(2025) PSYK12 20242Department of Psychology
- Abstract
- Students' sense of belongingness is a vital factor for students' academic success and psychosocial well-being, but the liaison between lecturer and classmates mindset, student engagement in schoolwork and sense of belonging is still unclear.

Results also showed the teachers mindset was not a significant predictor to students' sense of belonging in the linear regression. With engagement in schoolwork as a dependent variable... (More)

With engagement in schoolwork as a dependent variable there were correlations with the class mindset and sense of belonging but neither was a significant predictor of engagement. The study emphasizes the importance of classmates with a growth mindset and how this can lead to a greater sense of belonging (Less)
- Abstract (Swedish)
- Studenters känsla av tillhörighet är en avgörande faktor för studentens akademiska framgång och psykosociala välmående, men sambandet mellan föreläsare samt klasskamraters tankesätt, studenters engagemang och känsla av tillhörighet är fortfarande oklart. Studiens syfte är att undersöka om lärarens samt klassens upplevda mindset (growth vs fixed) predicerar studenters känsla av tillhörighet till klassen. Studien bygger på en kvantitativ enkätstudie bland 89 studenter som studerar i Lund. Resultatet visade att klassens mindset predicerade studentens känsla av tillhörighet och engagemang. Resultatet visade även att det fanns en svagare signifikant korrelation mellan lärares mindset, det var ingen signifikant prediktor. Engagemang visade även... (More)

Resultatet visade även att det fanns en svagare signifikant korrelation mellan lärares mindset, det var ingen signifikant prediktor. Engagemang visade även en signifikant korrelation med tillhörighet men ingen signifikant prediktor. Studien understryker vikten av att klasskamrater har ett growth mindset och att detta då kan leda till en större känsla av tillhörighet. (Less)
