Student Motivation in Humanities: Its Impact on Academic Performance and Professional Development
Abstract
In the process of higher education, the system of students' life relations with reality is restructured and the leading motives of activity are transformed, which affects the results of their studies. In this context, exploring students’ academic performance becomes more important in view of the increased requirements for today’s university graduates. The specificity of humanitarian education directs students towards the need to constantly update their knowledge and obtain additional education in related disciplines and, therefore, depends on students' motivation for learning. The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of motivation types in humanities students on their academic performance and the level of professional training using the case study approach and correlation analysis. The obtained results demonstrate that motivation for achievement relates to success in learning and students’ focus on the educational process. Correlations are observed between 1) academic performance and achievement motivation; 2) academic performance and the quantitative indicators of motivation for success, with qualitative analysis revealing a correlation between higher academic performance and higher success motivation in most students; 3) the type of motivation for university education and academic performance
