Introduction. The debate over the education of immigrant pupils relative to native Spanish students is currently a hot topic, but very little research has been undertaken in this area in Spain. The objective of this study was to detect certain possible differences in motivation and strategies between immigrant and Spanish pupils, and also between boys and girls.Method. A sample of 436 secondary school pupils was used. The Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) was used as a basis, but was adapted in the shape of the elimination of the goal sub-scales (intrinsic and extrinsic), which were replaced by the Goal Orientation Scale of Skaalvik. Various Student’s t-tests were carried out to determine whether or not there were statistically significant differences between the independent samples studied, concretely in respect of nationality of origin and of gender. In interpreting results, account was also taken of the effect of the size of sample. Moreover, MANOVA analyses were also used to check whether there were any interactions between the nationality of origin and gender in respect of the variables studied.Results. In general, it was noteworthy that the main differences found were linked to the gender of pupils, much more than their nationality of origin. Hence, statistically significant differences were found in a total of twelve variables by gender and only three by nationality. Moreover, differences encountered lay mostly in the area of learning strategies rather than in academic motivation and self-motivation.Discussion and conclusion. As a general conclusion for this study, it may be emphasized that the main differences recorded were in respect of gender, much more than with regard to the nationality of origin. More specific studies would be desirable so as to develop further this line of investigation, which is novel in a Spanish context.

This study aims to determine the degree of reliability and validity of Multidimensional Measures of Goal Orientation Scale by Zweig and Webster (2004) for measuring the goal orientation of religious educators in private religious school. Goal orientation construct has received much attention from researchers as to understand how one build, acquire or demonstrate proficiency in learning and performance. There are three (3) factors used to measure the Orientation Objectives, namely (1) Performance Approach Goal Orientation; (2) Performance-Avoidance Goal Orientation; and (3) Learning Goal Orientation. 171 Islamic education teachers from private religious schools in Negeri Sembilan were involved in the study. 21 items from original instruments were translated into Malay language and translated back to English language using the back-translation method. The reliability of the instrument was determined by using the internal consistency of Cronbach Alpha's method and the results showed the alpha values were between .74 and .91. The overall reliability coefficient for the total final items was .84. This instrument has met the psychometric characteristics of a good instrument and can be utilized in different studies context.

The present study aimed at exploring the effectiveness of a training program based on goal orientations. A sample of 69 female students at Tala’ Al-Ali School in Jordan was chosen and distributed randomly into the experimental and control groups. To achieve the objectives of this study, the researchers had constructed training program to modify students’ types of goal orientation. Also, the researchers developed the goal orientation scale and obtained good validity and reliability indicators. The results showed that there was a significant statistical difference at the level of α ≤ .05 in the postscores of the goal orientation domains in favor of the experimental group. In addition, there was no statistical difference at the level of α ≤ .05 between the posttest and delayed scores in the experimental group indicating the continuity of the effect of the training program on the experimental group.

Achievement goal orientation is one of the important psychological variables in the realm of education, knowing the orientation of students in learning will provide information on the form of behavior they do in academic activities at school. We tested the psychometric properties of the achievement goal orientation tool from Elliot & McGregor, (2001). Participants in this study were 431 students in Indonesia. The results of the study stated that the achievement goal orientation measuring instrument had good reliability and all items met the validity coefficient value of the item correlation test. The research implications are discussed in the discussion.
