Validating a Rapid Measure of Student Motivation: Using the Expectancy-Value Theory of Motivation to Understand Student Achievement and Interest in STEM Classrooms

这个全规模项目的重点是开发一个快速的、经过验证的规模。该量表将被教师、管理人员和评估人员使用，根据基于期望价值理论（EVT）的理论观点来衡量学生的动机。该项目采用混合方法来建立有效可靠的测量，并建立了一个寻求六种效度和信度的效度框架。通过开发和验证度量，项目团队成员将增加对期望-价值-成本激励模型中成本因素的理解方面的教育和评估理论。就实际适用性而言，由此产生的量表将可广泛用于预测重要的学习指标，并为学生提供潜在的进一步干预措施，以改善动机和其他学习成果。

This full scale project focuses on the development of a rapid, validated scale. The scale will be used by teachers, administrators, and evaluators to measure student motivation in accordance with a theoretical view grounded in Expectancy-Value Theory (EVT). The project features a mixed methods approach to establishing the valid and reliable measure along with an established validity framework seeking six types of validity and reliability. By developing and validating the measure, the project team members will add to education and evaluation theory in terms of informing understanding of the cost factor in the Expectancy-Value-Cost model of motivation. In terms of practical applicability, the resulting scale will be available for widespread use to predict important learning indicators and inform potential further interventions with students to improve motivation and other learning outcomes.
