The Anatomy of Achievement Motivation focuses on the study of individual differences
in motivations, including the determinants of specific motives and methods of assessing
motive strength. The book first offers information on content analysis and evaluative
dispositions, as well as the theory of thematic apperception method, experimental
method, and sociocultural frames of references and their change over historical time.
The manuscript then highlights the important dimensions of experience and conflict.
The publication takes a look at the general structure of goals and performance and
valence and motive arousal, including psychic distance and discrepancy between a present
and a future state. The book then examines goal setting and level of aspiration, performance
period, and the origin and development of achievement motivation. The manuscript is
a dependable reference for psychologists and readers interested in the facets of achievement
motivation
