Education, Achievement, and Giftedness Psychometric Methodologies and Testing Motivation and Self-Concept in Sports

Abstract

The authors examine the factor structure of the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS; R. J. Vallerand, L. G. Pelletier, M. R. Blais, N. M. Briere, C. Senecal, & E. F. Vallieres, 1992) with a United States student population. There was some support for a 7-factor structure. Evidence of construct validity examining the relationship with academic self-concept and academic achievement is mixed. Ethnic and gender differences in motivation are discussed.
