Résumé
Si plusieurs théories avancent que la perception de compétence tient un rôle central dans la motivation et le rendement scolaires, la direction de leurs relations n’est pas consensuelle. Cette étude longitudinale couvrant la transition primaire-secondaire examine cette question. Dès la 5e année du primaire et une fois l’an durant les 4 années suivantes, 830 élèves ont répondu à un questionnaire sur leur perception de compétence et leur motivation, alors que leurs enseignants ont rapporté leur rendement. Une fois la contribution du sexe et des habiletés mentales des élèves, et la scolarité des parents contrôlées, les résultats indiquent une association bidirectionnelle entre la perception de compétence et le rendement. La perception de compétence prédit systématiquement la motivation, mais pas l’inverse, et il existe aussi peu de liens entre la motivation et le rendement. La discussion met l’accent sur l’importance du développement d’une perception de compétence positive dans le fonctionnement scolaire.

Abstract
Although several theories suggest that the perception of competence plays a central role in motivation and academic performance, there is no consensus on the direction of their relationship. This longitudinal study covering the primary-secondary transition examines this question. From the 5th year of primary school and once a year during the following 4 years, 830 pupils answered a questionnaire on their perception of competence and their motivation. Their performance was reported by their teachers. Controlling for the effect of pupils’ gender and mental abilities and parental education, the results indicate a bidirectional association between perceived competence and performance. The perception of competence systematically predicts motivation, but not the reverse. There is little relationship between motivation and performance. The discussion emphasizes the importance of developing a positive perception of competence in school functioning.
