作者指出了当前文献中成就目标测量的几个具体问题,并对这些问题进行了说明,主要集中在A。J. Elliot和H. A. McGregor的成就目标问卷(AGQ)。他们通过创建AGQ修订版并进行一项研究来解决这些问题,该研究对229名本科生(76名男性,150名女性,3名未指明)进行了结构效度和预测效用的研究。该措施的假设因素和尺寸结构得到证实,并显示出优于一系列替代品的上级。这些预测几乎一致支持的前因(需要成就和害怕失败)和后果(内在动机和考试成绩)的4个成就目标。在讨论他们的工作时,作者强调了在成就目标测量领域增加精确度的重要性和价值。
The authors identified several specific problems with the measurement of achievement goals in the current literature and illustrated these problems, focusing primarily on A. J. Elliot and H. A. McGregor's (2001) Achievement Goal Questionnaire (AGQ). They attended to these problems by creating the AGQ-Revised and conducting a study that examined the measure's structural validity and predictive utility with 229 (76 male, 150 female, 3 unspecified) undergraduates. The hypothesized factor and dimensional structures of the measure were confirmed and shown to be superior to a host of alternatives. The predictions were nearly uniformly supported with regard to both the antecedents (need for achievement and fear of failure) and consequences (intrinsic motivation and exam performance) of the 4 achievement goals. In discussing their work, the authors highlight the importance and value of additional precision in the area of achievement goal measurement.
