Sarikaya, İsmail; Sökmen, Yavuz
This study aims to determine the serial mediatory effect of metacognitive writing awareness and writing self-efficacy in the relationship between primary school students' self-regulation and writing success. The study participants were 408 fourth-grade students attending public primary schools in two cities in eastern Turkey. This study is a correlational survey research. We used SPSS and PROCESS macros to analyze the data. The study revealed strong positive relationships between writing success and self-regulation, metacognitive writing awareness, and writing self-efficacy. It showed that the serial mediation role of metacognitive writing awareness and writing self-efficacy was significant. As one of the first studies to address these relationships, the study fills the gaps in the literature on writing success and sheds light on interventions to improve writing skills at the primary school level.

Sarikaya, Ismail
The relationship between creativity and writing success is a matter of curiosity for many researchers, educators, and people in general. Many would likely expect that creative individuals would have higher writing success. This study aimed to determine the mediating roles of writing self-efficacy, writing motivation, and writing disposition in the relationship between creativity and writing success of primary school students. A relational research model was used in the study conducted with 300 primary school students. Correlational analysis and mediating variable analysis were performed with the data obtained with five data collection tools. The analysis results showed significant relationships between the variables: Creativity, writing self-efficacy, writing motivation, and writing disposition were found to significantly predict writing success. In addition, the findings revealed that writing self-efficacy, motivation, and disposition each have a parallel mediating role between creativity and writing success. The study's results are discussed in connection to the pertinent research literature, and recommendations are made.
