Confidence drives feedback-seeking behavior: Insights into learning and motivation

A new study from co-lead author Christopher J. Cagna, Ph.D., of the Kessler Foundation examines the determinants of feedback-seeking behavior and their impact on learning. In collaboration with fellow co-lead author, Jamil P. Bhanji, Ph.D., of Rutgers University, the study highlights that low confidence in task performance significantly motivates individuals to seek corrective feedback, which in turn enhances learning outcomes. The findings provide actionable insights for optimizing feedback strategies in environments where learning is critical to success.
