Subclaims¶

q3 i? Males reported lower mastery orientation, self-efficacy, and self-regulation than females; Latino adolescents reported lower school belonging than African American adolescents; and students in higher grades reported lower value, belonging, and self-regulation. → Jamaal S. Matthews 2014

Evidence¶

Jamaal S. Matthews 2014¶

Jamaal S. Matthews, Meeta Banerjee, Fani Lauermann. (2014). Academic Identity Formation and Motivation Among Ethnic Minority Adolescents: The Role of the “Self” Between Internal and External Perceptions of Identity. Child Development. https://doi.org/10.1111/cdev.12318

q3 · i? · associational · r2

Initial descriptive correlational analyses (Table 1) of the 600-adolescent sample; the quote also reports adolescents in higher grades reported somewhat lower value (r = −.14), belonging (r = −.10), and self-regulation (r = −.20), all ps < .05. All are small bivariate correlations.

"males reported somewhat lower mastery orientation (r = /C0 .09), self-efficacy ( r = /C0 .11), and self-regula- tion ( r = /C0 .11) than females; Latino adolescents reported somewhat lower sense of school belonging relative to African American adolescents ( r = /C0 .13)"

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Identity — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

Related Claims¶

• Undergraduate researchers' disciplinary identity differs by demographic characteristics — related
• SRL partially mediates the positive relations of both academic value and school belonging to mastery orientation among African American and Latino adolescents — related
• Self-efficacy moderates the mediating role of SRL between school belonging and mastery, with the strongest mediation for low-efficacy students — related
• Self-efficacy did not significantly moderate the mediation of the value-to-mastery relation through SRL — related
• At-risk identification is demographically patterned, with Black, Hispanic, and male students more likely to be identified — related
• Demographic moderators (child gender, parent gender, ethnicity, sample type, socio-economic status) show limited moderating effects on the self-efficacy–partnership association — related
• Demographic characteristics (gender, age, SES, school type, race/ethnicity) were only small correlates of high school students' school feelings, explaining less than 9% of variance in positive and less than 6% in negative feelings — related
