Main Article Content

This article derives recommendations for university teaching from the results of a learning psychology evaluation study of Master’s students on part-time social work courses. Only self-determined motivation, in particular intrinsic motivation, proved to be significant for academic study goals. With an overall low intrinsic motivation in favour of a rather externally determined motivation among master students, fundamental questions of selection diagnostics and the promotion of study success arise in order to counteract deprofessionalization in social work.
