It also investigated the function of psychological capital in mediating the relationship between academic engagement, persistence and performance.Design/methodology/approach The study utilized a quantitative method and structural equation modeling using PLS-SEM version 3. A total of 900 questionnaires were issued to Chinese university students, and 814 data were analyzed.Findings Findings suggest that academic engagement and persistence significantly and positively impact psychological capital. Psychological capital is also mediated between academic engagement, persistence and performance. Additionally, the study made several recommendations for upcoming researchers and industry professionals.Originality/value Analyzing the pupils' academic achievement after COVID-19 reopening as it indicates their attention and engagement in the study.
