Q

Constructivism

A

you build upon what you already know

Q

Insight learning

A

Existing knowledge is used to form an idea on how to tackle a situation
This is from their general sporting knowledge
If successful, the tactic will be used in the future in a similar manner.

25
Why does insight learning provide a sense of satisfaction and motivation instrinsically
It is worked out by the athlete
26
Drawbacks of insight learning
As novices may not have enough experience/sufficient general sporting knowledge to generate their solutions it may not be appropriate for all learners
27
Trait theory (personality)
Innate characteristics (which are stable and enduring) shape behaviour
28
Drawbacks of trait theory WRT personality
It does not account for personality change , for example behaviour is likely to change if given a red card It also does not consider personality can be formed by experience
29
Social learning theory (personality)
we learn by observing others offering how personalities can develop through socialisation
30
Process of social learning theory
Observe - identify - reinforce - copy
31
Interactionist perspective combination (personality)
trait theory + social learning theory behaviour adapts depending on the situation one is placed in
32
Lewin's approach
B = f(PxE)
33
Hollander approach to personality
1. The core of the performer - their values and beliefs 2. Typical responses - inherent traits towards specific situations 3. Role-related behaviour - which the performer adopts when required
34
How can the Interactionist perspective improve performance
A coach can predict potentially aggressive behaviour and substitute player (Granit Xhaka) A coach can identify situations that reduce performance and rein-act the situation in training
35
Ways to change attitudes
Cognitive dissonance and persuasive communication
36
Triadic model
37
Cognitive (Triadic model)
Knowledge and beliefs
38
Affective (Triadic model)
Feelings and emotions
39
Behavioural (Triadic model)
Actual behaviour
40
Cognitive Dissonance
when a coach puts pressure on one or more of the attitude components so the performer becomes uneasy and motivated to change behaviour
41
Examples of cognitive dissonance
Player being given new information (pointing out the benefits of exercising, may lead to person exercising) Making the activity less tedious Using rewards as a form of reinforcement Specialist/role model bought in to encourage participation
42
Persuasive communication
As attitudes are fairly stable: communication needs to be relevant and important needs to be understood come from a high status individual has to be the right timing
43
Instinct theory (aggression)
an evolutionary theory that suggest performers are born with aggressive instincts, this can surface with enough provocation
44
Drawbacks of instinct theory (aggression)
Not all aggression is spontaneous and reactive some aggression is learnt and pre-intended rather than experiencing catharsis some players increase their aggression levels.
45
Frustration-aggression hypothesis
when goals are blocked, frustration increases a build up of frustration may lead to aggressive tendencies catharsis may lower aggression
46
what happens if a performer is unable to reduce aggression levels (frust-agr)
a form of self-punishment will occur and even more frustration will occur ∵ increased aggressive drive
47
Catharsis
Letting off steam ∵ aggressive drive will be reduced
48
Why do players react aggressively:
losing poor performance disagreement with referee pressure
49
Aggressive cue hypothesis
aggressive behaviour will occur when certain learnt cues are present
50
Aggressive cue hypothesis (theorist)
Berkowitz
51
Other cues for aggressive acts (ag-cue)
away rival fixtures (a form of pressure) sporting equipment (racquets) people a set piece may encourage aggression
52
Social learning theory (aggression)
Aggression can be seen as a learnt response, particularly if it is reinforced
53
Social learning theory is also known as
Observational learning
54
Social learning theory (theorist)
Bandura
55
Bandura process
Observe - identify - reinforce - copy
56
Behavioural effects due to the presence of others (theorist)
Zajonc
57
Behavioural effects due to the presence of others (who are the others)
The audience The co-actors (not within the game, ppl playing 1t1b) The competitors The social reinforcers (coaches)
58
Passive "others"
Audience and co-actors
59
Interactive "others"
Competitors and social reinforcers
60
Social facilitation
Often experienced by an expert; copes with the demands of the crowd causing motivation and increased skill performance
61
Social inhibition
When an individual is unable to cope with the demands of the crowd causing anxiety and over arousal.
62
Steiner's model of team performance
Actual productivity = potential productivity - losses due to faulty processes
63
What does Steiner's model of team performance show
how the team with "worse" players are able to beat the team with "better" players
64
The faulty processes
co-ordination and motivational problems
65
Coordination problems WRT steiners model
tactics communication
66
motivational problems WRT steiners model
social loafing ringlemann effect
67
Ringlemann effect
when the individual effort within a group reduces with group size
68
social loafing
the individual loss of motivation in a team as a result of the lack of performance identification
69
causes of social loafing
lack of confidence in own ability unnatural position poor leadership lack of performance identification
70
Vealey model of sports confidence
confidence gained in one area of sport can be used to improve confidence in a different area
71
Competitive orientation
