The statistical population comprised all undergraduate female students (School of Public Health and Environment) at Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, totaling approximately 2,422 individuals. A sample size of 480 students was selected using stratified random sampling based on Morgan's table. The data collection tool was a standardized questionnaire whose validity was confirmed by experts, and its reliability was verified through a pilot study and Cronbach's alpha calculation.</p> <p><strong>Findings:</strong> The findings indicated that four factors—metacognitive beliefs, cognitive emotion regulation, goal orientation, and self-efficacy—had a significant impact on students' metacognitive awareness in the English language course. Among the endogenous variables, self-efficacy had the greatest effect (0.19), while metacognitive beliefs had the least effect (0.164) on the variable of metacognitive awareness.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Overall, it must be acknowledged that given the goodness-of-fit indices and the comprehensive evaluation of the model within the studied group, the proposed model demonstrated suitable fit indices and can be utilized in decision-making and policy-making processes.</p> Metacognitive Awareness Metacognitive Beliefs Cognitive Emotion Regulation Goal Orientation Self-Efficacy https://www.journals.kmanpub.com/index.php/psywoman/article/download/2725/3898
