TY - THES A1 - Kwarikunda, Diana T1 - Interest, motivation, and learning strategies use during physics learning T1 - Interesse, Motivation und Einsatz von Lernstrategien beim Physikunterricht N2 - The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the developmental dynamics between interest, motivation, and learning strategy use during physics learning. The target population was lower secondary school students from a developing country, given that there is hardly in research that studies the above domain-specific concepts in the context of developing countries. The aim was addressed in four parts. The first part of the study was guided by three objectives: (a) to adapt and validate the Science Motivation Questionnaire (SMQ-II) for the Ugandan context; (b) to examine whether there are significant differences in motivation for learning Physics with respect to students’ gender; and (c) to establish the extent to which students’ interest predicts their motivation to learn Physics. Being a pilot study, the sample comprised 374 randomly selected students from five schools in central Uganda who responded to anonymous questionnaires that included scales from the SMQ-II and the Individual Interest Questionnaire. Data were analysed using confirmatory factor analyses, t-tests and structural equation modelling in SPSS-25 and Mplus-8. The five-factor model solution of the SMQ-II fitted adequately with the study data, with deletion of one item. The modified SMQ-II exhibited invariant factor loadings and intercepts (i.e., strong measurement invariance) when administered to boys and girls. Furthermore, on assessing whether motivation for learning Physics varied with gender, no significant differences were noted. On assessing the predictive effects of individual interest on students’ motivation, individual interest significantly predicted all motivational constructs, with stronger predictive strength on students’ self-efficacy and self-determination in learning Physics. In the second part whilst using comprised 934 Grade 9 students from eight secondary schools in Uganda, Latent profile analysis (LPA) - a person-centred approach was used to investigate motivation patterns that exist in lower secondary school students during physics learning. A three-step approach to LPA was used to answer three research questions: RQ1, which profiles of secondary school students exist with regards to their motivation for Physics learning; RQ2, are there differences in students’ cognitive learning strategies in the identified profiles; and RQ3, does students’ gender, attitudes, and individual interest predict membership in these profiles? Six motivational profiles were identified: (i) low-quantity motivation profile (101 students; 10.8%); (ii) moderate-quantity motivation profile (246 students; 26.3%); (iii) high-quantity motivation profile (365 students; 39.1%); (iv) primarily intrinsically motivated profile (60 students,6.4%); (v) mostly extrinsically motivated profile (88 students, 9.4%); and (vi) grade-introjected profile (74 students, 7.9%). Low-quantity and grade introjected motivated students mostly used surface learning strategies whilst the high-quantity and primarily intrinsically motivated students used deep learning strategies. On examining the predictive effect of gender, individual interest, and students’ attitudes on the profile membership, unlike gender, individual interest and students’ attitudes towards Physics learning strongly predicted profile membership. In the third part of the study, the occurrence of different secondary school learner profiles depending on their various combinations of cognitive and metacognitive learning strategy use, as well as their differences in perceived autonomy support, intrinsic motivation, and gender was examined. Data were collected from 576 9th grade student. Four learner profiles were identified: competent strategy user, struggling user, surface-level learner, and deep-level learner profiles. Gender differences were noted in students’ use of elaboration and organization strategies to learn Physics, in favour of girls. In terms of profile memberships, significant