This research examines how high-school students' self-efficacy for self-regulated learning changed during different stages of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cross-sectional retrospective design with N=802 for Study 1 and N=455 for Study 2.
Latent growth curve analyses were performed to evaluate self-efficacy trends over time.
Surveys assessed perceived teacher support, effortful control, and COVID-19-related life disruption.
Study 1 revealed significant differences in self-efficacy before and during the initial lockdown.
Study 2 showed a declining trend in perceived self-efficacy over time, with COVID-19-related life disruption adversely affecting self-efficacy.
Higher perceived teacher support correlated with increased self-efficacy during the lockdown.
