Influence of psychosocial factors and parent–student relationships on the academic engagement of TCM students: a structural equation modeling and multi-criteria decision-making fra... by Liang Shaoshuai, Peng Qian, Zhang Yiwen, Xu Meiru

“…Furthermore, the interplay between EQ, AQ, PR, and parent-student relationships, an underexplored dimension in higher education, may serve as a stabilizing force against academic stressors.MethodsThe study involved 428 Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) students who underwent comprehensive evaluations to assess EQ, AQ, PR, parent-student relationships, and academic engagement. Structural equation modeling (SEM) via SmartPLS analyzed causal pathways, while the VIKOR-AHP method addressed MCDM by (1) weighting criteria via AHP and (2) ranking interventions via VIKOR’s compromise-ranking, ensuring practical solutions amid real-world constraints.ResultsThis study examined the impact of EQ, AQ, PR, and parent-student relationships on the academic engagement of TCM students. …”