the degree to which a performer is attracted to challenging situations
72
What ideas did Vealey combine
trait and state confidence
73
Trait confidence
The degree of certainty individuals “usually” possess about their ability to succeed, which is innate and inherited.
74
State confidence
The belief of certainty individuals possess at a “particular moment” about their ability to succeed.
75
If a skill has been performed in the past successfully (vealey)
State and trait confidence will be high
76
Vealeys model (image)
77
Self-efficacy (confidence) (theorist)
Bandura
78
Self-efficacy suggests that confidence..
may vary moment to moment depending on the situation
79
Self-efficacy definition
the belief to master a specific sporting situation
80
Factors affecting Self-efficacy
performance accomplishments (past Ws/Ls) vicarious experience (watching people take dubs) verbal persuasion (praise from coach) emotional arousal
81
Types of leaders
prescribed and emergent
82
Qualities of a leader
charisma communication experience inspirational
83
What 3 styles of leadership did Lewin identify
Autocratic Democratic Laissez-faire
84
Autocratic leadership and characteristics
task oriented style where the leader dicates instructions beginners high danger short for time hostile group Things are going good/bad
85
Democratic leadership and characteristics
person oriented style where the leader seeks opinions from the group to aid decision making experienced group good relationships respected opinions
86
Laissez-faire leadership and characteristics
the leader does very little and leaves the group to it common more so within autonomous learners leader acts a consultant can potentially showcase emergent leaders
87
Fiedler's Contingency Model
Either task centred or person centred
88
What impacts Fiedler's Contingency Model
a favourable situation
89
Why would a leader adopt a task centred approach (FCM)
good or bad result high levels of danger short for time
90
Why would a leader adopt a person centred approach (FCM)
good cohesion things are going moderately well (midtable) experienced group small group opinions need to be valued by leader
91
most favourable situation
leader commands respect high motivation task is clear high ability harmony within group
92
least favourable situation
little respect for coach low motivation task is unclear low ability hostile group
93
Chelladurai's Multi-dimensional Model of Leadership
if required, actual and preferred behaviour all match, the performance will be optimised
94
Attentional control and cue utilisation
a consequence of stress is that the performer may focus on the wrong stimuli (lose concentration)
95
Attentional narrowing
stress and arousal ↑ ability to take in new information ↓
96
Cue utilisation
the ability to process information is linked to the level of arousal
97
High arousal consequences on information
narrow attentional field and info missed
98
moderate arousal consequences on information
relevant information recieved
99
low arousal consequences on information
broad attention field, overloaded information and may lead to confusion
100
Nideffer suggestion
choose an attentional style to match the situation
101
what are the attentional styles
broad (when multiple cues identified) narrow (when it's best to focus on a few cues) external (info drawn from environment) internal (within)
102
narrow and internal attentional style
mental practise of one or two cues
103
attribution theory
the perception of the reason for an outcome of an event
104
narrow and external attentional style
mental analysis of one or two cues
105
Locus of causality (theorist)
Weiner
106
Locus of causality (Weiner) reasons for winning and losing
internal and external (causality of te attributes)
107
example of internal weiners
if you played well
108
example of external weiners
if the result was down to a referees decision
109
Stability dimension
reasons for winning and losing can be stable or unstable
110
Locus of causality diagram
111
Attribution relationship with effort
attribution can promote task persistance
112
Self-serving bias
winning: attributed towards the individual (stable and internal) losing: attributed towards external factors such as luck or the ref (unstable and external) helps promote self esteem
113
when losing, what happens if attributed internal or stable
lose motivation
114
Learned helplessness
performer begins to doubt they can complete the task (internal and stable) developed through negative feedback and criticism as a result of lack of success
115
Attribution retraining
strategy employed by coach to move attribution towards external and unstable factors
116
the coach can use attribution retraining through
motivation by reinforcement set achievable and easy goals stress any personal improvements point out if opponents are higher difficulty
117
learned helplessness is linked to
confidence
118
cognitive stress management
imagery visualisation and positive self talk may help avoid learned helplessness
119
somatic stress management
centring (realigning breathing) may help avoid learned helplessness
120
mastery orientation
A state of mind where confidence is high belief in their own ability, success is repeatable and stable failure is temporary and changeable
121
What happens to if the outcome of an event is attributed wrongfully
wrong attribution exacerbated low confidence possible learned helplessness
122
What happens to if the outcome of an event is attributed correctly
correct attributions enhanced confidence mastery orientation (state of mind where confidence is high)
123
Drawback of insight learning (evaluation)
does help to develop cognitive processes for associative learners.
