Résumé
L’étude examine les possibilités prédictives du modèle de Dweck au sujet de relations entre la conception de l’intelligence et le type de buts d’apprentissage. La mesure traditionnelle de la conception de l’intelligence s’appuie sur des items qui renvoient à la conception statique, par opposition à une conception dynamique. Toutefois, le caractère mutuellement exclusif des deux conceptions reste à démontrer. Un questionnaire a été administré à 487 étudiants universitaires. Les résultats montrent que les deux conceptions de l’intelligence sont négativement reliées, mais que cette relation est modérée. En outre, ils ne fournissent qu’un appui partiel aux relations postulées par le modèle de Dweck. La discussion propose des explications portant sur la coexistence de ces deux types de conception de l’intelligence.
Abstract
The study examines the predictive possibilities of the model of Dweck regarding the relationships between the conception of intelligence and the type of learning goals. The traditional measurement of the concept of intelligence rests on items which return to a static conception, in opposition to a dynamic conception. However, the mutually exclusive character of those two conceptions remains to be shown. A survey was made with 487 university students. The results show that the two conceptions of intelligence are negatively connected, but that this relationship is moderate. Moreover, they provide only a partial support to the relationships postulated by the model of Dweck. The discussion suggests some explanations concerning the coexistence of these two types of conceptions of intelligence.
Resumen
El estudio considera las posibilidades predictivas del modelo de Dweck respecto a relaciones entre la concepción de la inteligencia y el tipo de metas de aprendizaje. La medida tradicional de la concepción de la inteligencia se fundamenta en elementos que remiten a la concepción estática, en contraste con una concepción dinámica. Sin embargo, el carácter mutuamente exclusivo de las dos concepciones queda por demostrar. Un cuestionario ha sido aplicado a 487 estudiantes universitarios. Los resultados demuestran que las dos concepciones de la inteligencia están relacionadas de forma negativa, pero que esta relación es moderada. Además, no proporcionan más que una ayuda parcial a las relaciones postuladas en el modelo de Dweck. La discusión sugiera explicaciones acerca de la coexistencia de estos dos tipos de concepción de la inteligencia.
Zusammenfassung
Die Studie untersucht die vorausgesagten Möglichkeiten des Modells von Dweck bezüglich der Beziehungen zwischen der Intelligenzkonzeption und der Art von den Lehrzielen. Die traditionelle Maßnahme der Intelligenzkonzeption stützt sich auf Items. Diese verweisen auf die statische Konzeption im Gegensatz zu einer dynamischen Konzeption. Allerdings bleibt der exklusiv wechselseitige Charakter der zwei Konzeptionen zu beweisen. Ein Fragebogen wurde an 487 Hochschulstudenten gestellt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die zwei Intelligenzkonzeptionen zwar negativ zueinander in Beziehung setzen, aber dass dieses Verhältnis gemäßigt ist. Sie liefern außerdem nur eine partielle Unterstützung der durch das Modell von Dweck postulierten Beziehungen. Die Diskussion schlägt Erklärungen bezüglich der Koexistenz dieser zwei Arten der Intelligenzkonzeption vor.
