Download or read book Burnout, Motivation, and Perceived Coaching Behavior in Female Intercollegiate Athletes written by Mallory Elizabeth Mann and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this paper was to determine if athletes' perceptions of their coaches' behaviors contributed to variations in their experiences of burnout over the course of a season. A secondary purpose of this study was to examine whether or not changes in athlete burnout levels across the competitive year corresponded with differences in motivational orientation profiles. Results showed that certain perceived coaching behaviors did, in fact, explain, at least in part, the increase in burnout levels that a small number of athletes reported throughout the season. It is also significant to note that, in relation to the secondary purpose of this study, changes in motivation (i.e. moving from self-determined to non self-determined motivational styles) as the season progressed were predictive of an increase in burnout levels.
Book Synopsis The Influence of Perceived Coaching Behaviors and Perfectionism on Types of Motivation and Burnout by : Kelly M. Barcza
Download or read book The Influence of Perceived Coaching Behaviors and Perfectionism on Types of Motivation and Burnout written by Kelly M. Barcza and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Only amotivation and the perceived coaching behavior of excessive personal control had a direct effect to burnout. The data presented supports previous research that has found amotivation to be a potential indicator of burnout (Cresswell & Eklund, 2005a; Cresswell & Eklund, 2005b; Lonsdale, Hodge, & Rose, 2009). However, the current study suggests that perceived coaching behaviors, specifically excessive personal control, might also influence the level of burnout an athlete is experiencing. Further research should be conducted to determine other possible precursors of burnout.
Book Synopsis Unpacking the Coach-Athlete Relationship by : Ryan Troy Sappington

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 40 years, the field of sport psychology has generated a growing body of literature on the coach-athlete relationship, driven by the recognition that the quality of this dyad can play an important role in an athlete's experiences in sport. Despite strong evidence suggesting that Self-Determination Theory (SDT) accurately reflects processes within this relationship, which promote or undermine intrinsic motivation, there is room to deepen contemporary understandings of coach-athlete dyads by assessing the role of athlete individual differences within this theory. Sixty-seven male athletes (ages 12-18) and 3 male coaches participated in the current study, which set out to cultivate a more nuanced understanding of coach-athlete relationships in a high-level youth athletic academy. Questionnaires measuring preferences for, and perceptions of, coaching behavior, psychological coping skills, psychological needs satisfaction, motivation, and burnout were administered at the beginning and end of the fall season. Results gleaned from correlations, multiple regressions and mediational analyses variably supported the study's main hypotheses. Processes consistent with SDT were evident, as a dimension of perceived coaching behavior predicted needs satisfaction, which in turn, predicted levels of motivation and burnout. Finally, and most importantly, results showed that athletes' psychological coping skills predicted their perceptions of coaching behavior, and outcomes related to needs satisfaction, motivation, and burnout. The current paper also discusses implications of these findings for research and applied practice in sport psychology, and provides recommendations for future avenues of study.

Book Synopsis The Effect of Coach Expectations on Female Athletes' Motivation to Play by : Megan Matthews Buning
Download or read book The Effect of Coach Expectations on Female Athletes' Motivation to Play written by Megan Matthews Buning and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concurrent, embedded mixed methods study used predominantly quantitative analyses to examine coach expectations and behaviors on female athletes' intrinsic motivation to play softball. Qualitative methods in the form of structured, open-ended questions were used to enhance the data by examining athletes' perceptions of coaching behavior and changes in motivation and competence levels. A cluster sampling technique was used to randomly select 20 Division I softball teams competing in the United States. The resulting quantitative participant sample included 174 female collegiate athletes ranging in age from 18-22 years old, and 20 male and female head coach participants ranging in age from 24-60 plus years. Qualitative procedures involved inductive content analysis of interview responses from 41 female collegiate softball athletes. A structured interview protocol was followed to answer the research questions of how do female athletes' perceive head coaches affect intrinsic motivation to play softball for their current team, and specifically, what types of coaching behaviors do athletes perceive to alter their motivation to play softball? Results of this study indicate coaches do form expectations about athletes' performance ability, and coaching behaviors differed between expectancy groups. Competence and motivation levels remained constant over the course of the study, but expectancy groups were motivated differently. Low expectancy athletes were more extrinsically motivated, and showed trends of higher levels of amotivation than high and average expectancy athletes. High expectancy athletes showed trends indicating more intrinsic motivation overall. Low expectancy athletes perceived more ignoring, or non-rewarding, behaviors than other athletes. Athletes experienced a decrease in encouragement and corrective instruction from pre- to post-study. Overall, athletes reported aspects of the perceived coach-athlete relationship affected competence and motivation the most. Relationships characterized by open, direct, clear communication were the biggest positive influence on motivation and competence. Other coach strategies including emphasis of athlete's personal best, actions display confidence in the athlete's performance ability, and encouragement after performance attempts emerged as important factors enhancing athlete self-perception variables. Relationships characterized by unclear or no communication had the biggest negative influence on motivation and competence.
