Q
evaluate the effectiveness of extrinsic motivation for a beginner in sport (4)
A
Extrinsic rewards may result in pride which encourage the beginner to try harder to improve (1)
* Performers can become reliant on extrinsic motivation and if it is not given then the beginner may
reduce effort levels or give up completely (1)
* Intrinsic motivation leads to continued participation as the beginner may be making a lot of errors and strives to improve for personal achievement (1)
* Intrinsic is more effective for a beginner as it encourages them to play for the love of the game rather than for rewards or praise (1)

Having enough water to enable normal functioning of the body
29
What is dehydration?
Excessive loss of body water interrupting the function of the body
30
Describe the effects of dehydration
Increased viscosity of blood slows blood flow so the heart has to work harder; increased body temperature may cause overheating; increased reaction time, poorer decisions; muscle fatigue/ cramps
31
What is a skill?
A learned action/behaviour with the intention of bringing about pre-determined results
32

52
What is feedback in information processing?
Receiving intrinsic/extrinsic information about the success of the response
53
Describe the characteristics of extrinsic feedback
Comes from an external source; beginners rely on it heavily as they struggle to interpret their own success of their movement
54
Describe the characteristics of intrinsic feedback
Performers develop the ability to interpret sensory information; sensing movement of muscles and joints to assess skill success (kinaesthesia)
55
Describe the characteristics of positive feedback
Informs the athlete what was correct about the movement; given extrinsically; beginners need it to motivate them
56
Describe the characteristics of negative feedback
Includes information on actions required by performer to achieve the correct movement; given extrinsically; this can demotivate beginners but elite performers can accept it
57

84
Weaknesses of mechanical guidance
Reliance on mechanical aid, not always realistic
85
Describe the inverted U theory
The performance goes up with arousal until it reaches the optimum level, then when arousal increases the performances decreases because arousal level is too high. When arousal is too low the performance is also low.
86
What are engagement patterns?
How levels of participation vary over different social groups
87
Describe some social groups
Gender; race/religion/culture; age; family/friends/peers; disability
88
Explain how gender affects participation
Much fewer women participate in sport than men; many girls do not see the relevance of sport and think choices in school sport are limited; many girls dislike taking part with boys who play aggressively; many girls feel judged and are therefore embarrassed by how they look; many girls lack positive role models and see that women’s sport usually has a lower status and receives less media coverage; many women have less spare time due to childcare responsibilities
89
Explain how race/religion/culture affects participation
Black and Minority Ethnic communities have lower rates of participation in sport; this is mostly due to a lack of BME role models involved in leading and organising sport; there may also be cultural stereotypes associated with minority groups
90

126
Describe the positive influence of spectators
The creation of atmosphere motivates the performers; home-field advantages improve the performance of the home team due to more fans
127
Describe the negative influence of spectators
Negative effect on performance as a result of increased pressure; potential for crowd trouble/hooliganism; safety costs/concerns; negative effect on participation numbers amongst younger performers
128
Explain some reasons for hooliganism
Rivalries between teams lead to aggression; hype from the atmosphere leads to fans losing control; alcohol/drugs fuels aggression and reduces inhibitions; frustration at the result or a decision can lead to more aggression; display of masculinity to show who is better
129
Explain some strategies against hooliganism
Early kick-offs reduce the potential for alcohol consumption; all-seater stadia means no fan is getting in the way of another; segregation of fans prevents violence between opposing fans; improved security prevents violence from breaking out; alcohol restrictions mean fans have more control over their inhibitions; travel restrictions ban hooligans from travelling to away fixtures; education/campaigns promote anti-hooliganism
