- Abstract
- This study integrated four-factor goal orientation theory with goal
setting theory, two related but separate research streams. 335
undergraduate business students participated by indicating their goal
orientations, self-efficacy, and self-set goal for the semester. At the end
of the semester, their final class grade was recorded. Results from the
LISREL mediational model indicated that after controlling for ability, the
four goal orientation variables differentially influenced self-efficacy, self-set goals, and performance. Further, self-efficacy positively influenced
goals and goals positively influenced performance. The integration of a
four-factor model with goal setting processes served as a useful model to
predict academic performance.
