چکیده (انگلیسی):

This study aims at analyzing the relations between self-directed learning, personality traits and academic achievement. The
participants were 121 undergraduate students from a Romanian university. Self-rating scale of self-directed learning (SRSSDL)
and IPIP–50 were used. Academic achievement was measured by the academic results collected for all the participants at the end
of the academic year. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were used in examining the relationship between Big Five
personality traits and learner self-direction. The results revealed that self-directed learning and personality traits are correlated
and that self-directed learning predicts academic achievement
