作者调查了探索性价值重评干预对本科生统计学入门课程的动机和表现的影响。他们在秋季和春季两个学期从两个教师部门抽取了82名学生。学生们被随机分配到每个部分的价值重新评估（VR）或控制条件（C）。虚拟实境展示了统计的重要性，并引导学生探索学习统计的潜在价值。结果显示，VR对任务价值、内生工具性和兴趣的选择行为测量有积极影响。作者发现VR会影响考试成绩，但仅适用于有特定教师的学生。这项研究有助于扩大文献的自我调节和期望价值模型的动机，专注于调节的价值观念。
The authors investigated the effects of an exploratory value-reappraisal intervention on students' motivation and performance in an undergraduate introductory statistics course. They sampled 82 students from 2 instructors' sections during both the fall and spring semesters. Students were randomly assigned within each section to either the Value-Reappraisal (VR) or Control condition (C). VR presented messages about the importance of statistics and guided students in exploring potential values of learning statistics. Results showed positive effects of VR on task value, endogenous instrumentality, and a choice-behavior measure of interest. The authors found VR to affect exam performance, but only for students who had a particular instructor. This research helps broaden literature on self-regulation and expectancy-value models of motivation by focusing on the regulation of value perceptions.
