This study tested how type of goals (i.e., performance and mastery goals) influence perceived control for goal achievement over time (i.e., after 12 months) while controlling for motivational persistence, gender, self-efficacy, initial perceived control, emotional involvement, and perceived difficulty. Goals and self-reported data from 1220 students were analyzed. Comparative test indicated that students describing a mastery goal display more motivational persistence and more perceived control for goal achievement, compared to those describing a performance goal. Type of goals directly and significantly predict perceived control of goal achievement at 12 months. Motivational persistence directly, positively, and significantly predicts perceived control of goal achievement at 12 months. In addition, motivational persistence positively and significantly mediates the relation between type of goals and perceived control of goal achievement at 12 months. Results support a partial mediation model.
本研究测试了目标类型（即成绩目标和掌握目标）如何随着时间推移（即12个月后）影响对目标达成的感知控制，同时控制动机持续性、性别、自我效能感、初始感知控制、情感投入和感知难度。对1220名学生的目标及自我报告数据进行了分析。比较测试表明，与描述成绩目标的学生相比，描述掌握目标的学生表现出更强的动机持续性以及对目标达成更强的感知控制。目标类型直接且显著地预测了12个月时对目标达成的感知控制。动机持续性直接、正向且显著地预测了12个月时对目标达成的感知控制。此外，动机持续性正向且显著地中介了目标类型与12个月时对目标达成的感知控制之间的关系。结果支持一个部分中介模型。
