Data were collected through Neuman`s ­quality of learning experience standard questionnaire, Hong and O’Neil self-regulation questionnaire, and Vallerand`s academic motivation questionnaire­. The data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The total score of quality of learning experience and its subscales resources, content, and flexibility had a significant positive relationship with academic motivation. Also, the total score of self-regulation and its subscales had a significant positive relationship with academic motivation. The results of multiple regression analysis revealed that quality of learning experience and self- regulation would positively and significantly predict academic motivation and could explain around 12.1% of the academic motivation variance. Conclusion: The results suggest that universities should focus on improving the quality of student learning experiences.
