Success-Striving and Failure-Avoidant Aspiration Patterns of Institutionalized Mental Retardates (open access)

Success-Striving and Failure-Avoidant Aspiration Patterns of Institutionalized Mental Retardates

The design of this experiment was developed to investigate the presence of success-striving and failure-avoidant motivational patterns in the level of aspiration behavior of retarded subjects. The primary objective of this study is to show that success-strivers are present in mentally retarded groups, even if in the minority.
