Successful and productive learning is closely related to academic motivation and academic self-efficacy. However, inorder to be a good dentist, dental students must be successful in theoretical and clinical fields. The aim of this study was to investigate thelevels of academic motivation and academic self-efficacy beliefs ofdentistry students and to evaluate the effect of these factors on academic achievement. Material and Methods: This study was conducted on 346 students studying at Gaziantep University Faculty ofDentistry in 2018-2019 academic year. The data of the study was collected by using three measurement tools: Descriptive Characteristicsform, Academic Motivation Scale and Academic Self-efficacy Scale.The obtained data were evaluated by using SPSS 22 program, Students' t test, ANOVA test, Kruskal-Wallis test and correlation analysis. Results: The students' self-efficacy beliefs (16.8±3.8), totalacademic motivation level (66.9±12.3) and the sub-dimensions; selfexceeding (23.2±4.2), discovery (24.3±4.9) and use of knowledge(19.3±4.8) mean scores were high, and there was a negative correlation between academic motivation and self-efficacy (p <0.05). In addition, there was a positive correlation between academic motivationand academic achievement (p <0.05). Conclusion: The students canbe more successful in education if their academic motivation is supported.

Anahtar Kelime: Diş Hekimliği Öğrencilerinde Akademik Motivasyon ve Akademik Öz Yeterliğin Akademik Başarıya Etkisinin Araştırılması: Analitik Bir Çalışma
Öz: Diş hekimliği öğrencilerinin üniversite hayatı boyunca yerine getirmeleri ve başarılı olmaları gereken birçok akademik görevleri ve sorumlulukları bulunmaktadır. Öğrencilerin başarılı ve verimli bir öğrenim hayatı geçirmeleri, akademik güdülenme ve akademik öz yeterlik seviyeleri ile yakından ilişkilidir. Bununla birlikte diş hekimliği öğrencilerinin iyi bir hekim olabilmeleri için teorik ve klinik alanlarda başarılı olmaları zorunludur. Bu çalışma, diş hekimliği öğrencilerinin akademik güdülenme ve akademik öz yeterlik inancı düzeylerinin incelenmesi ve bu faktörlerin akademik başarı üzerine etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışma, 2018-2019 eğitim-öğretim döneminde Gaziantep Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi’nde öğrenim gören 346 öğrenci üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmanın verileri, Tanımlayıcı Özellikler Formu, Akademik Güdülenme Ölçeği ve Akademik Öz Yeterlik Ölçeği olmak üzere üç ölçme aracı kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler SPSS 22 programı kullanılarak, Students’ t testi, ANOVA testi, Kruskal-Wallis testi ve korelasyon analizleri ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin akademik öz-yeterlik inançları (16,8±3,8), akademik güdülenme düzeyi toplam puan ortalaması (66,9±12,3) ile alt boyutlarından kendini aşma (23,2±4,2), keşif (24,3±4,9), bilgiyi kullanma (19,3±4,8) puan ortalamalarının yüksek düzeyde olduğu ve akademik güdülenme ile akademik öz yeterlik arasında negatif anlamlı ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0,05). Bunun yanı sıra akademik güdülenme ile akademik başarı arasında pozitif korelasyon görülmüştür (p<0,05). Sonuç: Öğrencilerin akademik güdülenmeleri desteklenirse eğitimde daha başarılı olabilecekleri söylenebilir. Ayrıca ileriye dönük longitudinal çalışmalarda bu özelliklerin nasıl kazandırılması gerektiği irdelenmelidir.
