从动机角度研究情绪困扰的研究相对较少。当前，个人目标研究旨在从不同层次分析个人目标系统，即。相关的因果解释和目标期望，作为烦躁不安的功能。焦虑（n = 28）和非焦虑（n = 28）青少年（16-18岁）从一个更大的学校样本中选择完成的任务，测量的方法目标和回避目标，因果解释的目标，和感知的可能性和控制估计的具体目标。作为预测焦虑的青少年，相对于控制，产生了更多的回避目标和更少的方法目标的组合，并认为更多的原因，解释为什么目标不会实现和更少的原因，解释为什么目标会实现（无论目标类型），并认为回避目标的结果更有可能发生和接近目标的结果不太可能发生。此外，焦虑的青少年在实现他们的目标比控制预期较少的个人控制。总的来说，数据确定了不同的个人目标系统，功能不同，在烦躁不安和非烦躁不安的青少年。(c)2005年，青少年服务专业人员协会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
yRelatively little research has studied emotional disturbance from a motivational perspective. The current, personal goals, study aimed to investigate personal goal systems at different levels of analysis, namely. associated causal explanations and goal expectancies, as a function of dysphoria. Dysphoric (n = 28) and non-dysphoric (n = 28) adolescents (16-18-yr-olds) selected from a larger school sample completed tasks that measured number of approach goals and avoidance goals, causal explanations for goals, and perceived likelihood and control estimates for idiographic goals. As predicted dysphoric adolescents, relative to controls, generated a combination of more avoidance goals and fewer approach goals, and thought of more reasons that explain why goals would not be achieved and fewer reasons that explain why goals would be achieved (irrespective of goal type), and considered avoidance goal outcomes as more likely to occur and approach goal outcomes as less likely to occur. In addition, dysphoric adolescents anticipated less personal control in implementing their goals than controls. Overall, the data identified distinct personal goal systems that function differently in dysphoric and non-dysphoric adolescents.
