Hypothesizes
that organizational conditions in classrooms affect aspects of student
motivation, i.e., students' academic self-concepts, their perceptions
of their peers, and their perceptions of school. Research findings
in studies of elementary students confirmed the hypothesis that
classrooms that narrowly define academic ability increase the amount
of stratification within them. (CB)
