"The article reports on the results of empirical research, aiming to analyse the relationship between two constructs - aspiration to study and prerequisites for the study - both of which are subjectively assessed by secondary school students themselves. Aspiration to study (possibly also achievement-aspiration) expresses the expected level of performance or positions an individual wants to achieve. Prerequisites for the study then indicate whether an individual has the talent, previous education, will or sufficient motivation to achieve a particular goal or position. In the educational reality, it can be assumed that all four combinations of both constructs can occur, with the worst being the student's distrust of their prerequisites for the study combined with zero effort to be a good student. A questionnaire survey of a group of 907 secondary technical school students in one region of the Czech Republic provides data for categorising students into one of four combination groups and at the same time determining whether the number of students in categories varies with the year of study or field of study. It is not known whether research-based categorisation has previously been performed on these learning success constructs." |
