Abstract
Self-regulation during learning is important, but how can we orient people to do this effectively and flexibly? Our research (N = 6438) tested the importance of a strategic mindset in promoting greater cognitive flexibility, and in turn greater use of effective self-regulated learning strategies—along with higher academic performance.
