Team motivation

Does the way players are treated by teamates during a game situation affect their motivation during performance, and consequently, affect the match outcome? If so, what explanations can be offered as a result?

Dear Nick,

This is an interesting question that you posed...I am currently working on a research project investigating some aspects of this question. You may want to check out articles written by Carol Dweck and associates regarding achievement motivation and attributional theories. Good luck! :)