differences in gender, intrinsic motivation and perceived autonomy support were also noted. Girls were 2.4 - 2.7 times more likely than boys to be members of the competent strategy user and surface-level learner profiles. Additionally, higher levels of intrinsic motivation predicted an increased likelihood membership into the deep-level learner profile, whilst higher levels of perceived teacher autonomy predicted an increased likelihood membership into the competent strategy user profile as compared to other profiles. Lastly, in the fourth part, changes in secondary school students’ physics motivation and cognitive learning strategies use during physics learning across time were examined. Two waves of data were collected from initially 954 9th students through to their 10th grade. A three-step approach to Latent transition analysis was used. Generally, students’ motivation decreased from 9th to 10th grade. Qualitative students’ motivation profiles indicated strong with-in person stability whilst the quantitative profiles were relatively less stable. Mostly, students moved from the high quantity motivation profile to the extrinsically motivated profiles. On the other hand, the cognitive learning strategies use profiles were moderately stable; with higher with-in person stability in the deep-level learner profile. None of the struggling users and surface-level learners transitioned into the deep-level learners’ profile. Additionally, students who perceived increased support for autonomy from their teachers had higher membership likelihood into the competent users’ profiles whilst those with an increase in individual interest score had higher membership likelihood into the deep-level learner profile. N2 - Das Ziel dieser Arbeit war es, die Entwicklungsdynamik zwischen Interesse, Motivation und dem Einsatz von Lernstrategien während des Physikunterrichts zu untersuchen. Die Zielpopulation waren Schüler der Sekundarstufe I aus einem Entwicklungsland, da es in der Forschung kaum Forschung gibt, die die oben genannten domänenspezifischen Konzepte im Kontext von Entwicklungsländern Ländern untersucht. Das Ziel wurde in vier Teilen verfolgt. Der erste Teil der Studie wurde von drei Zielen geleitet: (a) Anpassung und Validierung des Fragebogens zur Wissenschaftsmotivation (SMQ-II) für den ugandischen Kontext; (b) die Untersuchung ob es signifikante Unterschiede in der Motivation für das Lernen von Physik in Bezug auf das Geschlecht der SchülerInnen gibt; und (c) das Ausmaß, in dem das Interesse der SchülerInnen ihre Motivation zum Lernen von Physik vorhersagt. Da es sich um eine Pilotstudie handelt, umfasste die Stichprobe 374 zufällig ausgewählte von fünf Schulen in Zentraluganda, die anonyme Fragebögen beantworteten die Skalen aus dem SMQ-II und dem Fragebogen zum individuellen Interesse enthielten. Die Daten wurden mittels konfirmatorischer Faktorenanalysen, t-Tests und Strukturgleichungsmodellen in SPSS-25 und Mplus-8. Die Lösung des Fünf-Faktoren-Modells der SMQ-II passte adäquat zu den Studiendaten, wobei ein Item gestrichen wurde. Die modifizierte SMQ-II wies invariante Faktorladungen Ladungen und Achsenabschnitte (d. h. starke Messinvarianz), wenn er an Jungen und Mädchen. Darüber hinaus wurden bei der Beurteilung der Frage, ob die Motivation für das Lernen von Physik mit dem Geschlecht variiert, wurden keine signifikanten Unterschiede festgestellt. Bei der Bewertung der prädiktiven Effekte des individuellen Interesse auf die Motivation der Schüler ergab, dass das individuelle Interesse alle Motivationskonstrukte signifikant vorhersagte, wobei die Konstrukte vor, wobei die Vorhersagekraft für die Selbstwirksamkeit und die Selbstbestimmung der Schüler beim Lernen von Physik. Im zweiten Teil, der 934 Schüler der Klasse 9 aus acht Sekundarschulen in Uganda umfasste Schulen in Uganda, wurde die latente Profilanalyse (LPA) - ein personenzentrierter Ansatz - verwendet, um Motivationsmuster zu untersuchen, die bei Schülern der Sekundarstufe I während des Physik lernen. Die LPA wurde in drei Schritten durchgeführt, um drei Forschungsfragen zu beantworten: RQ1, Welche Profile von