| dc.description.abstract | This study aims to determine the effect of grit and self-efficacy on academic
motivation among Batak ethnic group students. The research method used is a
quantitative correlational method with a sample size of 1,172 Batak ethnic group
students, employing convenience sampling. Data collection utilized the Likert
scale, specifically the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) in Indonesian, consisting
of 30 items; the Grit Scale in Indonesian, comprising 18 items; and the General
Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) in Indonesian, comprising 10 items. The research data
were analyzed using multiple linear regression. The results showed that,
simultaneously, both independent variables influenced academic motivation (F =
211.651, p<0.005) with an adjusted R-square value of 0.265, meaning that
approximately 26.5% of the variance in academic motivation could be explained by
this research model. The results of the stepwise regression test demonstrated that
grit has a greater influence on academic motivation among Batak ethnic group
students, with an effective contribution of 13.61% (p < 0.005), while self-efficacy
contributes effectively at 12.95% (p < 0.005), indicating that both variables
significantly influence academic motivation. | en_US |
