This study looked at the relationship of explanatory style and self-systems (including self-esteem and self-efficacy) and the motivation (expectations for success and task value) of students who were dissatisfied with their performance in a particular class One result is the confirmation that situated variables such as self-efficacy provide the strongest explanation of a student's motivation.