Sekundarschülern gibt es in Bezug auf ihre Motivation für das Physiklernen? lernen; RQ2, gibt es Unterschiede in den kognitiven Lernstrategien der Schüler in den identifizierten Profilen; und RQ3, sagt das Geschlecht, die Einstellung und das individuelle Interesse der Schüler die Zugehörigkeit zu diesen Profilen vor? Es wurden sechs Motivationsprofile identifiziert: (i) Profil mit geringer QuantitätMotivationsprofil (101 Studierende; 10,8 %); (ii) Motivationsprofil mit mittlerer Quantität (246Studenten; 26,3%); (iii) Motivationsprofil mit hohem Bedarf (365 Studenten; 39,1%); (iv) primär intrinsisch motiviertes Profil (60 Studierende, 6,4%); (v) überwiegend extrinsisch motiviertes Profil (88 Schüler, 9,4 %); und (vi) ein Profil, das von der Note abhängt (74 Schüler, 7,9 %). Geringfügig und Grade-introjizierte motivierte Studierende verwendeten hauptsächlich oberflächliche Lernstrategien, während die hochquantitativen und hauptsächlich intrinsisch motivierten Studierenden tiefgehende Lernstrategien verwendeten. Auf Untersuchung des prädiktiven Effekts des Geschlechts, des individuellen Interesses und der Einstellung der Studierenden auf die Profilzugehörigkeit: Im Gegensatz zum Geschlecht haben das individuelle Interesse und die Einstellung der Schüler zum Physik eine starke Vorhersage der Profilzugehörigkeit. Im dritten Teil der Studie wird das Auftreten unterschiedlicher Lernerprofile in der Sekundarstufe Lernenden der Sekundarstufe in Abhängigkeit von den verschiedenen Kombinationen kognitiver und metakognitiver und metakognitiven Lernstrategien sowie die Unterschiede in der wahrgenommenen Autonomieunterstützung, der intrinsischen Motivation und Geschlecht untersucht. Es wurden Daten von 576 Schülern der 9. Klasse erhoben. Vier Lernende wurden vier Lernerprofile identifiziert: kompetente Strategieanwender, schwierige Anwender, oberflächliche Lerner und Profile mit tiefem Lernniveau. Es wurden geschlechtsspezifische Unterschiede bei der Verwendung von Elaborations- und Organisationsstrategien für das Erlernen von Physik, wobei Mädchen bevorzugt wurden. In Bezug auf die Zugehörigkeit zu den Profilen, wurden signifikante Unterschiede in Bezug auf Geschlecht, intrinsische Motivation und wahrgenommene Autonomieunterstützung wurden ebenfalls festgestellt. Mädchen gehörten mit 2,4 bis 2,7-mal höherer Wahrscheinlichkeit als Jungen zu den kompetenten Strategieanwender- und Oberflächenniveau-Lernprofilen. Darüber hinaus sagten höhere Werte der intrinsischen Motivation eine höhere Wahrscheinlichkeit für die Zugehörigkeit zum Profil der tiefgründigen Lernenden voraus, während ein höheres Maß an wahrgenommener Lehrerautonomie eine höhere Wahrscheinlichkeit für eine Zugehörigkeit zum Profil des kompetenten Strategieanwenders im Vergleich zu den anderen Profilen. Im vierten Teil schließlich wurden die Veränderungen in der Physikmotivation von Sekundarschülern und die Verwendung kognitiver Lernstrategien während des Physikunterrichts im Laufe der Zeit untersucht. In zwei Wellen wurden die Daten von ursprünglich 954 Schülern der 9. bis zur 10. Es wurde ein dreistufiger Ansatz der latenten Übergangsanalyse verwendet. Im Allgemeinen nahm die Motivation der Schüler von der 9. zur 10.Klasse ab. Die qualitativen Motivationsprofile der Schüler zeigten eine starke Stabilität innerhalb der Person, während die quantitativen Profile relativ weniger stabil waren. Meistens, wechselten die Schüler vom Profil der hohen quantitativen Motivation zu den extrinsisch motivierten Profilen. Andererseits waren die Profile für die Nutzung kognitiver Lernstrategien mäßig stabil, wobei das Profil der tiefgründig Lernenden eine höhere Stabilität aufwies. Keiner der schwierigen Nutzer und der oberflächlichen Lernenden ging in das Profil der tiefgründigen Lernenden über. Darüber hinaus hatten Schüler, die von ihren Lehrern eine stärkere Unterstützung der Autonomie wahrnahmen eine höhere Zugehörigkeitswahrscheinlichkeit zu den Profilen der kompetenten Nutzer, während die Schüler mit einer höheren individuellem Interesse eine höhere Zugehörigkeitswahrscheinlichkeit zum Profil der tiefgründigen Lernenden hatten Profil aufwiesen.

