Perceived irrelevance and achievement goals: Two mindset variables within attitudinal experiences of life science majors in introductory physics

This paper is a follow-up to a previous study, in which students (predominately life science majors) were found to self-express achievement goals with regard to a prelab problem-solving exercise in an algebra-based introductory physics course. In this paper, the same sampled population was also aske...
