Abstract	Examined the change-change assumption of the control-value theory of achievement emotions (CVTAE) with regard to personal antecedents of enjoyment of learning in mathematics among 6th graders. Specifically, the authors hypothesized that positive changes in perceived control and perceived value longitudinally predict positive changes in learning enjoyment. Latent-change models were used to analyze data gathered from 431 6th graders (mean age 12 years) on 3 measurement occasions over one school year. Results supported the hypothesis, showing positive correlations between the personal antecedents control and value and enjoyment of learning. Additionally, changes in perceived control and changes in perceived value appear to be related, so that a positive change in one resulted in a positive change in the other. In conclusion, the control-control assumption was confirmed: Changes in perceived control and value longitudinally predicted changes in enjoyment of learning. Findings suggest that teaching practices which include positive influence on perceived control and perceived value could positively influence enjoyment of learning in students. (ZPID).
