Summary/Abstract: Is very difficult to observe motivation in the pupils' learning process. We cannot objectively assess motivation, we do not see it with certainty, we do not know how much and what kind of motivation individual pupils' approaches require to achieve the desired school performance. However, we can say with certainty that we cannot look at the whole issue only from the perspective of external and internal motivation, but we must perceive it from the perspective of different dimensions. Consequently, our study deals with the issue of performance motivation and it is based on the analysis in relation to the age of the pupils.
