Abstract

The study explored students’ aspiration, attribution, and motivational goals based on one ethnic group, Minangkabau. A total of 136 high school students from Minang ethnicity participated for the study. Students’ aspiration had three dimensions subscales: ambition, enjoyment of school life, and importance of school to the future. Attribution had three dimensions in the study: locus of control-personal control, stability, and external control. Students’ motivational goals had three dimensions: learning goals, performance approach goals and performance avoidance goals. The analyses show that importance of school aspiration and external control attribution predicted students’ learning goal. The present study gives an important view on how ethnicity should be considered in the study of students’ aspiration, attribution, and motivational goals, especially when one studies such variables in a multiethnic society.

Abstract

The present study explored the relationship between collective self-esteem and cultural orientation. It was hypothesized that one’s collective self-esteem or one’s judgment of being a member of one’s ethnic group would predict their cultural orientation. Collective self-esteem or one’s judgment of one being a member of one’s ethnic group had 4 dimensions: private, public, membership and importance; cultural orientation also had 4 dimensions: horizontal individualism, horizontal collectivism, vertical individualism, and vertical collectivism. One-hundred and fifty-nine students participated in the present study. Public collective self-esteem positively predicted horizontal individualism (β = .217) and vertical individualism (β = .224); private collective self-esteem positively predicted vertical collectivism, (β = .273) and negatively predicted vertical individualism (β = -.234). Cultural factors, particular to the Indonesian context, need to be taken into account in regard to interpreting the collected data.
