Pre-service Teachers’ Perspectives: Motivation, Emotions, and Life in General

• Author(s) / Creator(s)

  • Tracy Durksen

• Dr. Lia Daniels (University of Alberta) and Professor Robert Klassen (The
  University of York, UK), and a research team of graduate students were interested in exploring
  motivation and emotions as experienced by university students. The purpose of this study was to collect
  quantitative data on three related constructs: motivation, emotions, and life goals. It is broadly grounded
  in Arnett’s (2010) Emerging Adulthood Theory (http://www.jeffreyarnett.com/index.htm), which
  suggests that adolescence is expanding well into the 20s and thus shaping motivation, emotions, and life
  goals in different ways.