Book Synopsis Exploring the Relationship Between Athletic Injury and Coaching Behavior by : Sarah Anne Halbert
Download or read book Exploring the Relationship Between Athletic Injury and Coaching Behavior written by Sarah Anne Halbert and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few research studies have suggested that collegiate coaches may be important people in regard to injured athletes' ability to cope with the emotional stress of injury and to successfully re-enter the sport context. Given the lack of research on coaches' role in the athletic injury process, the current research project was designed to: (a) identify and describe the attitudes and behaviors that coaches exhibit towards injured athletes and to (b) determine if particular types of coaching leadership styles are related to their attitudes and behaviors towards injured athletes. Self-report questionnaires were administered to 416 collegiate athletes to measure their perceptions of the motivational climate their coaches create and their perceptions as to how their coaches behave towards injured athletes on their team. Univariate and multivariate statistical analyses revealed a strong link between the team's motivational climate and athletes' perceptions of their coaches' behavior towards injured athletes.
Book Synopsis The Competitive Ethos and Democratic Education by : John G. Nicholls
Download or read book The Competitive Ethos and Democratic Education written by John G. Nicholls and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young children and even infants work hard at mastering various kills and show spontaneous pleasure at their own accomplishment. John Nicholls explores the conditions that cause students to lose their unselfconscious involvement in a game or task and become concerned with how they are stacking up against others. Charting the development of children's concepts of luck, effort, and ability, he argues that with age they are increasingly prone to take superiority over others as the definition of success. An emphasis on interpersonal competition, which permeates Western society, exacerbates this egotistical tendency and results in diminished accomplishment and alienation from school. To overcome these problems, Nicholls argues, we must "become as little children" for whom absorption in exploration and accomplishment come naturally, even when those around them are more competent. This ideal is unlikely to be promoted through technical approaches to education, or by the current emphasis on the role of education in economic development. Instead, Nicholls calls for a progressive approach to education. Difficult though it is to implement, this approach is most likely to increase equality of motivation for intellectual development, substantial accomplishment, satisfaction in work, and more productive relations with others. These are important ideas for anyone interested in achievement motivation, for those professionally involved in education, and for nonspecialists interested in, or worried about, how we educate our children.

Book Synopsis ASSOCIATION OF COACH, PEER, AND PARENT-INITIATED MOTIVATIONAL CLIMATE WITH BURNOUT AND ENGAGEMENT. by : Jordan Barbee
Download or read book ASSOCIATION OF COACH, PEER, AND PARENT-INITIATED MOTIVATIONAL CLIMATE WITH BURNOUT AND ENGAGEMENT. written by Jordan Barbee and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport participation can be an engaging experience and result in health benefits, skill development, and social camaraderie. However, it can also result in negative outcomes such as burnout. Burnout is negatively associated with sport engagement and the quality of athlete experiences. It also contributes to the reasons why athletes discontinue sport and negatively impacts their well-being. Research has shown that burnout and engagement are potentially influenced by social agents (e.g. parents, peers, and coaches) such as through the motivational climate they create. A mastery climate is one in which success is defined in terms of selfreferenced standards of excellence with a focus on improvement, mistakes being viewed as a part of learning, and effort. Within a performance climate, success is defined in terms of social comparison and outperforming others. This can result in intra-team rivalries and conflict. Although research has shown that the motivational climate created by social agents impacts athletes sport experiences, few studies have examined whether the climate created by coaches, parents, or peers has the strongest association with burnout and engagement. Therefore, the first purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of the motivational climate created by coaches, parents, and peers with engagement and burnout. The second purpose was to determine which social agent is the strongest predictor of athlete engagement and burnout. Following student activities coordinator and coach approval, 150 high school athletes completed surveys on athlete engagement and burnout, along with surveys assessing athlete perceptions of the motivational climate created by coaches, parents, and peers. Correlational analyses were used to examine the relationship of athlete engagement and burnout with motivational climate while regression analyses were used to determine which social agent's motivational climate had the strongest association with burnout and engagement. Overall, a mastery climate created by coaches and peers had significant (p[less-than]0.05), small to moderate relationships with the devaluation and reduced sense of accomplishment dimension of burnout (i.e., r = -.22 to -.44), and engagement (i.e., r = .21 to .37). A parent mastery climate was found to be unrelated to burnout and had small, significant relationships with engagement (i.e., r = .21 to .27). The relationship between performance climates created by the social agents with burnout and engagement were smaller in magnitude compared to the mastery climates (r= -.10 to .19). When all three social agents were examined together, the motivational climates collectively explained 13.3% of the variance for overall burnout and 29.3% of the variance for overall engagement. When examining individual subscales, the most variance in burnout was reduced accomplishment (r2 = 0.26), followed by devaluation (r2= 0.13) and exhaustion (r2 = 0.06). For engagement each subscale was similar to overall engagement (r2= 0.20 to r2= 0.23). It was found that the mastery climates created by coaches and peers predicted lower burnout scores whereas the climate created by parents was not a significant predictor. Mastery climates created by all three social agents were predictive (p[less-than]0.05) of higher engagement with peers having stronger associations compared to coaches and parents. The extent to which parents and peers created a performance climate was unrelated to burnout or engagement. Contrary to predictions, a coach created performance climate was linked to higher engagement, but the relationship was small in magnitude (partial r= 0.18). Overall, when high school athletes perceived that their coaches and peers created a mastery climate, they reported higher engagement and lower burnout. A mastery climate in which success is defined by on effort, learning, and improvement should be created by coaches, parents and peers for athletes to experience high engagement and low burnout.

