Investigating a Measure of Computer Technology Domain Identification
The aim of this project is to further examine the construct of domain identification (i.e., a person’s positive phenomenological experiences with, and perceived self-relevance of, a domain), specifically as it applies to computer technology (CT). The authors model a knownmeasure of math identification to first develop a measure ofCTidentification. The authors then test whether the new CT identification measure could uniquely explain the relations…
The Role of Interest in Understanding the Career Choices of Female and Male College Students
The Effects of Negative Managerial Feedback on Student Motivation
Self‐Regulating Interest
Sansone, Weir, Harpster, and Morgan (1992) found that individuals intentionally regulated their interest in an activity when they had both the need (the task was boring) and a reason to exert the effort (an ostensible health benefit). The present study examined Hardiness and Conscientiousness as moderators of this self‐regulatory process when individuals had the option of quitting in addition to the options of persisting and of engaging in intere…
Once a boring task always a boring task? Interest as a self-regulatory mechanism
A process was proposed through which individuals regulate their motivation to perform necessary but uninteresting activities over time. If committed to continuing, individuals may engage in interest-enhancing strategies that can change the activity into something more positive to perform. In Study 1 Ss performed novel tasks and generated strategies to make regular performance interesting. In Study 2 Ss actually used these strategies primarily in …
