Academic Motivation and School Performance: Toward a Structural Model.
Fortier, Michelle S.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v20 n3 p257-74 Jul 1995
A motivational model of school performance, based on the theoretical framework of Deci and Ryan (1985) and structural equation modeling, was prepared and tested with 263 Montreal (Canada) 9th graders. Perceived academic competence and perceived academic self-determination positively influenced autonomous academic motivation, which had a positive impact on school performance. (SLD)
