Korean American Preschoolers' Motivational Helplessness and Its Associations with Beliefs about Goodness/Badness.
Lee, Kyung Hee
Journal of Research in Childhood Education, v14 n1 p103-17 Fall-Win 1999
Examined whether the mastery-oriented and helpless motivational patterns would be identified in Korean American kindergartners, and whether these patterns would be associated with general beliefs about goodness/badness. Found that Korean American children revealed more vulnerabilities in the face of negative feedback and they had more global, stable, and adult- oriented general beliefs about goodness, regardless of motivational patterns.
