Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper aims at measuring the mediating effect of psychological wellbeing in the relationship between university students’ self-esteem and their academic achievement, as well as examining the direct and indirect effect of peer-support to academic achievement through psychological wellbeing. For these purposes, a quantitative research with specific reference to empirical survey was conducted with the active participation of 204 university students. Results of structural equation modelling (SEM) analysis indicate that there was a positive and significant mediating effect of psychological wellbeing in the relationship between self-esteem and students’ academic achievement. However, the direct effect of students’ peer-support to their academic achievement was greater compared to its indirect effect through students’ psychological wellbeing. This concludes that both psychological wellbeing and peersupport play significant roles in supporting the academic achievements of students. This study implies the significance of these variables to the academic achievement of students and accordingly government and university stakeholders should pay more attention in presenting these variables within the academic environment of university. Keywords: Self-esteem, Psychological wellbeing, Peer-support, Academic achievement, University students
