Abstract

Background: Encouraging students to adopt a mastery goal orientation can help increase learning and motivation. However, the effect of mastery goal orientation interventions speci fi cally in upper-division online elective psychology courses has not been studied. Objective: The purpose of this replication study was to examine the effects of a mastery goal intervention on fear of failure, mastery and performance-approach goals, self-ef fi cacy, and academic performance over time. Method: Fiftyeight students enrolled in an online upper-division educational psychology course were randomly assigned to an experimental or control group. The experimental group engaged in activities that steered them toward a mastery goal orientation, while the control group completed a stress management activity. Outcomes were measured four times during the study. Results: Contrary to our predictions, there were no signi fi cant differences between conditions on any of the outcomes. Conclusion: Although a mastery adoption intervention has been shown to be effective in prior studies, the current intervention had no impact on students in an upper-level online psychology course. Teaching Implications: Considering that a mastery goal orientation is consistently linked to adaptive academic outcomes, potentially impactful ways to apply the intervention are discussed.
《心理学教学》近期文章摘要
背景:鼓励学生采用掌握目标导向有助于提高学习和动力。然而,尚未对高级在线选修心理学课程中特定的掌握目标导向干预措施的效果进行研究。目的:本复制研究的目的是检验掌握目标干预对失败恐惧、掌握和表现方法目标、自我效能和学习成绩的影响。方法:58名参加在线高等教育心理学课程的学生被随机分配到实验组或对照组。实验组参与的活动引导他们朝着掌握目标的方向发展,而对照组则完成了压力管理活动。研究期间对结果进行了四次测量。结果:与我们的预测相反,在任何结果上,条件之间都没有显著差异。结论:尽管在先前的研究中,掌握-采用干预措施被证明是有效的,但目前的干预措施对参加高级在线心理学课程的学生没有影响。教学启示:考虑到掌握目标导向与适应性学术成果始终相关,讨论了应用干预措施的潜在影响方式。