A1 - Wiwatowska, Ewa A1 - Weymar, Mathias T1 - Brain potentials reveal reduced attention and error-processing during a monetary Go/No-Go task in procrastination JF - Scientific reports N2 - Procrastination is a self-regulatory problem of voluntarily and destructively delaying intended and necessary or personally important tasks. Previous studies showed that procrastination is associated with executive dysfunctions that seem to be particularly strong in punishing contexts. In the present event-related potential (ERP) study a monetary version of the parametric Go/No-Go task was performed by high and low academic procrastinators to verify the influence of motivational context (reward vs. punishment expectation) and task difficulty (easy vs. hard) on procrastination-related executive dysfunctions. The results revealed increased post-error slowing along with reduced P300 and error-related negativity (ERN) amplitudes in high (vs. low) procrastination participants-effects that indicate impaired attention and error-related processing in this group. This pattern of results did not differ as a function of task difficulty and motivation condition. However, when the task got more difficult executive attention deficits became even more apparent at the behavioral level in high procrastinators, as indexed by increased reaction time variability. The findings substantiate prior preliminary evidence that procrastinators show difficulties in certain aspects of executive functioning (in attention and error processing) during execution of task-relevant behavior, which may be more apparent in highly demanding situations.

ART aims to explain and predict behavior in situations in which people either remain in a state of physical inactivity or initiate action (exercise). It is a dual-process model and assumes that exercise-related stimuli trigger automatic associations and a resulting automatic affective valuation of exercise (type-1 process). The automatic affective valuation forms the basis for the reflective evaluation (type-2 process), which can follow if self-control resources are available. The automatic affective valuation is connected with an action impulse, whereas the reflective evaluation can result in action plans. The two processes, in constant interaction, direct the individual towards or away from changing behavior. The ART of physical inactivity and exercise predicts that, when there is an affective-reflective discrepancy and self-control resources are low, behavior is more likely to be governed by the affective type-1 process. This introductory article explains the underlying concepts and main theoretical roots from which the ART of physical inactivity and exercise was developed (field theory, affective responses to exercise, automatic evaluation, evaluation-behavior link, dual-process theorizing). We also summarize the empirical tests that have been conducted to refine the theory in its present form.

Two dimensions of intrinsic reading motivation (involvement and curiosity) and two dimensions of extrinsic reading motivation (recognition and competition) were considered. Latent profile analyses revealed the same set of four profiles across third and fourth grades: high intrinsic (i.e., high on involvement and curiosity, low on recognition and competition), high involvement (i.e., high on involvement, low on the remaining dimensions), high quantity (high on all dimensions), and moderate quantity (low to moderate on all dimensions). Further results showed that 35% of the students changed their profile membership from third to fourth grade. We particularly observed an increased probability of students in the high-quantity, moderate-quantity, and high-involvement profiles to move to the high-intrinsic profile. Finally, the moderate-quantity profile proved to be significantly lower in reading amount than the other groups that did not differ significantly. Pertaining to reading comprehension, however, the two intrinsic profiles outperformed both the high- and moderate-quantity groups. The latter finding emphasizes the particular importance of intrinsic reading motivation.

The affective–reflective theory of physical inactivity and exercise (ART) proposes a theoretical framework for explaining how the automatic affective process (type‑1 process) will influence exercise behavior, i.e., through the automatic activation of exercise-related associations and a subsequent affective valuation of exercise. This study aimed to empirically test this assumption of the ART with data from 69 study participants. A single-measurement study, including within-subject experimental variation, was conducted. Automatic associations with exercise were first measured with a single-target implicit association test. The somato-affective core of the participants’ automatic valuation of exercise-related pictures was then assessed via heart rate variability (HRV) analysis, and the affective valence of the valuation was tested with a facial expression (FE; smile and frown) task. Exercise behavior was assessed via self-report. Multiple regression (path) analysis revealed that automatic associations predicted HRV reactivity (β = −0.24, p = .044); the signs of the correlation between automatic associations and the smile FE score was in the expected direction but remained nonsignificant (β = −0.21, p = .078). HRV reactivity predicted self-reported exercise behavior (β = −0.28, p = .013) (the same pattern of results was achieved for the frown FE score). The HRV-related results illustrate the potential role of automatic negative affective reactions to the thought of exercise as a restraining force in exercise motivation. For better empirical distinction between the two ART type‑1 process components, automatic associations and the affective valuation should perhaps be measured separately in the future. The results support the notion that automatic and affective processes should be regarded as essential aspects of the motivation to exercise.

