This is not a typical exam style question however it is important that you know how this factor impacts on performance!
From the data you gathered analyse how the emotional factor impacts on performance in your activity? (6 marks)
Introduction:
- Sub factor (Anger)
- Your activity (eg. Badminton)
Postive impact
- Eg 1- Control anger> means I focus on points
- Eg 2- Anger used as motivation made me more determined.
- Eg 3- Channelled my anger into my shots and this allowed me to hit them more powerfully as I was more ‘pumped up’/ filled with adrenaline
Negative
- Eg 1- If I cannot manage my anger I may then make bad decisions for example I may try to hit my shot to hard out of frustration.
- Eg 2- I may not be in the correct from of mind for the next point because I am so angry about a previous mistake I made. This will then impact on my concentration.
- Eg 3- I may lose my temper and receive a warning or point deduction from the umpire as a result of my poor behaviour. (loose marks in my one off performance?!)
