Examination of the psychometric properties of the Perceived Motivational Climate in Sport Questionnaire - 2 in a sample of female athletes
TL;DR: Internal consistency was found to be acceptable for the higher-order scales and subscales (with the exception of the Intra-Team Member Rivalry subscale) and evidence for the concurrent validity of the instrument was found.

Coping in sport: A systematic review.
Adam R. Nicholls,Remco Polman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors systematically review the literature on coping in sport, examining evidence for both the trait and process perspectives, the types of coping strategies used by athletes, and propose a systematic review on coping strategies in sport.
Coping in sport: a systematic review
Adam R. Nicholls,Remco Polman +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence was found to support three of the different models of coping effectiveness (goodness-of-fit approach, choice of coping strategy, and automacity), and future research should address some of the methodological and measurement limitations of the sport psychology coping literature.

A social-cognitive approach to motivation and personality
Carol S. Dweck,Ellen L. Leggett +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a research-based model that accounts for these patterns in terms of underlying psychological processes, and place the model in its broadest context and examine its implications for our understanding of motivational and personality processes.

Motivational processes affecting learning.
TL;DR: In this article, Dweck describes adaptive and maladaptive motivational patterns and presents a research-based model of motivational processes and argues that this approach has important implications for practice and the design of interventions to change maladaptative motivational processes, and observes that empirically based interventions may prevent current achievement discrepancies.

A reliability coefficient for maximum likelihood factor analysis
Ledyard R Tucker,Charles Lewis +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a reliability coefficient is proposed to indicate quality of representation of interrelations among attributes in a battery by a maximum likelihood factor analysis, which can indicate that an otherwise acceptable factor model does not exactly represent the interrelations between the attributes for a population.

Goodness-of-fit indexes in confirmatory factor analysis : The effect of sample size
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of sample size on different goodness-of-fit indices used in confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was examined and the results are consistent with the observation that the amount of random, unexplained variance varies inversely with sample size.
