Q

THEORY OF VEALEY’S IF HIGH

A

> high levels of competitive orientation and trait sports confidence often leads to high levels in the sporting situation
both having high levels means that the athlete will have high sports confidence or self efficacy
with high self efficacy performance is likely to be high
if performance is high then the result of sports as skills will also be high
if results are good then positive results can improve competitive orientation
if results are good then positive results can improve trait sports confidence
