Multiple-Goal Approach Among Indonesian University Students

A total of 1006 students from three public and two private universities in Indonesia participated in the study of multiple goals profiling in the Indonesian context. Four multiple-goal clusters, with learning, performance approach, performance avoidance, and work avoidance goals as clustering variables, were educed. Learning goals correlated positively with both performance approach and performance avoidance clusters, and negatively to work avoidance goals. Performance goals correlated positively with both performance avoidance and work avoidance goals. Learning, performance approach and performance avoidance goals correlated positively with self-efficacy. These clusters were further examined in relations to attributions, self-efficacy, theories of intelligence, religiosity, racial/ethnic identity, and academic performance.
