This brief self-report measure is designed to screen a student’s motivation for academic learning. The Learning Motivation Assessment provides a quick snapshot of the degree to which learning is driven by interest, performance concerns, or perceived external pressures.
It consists of 4 items and typically takes about 5 minutes to complete. Results are intended to support initial case formulation and guide follow-up assessment or intervention planning in educational or clinical contexts.
Interpretation of the Learning Motivation Assessment is generally aligned with self-determination theory concepts described by Edward L. Deci and Richard M. Ryan, with attention to intrinsic versus extrinsic motivation and the student’s perceived autonomy. Scores should be considered in light of developmental level, current academic demands, and corroborating information (e.g., caregiver/teacher report), and are not used as a standalone diagnostic indicator.
