Motivation, stress, and satisfaction are all key elements in academic success. Academic motivation is linked with positive outcomes, such as low levels of stress, high satisfaction, and mental well-being. Although it is well documented that motivational orientation, stress, and satisfaction are closely related together, very little attention has…

This dissertation examines the Saudi undergraduate educational environment, exploring relationships among teacher support, basic psychological needs satisfaction and frustration, academic motivation, and GPA. The study investigates whether basic psychological needs mediate the relationship between teacher support and academic motivation, utilizing…

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of university sports environment perception on academic motivation. A total of 206 students studying at various faculties of Bayburt University participated in the research. In the study, the "Personal Information Form" created by the researchers to determine the demographic information of…

The present study aimed to explore the association between 302 (93 males and 209 females) English as a foreign language (EFL) learners' perceived teacher support (i.e., personal support and academic support) and their reading motivation. This inquiry also sought to assess the potential mediating influences of second or foreign language (L2)…

The purpose of this study was to determine how much influence academic stress had on pre-service teachers' learning motivation. Mixed methods with a sequential explanatory design were the methods used in the study, while the sample used in this study amounted to 155 pre-service teachers obtained using random sampling from the Department of Sports…

This study is significant as it seeks to establish the connection between the digital literacy levels of pre-service teachers and their teacher identities while also examining the mediating role of mobile learning in this relationship. Additionally, it explores the impact of pre-service teachers' digital literacy and learning motivations on their…

To foster the pursuit of a better understanding of how the shift of teaching paradigms from teacher-centred instruction to student-centred instruction might have effects on Chinese students' learning, this study investigated the associations between teaching paradigms (student-centred and teacher-centred) and students' academic motivation and…

Excellent teachers produce quality students who resembles their teachers. Teaching is a very challenging and stressful job that create emotional distress for teachers and have a significant impact on students. Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory of Motivation inspired this study, which focused on Emotional Intelligence. This study attempts to…

The second-language (L2) Motivational Self System (L2MSS) proposed by Zoltán Dörnyei described how L2 learners are motivated through envisioning their ideal future L2 self. The L2MSS framework for studying L2 motivation has had mixed results. The aim of this study was to evaluate measuring future selves as L2 motivators consistent with the L2MSS…

This correlation study examined the effect of motivation and interest on students' learning outcomes at the university level. Data were collected from 125 university students through questionnaires and tests, and t-test, ANOVA, and R-Square were used to analyze the data. The results indicated that motivation in learning English did not influence…

Students involve themselves in learning activities multidimensionally, including behaviorally, cognitively, emotionally, and agentically. This multidimensional involvement predicts important outcomes, but it is also possible that each type of engagement might have its own specialized purpose or function. To investigate this possibility, we…

Learners' attempts to regulate their own motivation for studying in the face of tedious or difficult tasks is an important aspect of self-regulated learning. Therefore, motivation regulation has received increasing attention over the past few years, resulting in numerous publications using different definitions of the construct, samples,…

It is well known that successful second language (L2) learners are motivated individuals. Accordingly, L2 researchers have tested the predictive power of different motivational constructs on language learning outcomes. However, this perspective appears to neglect the assessment of achievement as a predictor of future motivation. To assess this…

Background: The purported reciprocity between motivation and academic achievement in education has largely been supported by correlational data. Aims: Our first aim was to determine experimentally whether motivation and achievement are reciprocally related. The second objective was to investigate a potential behavioural mediation pathway between…

In this meta-analysis, we examined the average correlations (weighted for sample size and corrected for measurement error) between the varied types of motivation specified within self-determination theory (SDT) and second language (L2) achievement. We also conducted moderator analyses to explore whether these relationships are influenced by age,…
