Advances in motivation in sport and exercise
Much like its predecessor, Motivation in sport and exercise, Advances in motivation in sport and exercise brings together several top scholars in sport and exercise psychology to present the latest information on motivational behavior in exercise, physical education, and sport. Each contributor sheds new light on the process of motivation and the variables and constructs that help us to understand why we are motivated or are not motivated. This extensive resource examines key motivational concepts such as: self-efficacy, perceived competence, achievement goals, self-determination, and perception of control
