Senko, Corwin; Tropiano, Katie L. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2016
Achievement goal theory (Dweck, 1986) initially characterized mastery goals and performance goals as opposites in a good-bad dualism of student motivation. A later revision (Harackiewicz, Barron, & Elliot, 1998) contended that both goals can provide benefits and be pursued together. Perhaps both frameworks are correct: Their contrasting views…

Stull, Andrew T.; Hegarty, Mary – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2016
This study investigated the development of representational competence among organic chemistry students by using 3D (concrete and virtual) models as aids for teaching students to translate between multiple 2D diagrams. In 2 experiments, students translated between different diagrams of molecules and received verbal feedback in 1 of the following 3…

De Castella, Krista; Byrne, Don; Covington, Martin – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2013
A classic distinction in the literature on achievement and motivation is between fear of failure and success orientations. From the perspective of self-worth theory, these motives are not bipolar constructs but dimensions that interact in ways that make some students particularly vulnerable to underachievement and disengagement from school. The…

Steffens, Melanie C.; Jelenec, Petra; Noack, Peter – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2010
Many models assume that habitual human behavior is guided by spontaneous, automatic, or implicit processes rather than by deliberate, rule-based, or explicit processes. Thus, math-ability self-concepts and math performance could be related to implicit math-gender stereotypes in addition to explicit stereotypes. Two studies assessed at what age…

Holliman, Andrew J.; Wood, Clare; Sheehy, Kieron – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2010
There is a growing literature demonstrating that speech rhythm sensitivity is related to children's reading development, independent of phonological awareness. However, the precise nature of this relationship is less well understood, and further research is warranted to investigate whether speech rhythm sensitivity predicts the different…

Pekrun, Reinhard; Elliot, Andrew J.; Maier, Markus A. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2009
The authors propose a theoretical model linking achievement goals and achievement emotions to academic performance. This model was tested in a prospective study with undergraduates (N = 213), using exam-specific assessments of both goals and emotions as predictors of exam performance in an introductory-level psychology course. The findings were…

Walberg, Herbert J. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1972
The hypothesis that the correlation of measures on the same characteristic at two points in time will approach unity when the relevant, intervening environment is added to the prediction equation is tested on a sample of high school physics students. (Author/AG)
