Sentence examples for goal specificity from inspiring English sources

They were provided with different goals according to an experimental 2 × 2 design with goal specificity (nonspecific goals versus specific goals) and goal type (problem solving goals versus learning goals) as factors.

Goal specificity is important because specific goals reduce ambiguity in thought and variability in performance".

No interaction effect of metacognitive support and goal specificity on learning outcome was observed.

For learning goals, however, we observed this goal specificity effect only on cognitive load but not on learning outcome.

Results indicate that the goal specificity affects the element interactivity of a task and cognitive load with both, problem solving goals or learning goals.

To contrast the effects of metacognitive support with possible effects of goal specificity, the experimental study followed a 2 × 2 design with a sample of N = 129 ninth grade students and with metacognitive support (yes vs. no) and learning goals (specific vs. nonspecific) as factors.

Goal Setting Theory identifies two specific attributes of goals – specificity and difficulty.

Example SOM activations illustrating the difference in goal-specificity of neurons depending on β are shown in Fig.  3.

The present work adds to previous models [ 4, 25, 30] by addressing the goal-specificity in parietal mirror neurons.

Whether or not this would actually affect goal-specificity of the neurons as defined here is less obvious though.

It is therefore possible that the goal-specificity is really determined by γ and that β is merely a good indicator.
