B 1.2 Discuss social learning theory and personality.
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology Option B Sport Psychology B 1.2 Discuss social learning theory and personality. The components are as follows: Sub-topics 1. Individual Differences Social learning theory states that we have a capacity to learn by observation even in the absence of rewards. It further emphasizes our individual capacity to influence our destiny and try to achieve our potential. Structures of social learning theory are mainly cognitive. There are four areas of social learning theory. 2. Motivation

Sport Psychology B 1.2 Discuss social learning theory and personality.
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 1.2 Discuss social learning theory and personality. Option B Sport Psychology Competencies and skills. Bandura argues that how we are perceived by others is influenced by our own feelings of competence. Believes and expectancies. Believes relate to how world is while expectancy is concerned whether an individual things will happen in the future. A subcategory is what the world should be like. This type of thinking concerns evaluating the word and quality of a particular event. KeyPoint: for self improvement to occur a person needs to hold a believe about an action they perform, have expectations as to the outcome of that action and think about what the execution of that action should be like. Sub-topics 1. Individual Differences 2. Motivation

IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 1.2 Discuss social learning theory and personality. Option B Sport Psychology Behavioral standards. Just as a 'standard' alone is for judging the goodness or worth of a person. KeyPoint : Behavioral standards are standards concerning one's self for personal standards and personal standards are fundamental to human motivation and performance. "Am I a good person?" We either meet our standards or we fail them. Goals In order to influence change in our personalities we have to identify and realize goals. Sub-topics 1. Individual Differences 2. Motivation

B 1.3 Discuss the interactionist approach to personality.
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology Option B Sport Psychology B 1.3 Discuss the interactionist approach to personality. Sub-topics Kurt Lewin became one of the most influential social psychologist of this century. He suggested that neither nature nor nurture can I count for an individual's behavior and personality. He proposes that our personalities are developed through a constant attraction between a person and their environment. His equation is behavior is a function of the person and their environment. B=f(P,E) Key point: exercise psychologist need to be aware of the affect the environment is having on the individual The individuals experience says cannot be understood if personal and situational factors are separated. 1.

B 1.3 Discuss the interactionist approach to personality.
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 1.3 Discuss the interactionist approach to personality. Option B Sport Psychology Emergenesis A trait is called emergenic if a specific combination of several genes interact. Epigenetics The study of why and how genes interact with the environment and in turn shape human behavior. The more contemporary model by Walter Michelle is: Competencies - our skills and knowledge Encoding strategies - our particular style and the schemas we use in processing information. Expectancies - what we expect from our own behavior and our anticipations of our performance levels. Plans - what we intend to do Sub-topics 1. Individual Differences 2. Motivation

IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.3 Discuss the issues associated with the use of intrinsic and extrinsic motivators in sports and exercise. Topic 2 Exercise physiology Combining intrinsic and extrinsic motivators The additive principle suggests that intrinsic motivation can be boosted by extrinsic motivators. This may not be a good idea in fact some situations where the task is being performed because of intrinsic motivation extrinsic rewards can lower the person’s intrinsic motivation. Controlling rewards and informational rewards Controlling rewards include praise and trophies and are given to influence and individuals behavior informational rewards on the other hand convey information about an individual competence at a particular task. Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation

IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.3 Discuss the issues associated with the use of intrinsic and extrinsic motivators in sports and exercise. Topic 2 Exercise physiology Rewards preceded by the recipient as controlling decrease intrinsic motivation where as rewards viewed as informational increase intrinsic motivation. Extrinsic rewards seen as controlling of behavior. Extrinsic rewards providing information about their level of performance Extrinsic rewards will enhance intrinsic motivation when the reward provides positive information with regard to the performer’s level of competence Self determination theory Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation

Sport Psychology B 2.5 Outline goal orientation theory
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.5 Outline goal orientation theory Topic 2 Exercise physiology Achievement Goal Theory (Nicholls 1989) proposes that in achievement settings such as sport and exercise, an individual’s main concern is to demonstrate high ability and to avoid demonstrating low ability Two states of goal involvement: Task-involvement Focus on mastery of the task, learning of skills, exerting effort & self-improvement Ego-involvement Focus on demonstrating superior ability compared to others and on winning in competitions with less effort than others An individual’s goal involvement in a particular situation is the combined result of his/her achievement goals and the prevailing situational factors Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation

Sport Psychology B 2.5 Outline goal orientation theory
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.5 Outline goal orientation theory Topic 2 Exercise physiology Task vs. Ego Outcome Orientation Task orientation has been positively related to effort, enjoyment, persistence, satisfaction and interest Eco orientation has been negatively associated with enjoyment and interest and positively related to boredom Duda and Nicholls (1989) developed the “Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire” (TEOSQ) Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation
19
Sport Psychology B 2.5 Outline goal orientation theory
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.5 Outline goal orientation theory Topic 2 Exercise physiology Achievement goal theory has been criticized for having a Western and male bias and for only considering the two goals of task and ego Fontayne et al. (2001) argued that people may hold multiple goals Limiting the study of motivation to the study of task/mastery and ego/social comparison goals could be considered reductionist Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation

IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.6 Describe attribution theory and its application to sports and exercise Topic 2 Exercise physiology Attribution theory – Humans tend to attribute in order to have better understanding of the causes behind actions. Two types of attribution include: Internal and External Internal Attribution: Performance, Characteristics External Attribution: Coach, Environment, Teammates Self-Serving Bias helps explain our tendency to attribute our success to internal factors while attributing our failures to external factors. Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation
21
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.6 Describe attribution theory and its application to sports and exercise Topic 2 Exercise physiology Locus of stability – Associated with stable characteristics (e.g. If you attribute your success to your ability, then it is relatively stable. If you attribute success to your effort, it is unstable, since you can put different amount of effort each time.) Locus of control – The extent to which an individual can influence the outcome (e.g. If you attribute your success to the effort, you have more control to succeed because it’s internal. If you attribute to luck, then you have lower control because it is external.) Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation
22
IB Sports, exercise and health science Sport Psychology B 2.6 Describe attribution theory and its application to sports and exercise Topic 2 Exercise physiology Locus of causality – How we attribute the causes of an event We attribute either internally or externally. (Internal attribution includes performance, characteristics, effort. External attribution includes coach, environment, teammates, or luck) Sub-topics 1.Individual Differences 2.Motivation
