“…Accordingly, given such limitations of self-reports of goal orientation, future extensions of the present study may do well to include observer ratings along with self-ratings of goal orientation.

This research examines how individualism-collectivism and goal orientation impact training effectiveness through study of an internationally diverse sample of engineers who were undergoing technical training. In light of contemporary views of individualism-collectivism, we argue that collectivism will moderate the influence of learning and performance goal orientations on training by shaping the impact of one's perceived social context on existing performance concerns and goals. Using a sample from a large multinational corporation, we examined the effects of individualism-collectivism and goal orientation on training transfer intentions, motivation to learn, and test performance. Mixed support for our hypotheses was found. Collectivists were found to exhibit higher levels of training transfer intentions and motivation to learn. However, when collectivism was combined with a performance goal orientation, its effects on training outcomes were diminished. Applications for organizations and future extensions of the present research are discussed.i jtd_326 185..201 Goal orientation, the cognitive framework that guides responses to implicit goals in performance and learning contexts, continues to be a prominent topic of interest within the training literature. One investigation of job software training confirmed that goal ❒ Altovise Rogers, MS, Doctoral Student,
