ABSTRACT:
The present investigation had two purposes: (a) to examine the relationship between mastery and competitive goals for individuals with task (mastery) and ego (competitive) orientations; (b) to examine differences in the goal orientation-performance relationship across different cultures. Subjects were 97 males, all of whom were currently participating in vigorous physical activity. Subjects were classified as either high or low on task and ego goal orientation using the Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire (Duda & Nicholls, 1990). Subjects were then assigned to one of four goal setting conditions which instructed subjects to compete against themselves (Mastery) or against another person (Competitive) on a 1600m run: (a) Competitive/Pairs; (b) Mastery/Single; (c) Mastery Pairs; (d) Competiton Plus Mastery/Pairs. Results of the analysis of covariance revealed that the Competiton/Pairs and Competiton Mastery conditions performed significantly better than the Mastery/Single and Mastery/Pairs conditions. The results are discussed in terms of the goal orientation literature and future directions for research are offered.
