We fist primed promotion and prevention goals, and then examined the impact of role models on motivation. Participants' academic motivation was increased by goal-congruent role models but decreased by goal-incongruent role models.

Participants were more likely to generate real-life role models that matched their chronic goals.Our research explored the decisive impact of individuals' focusing goals play in the impact role models on motivation, which gives important implications to our education and other disciplines ongoing education of role model.
