The purpose of this study was to identify distinctive achievement goal patterns of students and examine their influence on learning strategies (deep/surface) and science achievement. Cluster analysis procedure was performed to classify students on the basis of task, performance, and performance-avoidance goal scores. The results produced 3 clusters of students with different achievement goal patterns: high task goal (cluster 1), high task-high performance goal (cluster 2), and low task-low performance goal (cluster 3). One-way ANOVA results revealed that the scores of cluster 2 were significantly higher than those of clusters 1 and 3 in deep learning strategy. The science achievement test scores of clusters 1 and 2 were higher than those of cluster 3. Looking at surface learning strategy, however, the test scores of cluster 3 were significantly higher than those of clusters 1 and 2. The educational implications of these findings are discussed.

This study examined how motivational climate, achievement goals, and learning strategies jointly contributed to science achievement through path analysis of 260 middle school students. The results showed that only deep learning strategy had a significant direct effect on science achievement. The promotion of learning by science teachers and the pursuit of progress by peers had the mediational pathways linking task goal and deep learning strategy on science achievement. The pursuit of progress and the promotion of the comparison by peers influenced science achievement via deep learning strategy. The promotion of the comparison by peers also influenced deep learning strategy via performance-goal, which in turn influenced science achievement. These results indicated that the learning strategies had a direct effect and motivational climate or achievement goals had an indirect effect on science achievement. Our findings lead us to expect that the effective instructional method to improve students' science achievement is the one that impact both cognitive and motivational functioning.

The purpose of this study was to examine middle school students' (N= 153) perceptions of motivational climate (teacher learning/teacher comparison/peer learning/peer comparison/peer worry) and their achievement goals (task/performance/performance-avoidance). The influence of perceptions of motivational climate emphasized by science teachers and/or peers on achievement goals was explored by stepwise regression. Although there was no difference in male/female perceptions of motivational climate, there was significant difference in their achievement goals. Regression result indicated that the pursuit of learning by peers made the strongest contribution to students' task goal. On the other hand, promotion via comparison by science teachers or peers had little effect on inducing performance goal. Anxieties about mistakes were found to be the strongest contribution to predictions on students' performance-avoidance goal. The promotion of comparison by science teachers was related to not only performance goal, but also performance-avoidance goal. Lastly educational implications for intervention efforts designed to enhance the quality of student motivational development in science education are discussed.

The purpose of The purpose of this study is to empirically investigate the relationships among achievement goal-orientation, sports confidence, and exercise commitment in university student-athletes. To fulfill this purpose, data were collected from 347 student-athletes enrolled in universities located in Seoul and the Gyeong-In area, and analysis thereof was carried out. Conclusion drawn from the performance of this study is as follows: First, university student-athletes' achievement goal-orientation has significant effects on their sports confidence. Second, university student-athletes' sports confidence has significant effects on their exercise commitment. Third, university student-athletes' achievement goal-orientation has significant effects on their exercise commitment. Fourth, sports confidence has indirect mediation effects on the relationship between achievement goal-orientation and exercise commitment in university student-athletes, and it was found that these factors had causal relationships. Therefore, the findings of this study show that university student-athletes' achievement goal-orientation plays an important role for their effective commitment to exercise, in the process of which sports confidence plays the role of a mediator, suggesting that psychological support as well as motor skill cultivation is necessary to enhance university student-athletes' performance.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of the achievement goal orientation of military cadets and grit on the military cadets' certification of physical fitness rank and on the improvement of the grade. To accomplish the research purpose, a survey was conducted to 350 cadets of the Korea Military Academy in December 2019, and 322 valid responses were analyzed by applying the path analyses. As a result, among the sub-factors of achievement goal orientation, the direct effect of task goal orientation on the two sub-factors of the grit was statistically significant. In addition, the effect of task goal orientation on grade physical certification was statistically significant, with the use of grit(maintaining interest) and grit(continuing effort) as meditating variables. In addition, task goal orientation had a significant effect on the improvement of physical strength grade via two sub-factors of Grit as meditating variables.

This current study sought to investigate effects of in-service teachers' achievement goal orientation, organizational citizenship behavior on job-satisfaction and to discuss the improvement of early childhood teachers' achievement goal orientation and organizational citizenship behavior. A total of 178 teachers participated in this study and completed questionnaires. To analyze the data, Pearson's correlation and hierarchical multiple-regression analysis were used. The results were as follows. Firstly, relatively correlation existed between teachers' achievement goal orientation and job satisfaction. Particularly, mastery-approach orientation, performance-approach orientation showed the relatively high correlation with job satisfaction and its sub-scales. Also, teachers' organizational citizenship behavior had relatively positive correlation with their job-satisfaction and its sub-scales. Secondly, teachers' achievement goal orientation and its sub-scale had 38% significant effects on their job-satisfaction. And teachers' organizational citizenship behavior appeared to have 8.6% influence on job-satisfaction. Based on the results, several ways were discussed to develop and improve teachers' achievement goal orientation and organizational citizenship behavior.

This study investigated the causal relationships between high school student multiple-choice algorithmic chemistry problem solving and 1) the motivational variables of achievement goal (task goal/performance goal/performance-avoidance) and perceived ability, and 2) the cognitive variables of learning strategy (deep learning/surface learning) and self-regulation. Path analysis supported a causal model in which perceived ability and task goal were found to positively influence algorithmic chemistry problem-solving ability via self-regulation. In particular it was found that perceived ability directly influenced algorithmic chemistry problem-solving ability. Moreover, deep learning was found to have been influenced by perceived ability and task goal, while surface learning was influenced by performance-avoidance goal. Lastly, there did not appear to be any causal relationship between learning strategy and algorithmic chemistry problem-solving ability.

In this study, we look at the effect that the achievement goal of specialized high school students has on academic self-efficacy and the difference in academic self-efficacy depending on achievement goal orientation. The purpose of this research is to help students to efficiently increase their academic self-efficacy, develop research and study life guidance measures to improve negative factors, and select professors and learning methods. To achieve the purpose, survey was conducted with achievement goal orientation measurement tools(26 questions) and academic self-efficacy measurement tools(28 questions) for 745 students of 18 specialized technical high school students in 5 districts. The results of this study are as follows. First, preference to task difficulty and self-controlling efficacy have highly positive correlations with mastery goal orientation and confidence and mastery avoidance goal orientation have highly negative correlations each other. Second, achievement goal orientation form of specialized high school students were divided into 5 forms; 'execution avoidance(34.8%)', 'mastery orientation(20.8%)', 'approach(17%)', 'avoidance competition(14.9%)', and'mastery avoidance(12.5%)'. In preference to task difficulty, 'approach'group showed the highest average point and 'mastery avoidance'showed the lowest average point. The average point of 'approach' group was higher than other groups in confidence, but 'mastery orientation' group showed the highest average point. Through the results of this study, academic self-efficacy makes an effect by a certain direction in accordance with achievement goal orientation and it's necessary to access academic problems differently according to student's goal directivity. Therefore, it's necessary to provide educational method by student type based on explanation about academic self-efficacy of achievement goal orientation of specialized high school students and analysis on achievement goal orientation form.
