Motivation and Achievement: A Quantitative Synthesis.
Uguroglu, Margaret E.; Walberg, Herbert J.
American Educational Research Journal, v16 n4 p375-89 Fall 1979

Grade level was the only significant student characteristic; motivation and achievement were more highly correlated in later grades. (Author/CP)
