| Summary: | According to the recent literature connecting to institutions of higher learning, mentoring communication
practices have two important features: interpersonal communication and communication openness. These
communication practices may lead to an improved mentees’ study performance. Although many studies have been
done, the role of mentoring communication practices as an essential determinant has been left unexplained in
the institutions of higher learning research literature. Therefore, this study was undertaken to examine the effect
of mentoring communication practices on study performance. A survey method was employed to collect selfadministered
questionnaires from undergraduate accounting, economics and management students at a public
research university in Malaysia. The results of SmartPLS path model analysis demonstrate that interpersonal
communication does not act as an essential determinant of mentees’ study performance, while communication
openness does act as an essential determinant of mentees’ study performance in the organizational sample.
Additionally, this study offers discussion, implications and conclusion. |
