Motivation and Self-Regulation Across the Life-Span
ISBN: 9780521591768 / Angielski / Twarda / 472 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the past two decades, an approach to the study of motivation has emerged that focuses on specific cognitive and affective mediators of behavior, in contrast to more general traits or motives.

This book adds a developmental perspective to this process-oriented approach. Critical elements of motivational systems can be specified and their interrelations...
