q2 i? Modelling the Wheel's 11 factors as distinct but correlated factors fits data well across elementary, high school, and university students, and higher-order factor analysis also supports the a priori four-group clustering. → Andrew J. Martin 2023

The review reports, citing Martin (2009), confirmatory and higher-order factor analysis findings for the Wheel's structure. Both the distinct 11-factor model and the a priori four-group higher-order clustering "represents a good fit to data" across educational levels. No effect sizes are printed.

"confirmatory factor analysis shows that modelling these as distinct (but correlated) factors provides a good fit to data among elementary school students, high school students, and university/college students (Martin, 2009). However, higher order factor analysis shows that the a priori thematic clustering of factors within each of positive motivation, positive engagement, negative motivation, and negative engagement also represents a good fit to data."
