Study Crafting and Self-Undermining in Higher Education Students: A Weekly Diary Study on the Antecedents.

In addition, we introduce the concepts study crafting and self-undermining to the study demands–resources framework by examining the mediating role of engagement and exhaustion in the relationship between study characteristics and study crafting and self-undermining. Over four consecutive weeks, 205 higher education students answered a questionnaire about their weekly study demands and resources, their well-being (i.e., engagement, exhaustion), and their study crafting and self-undermining behaviors.

The second aim was to test the measurement invariance of the Brief-SEI across three countries (Denmark, Finland, and Portug…
