A Motivational Model of Rural Students' Intentions To Persist In, versus Drop Out Of, High School.
Hardre, Patricia L.; Reeve, Johnmarshall
Journal of Educational Psychology, v95 n2 p347-56 Jun 2003
Using self-determination theory, the authors tested a motivational model to explain the conditions under which rural students formulate their intentions to persist in, versus drop out of, high school. Analyses showed that the provision of autonomy support within classrooms predicted students' self-determined motivation and perceived competence. These motivational resources, in turn, predicted students' intentions to persist, versus drop out. (Contains 66 references, 3 tables, and 2 figures.) (GCP)
