Es wird vermutet, dass eine von mehreren Variablen des Funktionszustandes der Flow-Zustand w{\"a}hrend des Lernens ist. In einer Untersuchung in universit{\"a}ren Fremdsprachenkursen zeigte sich in der Tat, dass Flow-Erleben w{\"a}hrend des Unterrichts die sp{\"a}teren Lernleistungen auch dann vorhersagt, wenn der Leistungseffekt relevanter Lernkompetenzvariablen vorweg ber{\"u}cksichtigt wird. Gem{\"a}ß dem kognitiv-motivationalen Prozessmodell wird Flow-Erleben seinerseits {\"u}ber die aktuelle Motivation vor der Lernphase vorhergesagt, wobei die wiederum von einer allgemeineren Motivationsvariablen zu Semesterbeginn abh{\"a}ngt. Diese Struktur wurde in einer zweiten Untersuchung repliziert und zwar an Studenten im Verlauf ihrer Statistikausbildung im Fach Psychologie.

Moreover, student motivation was only related with student reports but not teacher reports of instructional practices. In particular, mastery-oriented practices contributed strongly to student motivation. Teacher educational interest predicted mastery-oriented practices and also showed a significant direct relation to student motivation. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc.

Based on the stage-environment fit theory, this study investigated the interrelation of developmental changes in student class-level interest and perceived teacher support in mathematics classes over one school year after the students transitioned to secondary school. We also examined how teacher-reported enthusiasm was related to these changes. Data of 1000 students (53.6\% male) and their classroom teachers (N = 42), who were surveyed at the beginning of Grades 5 and 6, were analyzed. The results showed a significant decline in class-level mathematics interest and perceived teacher support. Teacher-reported enthusiasm buffered the decline in class-level mathematics interest. When including bidirectional relationships between perceived teacher support and the students' interest, perceived class-level teacher support in Grade 5 positively predicted the change in student interest and, thus, buffered the decline.}, language = {en} } @article{SoemerIdsardiMinnaertetal.2019, author = {Soemer, Alexander and Idsardi, Hilda Marije and Minnaert, Alexander and Schiefele, Ulrich}, title = {Mind wandering and reading comprehension in secondary school children}, series = {Learning and individual differences}, volume = {75}, journal = {Learning and individual differences}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1041-6080}, doi = {10.1016/j.lindif.2019.101778}, pages = {11}, year = {2019}, abstract = {This study investigated predictors of mind wandering during reading and their effects on comprehension in a sample of secondary school children. One hundred and twenty-five eighth-graders read either an easy, moderately difficult, or difficult version of an expository text and subsequently answered a number of comprehension questions. Students were asked about their thoughts during reading, their propensity to mind wander in various life situations, as well as their interest in the topics of the text. Overall, the results were consistent with the general mind wandering literature: More difficult texts were associated with lower topic interest, more mind wandering during reading, and worse comprehension. Topic interest was negatively related to mind wandering during reading. Furthermore, the propensity to mind wander in daily life had both a positive effect and a negative effect on comprehension, the latter being mediated by mind wandering during reading. Based on these results, it is argued that mind wandering may benefit school children's reading comprehension if it is applied in appropriate situations and for activities that promote comprehension.}, language = {en} } @article{SoemerSchiefele2019, author = {Soemer, Alexander and Schiefele, Ulrich}, title = {Text difficulty, topic interest, and mind wandering during reading}, series = {Learning and instruction : the journal of the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction}, volume = {61}, journal = {Learning and instruction : the journal of the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {0959-4752}, doi = {10.1016/j.learninstruc.2018.12.006}, pages = {12 -- 22}, year = {2019}, abstract = {The present article deals with the question of how the difficulty of a text affects a reader's tendency to engage in task-unrelated thinking (mind wandering) during reading, and the potential role of topic interest as a mediator of the relation between text difficulty and mind wandering. Two-hundred and sixteen participants read three texts with each text either being easy, moderate, or difficult in terms of readability and cohesion. From time to time during reading, participants were interrupted and required to indicate whether they were voluntarily or involuntarily engaging in mind wandering. After reading each text, they rated their interest in and familiarity with the topic, and subsequently answered a number of comprehension questions. The results revealed that reading difficult texts increased both voluntary and involuntary mind wandering and this increase partially explained the negative relation between text difficulty and comprehension.