Book Synopsis The Relationship of Perceived Autonomy-supportive Coaching Behavior with Motivation Among High School Athletes by : Chelsea J. Burrell
Download or read book The Relationship of Perceived Autonomy-supportive Coaching Behavior with Motivation Among High School Athletes written by Chelsea J. Burrell and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Recent literature suggests that coaches play a significant role in creating a climate that fosters self-determined motivation among athletes. Coaching style influences athlete perception, motivation, and performance. Research supports that an autonomy-supportive coaching style is an effective motivational tool for coaches, whereas a controlling coaching style is ineffective. Previous research has shown that an autonomy-supportive interpersonal style increases self-determined motivation among athletes. However, previous research typically includes only one interpersonal coaching style. In addition, there is minimal research looking at needs satisfaction mediating the relationship between coaching behavior and athlete motivation through the SDT continuum. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of autonomy-supportive and controlling coaching behaviors with high school athletes' motivation as well as needs satisfaction. High school athletes from the Western region of North Carolina (n=162) completed the Coach Behavior Scale in Sport, Controlling Coach Behavior Scale, Behavior Regulation in Sport Questionnaire, and the Basic Needs Satisfaction Sport Scale. Correlations and multiple regression analyses were used to analyze relationships among coaching behaviors, needs satisfaction, and motivation. The hypotheses were 1) autonomy-supportive coaching behavior is positively related to higher forms of self-determined motivation and needs satisfaction, 2) controlling coaching behavior is negatively related to self-determined forms of motivation and needs satisfaction, and3) needs satisfaction mediates the relationship between coaching behavior and athlete motivation. As predicted, autonomy-supportive coaching behavior was positively and significantly correlated with higher forms of self-determined motivation (intrinsic: r=.463; integrated: r=.512; and identified: r=.558), whereas controlling coaching behavior was positively and significantly correlated with more extrinsic forms of motivation (external: r=.411 and amotivation: r=.279). Autonomy-supportive coaching behavior was positively correlated with all three needs (competence: r=.479, autonomy: r=.583, and relatedness: r=.582), and in turn, the three needs positively predicted higher forms of self-determined motivation. Multiple regression results indicate that the relationships of autonomy-supportive and controlling coaching behaviors with motivation are partially mediated by perceived needs satisfaction, but the relationships differed for different forms of motivation. Evidence for mediation was strongest for intrinsic motivation, and for integrated motivation and identified motivation, autonomous coach behavior added to the prediction suggesting the relationship was not fully mediated by needs satisfaction. For external regulation, controlling coaching behavior was a strong direct predictor with no evidence of mediation. The results indicate that autonomy-supportive coaching behavior predicts need satisfaction and enhances athlete motivation whereas controlling coaching behavior reduces self-determined motivation. Therefore, coaches are advised to use strategies that promote autonomy, such as providing options, giving athletes opportunities to make decisions, and allowing athletes to feel involved."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Book Synopsis Perfectionism, Health, and Well-Being by : Fuschia M. Sirois
Download or read book Perfectionism, Health, and Well-Being written by Fuschia M. Sirois and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the world’s leading perfectionism researchers and theorists to present their latest findings and ideas on how and why perfectionism may confer risks or benefits for health and well-being, as well as the contexts which may shape these relationships. In addition to providing an overview of the latest research in this field, this volume explores new conceptual models that may help further our understanding of when, how, and why perfectionism may be implicated in health and well-being. After presenting an overview of the conceptual and measurement issues surrounding the concepts of perfectionism, health, and well-being, three sections address the implications of perfectionism for health and well-being. The first of these sections provides an overview of research and theory on the role of perfectionism in health and illness, health behaviors, and chronic illness. The next section of the book focuses on the cognitive and affective underpinnings of perfectionism as they relate to psychopathology, distress, and well-being, including how it applies to eating disorders, depression, and anxiety. The final section of the book explores specific contexts and how they may contour the associations of perfectionism with health and well-being, such as in the domains of interpersonal relationships, academic pursuits, and work-related settings. Perfectionism and wellbeing is a topic not just for researchers and scholars, but clinicians and practitioners as well. For this reason, chapters also include a discussion of prevention and treatment issues surrounding perfectionism where relevant. By doing so, this volume is an important resource for not only researchers, but also for those who may wish to use it in applied and clinical settings. By presenting the latest theory and research on perfectionism, health, and well-being with a translational focus, Perfectionism, Health, and Well-Being makes a unique and significant contribution to perfectionism as well as general wellness literature, and highlights the need to address the burden of perfectionism for health and well-being. .
