Abstract
The objectives of this research are classified by the research process and research steps, i.e. the search for component factors of motivation and goal setting for physical exercises of students of Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT) in the second semester of academic year 2018, and to analyze the canonical correlation between the correlation coefficients of the two above-mentioned factors. The study was conducted with the research sample consisting of 340 students from a university, obtained by simple random sampling. After that, Pearson’s correlations and factor analysis were calculated, and then canonical correlation was calculated in the last stage. This research was a quantitative research and employed a questionnaire as a research tool. Its reliability was calculated by measuring internal consistency in terms of Cronbach’s alpha method which was equal to .893. The research findings show that motivation correlates with the goal of physical exercise which is in accordance with the formulated hypothesis. Results of canonical correlation analysis show that the correlation between intrinsic motivation and goal of physical exercise is higher than that between extrinsic motivation and goal of physical exercise. It can be concluded that the decision making of adolescents that is caused by intrinsic motivation has more influence on their physical exercise rather than their decision making caused by extrinsic motivation, which is in accordance with the self-determination theory.
