This paper examins the psychological processes and neuroscientific mechanisms that underpin the learning process.

As highlighted by the above research, an individual’s emotions, motivation, and feelings of efficacy and self-control can have a significant impact on their learning outcomes.

In fact, the evidence suggests that this can happen at a behavioural, cognitive, biological, and neurochemical level.

Consequently, it is important that instructors are aware of how different factors can affect learning so that they can effectively support individuals to perform to the best of their ability.
