Predicting Achievement Motivation based on the Classroom Psychosocial Climate and Quality of School Life in Female High School Students

This study aimed to predict the motivation for academic achievement in female second-year high school students in Bandar Abbas, Iran, based on the psycho-social climate of the class and the quality of school life. Using a descriptive and correlational research design, data were collected from 189 female students using the Hermans Achievement Motivation Questionnaire, the Psychosocial Class Climate Questionnaire, and the Quality of School Life Questionnaire. Results showed that home, school, and classroom environments play a significant role in motivating progress and hard work towards achieving goals. Enhancing the quality of these environments can improve students’ motivation. The study also found that 20% of students’ achievement motivation can be explained by the class psychosocial climate and the quality of school life. The study concludes that improving the classroom and school environment can strengthen students’ desire to learn and achieve academic success. This research can inform effective interventions and policies to improve the quality of education and enhance students’ motivation for academic achievement.
