Abstract. The benefits of self-regulated learning have been confirmed. However, research is still pending on motivational self-regulation. We studied the use of attainment value and cost strategies in a study sample of 821 secondary education students. Our results showed that the students made considerable use of both strategies, that these strateg...
Este estudio tuvo como objetivo investigar las relaciones entre la facilidad con que los estudiantes de ciencias de secundaria detectan sus errores, su precisión en la autoevaluación y las variables motivacionales y cognitivas implicadas en el proceso de autorregulación. Tanto en la variable de detección de errores como la de autoevaluación se estu...
