What's the difference between global self-confidence and situation-specific self-confidence?

Global is more of a personality trait, like trying new things


Situation-specific is belief in a particular moment, like making the game-winning shot

What are three models of self-confidence?

Bandura's theory of self-efficacy


Harter's theory of competence motivation


Vealey's theory of sport confidence

In Bandura's theory of self-efficacy, he defines self-efficacy as a from of situation-specific self-confidence, a critical component to Bandura's social cognitive theory.


What are two other important parts of social cognitive theory?

Agency and personal control.


Self-efficacy requires the belief that one is in control, acts are performed intentionally, and they can influence outcomes

What were Bandura's four fundamental elements for developing self-efficacy?

Successful performance - give easier goals to instill success [doing well/feeling competent]


Vicarious experience - observational learning & participatory modeling [observing a model, then model assists to perform the task]


Verbal persuasion - encouragement from someone significant


Emotional arousal - optimal arousal levels




[others are also imaginal experiences seeing yourself do well, and mood]

Explain the basics of Harter's Competence Motivation Theory

People have an innate motivation to be competition in sport


[mastery attempts]




Unsuccessful performance leads to sports dropout


[via negative affect-->low competence motivation-->fewer mastery attempts]




Successful performance leads to more innate motivation to be competent in sport


[via self efficacy, positive affect; and feelings of competence-->high competence motivation]

Praise and technical info is good in enhancing competence motivation in response to good performance, but?




What is the reflected appraisal process?

But is bad in response to poor performance, and instead should give ''supportive silence''




The process of someone seeing themselves as competent via appraisal of others, own appraisal of self, and perception of how others appraise you

In Vealey's Multidimensional Model of Sport Confidence [MMSC], multidimensional sport confidence is seen as...?

Dispositional [trait] or state-like across a continuum of time

In the MMSC:


Sport confidence is affected by?




What are the three sources of sport-confidence?

Demographic [age/sex/ethnicity/culture], personality characteristics [attitudes/values];


Organizational culture [competitive level/motivational climate/program goals]




Achievement [mastery/demonstration of ability]


Self-regulation [physical/mental prep; self-presentation]


Social climate [social support/coach leadership/vicarious experience/environmental comfort/situational favorableness]

Sources of sport confidence influence and are influenced by what three types of sport confidence [SC]?

SC-cognitive efficiency [decision making/thought management/maintaining focus]


SC-physical skills/training [skill execution/training]


SC-resilience [overcoming: obstacles/setbacks/doubts; refocusing after errors]

Sport-confidence affects and is affected by what three things?




What two other things affect performance?

Affect, behaviour, cognition




Uncontrollable external factors and physical skills and characteristics

Psychological momentum is positive or negative change in cognition/affect/physiology/behaviour caused by an event or series of events that result in commensurate shift in performance and competitive outcome.


What is key in psychological momentum?


What are the three models of psychological momentum?

The precipitating event that leads to the momentum chain




Antercedents-consequences model


Multidimensional model


Projected performance model

What causes psychological motivation in the antecedents-consequences model?


*note whether or not psychological momentum translates into actual performance enhancement depends on the actions of opposing players and personal and situational context variables

A situational antecedent event, like a dunk in basketball, precipitates the perception of psychological momentum

In the multidimensional model, psychological momentum is defined as being either?




What is the key element in the model?




The precipitating event leads to change in cognition/affect/arousal, which leads to change in behaviour and performance, which leads to change in the immediate outcome.


What and when are the two moderator variables?

Either positive or negative



The precipitating event, which leads to a momentum chain




Experience of the athlete [btwn precipitating event and change in cognition/affect/arousal]


Opponent factor [btwn change in behaviour and performance and change in immediate outcome]

What does the projected performance model believe about the relationship between psychological momentum and improved performance?




This model sees positive and negative psychological momentum as?




Is this model supported?

