Description

Achievement and Motivation was originally published in 1993.

It provides a comprehensive review of research conducted on the topic in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Most particularly, it focuses on the research of those in the field who tackle the issue from a social-developmental perspective.

The basic theme concerns the relation between motivation (why one does something) and achievement (how one performs on a variety of tasks and activities) in education settings specifically.

It successfully engages with educational concerns about student interest in learning and their subsequent performance.

It will still be a useful point of reference for any readers involved in the social-developmental study of achievement and motivation in schools, as it comprehensively documents the progression of this topic in the years leading up to its 1993 publication.
