Yet, little is known about these relations in elementary school. The present study examined the longitudinal effects of teachers' self-efficacy on student-perceived teacher support and students' mathematics interest with a sample of 2082 students and 133 teachers in third and fourth grade. Results revealed that teachers' self-efficacy was longitudinally related to student-perceived support, which in turn was positively related to students' interest. The findings underline the relevance of teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and teacher support for the development of students' interest in elementary school.}, language = {en} } @article{HettingerLazaridesRetelsdorf2022, author = {Hettinger, Katharina and Lazarides, Rebecca and Retelsdorf, Jan}, title = {Interindividuell unterschiedliche Ver{\"a}nderungen der Lesemotivation}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Erziehungswissenschaft}, volume = {25}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Erziehungswissenschaft}, number = {2}, publisher = {Springer Vieweg-Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH}, address = {Wiesbaden}, issn = {1434-663X}, doi = {10.1007/s11618-022-01076-1}, pages = {353 -- 376}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Reading motivation is highly significant for students' reading achievement and varies interindividual. However, only few studies investigate changes in reading motivation patterns considering student gender, reading achievement and teaching behavior. These results would allow adaptive teaching. In this longitudinal study we aim to close this research gap by examining students' valuing of reading and reading self-concept using data from N = 1313 German fifth- and sixth-grade students (50.0\% girls). Results of latent profile analyses identified three motivational profiles: 'Low intrinsic value', 'Moderate reading motivation' and 'High reading motivation'. Highly supportive teaching-as perceived by students-in Grade 5 was significantly associated with a lower probability to change in the 'Low intrinsic value profile' instead into the 'High reading motivation profile'. Girls and high achievers in reading changed less likely into the 'Moderate reading motivation profile' than into the 'High reading motivation profile'. Implications for teaching are discussed.}, language = {de} } @article{LazaridesGaspardDicke2019, author = {Lazarides, Rebecca and Gaspard, Hanna and Dicke, Anna-Lena}, title = {Dynamics of classroom motivation}, series = {Learning and instruction : the journal of the European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction}, volume = {60}, 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.2018.01.012}, pages = {126 -- 137}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Interest is important for successful student learning, but little is known about the developmental dynamics between interest and social support in classrooms. 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} }
