q2 · i? · theoretical · r2

Conceptual framework exposition in the article's framework section. The authors describe a three-phase structure in which responsibility shifts from expert to learner, with progression "when learners can articulate their motivational states and strategies without extensive prompting".

"The framework begins with an expert-directed phase that encompasses modeling, coaching, and scaffolding. During this initial phase, experts take primary responsibility for guiding motivational development."
