在这篇文章中,我介绍了当前的特刊,它汇集了领先的学者,他们在五种著名的学术动机理论的创立和发展中要么发起要么发挥了核心作用:归因理论、期望价值理论、社会认知理论、成就目标理论和自决理论。我首先讨论了专门讨论这些理论的特刊的必要性,然后总结了它的总体目标:(1)为主要理论家提供一个更新他们工作的出口;(2)聚焦于动机理论中三个未被充分探索和及时的问题(多样性、方法论和干预);(3)邀请知名学者讨论他们对未来发展方向的建议;(4)促进理论学者和三位对动机研究提出不同观点的评论者之间的互动对话。最后,我概述了本期特刊中包含的五篇理论文章和三篇评论。
In this article, I introduce the current special issue, which brings together leading scholars who either initiated or played subsequent central roles in the inception and development of five prominent theories of academic motivation: attribution theory, expectancy-value theory, social-cognitive theory, achievement goal theory, and self-determination theory. I begin by discussing the need for a special issue devoted to these theories and then summarize its overarching goals: (1) provide an outlet for leading theorists to update their work; (2) cast a spotlight on three underexplored and timely issues regarding motivation theory (diversity, methodology, and interventions); (3) have leading scholars discuss their recommendations for future directions; and (4) facilitate an interactive dialog between and among the theorists and three commentators who suggest alternative perspectives on the study of motivation. I conclude with an overview of the five theory articles and three commentaries included in this special issue.
