Cohen, Rinat; Katz, Idit; Aelterman, Nathalie; Vansteenkiste, Maarten – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2023
Students' adaptive motivation to study tends to decrease over time. However, the reasons for this decline are not fully understood. Drawing on self-determination theory (SDT), we investigated whether changes in teachers' motivating style and students' associated need-based experiences could explain the motivational decline documented in the…

Vermote, Branko; Vansteenkiste, Maarten; Aelterman, Nathalie; van der Kaap-Deeder, Jolene; Beyers, Wim – Journal of Experimental Education, 2023

Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Aelterman, Nathalie; Vansteenkiste, Maarten; Haerens, Leen; Soenens, Bart; Fontaine, Johnny R. J.; Reeve, Johnmarshall – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Guided by Self-Determination Theory, we offer an integrative and fine-grained analysis of teachers' classroom motivating style (i.e., autonomy support, structure, control, and chaos) to resolve existing controversies in the literature, such as how these dimensions relate to each other and to educationally important student and teacher outcomes.…

García-González, Luis; Sevil-Serrano, Javier; Abós, Angel; Aelterman, Nathalie; Haerens, Leen – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2019
Background: A distinction is made in Achievement Goal Theory (AGT) between task-oriented (i.e. effort, intra-individual progress, and self-comparison) and ego-oriented (i.e. inter-individual progress and normative comparison) climates. Combining insights from AGT and Self-Determination Theory (SDT), studies in the PE context have shown that a…

De Meyer, Jotie; Tallir, Isabel B.; Soenens, Bart; Vansteenkiste, Maarten; Aelterman, Nathalie; Van den Berghe, Lynn; Speleers, Lise; Haerens, Leen – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2014
Self-determination theory (SDT) has served as a theoretical framework for considerable research on teaching behavior and student motivation. The majority of studies have focused on need-supportive teaching behavior at the expense of need-thwarting teaching behavior (i.e., the "dark side" of teaching). The goal of the present study was to…
