Self-theories regarding general intelligence and English ability were measured from two countries (Korea and Pakistan) and their relationships with self-reported overall academic achievement and English language achievement were examined. No significant mean differences between the two countries were found regarding college students' self-theories. There were significant mean differences in overall academic achievement and English achievement between the two countries. Both the overall academic achievement and English achievement were significantly correlated with various self-theories while taking both samples together. Achievement measures were predicted by self-theories of general intelligence and English language ability. The current study highlighted the relationship between self-theories about general intelligence and English language ability and their relationship with self-reported achievement in two cultural contexts. This research also introduced new instruments to measure self-theories that can be used in studying self-theories in different domains.

The purpose of this study is to find the grounds for nursing students and teaching professors to confirm the importance of planning and preparing academic careers according to proper time management by determining the learning style exactly for themselves. For this purpose we investigated the learning style and time management behavior of the nursing student in university. The data was collected for 1 months from Nov. 1 to Dec. 2, 2013 in four universities which located in D city and C province. The research tool were used to measure of the learning style, time management behavior and self-directed learning. The participants were 246 nursing students at university who understand the purpose of study and agree to answer it. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, stepwise regression using the IBMSPSS/WIN 19.0 program. The result of this study was that the predicting factors for self-directed learning were time management behavior(${\beta}=.629$, p<.001) and adjustment to university life(${\beta}=.153$, p<.001). The variables explained the self-directed learning by 51.4%. This study shows that professors have to encourage students to realize the importance of effective time management for planning, performing and evaluating the academic career for themselves and take into account the related programs about self-directed learning.

The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of step-by-step educational comic book behavior of the elementary school students and their reading levels on their learning competencies. To this end, qualitative research with focus group and deep interviews was conducted with students on different reading levels. During their repetitive reading activities, the students tended to use various educational comics within the same subjects area on their corresponding reading levels. Such behavior led the students to further read other books than comics in the similar subjects areas, and by doing so, the books acted as an important reference to the students' class materials. It was found that the students' such behavior has positive impact on the improvement of their learning competencies. It is hoped that this study will be supportive to develop self-study methods and effective reading guidance plans by improving the usage of educational comics.
