Examinations of basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration profiles and their associations with regulatory focus, resilience, and friendship quality in two samples of students from the Paci…
To map the complex associations of key antecedents of motivation, this research examined configurations (i.e., profiles) of basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration (of autonomy, competence, and relatedness) in two independent samples of undergraduate students attending universities from two locations in the Pacific region—New Zealand ( N = 385) and Hawaiʻi, USA ( N = 386). Latent profile analyses identified seven profiles in each sa…
Key antecedents of maximal levels of aspiration and minimal boundary goals
Research findings indicate that two types of goals, which focus on the lowest (highest) levels of achievement possible in a learning setting, are strong predictors of how well students attain in school. Unfortunately, little is known about how these two goals, termed minimal boundary goals (MBG) and maximal levels of aspiration (MLA) relate to psychological constructs that are theorized to be antecedents of goals. To fill this knowledge gap, this…
Emotional labor profiles among teachers
Research indicates that teachers perform emotional labor on a daily basis. However, previous studies have mostly used a variable-centered approach that examines the associations of emotional labor strategies with particular outcome variables. This approach did not consider the possibility that teachers use different emotional labor strategies simultaneously. Therefore, in this study we took a person-centered approach and explored the emotional la…
Patterns of motivation and communication in learning environments
Analyzing student motivation at the confluence of achievement goals and their underlying reasons
Measuring Promotion and Prevention Orientations of Secondary School Students
The General Regulatory Focus Measure has been used extensively in psychological research to gauge promotion and prevention orientations. Findings of this research show that for New Zealand secondary school students, the General Regulatory Focus Measure does not measure promotion and prevention as theoretically independent constructs
Expectancy, Value, Promotion, and Prevention
In this study, we report on findings regarding the role that key communication constructs have in mediating the relationships among domain-specific expectancy and value beliefs and general motivation orientations. The results show that when student motivation has a promotion focus, feeling satisfied in communicating with the teacher in a course is a catalyst for heightened levels of expectancy of success and utility value beliefs regarding the co…
Maximal levels of aspiration, minimal boundary goals, and their relationships with academic achievement
Maximising educational attainment is important for both individuals and societies. However, understanding of why some students achieve better than others is far from complete. Motivation and achievement data from a sample of 782 secondary‐school students in New Zealand reveal that two specific types of outcome goals, namely maximal levels of aspiration and minimal boundary goals , predict subsequent student achievement independently of mastery, p…
Latent Growth Modeling for Communication Research
Latent growth modeling (LGM) is a powerful, flexible, and versatile methodology for studying time-related change. Employing LGM in the communication field can make important contributions to advancing communication research, theory, and pedagogy. This chapter presents the specific advantages of conceptualizing and analyzing change in a LGM framework and offers a methodologically sound and useful presentation of the procedure from a structural equ…
