Norfolk State University Factors Affecting Student Motivation Discussion

I’m working on a psychology discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

 Research indicates many motivational factors (psychological, social, and cultural) impact student motivation and student achievement, including parental influence and participation, peer pressure, self-efficacy expectations, effort, perception of one’s talents, learning strategies, teaching style, and school environment. Which variables are the most important in influencing student motivation?How does the age of the student relate to these motivational factors? That is, do the motivational factors vary for elementary students, high school students, and college students? Why or why not?
