Abstract
In our essay we thematize a problem of attributional tendencies for life goals achieving. We offer selected results of study implemented by vocational school's students (N = 128) in 2011.
We use Weiner's theory of attribution and motivation and De Charms's origin-pawn koncept. In our study we focus on attributional tendencies in terms of life goals.
Simultaneously we ask a question if students with internal controllable attribution (efort, diligence) differ from students with external uncontrollable attribution (coincidence, luck) in benefit, ascribed importance and learning subjective meaning (instrumentality) for achieving these life goals.
