This research tests a hypothesized model of the relationships among several individual difierences and variables associated with the setting of goals. Participants uere randomly assigned lo a self-set goal condition. or to moderatel? or very-difficult assigned-goal on-ditions. By aggregating scores of performance. personal goals. ratings of self-efficacy. and goal commitment over multiple goal-setting and task-performance occasions, the oteral l relationships among these variables and need for achievement, self-esteem. and low \ ot control uere determined. Results provide strong suppon for Locke and Latham's (IYY0a. 1990b) model of the goal-per(brmance relation. but fail to support the hypothesized role of individual differences. The ...
