"Mediating Effects of Writing Achievement Goals on Self-Efficacy and Affect in Secondary School", Almanya: EARLI, p. 117, 2019.Mediating Effects of Writing Achievement Goals on Self-Efficacy and Affect in Secondary School(2019) Akkoyunlu, Buket; Soylu Yılmaz, Meryem; 8539Achievement goal theory describes human as being goal directed.

Three hundred thirteen 7th and 8th grade students from a private school in Ankara, Turkey participated the study. The majority of participants were 7th graders (n = 177).

Data were collected with several scales including the Writing Achievement Goals Scale, Self-Efficacy for Writing Scale, and Liking Writing Scale. The theoretical model represents relationships among writing achievement goals, writing self-efficacy and affect using structural equation modeling including students’ responses to the study scales. Results from the analysis revealed that there is a good fit between a model depicting hypothesized relations among the constructs and the data. Overall, all of the achievement goals showed a direct relationship with writing self-efficacy. However, the strength and direction of this relationship differed in components of both achievement goals and self-efficacy. Contrary to performance approach goals, mastery goals and performance avoidance goals had a direct relationship to liking writing. Moreover, liking writing almost equally and positively impacted all components of self-efficacy for writing
