Motivational regulation, or the way learners purposefully initiate, maintain, or supplement their willingness for task engagement and completion, has been an important area of research in educational psychology. However, despite the surge of research on this topic, it remains unclear how specific motivational regulation strategies relate to…

Kryshko, Olena; Fleischer, Jens; Grunschel, Carola; Leutner, Detlev – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Although research on motivational regulation, as an important subprocess of self-regulated learning, has increased considerably in the past two decades, previous findings stem mainly from cross-sectional data and between-person analyses. The aim of this research was to explore the longitudinal associations between self-efficacy for motivational…

This study examined the unique and interactive role of students' quality of motivation, as defined in self-determination theory, and their mindsets about intelligence, as conceptualized in Dweck's framework, in predicting a variety of learning outcomes (engagement, learning strategies, persistence, procrastination, and test anxiety) and…

Teachers' behavior is a key factor that influences students' motivation. Many theoretical models have tried to explain this influence, with one of the most thoroughly researched being self-determination theory (SDT). We used a Delphi method to create a classification of teacher behaviors consistent with SDT. This is useful because SDT-based…

Anne Sosin; Andrea C. Kramer; Andreas B. Neubauer – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2024
Autonomous motivation for self-set goals (pursuing goals for more intrinsic and less extrinsic reasons) has been linked to affective well-being. Using intensive longitudinal data, the present article examines the link between university students' autonomous study motivation with affective well-being and targets fulfillment of the basic…

Xie, Kui; Vongkulluksn, Vanessa W.; Cheng, Sheng-Lun; Jiang, Zilu – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Students' academic motivation is malleable in nature and can change over time. Variable-centered research can detect general changes in motivational variables. Recent studies have shown that learning behaviors are driven by a combination of motivations, resulting in distinct motivational profiles. Person-centered studies can detect nuanced changes…

This paper focused on the impact of leadership styles on teachers' motivation and job performance in educational institutions. It was supported by established theories of leadership and motivation, in particular, transformational, transactional, and laisses-faire leadership styles were explored to understand their influence on teachers' motivation…

A growing body of research suggests that comprehension of expository texts presented digitally is a challenging endeavor, particularly for children. Many reading interventions, both from traditional classroom settings and computer-based contexts, have focused on much needed strategy instruction but have simultaneously neglected a focus on…

Dryden, Robert P.; Campbell, Aidan V.; Perry, Raymond P.; Hamm, Jeremy M.; Chipperfield, Judith G.; Parker, Patti C.; Leboe-McGowan, Launa – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Novel and unpredictable learning environments are a feature of school-to-college transitions that erode students' academic control, emotional resilience, and achievement (Perry, Hall, & Ruthig, 2005). Although motivation interventions can benefit college students (Koenka, 2020), few studies have examined treatment efficacy for students of…

Aelterman, Nathalie; Vansteenkiste, Maarten; Haerens, Leen; Soenens, Bart; Fontaine, Johnny R. J.; Reeve, Johnmarshall – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Guided by Self-Determination Theory, we offer an integrative and fine-grained analysis of teachers' classroom motivating style (i.e., autonomy support, structure, control, and chaos) to resolve existing controversies in the literature, such as how these dimensions relate to each other and to educationally important student and teacher outcomes.…

Hong, Wonjoon; Bernacki, Matthew L. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Undergraduates often report problematic perceptions of low value and high cost in their initial science courses. These beliefs often predict poor performance and retention, and also strengthen over time. Few studies have examined how profiles of value and cost beliefs emerge, and fewer track students' transitions across profiles over a course and…

Aitken, A. Angelique; Graham, Steve; McNeish, Daniel – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Many educators assume that choice in writing leads to better writing outcomes; however, there are few studies to support this belief. In the present study, we examined the effects of choice and preference on writing quality with college students. The students wrote two argumentative essays on controversial topics in special education. For the…

Putwain, David W.; Nicholson, Laura J.; Kutuk, Gulsah – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
In the context of high-stakes qualifications, teachers may warn students of the negative consequences of failure as a tactic designed to increase engagement and, ultimately, achievement. Previous studies have shown that these types of messages, namely fear appeals, are indirectly related to engagement and achievement in different ways, depending…

Núñez-Regueiro, Fernando; Juhel, Jacques; Bressoux, Pascal; Nurra, Cécile – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Part of the evidence used to corroborate school motivation theories relies on modeling methods that estimate cross-lagged effects between constructs, that is, reciprocal effects from one occasion to another. Yet, the reliability of cross-lagged models rests on the assumption that students do not differ in their trajectories of growth over time…

Educational science has consistently examined what drives adolescents to aspire to occupations in math-related fields -- and which factors, such as gender stereotypes, may drive them away. In this study, we utilized a large longitudinal data set (N = 1,092) to test whether past grades, gender, and the math level of mothers' and fathers'…
