Summary
Adult educators can use achievement motivation to recruit and support medical record administration students. Identifying candidates with a strong need to achieve can improve persistence in nontraditional programs.
Area of Science:
- Adult Education
- Medical Record Administration
- Health Professions Education
Background:
- Adult learners in medical record administration (ART) programs face various barriers.
- Understanding motivational factors is key to improving participation and persistence.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify practical applications of achievement motivation studies for adult educators.
- To inform strategies for recruiting, counseling, and supporting ART students in traditional and nontraditional programs.
Main Methods:
- The study analyzed achievement motivation in adult learners within medical record administration programs.
- Focus was placed on identifying barriers to participation and persistence.
Main Results:
- Individuals with a high need for achievement are better equipped to overcome barriers.
- Internal control orientations suggest a need for individually oriented learning strategies.
- Targeted counseling and support programs are recommended for ART students.
Conclusions:
- Adult educators can leverage achievement motivation for effective recruitment and screening.
- Tailored support and instructional methods are crucial for ART student success.
- Further research is needed to validate findings across diverse health professions.

02:20Longitudinal Research
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...
01:38Cognitive Dissonance
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005).

01:19Restorative Care
Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...
01:21Health Literacy
Health literacy is an individual's or a community's capacity to comprehend, receive, read, and use relevant healthcare information and services. The World Health Organization (WHO, 2018) defines health literacy as the cognitive and social skills that determine the ability of individuals to gain access to, understand, and use information in ways that promote and maintain good health. As a result, the WHO helps individuals manage long-term health concerns, participate in preventative programs,...
