An investigation of the relationship between motivation and academic achievement of Pre-service chemistry teachers

Öz:

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, motivasyon ile akademik başarı arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır. Bunun yanında, cinsiyet ile sınıflar arasındaki motivasyon farklılıkları da incelenmiştir. Kimya öğretmen adayları (n=168) ölçek olarak Vallerand'in 1992'de hazırladığı Akademik Motivasyon Ölçeği'ni (AMÖ) doldurmuştur. Akademik Motivasyon Ölçeği (AMÖ) içsel motivasyon (öğrenmek için, başarıya doğru ve uyarım yaşama), dışsal motivasyon (farkına varılmak, içe yansımış ve dış kontrol) ve motivasyonsuzluk alt ölçeklerini içeren 28 tane Likert tarzı sorudan oluşmaktadır. Analiz sonuçlarında , akademik başarı ile sadece iki içsel motivasyon (bilgi ve uyarım yaşama) arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca, kızlar motivasyon alt boyutlarında erkeklere göre daha yüksek değerler almaktadır. Kızlarla erkekler arasında anlamlı fark sadece içsel motivasyon- uyarım yaşama alt ölçeğinde bulunmaktadır. Sınıf farkını göz önüne aldığımızda ise, sınıflar arasında tek fark dışsal motivasyon- içe yansımış alt ölçeğinde gözlenmektedir.

The main purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between academic achievement and motivation. In addition, motivational differences between gender and year level were investigated. Pre-service chemistry teachers (n=168 ) completed the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) which was prepared by Vallerend (1992) as an intrument. The AMS consisted of 28 Likert-type scale questions related to intrinsic motivation (to know, toward accomplishment, and to experience stimulation), extrinsic motivation (identified, introjected, and external regulation) and amotivation. The results indicated that there is only one significant relationship that is between academic achievement and two intrinsic motivation subscales (to know and to experience stimulation). Besides, females got higher scores in all motivation types. The results show only significant differences between males and females for intrinsic motivation to experience stimulation. With regard to year level, there is significant difference in motivation by year in one subscale of extrinsic motivation introjected.
