Abid****  \nAbstract  \nThis study was aimed at finding relationship among students’ mathematics Self-concept, Socio Economic Status (SES) and Achievement Goal Orientations (AGOs) at secondary level in Punjab. The population of study included secondary school students in the Punjab province. The sample was selected through multi-stage random sampling technique. An adapted questionnaire was used to get responses about achievement goal orientation of students. Mathematics Self-concept scale by Marsh (1948) was used to know students’ academic selfconcept. \"Socio Economic\" Status was assessed through different demographic variables. Through SPSS, Pearson correlation coefficient was run to calculate correlation among students' self-concept in mathematics, SES, and their AGOs. Results showed significant correlation between students’ self concept in mathematics and their AGOs. Correlation between SES and AGOs of students was not significant. On the basis of findings, it was recommended that teachers should use instructional strategies which tend to improve students'mathematics \"self concept\" to make them mastery goal oriented.  \nKeywords: Self concept, socio economic status, achievement goal orientations  \n* Professor of Education, Institute of Education and Research, University of the Punjab, Lahore,  \nPakistan.

Its basic notion is related to the fact that an individuals’ style of fulfilling a deed is significantly affected by the goals he does possess (Ames, 1992; Dweck, 1986) . Many studies on AGOs and their related variables have been conducted during the last many years (Dinc, 2010) . AGO theory throws light on pupils’ two general patterns of goal orientations i.e., learning goal orientation, which also bears the name of mastery goal orientation (MGO), and performance goal orientation which also possesses two types namely performance-approach goal orientation (PAGO) and performance avoidance goal orientation (PAVGO) (Elliot & Harackiewicz, 1996). Mastery goal orientation has also been categorized into approach-avoidance dichotomy (Elliot, 1999; Elliot &McGregor, 2001; Pintrich, 2000a, Pintrich, 2000b). Pupils having MGO pay attention on achieving mastery on a task and are desirous of getting new skills. Contrary to this, students having MAVGO have a desire to get success through self-denial of the facts, having misunderstood information, or having a task completed inaccurately. Students having PAGO are concerned with presenting themselves as competent before others and want to have constructive feedback from others about their abilities. The students with PAVGO want to ignore critical opinions about their abilities and intentionally avoid doing hard deeds (Elliot & Harackiewicz, 1996) .  \nSeaton (2013) has also pointed out the lack of research in finding the association between AGOs and academic \"self-concept\" . Many studies have been conducted on exhibiting strong relationships between a number of motivational indicators and academic self-concept of students which seems to be systematically related to ratings of teachers about students’ involvement level and diligence in activities of classrooms (Skaalvik & Rankin, 1996; Skinner, Wellborn & Connell, 1990), students’ ratings of end","cbCaiodKtUZSvrl2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiodKtUZSvrl2","pdf",100694,13,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Achievement Goal Orientation (AGO) theory\n## Goal orientations and learning motivation\n## Self-concept, self-efficacy, and prior research","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To determine the relationship among students’ mathematics self-concept, Socio Economic Status (SES), and Achievement Goal Orientations (AGOs) at the secondary level in Punjab.\"},{\"question\":\"How were students selected for the study?\",\"answer\":\"The sample of secondary school students in Punjab was selected using multi-stage random sampling.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the results show about mathematics self-concept and AGOs?\",\"answer\":\"Mathematics self-concept and AGOs were significantly correlated, indicating a meaningful relationship between students’ academic self-perceptions and their goal orientations.\"}]","Secondary School Students' Socio Economic Status, Mathematics Self-concept and Achievement Goal Orientations - A Correlational Investigation | PDF",1792081999,33]
