Adolescents' Goal Orientations and Academic Achievement: Long-Term Relations and Gender Differences.
Giota, Joanna
Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v46 n4 p349-71 Dec 2002
Studied the predictability of 8 different types of goal orientations as motives for academic achievement in a sample of 7,391 13-year-old students. Findings suggest that students at this age already pursue a variety of academic and nonacademic goals and that different types of goal orientations are differentially related to achievement. (SLD)
