As part of a long-term project aimed at designing classroom interventions to motivate language learners, we have searched for a motivation model that could serve as a theoretical basis for the methodological applications. We have found that none of the existing models we considered were entirely adequate for our purpose for three reasons: (1) they did not provide a sufficiently comprehensive and detailed summary of all the relevant motivational influences on classroom behaviour; (2) they tended to focus on how and why people choose certain courses of action, while ignoring or playing down the importance of motivational sources of executing goal-directed behaviour; and (3) they did not do justice to the fact that motivation is not static but dynamically evolving and changing in time, making it necessary for motivation constructs to contain a featured temporal axis. Consequently, partly inspired by Heckhausen and Kuhl's 'Action Control Theory', we have developed a new 'Process Model of L2 Motivation', which is intended both to account for the dynamics of motivational change in time and to synthesise many of the most important motivational conceptualisations to date. In this paper we describe the main components of this model, also listing a number of its limitations which need to be resolved in future research.

Les étudiants qui réussissent sont motivés. Affirmer cela ne permet pas de comprendre ce qui insuffle de la motivation chez les étudiants. Quelle est la perception des jeunes étudiants à propos des facteurs précipitants à la démotivation ou de persistance à la motivation? Le niveau secondaire dans notre système scolaire québécois a pour mission institutionnelle la formation scolaire des jeunes pour la continuation de leurs études à des niveaux supérieurs ou d'offrir aux jeunes une formation professionnelle en vue de l'intégration au marché du travail. Plusieurs manifestations de problèmes tels le désintérêt, le taux d'échecs ainsi que le décrochage scolaire viennent compromettre son mandat. L'étudiant en deuxième secondaire est un individu en voie d'autonomie, porteur de la culture transmise par sa famille. Le présent travail est une étude exploratoire pour faire ressortir les facteurs pouvant interférer positivement ou négativement dans la motivation scolaire. Nous considérerons la motivation scolaire comme un objet d'étude psycho-socioscolaire. Pour ce faire, nous brosserons un bref aperçu de la problématique selon des approches psychologiques, psychopédagogiques et sociologiques. Par la suite, nous cernerons l'objet de recherche. Nous avons cherché à mieux comprendre la dynamique interrelationnelle entre la motivation scolaire d'une part et la famille, l'école et le carrefour école-famille d'autre part.

From birth, infants preferentially attend to human motion, which allows them to learn to interpret other peoples’ facial expressions and mental states. Evidence from adults shows that selectivity of the amygdala and the posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS) to biological motion correlates with social network size. Social motivation—one’s desire to orient to the social world, to seek and find reward in social interaction, and to maintain social relationships—may also contribute to neural specialization for biological motion and to social network characteristics. The current study aimed to determine whether neural selectivity for biological motion relates to social network characteristics, and to gain preliminary evidence as to whether social motivation plays a role in this relation. Findings suggest that neural selectivity for biological motion in the pSTS is positively related to social network size in middle childhood and that this relation is moderated by social motivation.

Dans notre recherche-intervention, nous nous sommes questionnée sur les façons d’instaurer motivation et culture de l’écrit dans la classe de français, chez les élèves du présecondaire à la cinquième secondaire, inscrits à la Formation Générale aux Adultes (FGA) au Centre Marchand de la Commission scolaire de la Rivière-du-Nord, à travers un processus créateur authentique et signifiant qui modifie les rapports parfois difficiles entre les élèves et l’écrit. Tout en tenant compte des caractéristiques des élèves concernés, nous avons abordé, entre autres, la créativité, le rapport entre soi, l’autre et le monde grâce à l’écriture libre, les interactions entre la lecture, l’écriture et l’oral, la motivation, le savoir-écrire en tant que compétence, le plaisir du texte et la démocratisation de l’écrit. Proposant une vision renouvelée de l’écriture, nous avons inclus dans nos classes des activités qui rompaient avec l’enseignement traditionnel du français (les ateliers d’écriture) et des outils qui favorisaient la continuité des tâches et l’autoévaluation (le portfolio de présentation, le recueil et la bande-annonce). Ces tâches nous ont permis d’instaurer une culture de l’écrit et d’agir sur la motivation des élèves. Nous en sommes arrivée à produire une analyse critique des modes d’intervention à privilégier pour que le processus créateur occupe la place qui lui revient dans la classe de français et pour que l’engagement des élèves, dans l’acte d’écrire, devienne plus signifiant et plus authentique, donc, conséquemment, plus motivant. Bref, conformément à l’esprit du renouveau pédagogique qui a fait son entrée au secondaire en 2005, nous souhaitons que notre recherche aide les enseignants de français à réévaluer l’importance du processus créateur, lequel fait partie intégrante de l’acte d’écrire, acte qui, lui-même, s’inscrit dans une continuité et une évolution encore peu mesurées.

