Revised Study Process Questionnaire (R-SPQ-2F), ready to run

A 20-item instrument measuring two approaches to learning in tertiary students: Deep Approach (driven by intrinsic interest; intention to understand) and Surface Approach (driven by fear of failure; intention to reproduce). Each approach decomposes into Motive and Strategy subscales (5 items each), yielding four 5-item subscales in total.

20 items · 4 sections · 5-point Likert scale
