Abstract | Individual differences in emotion, cognitions, and task choice following achievement failure are found among four- to seven-year-olds. However, neither performance deterioration during failure nor generalization after failure--aspects of the helpless pattern in 10-year-olds--have been reliably demonstrated in this age group. In the present study, 78 second graders worked on a series of unsolvable and solvable puzzles and then on a figure-matching task. We assessed levels of performance concern and performance-contingent self-worth, and their relations to performance during and after failure. As predicted, performance concern and performance-contingent self-worth were independent self-regulatory processes. Performance concern was related to strategy use during and after failure and performance-contingent self-worth was related to postfailure performance. These results provide empirical support for Burhans and Dweck's model of the origins of individual differences in motivation. Similarities in behaviors and mechanisms of effect for children's and adults' responses to failure are discussed. (As Provided). |
