Based on the expectancy-value perspective on identity and identity formation, this paper explores the relationship between math identity (MI) and the dimensions of motivation (i.e. intrinsic value, attainment value, utility value and perceived competence) and math achievement in primary school. An additional aim of our research was to explore…

Triinu Kilp-Kabel; Kaja Mädamürk – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2025
The current study was conducted to investigate the relationship between math anxiety and math achievement, highlighting differences in motivation based on age, and the mediating effects of task persistence as well as aspects of the expectancy-value theory. The students in the study (grade five N = 335, grade eight N = 251) were from Estonian…

Jelena Radišic; Nils Buchholtz; Kajsa Yang-Hansen; Xin Liu; Hege Kaarstein – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Mathematics teachers' beliefs are central to mathematics teaching and student learning. Because different aspects of motivation and affect--particularly enjoyment--primarily develop within the classroom context, examining how different teachers' beliefs may affect student outcomes in mathematics is imperative. The current study examines teachers'…

Tanvir, Hasan; Chounta, Irene-Angelica – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2021
The aim of this work is to provide data-driven insights regarding the factors behind dropouts in Higher Education and their impact over time. To this end, we analyzed students' data collected by a Higher Education Institute over the last 11 years and we explored how socio-economic and academic changes may have impacted student dropouts and how…

Kalajas-Tilga, Hanna; Hein, Vello; Koka, Andre; Tilga, Henri; Raudsepp, Lennart; Hagger, Martin S. – European Physical Education Review, 2022
The aim of the current study was to test the long-term predictive validity of the trans-contextual model in accounting for variance in adolescents' out-of-school physical activity measured by self-report and accelerometer based-devices over a one-year period. Secondary school students (N = 265) aged 11 to 15 years completed a three-wave survey on…

Silm, Gerli; Must, Olev; Täht, Karin; Pedaste, Margus – Educational Research and Evaluation, 2020
Test-taking motivation (TTM) has been associated with test performance in low-stakes testing contexts. However, there have been few studies about TTM in high-stakes testing contexts, and these have contradictory results. Our aim was to explore the relationship between test-taking effort and test performance in a real-life high-stakes testing…

Timoštšuk, Inge; Näkk, Anne-Mai – Education 3-13, 2020
Estonian students' knowledge of science is, according to PISA (Program for International Student Assessment), good but their motivation to learn science is lower than expected. As primary teachers create a foundation for learning, it is important that they acknowledge and use teaching practices that support engagement. The aim of this study was to…

Luik, Piret; Lepp, Marina – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2021
Computer programming MOOCs attract people who have different motivations. Previous studies have hypothesized that the motivation declared before starting the course can be an important predictor of distinctive dropout rates. The aim of this study was to outline the main motivation clusters of participants in a computer programming MOOC, and to…

Uibu, Marko; Kalma, Maarja; Mägi, Katrin; Kull, Merike – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2022
Engaging key stakeholders, including students into the process of school-based physical activity (PA) intervention planning is considered important. The present study was part of the preparatory phase of the Estonian Schools in Motion pilot programme and aimed to examine students' perspective of PA opportunities in the classroom. Based on 17 focus…

Luik, Piret; Suviste, Reelika; Lepp, Marina; Palts, Tauno; Tõnisson, Eno; Säde, Merilin; Papli, Kaspar – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
Learners who enrol in massive open online courses (MOOCs) have different backgrounds and tend to have different motivations than learners in traditional courses. Based on value-expectancy theory, an instrument was developed to measure motivation for enrolling in a programming MOOC. A study with 1229 adult participants in Estonian-language…

Uus, Õnne; Mettis, Kadri; Väljataga, Terje – Cogent Education, 2022
Prior findings highlight school students' low motivation to study science, while 21st-century education aims to achieve their key competencies: scientific literacy and autonomous problem-solving to be prepared for smooth adaption to quickly changing circumstances. Real-life learning scenarios can meet these shortfalls to engage the learners by the…
