Predicting the achievement emotions of elementary and middle school students in online learning based on control-value theory.

Introduction: Achievement emotions have a profound impact on students' academic achievements and learning strategies, especially in online learning context where students may face great challenges in maintaining positive emotions due to physical separation and social isolation. While most studies focus on achievement emotions as predictors of academic performance, fewer have examined them as outcome variables. However, achievement emotions themselves can be seen as an important learning outcome, as experiencing positive achievement emotions is also a valuable learning goal.
