Abstract

This study examined students’ profiles regarding motivation orientations and tested whether profile groups differed on school-burnout. The study was performed on students from Maragheh. 370 students, as a sample group were selected by using multi-stage clustering method. The instruments, employed in the study were the Academic Motivation Scale and School-Burnout Inventory. Hierarchical cluster analysis method, MANOVA and post hoc tests were used to determine the optimal cluster structure of students. The results revealed that 4 profiles: (a) students with low level of motivation, (b) students with mastery- avoidance and approach- performance orientation, (c) students with multiple-goal orientation, and (d) students with mastery-performance approach orientation. In addition, it was found that students in the study with multiple-goal orientation and mastery-performance approach reported the least degree of school-burnout. Students with multiple-goal orientation have various goals, expectancies and values that motivate them for self-efficacy and high-interest in school activity.
