Which of the following describes a mastery goal orientation ?
Answer: B
A mastery goal orientation means a focus on improving ones' skills and understanding of a task.
Learners with mastery (learning) goals want to understand and become more competent. They judge success against their own progress, persist after setbacks and see mistakes as part of learning.
Competing with others describes a performance-approach goal, working for grades or rewards is extrinsic motivation, and avoiding failure for fear of humiliation is a performance-avoidance goal.
