Subclaims¶

q2 i? Performance-approach goals (β = -.028) and performance-avoidance goals (β = .050) showed no statistically meaningful same-day association with academic success; only the mastery-goal link held, so Hypothesis 1 was only partially supported. → 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 · i? · associational · r2

Same DSEM analysis of Grade 5 ambulatory data. Neither performance goal predicted same-day success; credible intervals for both ("β = -.028, [-.083, .030]" and β = .050, [-.011, .112]) contained zero. Equivalence was not tested.

"the associations with performance-approach goals, β = -.028, [-.083, .030], and performance-avoidance goals, β = .050, [-.011, .112], were not statistically meaningful. Hence, findings only partially supported our first research hypothesis."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Achievement Goal Orientation — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