It believes there is no clear cause-and-effect between psychological momentum and improved performance and these cycles of good and bad performance are often labeled as positive and negative momentum, but there is no causal relationship between the labels and actual performance




Only labels to describe extremely good or bad performances




No

An achievement situation is defined as one where social comparisons are being made, like in competitive sports.




Women and girls suffer from lower self-confidence when one of three situational variables are present, what are these variables?

Nature of the task - ex. if it doesn't conform to gender stereotypes, women are more likely to have lower self confidence


Ambiguity of available information - women do better with unambiguous information and clear feedback


Social comparison cues - working alone/ w/out social comparisons/cooperative tasks/ and women do well. Stereotype threat theory

What theory unifies the theory of motivation and puts all previous concepts into perspective?


What is it based upon?




What are the four parts to the integrated theory of motivation in spot?

Integrated theory of motivation in sport


Self-determination




Social factors --> Psychological need satisfaction --> Motivation --> Consequences



Social factors cause feelings of competence, autonomy and relatedness.


What are three examples of social factors?

Success/failure


Competition/cooperation - competition focuses on extrinsic social comparison which causes loss of joy, whereas cooperation focuses on contribution to team and progress


Coaches' behaviour - dictatorial reduces intrinsic motivation by taking away athlete autonomy/control

Psychological needs satisfaction focuses on what three innate human needs?

Need for:
Competence - competence [self-confidence] develops intrinsic motivation, but you n


Autonomy - feeling of agency/having a voice


Relatedness - relating to others/caring for others/others caring for you

Finally, the Integrated theory of motivation in sport has the motivation continuum - the self-determination and autonomy continuum


What are the three parts to this continuum going from least self-determining forms to most?




What is amotivation?

Amotivation, extrinsic motivation, intrinsic motivation




Behaviours neither internally nor externally based. Not knowing or seeing benefits to doing something. Very rare and don't usually pursue a sport

Intrinsic motivation is composed of what three motivations toward what?




Within intrinsic motivation is passion, what are the two types of passion?

Knowledge; accomplishment; experiencing stimulation




Obsessive passion - controlling, continue even if it conflicts with other parts of life


Harmonious - autonomous, balanced life

What are the four types of extrinsic motivation?

External regulation - least self-determined [purely for external reward/avoid punishment (cash)]




Introjected regulation - partially internalized, internalizing a motive but seeing the motivation as controlling [play to please parents]




Identified regulation - engaging in activities not out of interest, but because they see it as necessary to obtain a goal interesting to them [do dance to play hockey]




Integrated regulation - external behaviours become fully assimilated and internally controlled. Hard to distinguish btwn this and intrinsic motivation. [teammates all have similar goals]

Cognitive evaluation theory is a subtheory to the integrated theory of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.




The additive principle says an athlete low in intrinsic motivation will participate if there is sufficient reward/external motivation, is this correct? What principle relates to this?

No. The example of the multiplicative principle [interaction between intrinsic/external rewards can add/detract from intrinsic motivation] showed the kids didn't want to play at his house when they were paid less than originally

How can attribution theory be used for sports psyc?




Within attribution theory are what two principles?

Through attribution training, unnsuccessful results can be taught to attribute them to causes that are unstable but within control




Overjustification principle - adding external rewards represent overjustification for participation


Discounting principle - intrinsic value of activity is lessened due to rewards

Cognitive evaluation theory says that external rewards can affect intrinsic motivation in what two ways?

Controlling aspect of external motivation - believe behaviour controlled externally, lower intrinsic motivation, feel like a pawn




Informational aspect of external motivation - external award gives feedback, enhances sense of competence and self-determination, increases intrinsic motivation 0

What are the three types of goal orientation?

Task or mastery goal orientation - effort and mastery important


Ego goal or competitive orientation - social comparisons and winning is important


Social approval - ability based on how well people like you/followers




These are PERSONALITY TRAITS

2-6 year olds are highly task goal oriented, six/seven year olds are more ego oriented, and at 11/12 children become task or ego oriented.