This study aimed to test the assumption that the somatic core of this affective response can be identified by means of heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Design: This study followed a within-subject experimental design. Method. Participants were 91 adult men and women whose HR and HRV were monitored whilst they viewed exercise-related and control pictures in a laboratory setting. Results: Analyses revealed a decrease in HRV during the viewing of exercise-related pictures in less physically active participants. These participants reported that the same pictures elicited feelings with relatively low affective valence and arousal. There were no changes in HR.

The (social-cognitive) theories that are commonly applied to explain exercise motivation refer to the assumption that people base their decisions mainly on rational reasoning. However, behavior is not only bound to reflection. In recent years, the role of automaticity and affect for exercise motivation has been increasingly discussed. In this dissertation, central assumptions of the affective–reflective theory of physical inactivity and exercise (ART; Brand & Ekkekakis, 2018), an exercise-specific dual-process theory that emphasizes the role of a momentary automatic affective reaction for exercise-decisions, were examined. The central aim of this dissertation was to investigate exercisers and non-exercisers automatic affective reactions to exercise-related stimuli (i.e., type-1 process). In particular, the two components of the ART’s type-1 process, that are, automatic associations with exercise and the automatic affective valuation to exercise, were under study. In the first publication (Schinkoeth & Antoniewicz, 2017), research on automatic (evaluative) associations with exercise was summarized and evaluated in a systematic review. The results indicated that automatic associations with exercise appeared to be relevant predictors for exercise behavior and other exercise-related variables, providing evidence for a central assumption of the ART’s type-1 process. Furthermore, indirect methods seem to be suitable to assess automatic associations. The aim of the second publication (Schinkoeth, Weymar, & Brand, 2019) was to approach the somato-affective core of the automatic valuation of exercise using analysis of reactivity in vagal HRV while viewing exercise-related pictures. Results revealed that differences in exercise volume could be regressed on HRV reactivity. In light of the ART, these findings were interpreted as evidence of an inter-individual affective reaction elicited at the thought of exercise and triggered by exercise-stimuli. In the third publication (Schinkoeth & Brand, 2019, subm.), it was sought to disentangle and relate to each other the ART’s type-1 process components—automatic associations and the affective valuation of exercise. Automatic associations to exercise were assessed with a recoding-free variant of an implicit association test (IAT). Analysis of HRV reactivity was applied to approach a somatic component of the affective valuation, and facial reactions in a facial expression (FE) task served as indicators of the automatic affective reaction’s valence. Exercise behavior was assessed via self-report. The measurement of the affective valuation’s valence with the FE task did not work well in this study. HRV reactivity was predicted by the IAT score and did also statistically predict exercise behavior. These results thus confirm and expand upon the results of publication two and provide empirical evidence for the type-1 process, as defined in the ART. This dissertation advances the field of exercise psychology concerning the influence of automaticity and affect on exercise motivation. Moreover, both methodical implications and theoretical extensions for the ART can be derived from the results. N2 - Obwohl die meisten Menschen wissen, dass Sport gesund ist, hat ein hoher Prozentsatz Mühe, die empfohlenen Bewegungsumfänge zu erreichen. Sozial-kognitive Theorien, die üblicherweise zur Erklärung von Sportmotivation angewendet werden, stützen sich auf die Annahme, dass Menschen ihre Entscheidungen hauptsächlich auf Grund rationaler Überlegungen treffen. Unser Verhalten ist jedoch nicht immer rational. In den letzten Jahren ist die Rolle von Automatizität