Motivation in transition: Development and roles of expectancy, task values, and costs in early college engineering. (2019, background): “…interventions for supporting motivation (Lazowski & Hulleman, 2016; Rosenzweig & Wigfield, 2016); this research provides evidence that even a brief exercise can boost motivation, particularly for those most at risk for low achievement (e.g., Harackiewicz et al., 2016; Hulleman et al., 2017).”
More useful or not so bad? Examining the effects of utility value and cost reduction interventions in college physics. (2020, methodology): “…results are important because they contribute to a small but growing body of studies suggesting that utility value interventions do not always affect students’ course grades and exam scores solely by promoting utility value (Harackiewicz et al., 2016; Hecht et al., 2019; Hulleman et al., 2017).”
Interest development, self-related information processing, and practice (2021, background): “…writing prompts to support student reflection on the utility of what they are learning (see discussion of utility value interventions such as this in Hulleman et al., 2017); lectures, labs, or in-class activities that include surprising or novel information, (e.g., Dohn, 2013; Nieswandt &…”
The Role of Situational Interest in Personalized Learning (2018, background): “Moreover, education researchers who investigate relevance refrain from including the term relevance in items posed to middle school students (e.g., Hulleman & Harackiewicz, 2009; Kosovich et al., 2015), and include it only with older samples (e.g., Hulleman et al., 2017).”