What are the four levels of development in children for goal orientation?

1 - Undifferentiated goal perspective - child sees effort the same as ability/being successful w/no concept of how luck differs from ability or how tasks can be more or less difficult from another

2 - Recognizes difference between effort and ability, but believe effort is major indicator of success


3 - Transitional in the child sometimes realizes effort isn't the same as ability


4 - Differentiated goal perspective - ~12 years old, child distinguishes ability/effort/luck/outcome

What is goal involvement?


Goal involvement is broken down into ego involvement and task involvement.


What sorts of situations induce a state of ego/competitive involvement?


What sort of situations induce a state of task/mastery involvement?

Situation-specific state measure of how someone relates to an achievement situation at a specific point in time


Higher awareness of social evaluation


Situations that don't heighten awareness of social evaluation




THESE ARE PSYCHOLOGICAL STATES

What are the three types of motivational climates?

Mastery climate - positive reinforcement when one works hard/demonstrates improvement/helps others learn via cooperation/believe each player's contribution is important




Competitive climate - athletes perceive poor performance and mistakes are punished/high ability athletes get the most attention/competition between team members is encouraged




Interaction/cooperation - social engagement/everyone is important/beer league




THIS IS ENVIRONMENT

Explain how TARGET can be manipulated to create a more mastery climate

Tasks - varied/diverse, facilitate interest in learning and task involvement


Authority - students participate actively and monitor their own personal progress


Reward - based on individual gains & not social comparison


Grouping - students put in groups to work on individual skills in cooperative environment


Evaluation - self-tests focused on effort and personal improvement


Timing - timing is important for the interaction of all these conditions

How does goal orientation relate to moral functioning?

Ego orientation related to low moral functioning as they do anything to win


Task orientation related to high moral functioning

Task-oriented people tend to have adaptive motivational patterns. What is meant by this?




Ego-oriented people with high perceived ability will have adaptive motivational patterns. However, with low perceived ability, they will tend to have maladaptive motivational patterns. What is meant by this?

They choose challenging tasks that allow them to demonstrate persistence and sustained effort. These people focus on skill development, effort exertion, and self-improvement




Because motivation is to win, and they do not believe they can win, they will not partake in challenging activity



How is the matching hypothesis applied to motivation?

Goal orientation is like personality disposition


Motivational climate is like the situation




Task oriented + task climate + high perceived ability = persistence and effort [good outcome]




Ego oriented + ego climate + low perceived ability = maladaptive motivation pattern [bad outcome]

What four things have been found in relation to goal orientation antecedents and outcomes?

Men moreso than women perceive competence, a mastery motivation team climate, and a learning/enjoyment parental climate all lead to an increase in a mastery-approach goal orientation




Women moreso than men and a learning/enjoyment parental climate lead to an increase in mastery-avoidance goal orientation




Perceived competence and a performance motivational team climate both lead to higher performance approach goal orientation




Worry counducive parental climate leads to more performance-avoidance goal orientation

What are entity ability beliefs?




What are incremental ability beliefs?

Athlete believes ability is fixed and unchangeable


Increases performance goal orientation but performance goal orientation doesn't affect intrinsic motivation




Athlete believes ability can be changed via effort and practice


Increases mastery goal orientation, which increases intrinsic motivation

What happens when there is a lack of confidence?




What happens when there is optimal confidence?




What happens when there is overconfidence?

Lack = despite actual ability, focus on weaknesses increase self-doubts/anxiety/affect concentration/lead to indecisiveness




Optimal = believe goal is possible, positive self judgement sustained regardless of errors




Over = may lead to lack of preparation/effort

What are the three basic types of goals?

Outcome goals - focus on outcome & involve interpersonal comparison [winning gold]


Performance goals - end product of performance independent of other performers and the team [new PR]


Process goals - specific behaviours exhibited throughout a performance [technique]

Give two reasons to prefer performance goals to outcome goals




What's the benefit of using process goals?




