Fantastic Motivation Article: Yours to Own!

I once loved Psych Info with all my heart but recently I have found myself lusting after another - Google Scholar. Not only is it easier to search for stuff and the import function for End Note is that much easier to use but many of the articles I like to talk about can be freely downloaded by all.

An important example is this article by Martin Covington (2000). Not only is this a great overview of goal theory and motivation but here Covington gives a brief overview of his own work. Covington has never gotten the respect and press that he deserves but his work serves as a foundation a lot of work on motivation in applied domains.

Get it, read it, review it, and post your thoughts here!
