Subclaims¶

q2 i2 Days with more academic success than usual were followed by higher mastery goals the next morning (β = .256), supporting Hypothesis 3. → Neubauer 2022 q2 i1 Academic success was also associated with higher performance-approach goals (β = .068) and performance-avoidance goals (β = .163) the next morning, suggesting success boosts all three goals. → Neubauer 2022

Evidence¶

Neubauer 2022¶

Neubauer, A. B., Schmidt, A., Schmiedek, F., & Dirk, J. (2022). Dynamic Reciprocal Relations of Achievement Goals with Daily Experiences of Academic Success and Failure: An Ambulatory Assessment Study. https://osf.io/gfvja/?view_only=b87fe179cf134471948726cb0e482a80

q2 · i2 · associational · r2

Across-day cross-lagged effects from the DSEM of Grade 5 ambulatory data. Success predicted next-morning mastery ("β = .256, [.203, .309]") and, more weakly, both performance goals. The performance-avoidance link was not robust in all sensitivity analyses.

"experiences of academic success were, as hypothesized in our third research hypothesis, associated with more mastery goals in the next morning, β = .256, [.203, .309]. In addition, academic success was also associated with an increase in performance-approach goals, β = .068 [.014, .126], and performance-avoidance goals in the following morning, β = .163 [.104, .216]."