The process goal paradox says process goals are desirable, but this conscious processing can disturb smooth execution of a well-learned motor skill. How is this addressed?

1 - If performance goals are accomplished, usually outcome goals are as well


2 - Personal satisfaction occurs w/performance goals even if outcome is unfulfilled




Usually results in better performance and outcome




Process goal should be holistic and not interfere with executing a motor skill

What are the five reasons goal setting results in improved performance?

Directed attention - focus attention on task and its relation to achieving the goal, instead of having no goal and the mind wandering with no direction




Effort mobilization - setting a goal results in increased effort




Persistence - focus effort and attention on improving for long time




Developing new learning strategies - learn new stuff to get better




Increase in positive affect - increases motivation, performance, and commitment

What are ten principles of effective goal setting?

Make goals specific/measureable/observable


Clearly identify time constraints


Use moderately difficult goals as they're superior to easy or very difficult goals


Use process, performance, and outcome goals


Use short-range goals to achieve long-range


Set team and individual performance goals


Set practice and competition goals


Ensure goals are internalized by the athlete


Consider personality and individual differences in goal setting

What are the three phases of a team approach to setting goals?

Planning phase - needs assessment of team as whole and each person


Meeting phase


Evaluation phase

What are five common goal-setting pitfalls?

Poorly written goal statements - violation of SMART goals


Failure to devise a goal-attainment strategy


Failure to follow the goal-attainment strategy


Failure to monitor performance progress


Discouragement [goal difficulty, use of outcome goals, too many goals]

The self-concordance model addresses the process of goal striving and its effect on well-being in the framework of self-determination theory [SDT], where goal striving is defined as the process of striving to set and achieve goals.


Within this framework, there are what two kinds of goal striving?

1 - Striving for personal goals that are based on autonomous motivational regulation --> leads to sustained effort




2 - Striving for personal goals that are based on externally controlled motivational regulation --> leads to initial effort that is not sustainable

What is the goal setting paradox?

Everyone has set goals, but only a number of people actually achieve them

What three things should be considered in the Specific part of SMART goals?




What two parts should be considered in the Measurable part of SMART goals?

Types of motivational regulation [external/internal]


Types of personality [locus of causality; self-efficacy]


Types of goal orientation [ego/mastery]




Quantifiable/observable action oriented


Have a pre-post comparison by using a baseline

What two parts should be considered in the Attainable part of SMART goals?

Enhancing intrinsic motivation


Individually matched to ability

Realistic [SMART] goals should be matched to what four things?




Time framed [SMART] goals should have what two aspects?

Current starting point, preferences, challenge and past experiences, work/family life/priorities/time available




Short term and long term


Appropriate for particular skill [too short = defeated, too long = procrastinate]

SMART goals fIRE up motivation:

What two basic concepts must be understood to understand the relationship between cohesion and team behaviour?

Distinction between task cohesion and social cohesion

Distinction between direct and indirect measurement of cohesion

Task cohesion and social cohesion are two independent parts of team cohesion


What is task cohesion?


What is social cohesion




What is indirect measurement approach of team cohesion [not used that much]?


What is direct measurement approach of team cohesion?

How much members of a team work together to achieve a specific and identifiable goal


How much team members like each other and enjoy personal satisfaction from being members of the team




Gets at team cohesion by asking each member how they feel about every other member via a basic question


Players are asked to indicate how much they like playing for the team [individual attraction], and how well they feel the team functions as a unit [group integration]

What is the primary inventory for measuring team cohesion?


For youth?

The Group Environment Questionnaire [GEQ]


Youth Sports Environment Questionnaire [YSEQ]

What are the four determinants of team cohesion?

1 - Personal factors [satisfaction/similarity of experience]


2 - Team factors [prior success/communication/team goals/importance of achieving goals]


3 - Leadership factors [effort to develop cohesion]


4 - Environmental factors [size of group]

What are two consequences of team cohesion?




What are eight others?

