“…In addition to the approach/avoidance distinction within mastery and performance achievement goals, recently researchers proposed that individuals can endorse multiple goals simultaneously and examined the consequences of the multiple goals (Barron & Harackiewicz, 2001;Daniels et al, 2008;Darnon, Dompnier, Gillieron, & Butera, 2010;Luo et al, 2011;Poortvliet & Darnon, 2010;Tapola & Niemivirta, 2008). For example, some studies (e.g., Barron & Harackiewicz, 2001;Harackiewicz et al, 2000;Harackiewicz, Barron, Carter, Lehto, & Elliot, 1997) examined mastery and performance approach goals and their interaction term in a multiple regression model and reported that the two types of achievement goals were independently beneficial for different measures of academic success.…”
