| Abstract | This study explored the relationship between academic orientation, academic achievement, and interest in night-sky watching (noctcaelador). Participants included 117 students enrolled in undergraduate psychology classes who completed the Survey of Academic Orientations (SAO; Davidson, Beck, & Silver, 1999), Noctcaelador Inventory (NI; Kelly, 2004), and self-reported their overall college grade-point averages (GPA). Regression analyses indicated that together the six academic orientation factors and GPA accounted for 13% of the variance in NI scores. However, only the Reading for Pleasure and Mistrust of Instructors factors of the SAO had a direct significant relationship with NI scores. These results characterize students interested in watching the night-sky as being interested in reading from diverse sources and being more likely to think of instructors as unfair and unempathic regarding students' concerns.