1 - Group outcomes [team stability/absolute performance effectiveness/relative performance effectiveness]



2 - Individual outcomes [behavioural outcomes/absolute performance effectiveness/relative performance effectiveness]




Better athletic performance, direction of causality for cohesion-performance relationship, improving team efficacy, homogeneity of team cohesion, moderator of disruptive effect of self-handicapping, perceived psychological momentum, enhanced mood/emotion/satisfaction

What are the four stages in forming team cohesion?

Forming - excitement of new relationships/getting together with team for common goal



Storming - struggle w/frustrations [learning new team system/getting to know teammates]




Norming - team members agree on common goals and norms




Performing - team performs as cohesive unit

Team building is a process to promote increased unity and cohesiveness to enable the team to function more smoothly and effectively; aka team building should lead to cohesiveness in a team.




What are the two intervention approaches?




What are the four stages in the indirect intervention approach?

Direct intervention approach [via athletes] - sports psyc empowers athletes/employees via seminars/experiences to have team cohesion




Indirect intervention approach [via coaches] - sports psyc teaches coaches/managers how to conduct team building with their athletes or employees




Intro phase - coaches learn about benefits of team cohesion


Conceptual phase - coaches learn to conceptualize team cohesion as direct result of various team cooperation


Practical phase - specific team building strategies are made


Intervention phase - actual strategies used

Group structure is a shared expectation of behaviour that differentiate members.


What are the two ways this can occur?




In order to improve team effectiveness, there must be what two things?

Formal [assigned] vs informal [evolve from groups]



Role clarity vs ambiguity [individual role understanding for responsibility/consequences]


Role acceptance [accepting the role even if it isn't a 'star' position]

What are three role conflicts?

Intrarole = single role causes condradictory demands on the person [told to be aggressive then get penalty; creates role ambiguity]




Interrole = two different expectations between two roles for one person [player as well as manager]




Person-role = unable/unwilling to fulfill duties

Group norms are structured [informal or formal] rules that govern how the group is organized and maintained, including for practices/effort/attitude/member relationships.




What are the five ways group norms are developed?

Critical members [coach/captain/leader]

Explicit statements


Critical events in team history [precedents]


Primacy [first behaviour sets expectations]


Carryout behaviours [from other groups]

Team composition is the degree of group hetero/homogeneity and can affect interactions and productivity.




Team composition is based on what two things?

Personality characteristics - same attitudes in the sport [aspiration/commitment]




Skills/abilities/tasks - similarity increases performance for sports of similar tasks [doubles tennis]; diversity increases performance for sports with distinct tasks [football]

What does Steiner's model say about:




3 things about group performance as size Increases?




Abilities of each member of a team may not predict how well a team will perform, as performance is dependent on what three things?



More potential for productivity [more chance to find skill]


Efficiency of group processes suffer [hard to coordinate team meetings/practices/more redundancy/people sitting on bench]


Decreases in performance can result




How much ability each team member has


Ability relative to other members [similar]


^^ combined with effort of each member [motivation losses]; and effectiveness of team strategies (timing/predicting each others actions) [coordination losses]

Social loafing occurs in groups, causing a 'more is less' phenomenon.


Social loafing can be reduced by what number of ways?

Individual outputs measured, & not unidentified

Individual contributions to outcome are perceived significant, unique [vs redundant]


Task has meaning


Possible to compare to self/other groups


Positive feelings toward each other [vs strangers]


Teammates perceived equal/low in ability [vs higher] than individual


Empathy of player position [responsibility/effort] is gained

Team cohesion should include what five things?

An intervention approach [direct vs indirect]




Perceived distinctiveness in identity [pride]




Proximity [physical closeness/frequency of interactions/communication]




Trust [honesty/personal disclosure]




Leadership

Leadership theories are based on whether the theory deals with:


Leadership traits [stable personality characteristics (intelligence/aggressiveness/independence)


Leadership behaviours [observed behaviour, little to do w/personalities]


Universal traits/behaviours [found in all successful leaders]


Situational traits/behaviours [help success in one situation, but not in another]




What are the four types of leadership theories?

