concentration - ANSWER_____________is a state of focused attention on task and
is resistant to distraction from irrelevant external or internal stimuli.
sequential - ANSWERIn the pendular perspectives of team formation, the team
forming process is proposed to oscillate across stages like a pendulum swings, and
not progress in a __________ fashion.
formal - ANSWER__________ roles are those explicitly dictated by an organization.
norming - ANSWERIn the linear perspectives of team formation, __________ is a
stage that involves group buy-in and acceptance of roles.
task - ANSWER__________ cohesion involves cohesion in the technical domain of
sport.
disbanding - ANSWERIn the cyclical perspectives of team formation, __________ is
a stage that is not considered in linear perspectives and involves the end of a team.
discovery - ANSWERWith ___________ learning, athletes are given time to figure
out, on their own, how to successfully perform a skill.
explicit - ANSWERWith ___________ learning, the coach provides the athlete with
specific, step by step instructions on how to successfully perform a skill.
analogy - ANSWERWith ___________ learning, the coach provides the athlete an
example or an illustration of what the movement should be like (ex. throw a football
like you're pouring out a cup of water)
errorless - ANSWERWith ___________ learning, a task is modified to increase the
likelihood of successful performance.
stable; internal - ANSWERAbility is considered a(n) _______ and ________ attribute
outcome goal orientation - ANSWERJoe is always concerned with comparing his
ability to others and to winning. Joe thus has a:
, perceived competence - ANSWERWhich of the following is not a stage of
achievement motivation development? (autonomous competence, perceived
competence, integrated stage, or social competence)
high - ANSWERlow achievers seek out performance situations in which there is a
high or low likelihood of success
competitiveness - ANSWER"A disposition to strive for satisfaction when making
comparisons with a standard of excellence in the presence of evaluative others" is
the definition of:
past performance accomplishmnents - ANSWERThe strongest and most
dependable information on which to base self-efficacy judgments comes from
_______________.
performance; self-efficacy - ANSWERSubstantial research indicates that although
these two factors influence one another, __________ exerts more influence on
__________ .
controllable - ANSWERIrregardless of whether a performance was successful or
unsuccessful, Attribution Theory asserts that all desirable attributions will possess a
__________ component.
change; protected - ANSWERDue to the uncontrollable nature of attributing a
performance outcome to Luck, such an attribution would never be completely ideal.
However if a Failure outcome was attributed to a case of "bad luck," the performer's
self-efficacy would likely benefit, at least short-term, because the source of the
failure is likely to _________(change/occur again) in the future and the performer's
ego would likely be _________ (depleted/protected).
attribution theory - ANSWERSelf-efficacy training aimed at improving performers
explanations of why successes or failures occurred is self-efficacy training based on
principles of __________.
embodied cognition - ANSWERSelf-efficacy training aimed at modifying performers'
perceptions by adjusting their overt behaviors (postures, dress, expressions, etc.) is
self-efficacy training based on principles of __________.
social learning - ANSWERSelf-efficacy training aimed at modifying performers'
perceptions of efficacy by having them observe ideal, modeled behaviors, is self-
efficacy training based on principles of __________.
verbal persuasion - ANSWERSelf-efficacy training aimed at influencing performers'
perceptions of efficacy by controlling the feedback they receive, is self-efficacy
training based on principles of __________.
instructional; motivational - ANSWERAccording to Hardy (2006), the general
functions of self-talk include _________ and __________.
