Unit 7 – Motivation, Emotion, and Personality
Topic 7.2
What is the correlation between intrinsic motivation for learning and academic achievement based on Deci and Ryan’s Self-Determination Theory?
There is no correlation; students' motivations have no impact on academic achievements.
A negative relationship exists; highly self-motivated students often perform poorly academically.
A positive relationship exists because internally motivated students tend to perform better academically.
The correlation fluctuates unpredictably due to differences in individual learning styles.