Trait/great man theory - high universal, trait - great leaders born w/personality traits that lead to success in all situations

[TRAIT APPROACH/LEADERS ARE BORN]




Fiedler's contingency theory - low universal, trait - personality traits that lead effectively in one situation may not in another


[INTERACTIONIST APPROACH/RIGHT PERSON RIGHT TIME]




Michigan/Ohio studies - high universal, behaviour - great leaders have general behavioural characteristics that can be learned [UNIVERSAL BEHAVIOURIST APPROACH/LEADERS ARE MADE]




Situation-specific theories - low universal, behaviour - effective leadership is from learned behaviours that are situation specific

Is trait 'great man' theory supported?




The Michigan/Ohio studies found what two factors in characterizing the behaviour of leaders?


What two leadership styles emerged from this?




High consideration and high initiating structure is considered best for leadership, but hard to do by one person.


What has been created to remedy this?





No




Consideration - friendship/respect/warmth between leader and subordinates


Initiating structure - defined relationship between leader and subordinates/patterns of organization/channels of communication/methods of procedure


Transformational leadership - like consideration


Transactional leadership - like initiating structure




Functional model of leadership - getting multiple people high in either to work together in leading

Fiedler's contingency theory states effectiveness of a group depends on two factors:


Personality of the leader


Situation favorableness




Personality can be affected by what two things?




Situational favorableness depends on what 3 things?

Relationship motivation - concern w/interpersonal relationship between leader and subordinates, task is of secondary concern

OR


Task motivation - concern of accomplishing task, relationships are secondary concern




Leader-member relations


Task structure


Leader position power

When did Fiedler believed task-oriented leaders do best?


Relationship-oriented leaders?




Fiedler believed leadership training programs are of little value as they teach to enhance power and influence. Power and influence doesn't benefit the relationship-oriented person who does best in a moderately favourable situation.


Fiedler proposed there are only two ways to improve leadership effectiveness, what are these?

Task-oriented leaders perform best in favourable or unfavourable situations [get the job done/initiate structure/group goals/performance/productivity] and this leadership should be used in beginning of season


Relationship-oriented perform best in moderate favourableness [open comms/consideration/concern/interpersonal development] and should be used in middle of season




1 - Changing leader's personality [unlikely]


2 - Changing situation favorability [organizational structure/look for leaders w/personality characteristics consistent w/existing structure and situational favourablesness]

Situation-specific behaviour theories include path-goal theory and life cycle theory.




What are these?

Path goal theory - needs/goals of subordinate or athlete is emphasized, and leader puts them on their 'path' to realize them




Life cycle theory - leadership style depends on maturity of followers; need for task structure behaviour decreases w/increased maturity; need for relationship behaviour is inverted U relative to maturity [low & high levels of maturity, relatoinship behaviour is low, at moderate levels of maturity relationship behaviour is high]

Smith's sport personality contingency model is a type of situation-specific sport model of leadership.




What does it describe?




Before the coaching behaviour response, the personality and situation are filtered through a five-element CAPS filtering system, what are the five pieces?




The interaction of the situation, leader's personality, and the CAPS elements, creates?




What is the personality paradox?

How a leader's personality interacts with situation, to result in a coaching behaviour response




1 - Encoding


2 - Expectations/beliefs


3 - Affects/emotional responses


4 - Goals/values


5 - Skills/self-regulatory competencies




Coach's behavioural signature




Despite leader personality not changing, CAPS process doesn't always give the same results

Chelladurai's multidimensional model of leadership is a situation-specific sport behavioural model.




REFER TO PAGE 383. FIGURE 16.5




Explain the three basics:




Congruence on all three creates?

