Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2016/Intrinsic versus extrinsic motivation in athlete doping

Comments
Hi, Page looks great. Just thought maybe for your overview when you outline the problem you could mention athletes as role models as an ethical concern. Perhaps touch on health risks associated with doping, for the individual, and for the opponents in contact sports like football and combat sports.

Hi there.

I've noticed no one has added any contributions to your page and thought I could be of some assistance. Based on your title, I gather that you will focusing quite heavily on intrinsic versus extrinsic forms of motivation. In tutorials a few weeks ago, I remember James saying something about looking at Deci & Ryans (2000) taxonomy of motivation if you were focusing on either intrinsic or extrinsic motivation. It is a really good starting point for looking at the continuum of motivation, rather than viewing intrinsic and extrinsic motivation as two dichotomous states. I had a quick look through your reference list and noticed that you didn't have it listed as a reference.

Here is the full reference which you can easily access through Google Scholar, or alternatively, through a brief summary and model are provided in the Reeve (2015) textbook Ryan, R. M., & Deci, E. L. (2000). Intrinsic and extrinsic motivations: Classic definitions and new directions. Contemporary educational psychology, 25(1), 54-67. doi: 10.1006/ceps.1999.1020

Hope this helps you somehow. Good luck with the chapter - looking forward to reading further --U3100481 (discuss • contribs) 02:43, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey, Interesting topic. I have attached an article that uses the self-determination model to predict doping motivation and intention in young athletes. The article attempts to explain the relationship between motivation in a sporting context and motivation and the social-cognitive factors (attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, and intention) from the theory of planned behavior (TPB) in an anti-doping context. I hope it helps and look forward to reading your chapter. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1440244014000668--U3090066 (discuss • contribs) 15:15, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello I have found an article discussing about psychological (intrinsic motivation, perfectionism) and social factors (eg,being in contact with someone also using doping)correlating with doping. http://www.sciencedirect.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/science/article/pii/S095539591400214X--U3121927 (discuss • contribs) 09:34, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Good use of images! I love that you straight away explain doping in a very clear way. However, I would consider rephrasing this sentence "Doping is forbidden in majority of professional competitions, as it is a highly unethical practice that leads to unfairness and inequality in the field." I just think it sounds a bit clunky. Maybe you could say something like, "Doping is unethical as it leads to unfairness and inequality, and is thus forbidden in the majority of professional competitions."

I think you should reconsider you box that links to the anti-doping figures. It looks a bit out of place and I think it would work just as well if you included the link within the text.

This sentence "Motivation is described as being eager and activated towards different activities or behaviours." could be changed to sound a little more professional. "Motivation is defined as" sound better, I think.

Otherwise, an excellent chapter!
