Solari, Mariana; Vizquerra, María Isabel; Engel, Anna – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
The lack of alignment between, on the one hand, what schools seek to teach and, on the other, the students' interests and learning objectives is leading to increasing numbers of students who are unable to derive meaning from school activities. Personalized learning strategies represent one of the most powerful ways to help students attribute…

Cheung, Sum Kwing; Chan, Winnie Wai Lan; Fong, Ricci Wai-tsz – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
Parents' high academic expectations have often been found to benefit children's academic outcomes. Nonetheless, little is known whether different ways of expressing the high expectations exert similar influences on early numeracy development. This study therefore investigated the relations of two forms of parents' perfectionistic…

Wild, Steffen; Rahn, Sebastian; Meyer, Thomas – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
Student dropout in higher education is a challenge for higher education systems. In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on analyzing motivational aspects in order to counteract dropout. However, the detailed impact mechanisms and processes of motivation on dropout have not been sufficiently researched. For example, there is very…

Freund, Micha-Josia; Gnambs, Timo; Lockl, Kathrin; Wolter, Ilka – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2022
This article examines the development of reading and mathematical competence in early secondary education and aims at identifying distinct profiles of competence development. Since reading and mathematical competences are highly correlated both cross-sectionally and longitudinally, we expected to find a generalized profile of competence…

Xu, Jianzhong – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2021
Whereas it is often a challenge to keep students motivated and interested in academic tasks, it is more of a challenge to have students stay motivated and interested in academic tasks outside school during nonschool hours--homework. Prior research, however, has largely overlooked the reasons or purposes students have for doing homework and their…

de Leur, Tessa; van Boxtel, Carla; Wilschut, Arie – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2020
The past is not in the classroom to observe and study. Thus, creating a lively and understandable image of a past period or situation is an achievement to be learned. A variety of tasks can be used to stimulate students to create an image of the past. In this experimental study, 151 grade 9 students (14-16 years old) participated by completing a…

Jones, Brett D.; Wilkins, Jesse L. M.; Long, Margaret H.; Wang, Feihong – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2012
Blackwell et al. (Child Development 78(1):246-263, 2007) tested a motivational model of achievement in which an incremental theory of intelligence leads to learning goals and positive effort beliefs, which leads to fewer ability-based, helpless attributions, and more positive strategies, which leads to improved grades. In the present study, we…

Logtenberg, Albert; van Boxtel, Carla; van Hout-Wolters, Bernadette – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2011
This study investigates questions students ask related to an introductory text about a new topic in the history classroom. The effects of a narrative, problematizing, and expository introductory text on the situational interest of students and the number and type of student-generated questions, are compared. Participants are 174 students in higher…

The purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between students' interests, their use of certain specific learning strategies and causal attributions which they made for their academic achievement. In this manner, we attempted to explore the relationships between some important variables from three different, but connected phases of…

Corbiere, Marc; Fraccaroli, Franco; Mbekou, Valentin; Perron, Jacques – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2006
Academic self-concept and academic interest are crucial concepts for understanding students' academic achievement. Yet, few questionnaires currently exist that have been used and validated in more than one country. This study aimed at assessing these concepts using an academic self-concept questionnaire (Marsh, 1990) and an academic interest…

Kessels, Ursula – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2005
The goal of the study was twofold: (1) to examine the relationship between the gender-stereotyped perceptions of prototypic peers excelling in different school subjects and the personal liking for these subjects: (2) to examine whether the popularity of adolescents depends on their gender-role congruent achievement at school. Participants were n =…
