Abstract

Nowadays, more and more people are paying much attention to the students’ motivation since they have already discovered that motivation affects students’ academic performance greatly. Specifically, stronger motivation leads to better academic performance and vice versa. To find out several common factors that influence students’ motivation, we have researched some elements that will change students’ motivation both internally and externally: schools, families, interest, self-efficacy, and perfectionism. Schools and families are environments where students grow and learn things, so they all play an important role in helping students construct strong and proper motivation. Most of the students have to find what they are interested in before deciding their study path and future career; thus, it is their obligation to figure out what they are fond of and build their self-efficacy to gain more confidence and strengthen their self-efficacy motivation. Moreover, since perfectionism is quite common among students now, people should help students establish strong and stable motivation by meeting their perfectionism requirements. Based on our result, we can finally find out the factors that influence students’ motivation indeed and how we can help students reconstruct their motivation so that they can have better studying performances by teaching the educators how to use these factors and proper methods to build motivation.