Antecedents: situational, leader, and member characteristics interact with



Leader behaviour: required, actual, preferred behaviours interact with




Consequences: performance, satisfaction




Congruence on all three = ideal performance and satisfaction [required/prescribed behaviour + athlete's preferred behaviour + coach's actual behaviour = ideal]

The leadership behaviour model is a type of situation specific sport behavioural model




REFER TO PAGE 385. FIGURE 16.7




The Coaching Behaviour Assessment System [CBAS] is composed of what two types of behaviours by the coach?




The Coach Effectiveness Training [CET] program is an extension of CBAS, and is to teach youth coaches how to engage in team building.


What are the five components of CET?

Reactive behaviours - coach reactions to player/team behaviours


Spontaneous behaviours - initiated by coach, not in response to athlete behaviour




'Winning' isn't win-loss, but giving max effort and improving [mastery climate]




Positive sandwich approach [reinforcement/instruction/encouragement]




Norms made that emphasize athletes' mutual obligation to help/support one another




Compliance w/team roles and responsibilities promoted by involving athletes in decisions regarding team rules/compliance




Coaches get behavioural feedback and engage in self-mointoring to increase awareness of their own behaviours



In the conceptual model of coaching efficacy, coaching efficacy [extent coaches believe they have they can affect learning/performance of athletes] predicts outcomes, but is predicated by?




The CES [Coaching Efficacy Scale] and CCS [Coaching Competency Scale] were made to measure coaching efficacy.


What is the difference between the two?

Efficacy sources/competence information [experience/prior success/perceived skill of athletes/school or community support]




CES is from perception of the coach on his coaching skills


CCS is from athlete's perception of coaching competence

Explain the two parts to the coach-athlete dyad



Compatible dyad: good communication and rewarding behaviour is present




Incompatible dyad: lacking communication and rewarding behaviour absent

Miller's assertiveness training module instructs the athlete in what three steps?

Describe situation to athlete


Tell how their job affects the team


Tell what you think should be done

In the Jowett model of coach-athlete dyad relationship (or 3+1 Cs model of coach athlete relationship), compatability of the coach-athlete dyad is based on what three aspects?




*NOTE: coorientation was added to reflect degree of agreement between coach/athlete on the three aspects.




The 2x2 coach athlete dyad has what two perspectives?


It should conclude with?

Affective aspect - positive/negative manifestations of closeness (mutual respect/common belief btwn members of dyad)


Cognitive aspect - commitment (dedication/sacrifice/satisfaction btwn members of dyad)


Behavioural aspect - complementarity (coach/athlete complement each other's strengths in terms of roles/tasks/ability to adapt)




Direct perspective - how coach/athlete perceives their relationship


Meta perspective - how coach perceives the athlete feels about their relationsihp


Conclude w/'I respect my athlete and my athlete respects me' for compatability

What is task dependence?




What is propinquity?




What are these things related to?




What is stacking?

The interaction between players of the same team



Observability and visibility on the playing field from other teammates




Higher task dependence or propinquity means higher leadership responsibility




Disproportionate placement of minorities/blacks into positions of low centrality relative to task dependence and propinquity

What are the two types of communication in coaching?

Intrapersonal = within people [internal dialogue/self talk]


Interpersonal = between people [external dialogue/verbal intentional communication/nonverbal intentional or unintentional communication

Interpersonal verbal communication should have what aspects?

Empathy, positive/energetic, respectful/fair, loyal/available, adaptable in style


Provide authentic well chosen feedback - specific praise for effort/good performance; specific technical instruction; sandwich approach

Interpersonal listening should have what three aspects?

Aware - attentive/engaged/blocking out distractions/nodding/small verbalizations; provide 'ear'; want to vent/be heard




Supportive - eye contact/nod/show interest/open body position [reality check/want support]/face away or direct; show value/acknowledge statements and feelings/empathy; want support/reality confirmation




Active - Direct facing; acknowledge/attend to specifics/clarify/paraphrase with sincere feedback; feedback is given

Nonverbal communication is broken down into:


Facial expressions - most important


[what are the six types?]


Kinesics - body movement w/out contact [what are the two types?]




