Abstract
Research was reviewed suggesting that Hawaiian-American achievement is related to affiliation motivation. Fantasy n affiliation (nAff) was correlated with reading achievement test scores, but not math achievement scores, for a sample of 67 males and females. There was no relationship between n Ach and achievement test scores. The process linking nAff and Hawaiian-American achievement was suggested to involve differential responsiveness to teacher social influence. The results support the view that there are cultural variations in the motivational antecedents of achievement.
