q2 i? Relatively more effective intervention programs were structured to train multiple elements of autonomy support. → Su 2011

q2 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2

Moderator analyses of the meta-analytic effect size compared program subcategories. Programs "structured in ways that trained multiple elements of autonomy support" were relatively more effective; no effect size for this moderator contrast is printed in the available text.

"Moderator analyses of the overall effect size showed that the relatively more effective intervention programs were structured in ways that trained multiple elements of autonomy support"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Self-determination theory holds that autonomy support raises intrinsic motivation, and a meta-analysis finds expected tangible rewards undermine it — the general claim this finding bears on, with the studies behind it
• Autonomy-supportive training programs are overall effective, with a weighted effect size of 0.63 across 19 studies — a broader claim this one bears on
• More effective programs used brief 1–3 h laboratory sessions with skill-based activities and multiple media — related
