“…Collating the previous research together and drawing particularly from Daniels et al (2008) , Tuominen-Soini et al (2008 , 2012) , Luo et al (2011) , Lo et al (2017) , and Jiang et al (2018) students with profiles high in mastery were anticipated to demonstrate adaptive well-being (e.g., low cost, high engagement, low burnout), students with profiles high in both mastery and performance were anticipated to demonstrate maladaptive along with adaptive well-being (e.g., high cost, high engagement, high exhaustion), students with profiles characterized by average scores on all orientations were anticipated to show moderate well-being (e.g., average cost, engagement, and burnout), and students with profiles high on avoidance goals were anticipated to demonstrate maladaptive academic well-being (e.g., low engagement, high cynicism), that is, as suggested by Watt et al (2019) , besides the consistently adaptive (e.g., mastery-oriented) and maladaptive (e.g., avoidance-oriented) profiles, we also expected to find asynchronous profiles (e.g., success-oriented), in which not only achievement goals but also costs would be high and which might further exert some deleterious effects on academic well-being (e.g., high emotional exhaustion and stress; see also Tuominen-Soini et al, 2008 ), regardless of high engagement ( Tuominen et al, 2020b ).…”
