ABSTRACTThe present study examined the general hypothesis that social axioms (social cynicism, social complexity, religiosity, reward for application, and fate control) have main and interacting effects on domain-specific perceived academic control. Social axioms that assume personal control over life outcomes were hypothesised to be positively associated with perceived academic control, whereas social axioms that assume less personal control over life outcomes will be negatively associated with perceived academic control. The sample included 376 Filipino university students who responded to a self-report questionnaire. Multiple regression analysis examined whether the five social axiom dimensions and their two-way interactions predicted perceived academic control in mathematics. Results revealed that social cynicism and fate control beliefs negatively influenced students’ perceived academic control. In contrast, reward for application and the interaction of fate control and religiosity beliefs positively influenced perceived academic control. Implications of the findings of the study are discussed. |
