Bu
araştırmada, üniversite öğrencilerinin akademik kontrol odağı, başarı amaç
yönelimleri ve kendini sabotaj düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek
amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini 2018-2019 eğitim-öğretim yılında Kilis 7
Aralık Üniversitesi Muallim Rıfat Eğitim Fakültesinde öğrenim gören öğrenciler
oluşturmaktadır. Fakültede öğrenim gören tüm öğrencilere ulaşmak mümkün
olduğundan örneklem alma yoluna gidilmemiştir. Bu kapsamda çalışmaya gönüllü
olarak katılan 286 öğrenciden elde edilen verilerle analizler
gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, akademik dışsal kontrol odağının ve
performans-kaçınma yöneliminin üniversite öğrencilerinin kendini sabotaj
düzeylerini pozitif yönde anlamlı bir şekilde yordadığı, öğrenme-yaklaşma
yönelimlerinin ise negatif yönde anlamlı bir şekilde yordadığı belirlenmiştir.
Akademik içsel kontrol odağı, öğrenme-kaçınma yönelimi ve performans-yaklaşma
yöneliminin ise öğrencilerin kendini sabotaj düzeylerini anlamlı bir şekilde yordamadığı
tespit edilmiştir. Son olarak üniversite öğrencilerinin kendini sabotaj
düzeylerindeki varyansın yaklaşık %29’unun öğrencilerin akademik dışsal kontrol
odağı, öğrenme yaklaşma ve peroformans-kaçınma yönelimleri ile açıklanabildiği
sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.