In modern society, blood donor motivation and recruitment is a fundamental part of health care delivery. Well defined and documented programmes exist throughout the world but new ideas are always welcome. The situation in the Sudan is different and much remains to be done by way of comparison with elsewhere. This thesis outlines the objectives of a study, how it was supported, sponsored and achieved. It describes briefly the geography of the Sudan, the source of Sudanese economy, climate, culture and historical backgrounds. The problems of existing services in the Sudan are reviewed and a brief account of the demographic characteristics of the Sudanese population is given. Two surveys done in West of Scotland and in the Sudan are described in detail. This work discloses and compares the positive motives that enhances giving of blood and the negative motives that hinders its donation. The comparison is between an Eastern Society with a voluntary motivation not fully activated because of lack of understanding and awareness of the need to give blood voluntarily for strangers and Western Society with a well established voluntary system of donation. An addition to this research was the investigation into the immunity to tetanus and hepatitis in the Sudanese population. An estimate of the percentage of individuals with detectable levels of hepatitis A and B antibodies and tetanus antibodies is included since there is a need to establish a plasmapheresis programme as part of a good Blood Transfusion Service for the procurement of specific immunoglobulin's. This work has revealed major differences between the West of Scotland and the Sudan and suggestions are made for their resolution. The main conclusion and comparison are summarised in Chapter 7. It is hoped that many of the suggestions in this thesis can be introduced in the Sudan at an early date.

La réussite scolaire est affaire de capacité, mais aussi de motivation. Viau (2009) définit la motivation comme: un état dynamique qui a ses origines dans les perceptions qu’une étudiante ou un étudiant a de lui-même et de son environnement et qui l’incite à choisir une activité, à s’y engager et à persévérer dans son accomplissement afin d’atteindre un but. La motivation, c’est ce moteur qui nous fait avancer pour atteindre un idéal. Tout enseignante ou enseignant doit favoriser la motivation des étudiantes et des étudiants et mettre en place des conditions nécessaires pour leur permettre de trouver eux-mêmes le sens qu’ils souhaitent donner à leur démarche. En effet, si les étudiantes et les étudiants choisissent leur programme d’étude et parfois certains cours, il en revient à l’enseignante et à l’enseignant de contribuer à susciter l’intérêt pour le cours, d’aider la clientèle étudiante à percevoir son utilité et surtout à se réaliser dans ses apprentissages. Si l’enseignante ou l’enseignant n’a pas le choix sur le contenu du cours, il a cependant le choix des méthodes pédagogiques à utiliser. Certaines méthodes pédagogiques vont susciter un dynamisme qui caractérise les interactions entre les étudiantes et les étudiants, et entre ces derniers et l’enseignante ou l’enseignant. Ce dynamisme contribue à motiver la clientèle étudiante. Dans cet essai, la chercheure s’est intéressée sur l’effet des stratégies d’enseignement sur les étudiantes et étudiants en Soins infirmiers. Le premier chapitre aborde l’APC et le vent de changement suscité par cette approche sur les méthodes pédagogiques, mais aussi sur le rôle des enseignantes et des enseignants. On y aborde en conséquence la problématique ainsi que les raisons qui ont motivé la chercheure à vouloir conduire cette étude. Le deuxième chapitre est le cadre de référence de cette étude. Les méthodes pédagogiques et la motivation scolaire sont au coeur de ce cadre conceptuel. On y retrouve entre autres la classification, la définition et la description de huit méthodes pédagogiques, soit les plus populaires selon Chamberland, Lavoie et Marquis (1995). Par la suite, la motivation scolaire est abordée en discutant entre autres des facteurs liés à la classe, des trois déterminants, les perceptions attributionnelles, la perception de sa compétence, la perception de l’importance de la tâche ainsi que deux indicateurs de la motivation scolaire: l’engagement cognitif et la participation. Barbeau (1994) a élaboré un modèle de la motivation qui regroupe cinq grandes variables de la motivation dans un ensemble dynamique. Ce modèle est présenté dans ce chapitre. Le troisième chapitre élabore la méthodologie utilisée pour la réalisation de cette étude. L’approche méthodologique de type qualitatif est présentée de même que le paradigme interprétatif. L’approche méthodologique, les participantes et les participants à la recherche, le déroulement de la recherche et les instruments de collecte de données sont expliqués. Cette étude a fait appel à trois outils de collectes de données soit un entretien semi-dirigé avec les enseignantes et les enseignants, l’observation en classe et le questionnaire passé aux étudiantes et aux étudiants. Le quatrième chapitre comprend l’interprétation des résultats obtenus. Les résultats sont présentés à partir des données recueillies par les différents instruments de collecte. Ces derniers font ressortir que les étudiantes et les étudiants semblent plus motivés si les méthodes pédagogiques utilisées sont plus actives. La conclusion de cette recherche présente pour sa part un résumé de l’étude, les retombées de la recherche et différentes avenues qui pourraient être développées.

