose of the current study was to examine the roles of select intrapersonal and microsystem factors in high school adolescents' academic achievement. The selected combination of factors was hypothesized to be unique in their ability to explain greater proportions of variance in academic achievement in adolescents. A specific model through an ecological framework was proposed. Participants included 379 high school students (176 males, 193 females) from a midwestern, suburban high school that enrolls approximately 1,500 students. A variety of variables emerged as significant predictors of academic achievement, with social emotional learning, selfefficacy, socio-economic status, parental involvement, peer support, and teacher support all explaining significant proportions of variance in achievement, and some to stronger degrees than others. This lends support to the notion that learning is shaped by a myriad ecological factors. These findings are discussed with regard to their usefulness in understanding ways in which to target each of the investigated variables to ultimately increase academic achievement in adolescents.
