Abstract

The tutor is the first person in charge of postgraduate training, and plays an important role in the development of postgraduate academic and scientific research capabilities. This research focuses on the influence of the tutor's guidance style on the research self-efficacy of postgraduates, and conducts empirical analysis with postgraduates of Beijing Normal University as the research object. The research results show that the guidance style of the supervisors of the postgraduates of Beijing Normal University is more biased towards the supporting style of supervisors, and the overall level of the research self-efficacy of the postgraduates is higher; Both supportive and controlled tutor guidance styles have a significant positive impact on the research self-efficacy of postgraduate students; Through the study of the combination of different tutor guidance styles, it is found that graduate students with high support and high control styles have the highest scientific research self-efficacy, and those with low support and low control group have the lowest research self-efficacy. The research self-efficacy of master graduate students with different combinations of tutor guidance styles presents significant differences. In order to further improve the self-efficacy of scientific research of graduate students, tutors should combine comprehensive guidance and differentiated guidance, adjust their own guidance style according to the actual situation of students, and give students timely and appropriate guidance.
