Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the causal relationship between Motivational variables and academic Performance in Science, mediated by conceptual Understanding in male and female students of the eighth grade. The sample was recruited from all of eighth grade students in Darab city, Iran. The research method was correlational. The data gathered through the three questionnaires: the modified version of Harter's (1980, 1981) scale, Attitude Survey Questionnaire, and the researcher-made conceptual Understanding of Science. In the descriptive section, the mean, standard deviation and correlation coefficient were used and in the inferential section, structural equation modeling was used. The results showed that all relationships between variables, except the extrinsic Motivation for conceptual Understanding were significant. Results also indicated that all indirect hypotheses, except the indirect relation of extrinsic Motivation to the academic Performance in Science mediated by conceptual Understanding were confirmed.
