Abstract:
This study investigates how learners’ own motivational variables are related to task performance and how learners’ task performance is influenced by their partners’ motivational variables in an interactive task. A total of 28 Japanese first year university students engaged in a computer mediated, decision making task, and the number of words produced and turns taken during the task was counted as their task performance. Questionnaires were administered to measure eight motivational dispositions related to the task. Correlation analyses were used to examine the relationships between task motiva

Purpose – The rapid development of Web 2.0 and social media enables the rise of crowdsourcing. Crowdsourcing contest is a typical case of crowdsourcing and has been adopted by many organisations for business solution and decision making. From a participant's perspective, it is interesting to explore what motivates people to participate in crowdsourcing contest. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the category of motivation based on self-determination theory and synthesises various motivation factors in crowdsourcing contest.

Abstract:
The article examines the concept of "motivation" and the influence of motivation on the activation of the activities of IT employees. The basic and modern theories of motivation of IT personnel are systematized and clarified. It is proven that in the current conditions, personnel motivation is the driving force for the activation of the activities of IT enterprise employees. It is established that the core of motivation of IT enterprise personnel is remuneration. A scientific methodology for developing mechanisms for managing personnel incentives is proposed, which reflects a general idea of ​

Abstract:
The purpose of this research study was to determine to what extent the motivational climate perceived by students in Physical Education (PE) classes predicts self-determined motivation, and satisfaction with physical education classes. Questionnaires were administered to 758 high school students aged 13-18 years. We used the Spanish versions of the PE adaptations of instruments: Sport Satisfaction Instrument, Sport Motivation Scale and Learning and Performance Orientations in PE Classes Questionnaire. We conducted a descriptive statistical analysis and correlations with structural equation mod

Abstract:
Motivational climate is inherently a group-level construct so that longitudinal, multilevel designs are needed to evaluate its effects on subsequent outcomes. Based on a large sample of physical education classes (2,786 students, 200 classes, 67 teachers), we evaluated the effects of classroom motivational climate (task-involving and ego-involving) and individual goal orientations (task and ego) on individual students’ outcomes (intrinsic motivation, attitudes, physical self-concept, and exercise intentions) collected early (T1) and late (T2) in the school year. Using a multilevel approach, we

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the participation behaviors in the context of crowdsourcing projects from the perspective of gamification. Design/methodology/approach This paper first proposed a model to depict the effect of four categories of game elements on three types of motivation based upon several motivation theories, which may, in turn, influence user participation. Then, 5 × 2 between-subject Web experiments were designed for collecting data and validating this model. Findings Game elements which provide participants with rewards and recognitions or remind participants o

Abstract:
There is relatively little research on the intersection of state and trait motivation measures and vigilance task engagement. The present research demonstrates and catalogs the correlation between several measures of self-reported motivation and task engagement factors on the short- and long-form versions of the Dundee Stress State Questionnaire (DSSQ; Matthews et al., 2002; Matthews, 2016). Data was collected from 200 participants across three vigilance studies. Evidence from correlational analyses indicated that state intrinsic motivation, trait achievement motivation, and trait self-esteem

The present study examined the relationship between motivational climate with intrinsic motivation for athletes with high and low perceived competence. It was predicted that for highly competent athletes a motivational climate of high mastery and high performance would be associated with enhanced intrinsic motivation whereas for athletes of low competence perceptions of a motivational climate of high mastery would be associated with higher intrinsic motivation. Analysis for 100 male basketball players showed that there was no significant interaction between perceived competence and perceptions

Abstract:
Abstract Researchers investigating TBLT have used psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic theories in support of the approach, but there has been limited discussion of motivational frameworks. A framework for motivation within TBLT would enhance our understanding of learner motivation, and could be utilised in future studies. This paper argues that Self-Determination Theory is an appropriate framework. After briefly describing the key tenets of TBLT and SDT, the paper shows how SDT helps us understand the motivational benefits of tasks. It outlines the six mini-theories of SDT, and aligns them wi

Abstract Motivation is a key factor for child development, but very few studies have examined child and family predictors of both child task and perceived motivation. Thus, the three aims of this 6-month longitudinal study in preschoolers with global developmental delays (GDD) were to explore: 1) differences between task and perceived motivation in cognitive domain; 2) differences among three domains of perceived motivation: cognitive, gross motor, and social; and 3) early child and family predictors of cognitive task motivation and the three domains of perceived motivation 6 months later.
