Abstract | A study of the predictive power of motivational variables for 154 gifted students in introductory physics courses at German college preparatory high schools found achievement differences were influenced by the talent variable with no significant influence for either approach or avoidance motivation. However, approach motivation positively influenced self-perceptions of competence and intended elective choices. (Contains references.) (Author/DB) |
