【 摘 要 】

Motivational beliefs are central role players in shaping academic self-regulation and achievement, which decline significantly as students matriculate secondary-educational contexts. This study uses an advanced latent-profile mixture model analysis to explore and identify the motivational belief profiles of 273 high school students, profile prevalence, and their respective associations with academic self-regulation and achievement. Three motivational profiles were identified, each representing significant proportions of the sample (57%, 22%, 21%, respectively). Each profile exhibited significant relations across indices of academic self regulation and achievement. Practical and theoretical implications are discussed.