und Affekt für die Sportmotivation daher zunehmend diskutiert worden. In dieser Dissertation wurden zentrale Annahmen der affective–reflective theory zur Erklärung von körperlicher Inaktivität und Sporttreiben (ART; Brand & Ekkekakis, 2018), einer sportspezifischen Zwei-Prozesstheorie, die die Rolle einer momentanen automatischen affektiven Reaktion für Sportentscheidungen betont, überprüft. Das zentrale Ziel dieser Dissertation war die Untersuchung automatisch affektiver Reaktionen von Sportlern und Nicht-Sportlern auf sportbezogene Stimuli (i.e., Typ-1-Prozess). Insbesondere wurden die beiden in der ART beschrieben Komponenten dieser automatisch affektiven Reaktion, d.h. die automatischen Assoziationen zu Sport und die automatische affektive Valuation von Sport, untersucht. In der ersten Publikation (Schinkoeth & Antoniewicz, 2017) wurde die Forschung zu automatischen Assoziationen zu Sport in einem systematischen Review zusammengefasst und evaluiert. Die Ergebnisse deuteten darauf hin, dass automatische Assoziationen relevante Prädiktoren für das Sportverhalten und andere sportbezogene Variablen zu sein scheinen, was den Beweis für eine zentrale Annahme des Typ-1-Prozesses der ART lieferte. Darüber hinaus scheinen indirekte Methoden geeignet zu sein um automatische Assoziationen zu messen. Das Ziel der zweiten Publikation (Schinkoeth, Weymar, & Brand, 2019) war es, sich dem somato-affektiven Kern der automatischen Valuation von Sport mittels Analyse der Reaktivität der vagalen HRV bei Betrachtung von Sportbildern zu nähern. Die Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die HRV-Reaktivität Unterschiede im Sportumfang hervorsagen konnte. Im Licht der ART wurden diese Befunde als Hinweis auf eine interindividuelle affektive Reaktion interpretiert, die beim bloßen Gedanken an Sport hervorgerufen und durch die Sportbilder ausgelöst wurde. In der dritten Publikation (Schinkoeth & Brand, 2019, subm.) wurde versucht, die Typ-1-Prozesskomponenten der ART - automatische Assoziationen und die affektive Valuation von Sport - zu trennen und in Beziehung zueinander zu setzen. Automatische Assoziationen zu Sport wurden mit einer rekodierungsfreien Variante eines impliziten Assoziationstests (IAT) gemessen. Die Analyse der HRV-Reaktivität wurde genutzt, um sich einer somatischen Komponente der affektiven Valuation zu nähern, und Gesichtsreaktionen in einer Mimikaufgabe (GR) dienten als Indikatoren für die Valenz der automatischen affektiven Reaktion. Das Bewegungsverhalten wurde mittels Selbstbericht bewertet. Die Messung der Valenz der affektiven Valuation mit der GR-Aufgabe funktionierte in dieser Studie nicht. Es konnte aber gezeigt werden, dass die HRV-Reaktivität durch den IAT-Score hervorgesagt werden konnte und wiederum das selbstberichtete Sportverhalten statistisch vorhersagen konnte. Diese Ergebnisse bestätigen und erweitern somit die Ergebnisse der Publikation zwei und liefern empirische Evidenz für den Typ-1-Prozess, wie er in der ART definiert ist. Die Ergbenisse dieser Dissertation tragen dazu bei die Forschung Rund um den Einfluss von Automatizität und Affekt auf die Sportmotivation entscheidend voran zu treiben. Darüber hinaus lassen sich aus den Ergebnissen sowohl methodische Implikationen als auch theoretische Erweiterungen für die ART ableiten.

In addition, evidence relating to the causal role of motivational factors and to the role of reading behavior as a mediator of the effects of motivation on reading competence is examined. We identify seven genuine dimensions of reading motivation: curiosity, involvement, competition, recognition, grades, compliance, and work avoidance. Evidence for these dimensions comes from both quantitative and qualitative research. Moreover, evidence from previous studies confirms the positive contribution of intrinsic reading motivation, and the relatively small or negative contribution of extrinsic reading motivation, to reading behavior and reading competence. The positive contribution of intrinsic motivation is particularly evident in relation to amount of reading for enjoyment and reading competence and holds even when accounting for relevant control variables. However, the causal role of reading motivation and the mediating role of reading behavior remain largely unresolved issues.
