- Autonomous and Controlled Motivation Combined with Achievement Goals
- Limitations and Future Directions
Students’ spontaneous responses elicited statements implying autonomous and controlled motivation and achievement goals. We found that students’ statements mostly fell into the conceptualization of autonomous and controlled types of motivation (as described by SDT), as well as of outcome, mastery-learning, and performance-normative achievement goal...
We found that most of the students’ statements regarding achievement aims were combined with either autonomous or controlled reasons.

Achievement goal theories ( Dweck, 1986; Elliot, 1999; Nicholls, 1984, 1989) are based on the notion that variations in the way in which individuals judge their own ability (i.e., perceptions of competence) and define successful accomplishments are critical antecedents for understanding young athletes’ motivational processes ( Duda, 2001 ).
“Achieve” refers to successfully reaching a desired outcome or goal, while “strive” means to make a great effort or attempt to achieve something. So, which of these words is the proper one to use? The answer is: it depends on the context.
Achievement motivation can, therefore, be defined as the striving to increase or to keep as high as possible, one’s own capabilities in all activities in which a standard of excellence is thought to apply and where the execution of such activities can, therefore either succeed or fail. (Heckhausen, 1967, p. 4-5)
