ABSTRACT
The current study investigated the mediating role of self-determined motivation in the relationship between future life goals and academic engagement and burnout of 308 Chinese Medical University students. The path analysis results revealed that distinct future life goals (financial success, social status, and communal goals) corresponded to distinct levels of self-determined motivation. These motivational levels subsequently impacted both academic engagement and burnout. Financial goals predicted heightened burnout through a pathway of controlled motivation. Social status goals, while positively influencing academic engagement via increased autonomous motivation, also contributed to elevated burnout through controlled motivation. On the contrary, communal goals amplified academic engagement through augmented autonomous motivation while simultaneously reducing burnout by diminishing amotivation. These findings emphasize the significant role of students’ future life goals in understanding their current academic motivation and engagement.
