Relationship Between Academic Motivation and Mathematics Achievement Among Indian Adolescents in Canada and India

Abstract: This study examined the relationships between academic motivation-intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, amotivation-and mathematics achievement among 363 Indian adolescents in India and 355 Indian immigrant adolescents in Canada. Results of hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and amotivation were not statistically significantly related to mathematics achievement among Indian adolescents in India. In contrast, both intrinsic motivation and extr… Show more

“…In addition, the results show that extrinsic motivation was not a significant predictor of students' academic achievement in the presence of the other two affective variables (i.e., intrinsic motivation and anxiety level). This result is consistent with other studies which found that extrinsic motivation is less effective on students' achievement compared with intrinsic motivation (e.g., Areepattamannil, 2014b;Lemos & Veríssimo, 2014;Lin, McKeachie, & Kim, 2003). …”

“…It was found that intrinsic motivation pushes learners towards using multiple learning resources and higher order learning strategies (Yusri et al, 2013). Also, intrinsic motivation, but not extrinsic motivation, was reported to significantly predict course grades of students (e.g., Areepattamannil, 2014b;Lepper, Corpus, & Iyengar, 2005;Lynch, 2006).…”

“…Studies claimed that Mathematics Learning Strategy factors are all significant in improving students' mathematical achievement (Areepattamannil, 2014;Ifamuyiwa & Ajilogba, 2012;Sartawi, Alsawaie, Dodeen, Tii, & Alghazo, 2012). However, regardless of their comprehensive findings, there is still the need to investigate the factors on a global scale and in the context of Jordan as there is still a gap in literature (Hammoury, 2004;Roviro & Sancho-Vinuesa, 2012).…”
