ABSTRACT:
The purpose of this study was to empirically examine the first three stages of Taylor and Demick's (1994) multidimensional model of momentum in sport. Specifically, this investigation examined stage two which predicts that a precipitating momentum event would produce corresponding changes in cognition, affect, and physiology. Stage three prediction of a resultant change in behavior was examined by assessing persistence. Participants' affect, arousal, self-efficacy; and degree of persistence were assessed during the performance of a basketball shooting task. Two-way repeated measure ANOVAs examined the data for changes between positive, neutral, and negative momentum groups in affect, arousal, and self-efficacy A one-way ANOVA with persistence as the dependent variable was used to determine differences in the momentum groups. Results supported the stage two hypothesis that changes in momentum would lead to corresponding changes in cognition, but did not support the prediction that momentum would lead to changes in persistence. Thus, results provide initial support for the multidimensional model of momentum and indicate that further research is warranted.
