VÝKONOVÁ MOTIVACE VIETNAMSKÝCH STUDENTŮ A FAKTORY, KTERÉ JI OVLIVŇUJÍ

This diploma thesis deals with the achievement motivation of Vietnamese students at VŠE and the factors that influence it. Since many of the second generation Vietnamese are still studying and some are entering the work force, it is important to know, how to work with their achievement motivation. The aim of this thesis is to analyse the achievement motivation of Vietnamese students and to compare it with that of Czech students at VŠE based on modified version of the scale of achievement motivation by Helmreich and Spencová. Another aim is to identify the factors that affect the achievement motivation of Vietnamese students the most. This aim was achieved through deep interviews with 8 master's degree student. The secondary aim is to broaden the theoretical knowledge about Vietnamese community in the Czech Republic, focusing on the second generation Vietnamese. The practical part consists of quantitative and qualitative research. The discussion reveals where the theoretical and practical part align. Furthermore, it lists the limits of the conducted study. The results are summarized in conclusion. Quantitative research has found that there is no statistical difference between the achievement motivation of Vietnamese and Czech students at the University of Economics in Prague. Qualitative research has suggested that upbringing and culture are important factors that affect the achievement motivation of Vietnamese students.
