The sample consisted of 610 students undertaking the early childhood education degree, primary education degree or double degree at the University of Barcelona. Using descriptive and correlational methods, the study found a moderate level of academic engagement. Academic performance (average grade) and the subscales of vigour, dedication and absorption (as facilitating variables) were identified as being involved in the development and maintenance of academic engagement.The findings aim to inform and enhance tutorial action plans to improve student engagement in teacher training programs.11 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) YingyIing, C. et al., 2025http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Formació del professoratTutoria (Ensenyament)Motivació de l'aprenentatgeRendiment acadèmicTeacher trainingTutoring (Teaching)Learning motivationAcademic achievementinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7638342026-01-22info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