Efforts to improve the efficiency and responsiveness of public services by harnessing the self-interest of professionals in state agencies have been widely debated in the recent literature on welfare state reform. In the context of social services, one way in which British policy-makers have sought to effect such changes has been through the "new community care" of the 1990 NHS and Community Care Act. Key to this is the concept of care management, in which the identification of needs and the provision of services are separated, purportedly with a view to improving advocacy, choice and quality for service users. This paper uses data from a wide-ranging qualitative study of access to social care for older people to examine the success of the policy in these terms, with specific reference to its attempts to harness the rational self-interest of professionals. While care management removes one potential conflict of interests by separating commissioning and provision, the responsibility of social care professionals to comply with organizational priorities conflicts with their role of advocacy for their clients, a tension rendered all the more problematic by the perceived inadequacy of funding. Moreover, the bureaucracy of the care management process itself further negates the approach's supposedly client-centred ethos. The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.com

In this study, relations among students’ perceptions of instrumental help/support from their teachers and their reading and math ability beliefs, subjective task values, and academic grades, were explored from elementary through high school. These relations were examined in an overall sample of 1,062 students from the Childhood and Beyond (CAB) study dataset, a cohort-sequential study that followed students from elementary to high school and beyond. Multi-group structural equation model (SEM) analyses were used to explore these relations in adjacent grade pairs (e.g., second grade to third grade) in elementary school and from middle school through high school separately for males and females. In addition, multi-group latent growth curve (LGC) analyses were used to explore the associations among change in the variables of interest from middle school through high school separately for males and females. The results showed that students’ perceptions of instrumental help from teachers significantly positively predicted: (a) students’ math ability beliefs and reading and math task values in elementary school within the same grade for both girls and boys, and (b) students’ reading and math ability beliefs, reading and math task values, and GPA in middle and high school within the same grade for both girls and boys. Overall, students’ perceptions of instrumental help from teachers more consistently predicted ability beliefs and task values in the academic domain of math than in the academic domain of reading. Although there were some statistically significant differences in the models for girls and boys, the direction and strength of the relations in the models were generally similar for both girls and boys. The implications for these findings and suggestions for future research are discussed.

