Achievement Goals Questionnaire

The Achievement Goals Questionnaire is a tool used to understand what motivates individuals in their learning and performance contexts. It assesses different types of goals people pursue, such as striving to master a skill (mastery goals) or wanting to outperform others (performance goals). By identifying these goals, the questionnaire helps reveal whether someone is driven by personal improvement, competition, or demonstrating competence. This insight can inform educators and coaches to better support motivation, engagement, and learning strategies tailored to each individual's motivational orientation.
