Individual psychological differences that influence high school athlete sport performance
Started Apr. 27, 2023
Abstract or project description
Isabella would like to write a review paper on the individual psychological differences that influence high school athlete sport performance. She would like to compare and contrast different sport environments (team or individual sport) as well. We'll focus on different psychological factors that might influence sport success, including conscientiousness, extroversion, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and self-efficacy. Lastly, she will talk about how we can apply this information to help athletes and coaches in the future.
