Motivation and Action

By Jutta Heckhausen and Heinz Heckhausen

Motivation and volition play a central role in sports. Achievement motivation is of course indispensable for competitive athletes. Whereas the affiliation motive is a central trait for the motivation of recreational athletes, it seems to be more of a disadvantage to competitive athletes. Therefore, volitional inhibition of the of the affiliation motive might lead to better performance in competitive situations.

Volition (self regulation) is a component that is required for enduring exhaustion in training sessions as well as the stressful conditions athletes face in competitions. Thus, sport psychological interventions focus on self-regulation to a great deal. Strategies of self-regulation can be acquired through practice. However, volition (or self-regulation ability) is apparently also boosted by the circumstances of (competitive) athletic contexts themselves. For example, attending schools with a focus on sports.
