    Abstract:
    The study of gender differences in the academic engagement of university students is necessary for the targeted use of various educational technologies in the educational process in higher education. In this regard, it is important to conduct a comparative analysis of the components of engagement in higher education among girls and boys. The study used the methods «Emoticons» (Gizhitsky, 2016), «Diagnostics of student learning motivation» (Badmaeva, 2004), «Scales of academic motivation» (Gordeeva, Sychev, Osin, 2014), «Self-assessment of emotional and personal well-being» (Karapetyan, Glotova, 2020), pilot author's questionnaires «Inclusiveness in learning sessions», «Academic microdeviations» and «Self-report on academic performance». 263 university students aged 16–25 (202 girls and 61 boys) took part in the study conducted by an online survey. The Mann-Whitney U-test was used in data processing. The results of the study revealed that according to the indicators of academic engagement of students, more directly related to learning, there are no gender differences, and the belonging of girls and boys to the same socio-demographic group – «studentship» comes to the fore, since the norms and requirements for higher school students do not differentiate depending on the gender of students; gender differences were found in indicators of academic engagement, which are more indirectly related to learning, since these differences are largely due to the influence of spontaneous and purposeful impacts from broader layers of society, such as family upbringing, communication in peer reference groups, the impact of mass media and the Internet, including information and psychological technologies of social engineering.

    Abstract:
    The study of age-related features of academic engagement of university students is relevant, since some students by the time they complete their studies do not sufficiently master the necessary knowledge and competencies. This requires an in-depth study of the phenomenon of academic engagement, its various aspects, among which the age aspect plays an important role. The study used the methods «Emoticons» (Gizhitsky, 2016), «Diagnostics of students' educational motivation» (Badmaeva, 2004), «Scales of academic motivation» (Gordeeva, Sychev, Osin, 2014), «Self-assessment of emotional and personal well-being» (Glotova, Karapetyan, 2020), pilot author's questionnaires «Inclusion in training sessions» and «Academic microdeviations». Students also provided information about their academic performance over the past semesters, age and course of study at the time of the survey. 263 university students aged 16–25 years (202 girls and 61 boys) took part in the study conducted by an online survey. The Mann-Whitney U-test and Spearman correlation analysis were used in data processing. The results showed that the age factor was largely manifested in the behavioral component of engagement in learning in both female and male samples; in the motivational and cognitive components of engagement, gender differences were found, manifested in a more pronounced effect of the age factor in girls; in the female and male samples, the effect of the age factor was not manifested in the resulting component of academic engagement, as well as in value and emotional components.
