“…Researchers have also investigated the effects of utility value interventions with college students. In both laboratory and classroom settings, findings from intervention studies supported the idea that utility value interventions could be used to improve students' interest (Durik et al, 2015;Fritea & Opre, 2015;Geerling et al, 2019;Hulleman et al, 2010Hulleman et al, , 2017Kera & Nakaya, 2017;Shechter et al, 2011), perceived utility value of a particular course (Canning & Harackiewicz, 2015;Clinton & Kelly, 2017Curry et al, 2020;Fritea & Opre, 2015;Kosovich et al, 2019;Lindeman et al, 2018;Rosenzweig, Harackiewicz, et al, 2019), and performance (Canning et al, 2018;Canning & Harackiewicz, 2015). Importantly, the intervention appeared to work best for students who needed it the most: students with low expectancies for success, first-generation college students, and students from marginalized groups (Durik et al, 2015;Harackiewicz et al, 2016;Hulleman et al, 2017).…”
