Thesis (Ph.D.)--Northwestern University, 2006.
Recent research in cultural psychology has begun to demonstrate cultural differences in the types of information that motivate goal pursuits (Heine, 2003). The aim of the current dissertation was to explore one psychological mechanism driving these effects. Specifically, six studies were conducted to examine whether concerns for task enjoyment and task performance influence goal-directed behavior. Study 1 demonstrates that cultural differences in task persistence and performance can be explained in terms of the relative independence or interdependence of self-construals. In extension, self-construals were shown to differentially encourage enjoyment and performance concerns, both in the lab (Study 2) and in the context of leisure activities (Study 3). Contrary to predictions, enjoyment and performance concerns were not subsequently associated with increases in task persistence and performance (Studies 4-6). Thus, the current work was unable to provide evidence regarding the role of motivational concerns in driving persistence and performance. However findings do emerge to suggest that concerns for task enjoyment and performance can be considered lay theories that reflect culturally- and socially-encouraged notions of what motivates goal-directed behavior. Discussion centers on potential implications and avenues for future research.
