Thank you for your interest.

Good luck in your research.
AMS (Table 1) has 28 items grouped into 7 subscales, i.e. 4 items each, scored on a
Likert scale of 1–7. An average of the total scores on each subscale is taken as the score.
The subscales are ‘‘Intrinsic Motivation to know’’, ‘‘Intrinsic Motivation towards accom-
plishment’’ and ‘‘Intrinsic Motivation to experience stimulation’’, ‘‘Extrinsic Motivation-
Identified Regulation’’, ‘‘Extrinsic Motivation-Introjected Regulation’’, ‘‘Extrinsic
Motivation-External Regulation’’ and ‘‘Amotivation’’ (Vallerand et al. 1992). Intrinsic
motivation (IM)-to-know is to study for the pleasure and satisfaction experienced while
learning. IM-towards-accomplishment is to study for the pleasure and satisfaction expe-
rienced while accomplishing things (Vallerand et al. 1992). IM-to-experience stimulation
is to study in order to experience stimulating sensations (Vallerand et al. 1992). There is no
subscale available to measure EM-integrated regulation. There exists good evidence for the
validity and reliability of the abovementioned construct of motivation as measured by the
AMS (Vallerand et al. 1993).
