Abstract

This study explored the personal value orientations of local Chinese college students. It examined the effects of self-transcendence values on cooperative attitude, cooperative behavior, and the perceived learning effectiveness of CL among EFLs at the university level. The sample included 204 adolescents (183 females) with a mean age of 20.08 years (20.08±0.642). Utilizing structural equation modeling, our findings revealed that: (1) there is a prioritization of self-transcendence (ST) values over self-enhancement (SE) values among the participants; (2) ST values had a direct positive effect on cooperative attitudes and the perceived learning effectiveness of CL among the participants; (3) cooperative attitudes significantly mediated the relationship between ST values and cooperative behavior; (4) cooperative attitudes and cooperative behavior sequentially mediated the relationship between ST values and the perceived learning effectiveness of CL. We discuss enhancing ST values as a strategic approach to improve outcomes of Cooperative Learning (CL).
