The bachelor's thesis consists of scientific literature compilation and research design. At first, the theoretical part concerns motivation in educational process and the developmental periods the thesis is focussed on. Most attention is paid to concepts of perceived self-efficacy and attributions. The most important theories and terms related to both concepts are explained, followed by their development in childhood and connection to school work. In the empirical part, there are described ways of measurement are mentioned a this part devotes to relationship between self-efficacy and attribution, which is the topic of research design.

The influence of personification representation in learning materials on retention of learned knowledge

The theoretical section of the thesis describes the underlying theories of emotions, emphasizing the Cognitive-Affective Theory of Learning with Media. The respective subsections are dedicated to cognitive multimedia learning principles, emotional design and the Cognitive Load Theory. The experimental section describes a replication and an extension of the original study by Mayer and Estrella. In our experiment, we used an incomplete 2 x 3 between-subject design with independent factors being the use of personification in learning materials (three levels) and the presence of eye tracker in the experimental setup (two levels). We have found no significant effect of graphical personification in learning materials on positive affect, retention or transfer of acquired knowledge. The participants that were given learning materials containing personification and were subject to eye tracking...
