The Junior Index of Motivation (JIM Scale) is an instrument designed for use as a measure of academic motivation by teachers and counselors working with secondary school students. Tests indicate that the motivation variable accounts for some of the disparity between ability and performance levels of underachievers and overachievers. To determine the long-range predictive value of the JIM Scale, a longitudinal study was conducted testing the hypothesis that the JIM Scale would successfully differentiate among college bound and noncollege bound junior high school students. Findings confirm this hypothesis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
