Bouncing back from failure: The interactive impact of perceived controllability and stability on self-efficacy beliefs and future task performance

Abstract: There is limited empirical evidence of the relationship between attributions following failure and subsequent task performance. Two studies manipulated the perceived controllability and stability of causes of initial task failure and explored the impact of these factors on perceptions of self-efficacy and follow-up performance. Consistent with previous attributional and social identity theorising, an induced belief that failure was both beyond control and unlikely to change led to lower self-efficacy and worse… Show more

“…However, only the dimensions communication-attention skills, and making the responsibility clear are significantly higher among the athletes who are very dissatisfied with their progress in sport compared to those who are dissatisfied (Table 4). A possible explanation might be that these athletes are learned helpless, and take personal responsibility for their lack of progress in sport (Coffee, Rees, & Haslam, 2009). However, this is only speculations and needs to be further explored in future studies.…”

“…Recently, Rees and colleagues (Coffee & Rees, 2008a, 2008b, 2011Coffee, Rees, & Haslam, 2009;Rees, 2007) have shown that, following success, efficacy beliefs increase when outcomes are attributed to causes that are perceived to generalise across time (stable) and/or situations (global) and/or are perceived as unique to the individual (personal); following failure, efficacy beliefs decrease when perceptions of uncontrollability are perceived to generalise across time and/or situations.…”

“…Here, research has demonstrated that social identity and membership of multiple groups enhances resilience in the face of pain, and also aids heart rate recovery in athletes following winter sports training [179]. Furthermore, the extent to which athletes can bounce back from performance failures may be dependent on them receiving feedback from a person who is seen to be "one of us" (i.e., an ingroup member) [180,181]. In light of this evidence, and work demonstrating that social identity predicts better coping with transitions and life challenges [182,183], one would also Social Identity Approach to Sport 22 expect social identity to play a role in sport injury recovery [184], the dynamics of sporting burnout [185], and the negotiation of career transitions in sport [186].…”
