Guttman Smallest Space Analysis was applied to 51 variables collected on 850 children in 48 Israeli schools, grades 4 through 9. Mapping sentences were derived for defining achievement orientation. Relations among components of the structure were weaker for students of eastern origin than for those of western origin. (Author/RL)
