Abstract:

The present study examined Garland's cognitive mediation theory of goal setting in a three-minute basketball shooting task. The effects of different goal conditions were also investigated along with achievement motivation and self-motivation as mediating constructs of performance. Subjects (N=150) were males and females, assigned to one of five goal conditions: "do your best", easy, moderate, hard, and improbable. Results indicated no performance differences between the different goal conditions, with subjects in the "do your best" condition performing as well as subjects in the other goal con

Relatedness is a basic psychological need that, when satisfied, facilitates well-being and results in higher motivation and achievement (Ryan & Deci, 2000a).

Abstract:

The impact of affect on learning and performance has caused many researchers in the field of cognitive psychology to acknowledge the value of motivationally supportive instruction. Goal orientation, which refers to the perceptions and behaviors of the learner in achievement situations, has been the most predominant theory in learning motivation. However, research suggests multiple components are responsible for affecting student cognitive engagement. The traditional framework distinguishes individuals who are self-motivated to master challenging tasks from those who are motivated to earn favor

This thesis studies the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement and what achievements it has been able to accomplish related to its objectives, in order to create a better under- standing of how new social movements work and what they can accomplish. The objectives and achievements were divided into different categories: cultural recognition, physical security, socio-economic, and other. The findings show that most of the objectives were of the physical security and socio-economic category while most of the achievements were outside of the objectives the BLM movement set and are mostly related to the cu

Abstract:

Cette recherche a été menée auprès d'étudiants de Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Ecoles Scientifiques. Un de ses objectifs est d'analyser l'influence des variables motivationnelles sur la performance académique. L’auto-efficacité académique, l’orientation des buts et la motivation autodéterminée sont souvent citées pour leur rôle majeur dans la réussite universitaire. Ces variables sont issues de cadres théoriques distincts et nous souhaitons étudier comment elles s'influencent mutuellement. Des outils psychométriques, dont une échelle d’auto-efficacité académique, ont été créés et validés.

Abstract:

Denna studie handlar om lärarens dubbla uppdrag inom gymnasieskolans ekonomiprogram och är ännu en studie som visar på att uppgiftsorienterat/elevaktivt förhållningssätt ger läraren förutsättning att uppfylla Skollagens båda uppdrag, att ge eleverna kunskaper och demokratiska värden, samt känna lust i lärandet samtidigt. Utgångspunkt är Skollagen och Skolverkets texter. Skollagen initierar att eleverna genom sin utbildning skall erhålla kunskaper och demokratiska värden. Det är detta som är studiens definition av det dubbla uppdraget. Tanken bakom studien är; Skollagen initierar det dubbla

Abstract:

A key challenge of the learning sciences is moving research results into practice. Educators on the front lines perceive little value in the outputs of education research and demand more “usable knowledge”. This work explores the potential instead of usable artifacts to translate knowledge into practice, adding scientists as stakeholders in an interaction design process. The contributions are two effective systems, the scientific and contextual principles in their design, and a research model for scientific research through interaction design. College student study practices are the domain cho

Abstract:

The experience students make of their scholastic life is continuously shaped by a multitude of intra-psychological, inter-psychological, and contextual factors, that can either enhance or hinder students’ well-being, the quality of their life, and their life satisfaction both inside and outside of school. In particular, family influences have often been found to be one of the most important of said factors. The purpose of this doctoral dissertation was to contribute to the discourse on motivation in education. In particular, drawing from the Achievement Goal theory (AGT), its purpose was to

Abstract:

Motivation is a universal psychological phenomenon that determines all that we do. Self- determination Theory (SDT) and Achievement Goal Theory (AGT) each explain the academic motivation of university students and its relation to important academic outcomes (achievement, dedication, and well-being). Recently, an integration of these theories has been proposed (Drylund, 2009) which theorizes that achievement goals affect academic outcomes through their relationship with SDT constructs. The current study uses this integrative theory as a starting point but applies the critical realist perspectiv
