要約: | Using a descriptive study design, this research determined how task effort cost, emotion
cost, loss of valued alternatives, outside effort cost, social cost, economic cost and sunk
cost along with expectancy for success and task value formed a criterion related profile
associated with higher academic performance. It used the survey method to gather data
from a total of 226 college students enrolled in a high-stake math class. Findings revealed
three significant criterion related factors, namely expectancy for success, task value and
sunk cost. This motivation profile indicated a high score in expectancy for success, an even
higher score in task value and a low score in sunk cost, Β = .43, t(224) = 7.22, p < .001.
Relationships for the first two confirmed the hypothesized direction while the last one
illustrated an inverse connection. Results are discussed in light of the expectancy-value-cost theory and existing studies. This research has implications on the nuances of the
construct of cost, on pedagogic relevance, and on school and counseling psychology. |