Facial expressions/kinesics are important to be able to read and respond to athletes in what five ways?

Anger/fear/disgust/happy/sad/surprise




Postures - perceived affective meaning


Gestures - understood meaning of presented/moved body parts




Instruction [interest/understanding concepts]


Intensity of activity [easy or hard]


Anxiety/arousal


Motivation [like/dislike]


Strategy [read opponent]

Nonverbal behaviour is also broken down into:

Haptics - where/when/how one person touches another


[what are the types?]


Proxemics - distance between people


[what are the types?]




Give reasons why haptics and proxemics are important

Playful/positive affect/control/ritualistic/task related/aggressive


Public/social/personal/intimate




Instruction usage [touch-training] to improve kinaesthetic awareness


Encourage sportsmanship/conflict aversion [in your face]


Rituals and roles [huddle/chest butt]

Injury d



Exercise dependence, exercise addiction, and obligatory runner are classified as psychologically depndence on a regular regimen of exercise.


Super adherers are exercisers who participant/constantly train for endurance events that require significant long-term effort and commitment.


Failure to exercise to schedule for these people results in mood state disturbance and significant emotional trauma.




People have exercise dependence if they score at least three of what seven characteristics of exercise dependence?




Exercise dependence can be predicted by what four things?




The continuum model of obligatory exercise conceptualizes exercise dependence as a continuum, from mildly obsessive-compulsive traits to significant obsessive-compulsive traits.


What does it correlate with?

Tolerance - must continually increase exercise for desired effect


Withdrawal - experience symptoms of anxiety/fatigue when deprived of exerciseIntention effects - exercise longer/greater intensity than intended


Loss of control - unsuccessful at reducing amount of exercise taken


Time - spend excessive time exercising


Conflict - occupational or social activities sacrificed in order to exercise


Continuance - continue in face of illness/injury




Perfectionism, using imagery to increase energy and appearance, being male, and substance use/abuse




Correlated w/risk for eating disorders

The key element in the model is the stress response, explain why




A stress response will evoke what types of physiological and attentional changes?




What is the main point of this model?

Stressful athletic situation causes cognitive appraisal of task's associated demands, coping resources, and consequences.


If demands exceed resources, stress is high


If resources exceed demands, stress is minimal




Muscle tension/narrowing of visual field/increased distractibility




Any cognitive appraisal that leads to stress response, will put athlete at risk for injury

What are five personality factors in the Williams/Anderson stress and injury model, that can directly effect how an athlete reacts to a stress response, and indirectly to the incidence of athletic injuries?

Mental toughness, internal locus of control, mastery goal orientation, competitive trait anxiety, intrinsic motivation

What are two history of stressors in the Williams/Anderson stress and injury model, that together can have an interactive effect on the stress response leading to injury?


Give three positive, and three negative examples of the first

Life Stress/Daily hassles - undermine ability of athlete to effectively address the stress response & associated physiological and attentional consequences that can lead to injury vulnerability


Positive = studying/making relationships/raising family


Negative = divorce/death in family/loss of job




Previous injury - worrying about previous injuries leads to distraction and inappropriate focus during competition

Coping behaviours are any behaviour that assists deal with a stressful situation.


Coping behaviours are highly individualistic and can reduce incidence of injury.

Acute - due to trauma, intense, short


Chronic - long lasting, very complex [hard to control]


Benign - short in duration, no swelling [headache]


Harmful - present before-after exertion, swelling, tender, prolonged soreness

What are the three main types of pain management? Examples of each




What are the two types of non pharmacological psychological techniques?

Nonpharmacological physiological techniques - IMS/chiro/massage/graston/topical treatments...




Nonpharmacological psychological techniques


Pain reduction techniques - self talk/imagery/meditation/slow music/deep breathing/progressive relaxation


Pain focusing techniques - dissociation [direct focus away from pain, used for acute]; association [internalize and focus on pain, used for chronic to understand it and perceive control]
