Abstract: Background: A majority of secondary school students' score has been usually below the set pass mark in their final national examinations. As a result, this low achievement hinders individuals from pursuing careers that they desire as well as contribute to lack of enough work forces in key sectors of the economy. Studies on academic achievement have been conducted on different psychological variables but very few have been done on self-regulated learning in Kenya. Therefore, this study sought to examine self-regulated learning as a correlate of academic achievement of secondary school students.......
