Abstract

The present study investigated the relationship between Academic Performance, Goal-orientations, Motivation, self-efficacy and Academic satisfaction. Seventy-four healthy secondary school students-athletes participated in the present research. The results showed correlations between the different variables analysed. Thus, we found a positive correlation between self-efficacy and qualifications, and task-goals with achievements-motive. However, the avoidance of negative judgments correlates negatively with task-goals and positively with inhibitor anxiety. Comparative analysis showed that were no differences according to gender, although significant differences were depending on the level of academic, mainly in ego-goals. Finally, another comparative analysis using the scores an independent variable, showed that students with higher grades presented more orientation to the goals-task and greater self-efficacy. The present study demonstrates a positive correlation between self-efficacy and ratings or score, task-goals, and achievements-motive. Thus, we can suggest an individualized study of each child where self-efficacy could be seen as a means of predicting new results.
