Entwicklung und Validierung der Skalen zur motivationalen Regulation beim Lernen im Studium (SMR-LS)

Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1026/0012-1924/a000201

Zusammenfassung. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden Skalen zur motivationalen Regulation beim Lernen im Studium (SMR-LS) vorgestellt, welche 4 Regulationsstile (intrinsisch, identifiziert, introjiziert, external) im Sinne der Selbstbestimmungstheorie der Motivation nach Deci und Ryan (1985) messen. In Studie 1 wurden die Faktorenstruktur der Items untersucht und erste Hinweise auf die valide Interpretierbarkeit der 4 Skalenwerte gewonnen. In Studie 2 konnte die Faktorenstruktur kreuzvalidiert werden. Es konnte gezeigt werden, dass die postulierte Faktorenstruktur gut begründet ist und die SMR-LS akzeptable interne Konsistenzen aufweisen (α ≥ .73). Darüber hinaus konnte die Annahme von Messinvarianz der Regulationsstile für die Faktoren Studienfach, Geschlecht und Land untermauert werden. Die Korrelationen der SMR-LS mit Lebenszufriedenheit, positivem und negativem Affekt, Prokrastination, wahrgenommener Autonomieunterstützung und Leistung waren theoriekonform und liefern weitere Hinweise auf eine valide Interpretierbarkeit der Skalenwerte der SMR-LS in der Erforschung von Bedingungsfaktoren und von Folgen motivationaler Regulation.


Development and Validation of Scales for the Measurement of Motivational Regulation for Learning in University Students (SMR-LS)

Abstract. This research presents scales assessing motivational regulation for learning in university students (SMR-LS), which are intended to measure 4 types of regulation (intrinsic, identified, introjected, external) according to Deci and Ryan’s Self-Determination Theory (SDT, 1985). In Study 1, we investigated the factor structure and gained initial indications regarding the valid interpretation of the 4 test scores. In Study 2, the four-factor structure was cross-validated. We found that the assumed factor structure was well supported and that all scales measuring the motivational regulation for learning in university students yielded reasonable internal consistencies (α ≥ .73). Moreover, measurement invariance was supported for discipline, gender, and country. Correlations of the SMR-LS with satisfaction with life, positive and negative affect, procrastination, perceived autonomy support, and achievement were all in line with SDT and, thus, provide further indications for the valid interpretability of the SMR-LS scores in research concerning antecedents and consequences of motivational regulation.
