Effect of Teacher and Parent Autonomy Support on Academic Motivation: A Central Focus of Self-Determination Theory

The interplay of dominant factors that influence adolescents’ academic performance: Motivation type and pressure vs involvement

“…This situation, as many previous studies have shown, is common and possibly natural in large populations (Wijsman et al, 2019;Ryan and Deci, 2020). Practical research shows that a significant increase in the share of intrinsic motivation in a group can be achieved, and most researchers consider this issue through the prism of Self-Determination Theory (Banerjee and Halder, 2021;Famero, 2021). Researchers have also demonstrated in approach of Self Determination Theory that intrinsic motivation is directly related to academic achievement and inversely correlated with student dropout intentions (Jeno et al, 2018).…”

“…and social competence with peers is consistently related to academic success (Wentzel, 2017). There is also a negative impact of increased teacher control of student motivation, and this impact remains relevant regardless of gender or age (Banerjee and Halder, 2021). Motivation for science and academic achievement has been closely linked in the past 2 years to student 10.3389/feduc.2022.912744 autonomy and the ability of teachers and parents to maintain this autonomy (Filippello et al, 2020;Ryan and Deci, 2020).…”

“…It may seem hard to achieve this educational goal with adolescents, mostly because adolescence is considered to be the period when a downward trend in academic performance is most likely to occur (Liu et al, 2013;Wijsman et al, 2019). A number of researchers point to the importance of student autonomy and self-determination as the leading predictors of academic achievement and interest in scientific motivation (Banerjee and Halder, 2021;De Loof et al, 2021). The downward trend can be reversed with adequate support from parents and teachers (Filippello et al, 2020;Famero, 2021).…”

“…The issues of stress elimination, in particular, through increasing the adaptability of adolescents with the help of parents through need-supportive practices, are considered in some studies (Moe et al, 2020;Moè and Katz, 2020). Academic performance worsening is very often associated with a drop in motivation (Wijsman et al, 2019;Banerjee and Halder, 2021). The reasons for this may be (1) the prestige that the image of an unruly student has and which adolescents seek to maintain in the eyes of their peers, (2) the discrepancy between student interests and the knowledge offered by the school, and (3) the failure of the educational system to unlock students' potential (Wijsman et al, 2019).…”

Integration of ICT in Teaching and Learning, Teachers Motivation and Skills of Teaching Literature: A Structural Model Equation on Academic Performance

“…In addition, determining the factors that affect teacher motivation in teaching is a significant issue for students. This only confirms the great role of teachers in the future of a country, so it is appropriate to consider the motivations of teachers [22].…”
