Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study examines the relationship between boredom, self-efficacy, and learning burnout among non-English major college students in an English class at a normal university in Lanzhou. Utilizing questionnaires on classroom boredom, learning burnout, and academic self-efficacy, the findings reveal moderate levels of classroom boredom, particularly concerning satisfaction and challenge. Learning burnout is generally above average, especially regarding diminished personal accomplishment. Self-efficacy is also at a moderate level. Analysis indicates that classroom boredom positively correlates with learning burnout and negatively with self-efficacy, while self-efficacy negatively correlates with learning burnout. Mediation analysis shows that self-efficacy partially mediates the relationship between classroom boredom and learning burnout.
