Resumen	The Academic Help-Seeking Scale measures students' inclination to seek academic help, their preferred sources of assistance (instructors, peers, tutors), and barriers that inhibit help-seeking (fear of judgment, embarrassment, preference for independence). Developed by Karabenick and colleagues in the 1990s, the AHSS recognizes that seeking help when confused or struggling is not a sign of weakness but a critical academic skill that separates successful from struggling students. By identifying whether students avoid help due to shame, lack of awareness, or other barriers, this scale enables targeted interventions promoting adaptive help-seeking.	The Study Skills Assessment Questionnaire measures the habitual study practices, time management, concentration, and learning motivation of students. Originating from the foundational Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes (Brown & Holtzman, 1964) and refined in contemporary versions, the SSAQ identifies whether students employ evidence-based study techniques (spaced practice, self-testing, active recall) or ineffective strategies (cramming, passive rereading). This information is invaluable for academic support professionals designing skill-building interventions tailored to student needs.
