Some view goals as challenges that assist learning. Others see goals as demonstrations of one's competence. Still others view goals as threatening one's image if they are not achieved. This goal orientation instrument estimates your level on each of these three orientations: learning goal orientation, performance goal orientation, and avoidance goal orientation. Low 4-10 Moderate 11-21 High 22-28 28 Your score was 23. The range of possible scores is from 4 to 28. Learning Goal Orientation People with a learning goal orientation view striving for goals as the way to acquire new skills and knowledge. This orientation views ability as malleable - something that can be developed through effort and persistence (such as trying to achieve challenging goals). Effort is the means through which new competencies are developed. Low 4-10 Moderate 11-21 High 22-28 28 Your score was 18. The range of possible scores is from 4 to 28. Performance Goal Orientation People with a performance goal orientation view goals as means to demonstrate (rather than develop) their skills and knowledge. They view their ability as fixed, so goals test that ability rather than develop it. People with a performance goal orientation are particularly motivated to seek out goals that they can achieve rather than goals with a high probability of failure. Low 4-10 Moderate 11-21 High 22-28 Your score was 0. The range of possible scores is from 4 to 28. Avoidance Goal Orientation Avoidance goal orientation is similar to performance goal orientation in that people with this orientation view goals as means to demonstrate (rather than develop) their skills and knowledge. However, an avoidance goal orientation is apparent by the motivation to avoid goals that might produce a negative judgment by others. In other words, people with this orientation pay attention to goals that might cause them to fail, whereas people with a performance goal orientation are motivated to seek out goals that demonstrate their success. * Print Screen
