| Abstract: |
Purpose: This study aims to examine differences in academic motivation among students in secondary economic education, focusing on gender differences, the relationship between motivation and academic performance, and the most prevalent types of motivation.
Study design/methodology/approach: A quantitative research approach was used, employing an adapted version of the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS-HS 20). Data were collected through an online questionnaire, and statistical methods such as t-tests, Pearson correlation, and one-way ANOVA were applied to test the hypotheses.
Findings: The study found that male students exhibit significantly higher intrinsic motivation and interest in economics than female students. Additionally, a positive correlation exists between interest in economics and academic motivation. However, no statistically significant differences in motivation were found based on academic performance.
Originality/value: This study contributes to the understanding of academic motivation in secondary economic education. The findings provide valuable insights for educators to develop strategies that foster both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation among students.
