Method: The present study is applied in terms of its purpose and it is descriptive-correlational in terms of its nature and method. The participants of this study were the whole students of Tabriz Payam-e-Noor University in 2016-2017. Among whom 223 were chosen using stratified random sampling method. Four types of measurement instruments were used in the present study including e-learning readiness of Watkins et al. (2004), motivating beliefs of Pintrige et al., (1991), Self-regulated learning strategies in online and web-based learning of Bernard et al., (2008), and behavioral tendency to web-based learning of Davis et al., (1989). Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data in AMOS and SPSS software. Results: The findings of this study indicated that the given conceptual model was confirmed statistically with respect to the goodness of fit indices. Moreover, e-learning readiness through the mediating role of motivational beliefs has direct, positive and significant effect on the motivational beliefs and indirect positive and significant effect on self-regulated learning strategies and behavioral tendency to web-based learning. In addition, motivational beliefs have direct positive and significant effect on self-regulated learning strategies and behavioral tendencies in web-based learning. The direct effect of e-learning readiness on e-learning strategies and behavioral tendency toward web learning was positive but was not statistically significant. Conclusion: E-learning readiness has a positive and significant effect on students’ motivational beliefs. So, increasing the amount of this factor will increase the students’ motivation in the web-based educational environment and their success. M3 ER -
