論文The purpose of present study was to clarify the psychological mechanism that aroused interests and to examine the "Triggered lnterests Hypothesis" that a concrete, momentary, and specific event aroused interests. Participants (545 university students) completed the personal documents about the development of their own intrinsic motivations. The content of their interests, the experience of triggered interests or non-triggered interests, the age and the environment of the experiences were categorized. The results were as follows: (1) 27.4% of all data were classified as triggered interests, (2) there were more trigger experiences in the high school age than in other ages, (3) the contents about music and reading were influenced by the age. These findings suggest that interests can be illustrated by the trigger interests hypothesis to some extent.
