Achievement Goals and Their Correlates among American and Chinese Students in Physical Education: A Cross Cultural Analysis.
Xiang, Ping; Lee, Amelia M.; Solmon, Melinda A.
Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, v28 n6 p645-60 Nov 1997
Examined achievement goals and their correlates in physical education in 180 Chinese students and 121 Anglo-American students in grades 4, 5, and 6. The same two-dimensional factor structure of goal orientation (task and ego orientation) cut across the two cultural groups in physical education, but relationships seemed to vary as a function of cultural background.