This study examines the role of servant leadership in absorptive capacity. Data from manufacturing and service sector organizations found that: a) there was moderation of servant leadership influence on knowledge identification through POS by high need for cognition, b) there was moderation of servant leadership influence on knowledge application through POS by low time pressure, and c) POS mediated relationship between servant leadership and knowledge dissemination. The findings illustrate and support the importance of a comprehensive model integrating servant leadership, POS, and epistemic motivation in determining absorptive capacity.

Mental stress is known to disrupt the execution of motor performance and can lead to decrements in the quality of performance, however, individuals have shown significant differences regarding how fast and well they can perform a skilled task according to how well they can manage stress and emotion. The purpose of this study was to advance our understanding of how the brain modulates emotional reactivity under different motivational states to achieve differential performance in a target shooting task that requires precision visuomotor coordination. In order to study the interactions in emotion regulatory brain areas (i.e. the ventral striatum, amygdala, prefrontal cortex) and the autonomic nervous system, reward and punishment interventions were employed and the resulting behavioral and physiological responses contrasted to observe the changes in shooting performance (i.e. shooting accuracy and stability of aim) and neuro-cognitive processes (i.e. cognitive load and reserve) during the shooting task. Thirty-five participants, aged 18 to 38 years, from the Reserve Officers’ Training Corp (ROTC) at the University of Maryland were recruited to take 30 shots at a bullseye target in three different experimental conditions. In the reward condition, $1 was added to their total balance for every 10-point shot. In the punishment condition, $1 was deducted from their total balance if they did not hit the 10-point area. In the neutral condition, no money was added or deducted from their total balance. When in the reward condition, which was reportedly most enjoyable and least stressful of the conditions, heart rate variability was found to be positively related to shooting scores, inversely related to variability in shooting performance and positively related to alpha power (i.e. less activation) in the left temporal region. In the punishment (and most stressful) condition, an increase in sympathetic response (i.e. increased LF/HF ratio) was positively related to jerking movements as well as variability of placement (on the target) in the shots taken. This, coupled with error monitoring activity in the anterior cingulate cortex, suggests evaluation of self-efficacy might be driving arousal regulation, thus affecting shooting performance. Better performers showed variable, increasing high-alpha power in the temporal region during the aiming period towards taking the shot which could indicate an adaptive strategy of engagement. They also showed lower coherence during hit shots than missed shots which was coupled with reduced jerking movements and better precision and accuracy. Frontal asymmetry measures revealed possible influence of the prefrontal lobe in driving this effect in reward and neutral conditions. The possible interactions, reasons behind these findings and implications are discussed.

Los turistas urbanos se caracterizan por ser uno de los segmentos de mayor crecimiento en los mercados turísticos actuales. Monterrey (México), uno de los principales destinos urbanos del país, ha apostado en la actualidad por mejorar su competitividad. Esta investigación se propuso encontrar evidencia acerca de la relación causal de la motivación de viaje sobre la imagen percibida del destino, dos variables importantes por su influencia en la satisfacción de los visitantes. Una revisión de la literatura permitió proponer constructos teóricos integrados en un instrumento para la recogida de datos vía encuesta a una muestra representativa. Por medio del método de regresión y ecuaciones estructurales por mínimos cuadrados parciales (PLS), se identificaron los componentes principales de ambas variables y se obtuvo un modelo explicativo de la imagen percibida del destino en función de la motivación de viaje. Finalmente, se emiten recomendaciones para la gestión del destino urbano en función de los resultados obtenidos. ABSTRACT: Abstract Urban tourists are recognized as one of the fastest growing segments in today’s tourism markets. Monterrey, Mexico, one of the main urban destinations in the country aims at improving its competitiveness. This research work had the purpose of finding evidence on the causal relationship between travel motivation and destination image, two important variables because of their influence on visitors’ satisfaction. A literature review enabled the proposal of a research instrument with theoretically based constructs to gather data through survey from a representative sample. Using regression and structural equations modelling by partial least squares (pls) a set of main components of both variables were identified thus enabling the obtention of a explanatory model of destination image in terms of travel motivations. Finally based on the results some recommendations of tourism management are given.
