The Motivational Trait Questionnaire

The items for the Motivational Trait Questionnaire (MTQ) have not been published. However, Ruth Kanfer and I are more than happy to have you use the MTQ,  or its associated short form, in your research or classroom. Just click on the links below for the forms (the scoring system is on the last page of the document)

Please email me (edhegges@charlotte.edu) and I will be happy to provide you with a copy of the short or the long form.

Polynomial Regression & Response Surface Analysis Excel File

In 2010, I published a paper with Drs. Linda Shanock, Ben Baran, Bill Gentry and Stacy Pattison on how to do Polynomial Regression and Response Surface Analysis. As a supplement to that paper, we offered an Excel file which could be used to generate the response surface, coefficients for slope and curvature along the X=Y and X=-Y lines, and tests of the statistical significance of those coefficients. This file makes response surface analysis so easy! Click here for a copy
