Wijsman, Lindy A.; Warrens, Matthijs J.; Saab, Nadira; van Driel, Jan H.; Westenberg, P. Michiel – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2016
Student performance is related to motivation to learn. As motivation generally declines during lower secondary education, one might expect performance to decline as well during this period. Though, until now, it has been unclear whether this pattern exists. In the present study, we examined student performance during the early years of secondary…

Rutkowski, David; Rutkowski, Leslie; Plucker, Jonathan A. – High Ability Studies, 2012
A recent study in the USA documented the existence and growth of "excellence gaps" among students.

We extend this…
