Self-report questionnaires, such as the MSLQ or other instruments developedfrom a SAL perspective, can provide information about studentmotivation in the college classroom as well as general capabilities for selfregulation.The key issues for assessment really revolve around questionsof construct validity, which include the theoretical and conceptual definitionof the construct and the adequacy of the empirical evidence that isoffered in support of the instrument (Pintrich et al., 2000). Without a strongframework, it is very difficult to interpret the empirical evidence regardingthe reliability and validity of the instrument (Messick, 1989; Pintrich et al.,2000). This caution is important for all models and instruments regardlessof whether they were developed under either a SRL or SAL perspective.The proposed model of self-regulation does provide a conceptualmodel of college student motivation and self-regulation that is based in a psychologicalanalysis of academic learning. In addition, there is fairly wide;support from both laboratory and field-based studies for SRL modelsof this type (Pintrich, 2000b). The model should provide guidance andsupport for the evaluation of the empirical evidence in relation to the constructvalidity of assessment instruments such as self-report questionnairesas well as other types of measures of self-regulated learning. This should be helpful in developing valid assessments of college student motivation andself-regulated learning.Beyond the assessment issues, the model does propose constructs thatoverlap with some constructs that are derived from SAL models. As notedearlier, some of the cognitive and behavioral self-regulatory strategies inTable I overlap with constructs from the SAL models. In addition, thethe model shares some basic assumptions with SAL models about the constructivistnature of learning and the important mediational role of student motivationand self-regulation. However, it Differens from some SAL models bysuggesting a much more differentiated and detailed framework for understandingStudent motivation and learning. It proposes many different constructs,strategies, and tactics, in contrast to a more general SAL frameworkthat includes more general constructs and approaches to learning.
