| Description | The presented study is focused on mapping the topics of intentional self-regulation and coping in early and middle adolescence and selected contexts as gender differences and academic achievement. In this area we were interested in the relationship of self-regulation mechanisms, ways of spending free time and also the development of self-regulation in the context of coping, self-efficacy and self-esteem during adolescence. A significant connection between self-regulation and active coping strategies was found. We also found out that higher levels of elective selection and optimisation are associated with academic outcomes. Suggestions for following research and implications of our findings will be discussed. |
