中学生学业成就动机归因训练效果的追踪研究

研究用定性和定量相结合的研究方法，对13年前为初中生进行的成就动机训练效果进行了追踪研究。结果显示，与对照组相比，这些受训者在任务选择、行为强度和坚持性方面均表现出较高水平；成功期望较强烈；对成功或成就倾向于作能力、努力归因。这一结果表明，归因训练能够对人产生深远的影响，动机的改善具有长期效果。

A Follow-up Study on the Effect of Attributional Training for Achievement Motivation

This study is based on Bernard Weiner's attribution theory of achievement motivation.In 1989 we trained thirty-eight middle school students on the attribution of achievement for seven weeks, once a week. The result was that the trainees improved their achievement motivation notably.Thirteen years later, we retested their achievement motivation and attribution of achievement. Compared with their colleagues, they were significantly superior in task choosing, behavioral intensity, persistence and attributional tendency. This study reveals that the effect of attributional training for achievement motivation can deeply influence one's character.
