Positive Psychotherapy in Adolescents on Achievement Motivation

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of success skill development psychoeducation based on Positive Psychotherapy on the achievement motivation of adolescents.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The foundation of positive psychotherapy (PPT) Prof. Dr. It was cast by Nossrat Peseschkian. Psychodynamic approaches, existential-humanistic approaches, cultural therapy approaches and behavioral approaches are used in therapy. Positive Psychotherapy states that people have two basic abilities, namely loving and knowing. In line with the ability to love, primary abilities (love, modeling, relationship/contact, time, patience, trust, belief/religion, doubt, certainty, sexuality, hope and integrity) are formed; In line with the ability to know, secondary abilities (punctuality, orderliness, cleanliness, obedience, courtesy, honesty, loyalty, justice, hard work/success, frugality and reliability) are formed, which are behavioral categories. These real abilities develop with family, society, environment and time and become the character of the person, and the degree of whether or not the real abilities are in the person plays a decisive role in both the individual's own mental state and interpersonal relations. The ability to succeed, which is one of the secondary abilities, is extremely important for people to have goals and passions in life. The two most important components of a successful learning-teaching process are providing learner motivation and ensuring the learner's behavioral, sensory and cognitive participation in this process. Considering that a significant decrease in achievement motivation is observed especially in adolescents with advancing age, the achievement motivation levels of learners against course processes emerge as an important requirement.
