Abstract

Mental health challenges among university students have become a pressing concern, particularly within higher education environments characterised by academic demands, social transitions, and sociocultural pressures. This study investigates the predictive role of socioemotional well-being (SEWB) in shaping mental health outcomes among university students in Malaysia. A quantitative, cross-sectional design was employed, involving 442 undergraduate students from higher education institutions. Socioemotional well-being was assessed using a multidimensional framework encompassing emotional regulation and social functioning, while mental health was measured using the Mental Health Inventory (MHI-38). Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression analysis. The findings revealed a strong and significant positive relationship between SEWB and mental health (r = 0.70, p < 0.05). Regression analysis further demonstrated that SEWB is a significant predictor of mental health (β = 0.70, p < 0.05), explaining 48.9% of the variance (R² = 0.489), with the model achieving statistical significance (F = 210.403, p < 0.05). These findings underscore the critical role of socioemotional well-being as a key determinant of student mental health and highlight its potential as a strategic focus for intervention in higher education across Southeast Asia.

Abstract

Growth mindset has been widely embraced in educational psychology as a construct that promotes motivation, resilience, and academic persistence. However, its rapid diffusion into educational practice has been accompanied by conceptual dilution and pedagogical misuse. This opinion article critically examines the contemporary deployment of growth mindset in educational settings, arguing that it has increasingly been reduced to a motivational slogan detached from instructional quality, assessment systems, and institutional responsibility. Drawing on educational psychology and learning sciences literature, the article problematizes individualistic and decontextualized interpretations of growth mindset and highlights the risks of moralizing effort while obscuring structural inequities. Rather than rejecting the construct, this paper calls for a critical re-engagement with growth mindset as a theoretically grounded, context-sensitive, and pedagogically accountable framework. The article contributes to ongoing debates in educational psychology by questioning prevailing assumptions and urging a more rigorous conceptualization of growth mindset in research and practice.
