If we consider that learning is a process centred on the individual,
driven by a complex combination of motives, linked with projects
and expectations, it is important to understand the reasons that can
drive adults towards learning.
A deeper look into the motives for pursuing learning in higher
education shows that adult motives are plural and related to the
specific period of each person's life story (age, employment situation,
etc.). Results of this research highlights that there is a strong relation
between epistemic motives, higher levels of education and training,
and interest in pursuing learning.
