Chow, Angela; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2011
This study examined what kinds of groups can be identified according to students' task-values across four subject domains (languages, math and science, social sciences, practical subjects) and the related gender differences using a person-centered approach. Latent class analysis was applied to classify 638 students (mean age = 15) into four…
