Covariate paths in the same SEM (gender 0 = male, 1 = female; year group 0 = Year 10, 1 = Year 11). All other associations with covariates were reported as non-statistically significant (p > .05).

"gender was associated with challenge appraisal (β = .14 p = .003), threat appraisal (β = .20 p < .001), and T1 academic self-efficacy (β = -.13 p = .002). Year group was associated with threat appraisal (β = .13, p =.02)."

Related Claims¶

• Latent correlations show threat appraisal flips from positive to negative with attainment value between T1 and T3 — related
• Prior academic self-efficacy and attainment value do not cross-predict each other over the school year — related
• Higher attainment value with higher academic self-efficacy predicts challenge appraisal, whereas higher attainment value with lower academic self-efficacy predicts threat appraisal — related
