Anja Strobel; Alexander Strobel; Franzis Preckel; Ricarda Steinmayr – AERA Open, 2024
While intelligence and motivational variables are well-established predictors of academic achievement, Need for Cognition (NFC), the stable intrinsic motivation to engage in and enjoy challenging intellectual activity, has not yet been considered comprehensively in this field, especially not longitudinally. By applying latent change score…

Kata Csizér; Ágnes Albert – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2024
The aim of our paper is to explore the predictor variables of autonomous use of technology (Benson, 2011) in relation to second language learning. To this end, we explored motivated learning behavior (Dörnyei & Ushioda, 2021), self-efficacy (Bandura, 1986) and several language learning-related emotions, such as enjoyment, pride, hope,…

Ramos, Alicia; Lavrijsen, Jeroen; Linnenbrink-Garcia, Lisa; Soenens, Bart; Vansteenkiste, Maarten; Sypré, Sabine; Boncquet, Michiel; Verschueren, Karine – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2023
This study used a longitudinal person-oriented approach to examine whether two distinct developmental pathways of maladaptive motivation could be distinguished among high-ability students (intelligence quotient [IQ] [greater than or equal to] 120, N = 403, M[subscript age] = 12.2 years, 60.5% males), as proposed by the Pathways to Underachievement…

Clavel, Jose G.; García Crespo, Francisco Javier; Sanz San Miguel, Luis – Asia Pacific Journal of Education, 2022
The Programme for International Student Assessment, carried out every three years by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development across a large number of countries and economies, have shown that socioeconomically disadvantaged students are almost three times more likely than advantaged students not to attain the baseline level of…

Pariwat Imsa-ard – rEFLections, 2025
Recently, there has been a rapid growth in the number of studies related to emotions and positive psychology constructs in language teaching and learning. However, there is scant research in the context of low exposure to English. Thus, the present study aimed to examine the relationship between Thai EFL secondary school learners' L2 positive and…

Green, Cathrin D.; Thornton, Keely; Fredrick, Joseph W.; Wiggs, Kelsey K.; Smith, Zoe R.; Langberg, Joshua M.; Becker, Stephen P. – School Mental Health, 2023
A growing body of research demonstrates that school climate is associated with adolescent mental health. Much of the extant literature have focused on identifying risk factors for adverse mental health outcomes, whereas much less work has been done examining factors that are important to foster adolescents' strengths and thereby increase the…

Soltani, Asghar – Research in Science Education, 2020
Classroom environment, family, and peers are important factors in influencing students' science learning. The primary aim of this study was to examine the effects of three environmental factors related to science learning (motivating science class, family models, and peer models) on students' approaches to learning science (deep approach and…

Hodis, Flaviu-Adrian – Social Psychology of Education: An International Journal, 2020
This research used the expectancy-value theory to examine the extent to which three classes of motivation antecedents predicted secondary-school students' expectancies of success in English. To this end, it investigated four general motivation orientations, two school-related achievement motives, as well as autonomous and controlled reasons…

Rachmatullah, Arif; Reichsman, Frieda; Lord, Trudi; Dorsey, Chad; Mott, Bradford; Lester, James; Wiebe, Eric – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2021
This study examined students' genetics learning in a game-based environment by exploring the connections between the expectancy-value theory of achievement motivation and flow theory. A total of 394 secondary school students were recruited and learned genetics concepts through interacting with a game-based learning environment. We measured their…

Hiver, Phil; Al-Hoorie, Ali H. – Language Learning, 2020
Researchers have linked vivid mental imagery, particularly of the self in future states, to many desirable motivational outcomes for language learning. We report a preregistered conceptual replication and extension of You, Dörnyei, and Csizér (2016), who found a central motivational role for vision. We review essential considerations in structural…

You, Hye Sun; Park, Sunyoung; Delgado, Cesar – Science Education, 2021
The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics of US schools associated with two measures of scientific literacy (content knowledge and "procedural and epistemic" knowledge) using the 2015 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) data. Because outcomes are nested within students, and students within schools, a…

Ahmed, Wondimu – International Journal of Psychology and Educational Studies, 2017
This study investigated the relationship between motivation and self-regulated learning (SRL) in a nationally representative sample of 5245, 15-year-old students in the USA. A multivariate multilevel analysis was conducted to examine the role of three motivational variables (self-efficacy, intrinsic value & instrumental value) in predicting…

Berti, Chiara; Mameli, Consuelo; Speltini, Giuseppina; Molinari, Luisa – Issues in Educational Research, 2016
In this study we explore teacher justice and parent support in learning motivation and visions of a just world. The study sample was 509 Italian secondary school students, 163 males and 346 females. Regression analyses investigated the impact of teacher justice, parental involvement and factors of school choice (one's interests and parental…

Aydeniz, Mehmet; Kotowski, Michael R. – Electronic Journal of Science Education, 2014
This study argues for the need to clarify the attitude construct in science education. After positing a conceptual definition for attitudes derived from the social psychology and persuasion literature, this study makes a demarcation between science attitudes and attitudes towards science. Based on this conceptual clarity, the study offers a…

Niemi, Hannele; Multisilta, Jari – Technology, Pedagogy and Education, 2016
This article presents results on how students became engaged and motivated when using digital storytelling in knowledge creation in Finland, Greece and California. The theoretical framework is based on sociocultural theories. Learning is seen as a result of dialogical interactions between people, substances and artefacts. This approach has been…
