abstract |
Empirical studies into meaning systems surrounding implicit theories of intelligence
typically entail two stringent assumptions: that different implicit theories and different
effort beliefs represent opposite poles on a single scale, and that implicit theories
directly impact the constructs as achievement goals and academic motivations. Through
an empirical study based on a large sample of university students, we aim to demonstrate
that relaxing these stringent assumptions, and thereby using the meaning system framework
to its full potential, will provide strong benefits: effort beliefs are crucial mediators
of relationships between implicit theories and achievement goals and academic motivations,
and the different poles of implicit theories and effort beliefs do expose different
relationships with goal setting behaviour and academic motivations. A structural equation
model, cross-validated by demonstrating gender-invariance of path coefficients, demonstrates
that incremental and entity theory views have less predictive power than positive
and negative effort beliefs in explaining achievement goals and motivations. |
