Abstract

This AMEE guide seeks to improve the metamotivational knowledge of health professions educators as well as students. We present key models and frameworks of Metamotivation, identify several motivation regulation strategies and their measurement tools, and propose applications for health professions education (HPE). Since our work is grounded on evidence from the field, we include new findings about motivation regulation to encourage further exploration. Although much of the research on Metamotivation has been done outside the field of medical education, we share our six years of research experience and findings within the field to inspire others to replicate and expand. © 2023 AMEE.
