Abstract
ABSTRACT We explored antecedents of performance errors, where such errors are defined as unintended deviations from specified standards. The context of our examination was collegiate football, with participants that were position players on the offensive line. Performance errors were operationalized as false starts. Using data from archival sources and primary data collection, we explored the potential effects of several individual attributes that have been previously theorized as antecedents of performance errors. These attributes included perceptual-cognitive skill, general mental ability, personality traits, self-regulatory foci, and regulation of emotion. Significant effects were revealed across the various individual attributes leading to incidents of performance error. Implications for future research and practice on performance errors are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Human Performance publishes research investigating the nature and role of performance in the workplace and in organizational settings and offers a rich variety of information going beyond the study of traditional job behavior. Dedicated to presenting original research, theory, and measurement methods, the journal investigates individual, team, and firm level performance factors that influence work and organizational effectiveness. Human Performance is a respected forum for behavioral scientists interested in variables that motivate and promote high-level human performance, particularly in organizational and occupational settings. The journal seeks to identify and stimulate relevant research, communication, and theory concerning human capabilities and effectiveness. It serves as a valuable intellectual link between such disciplines as industrial-organizational psychology, individual differences, work physiology, organizational behavior, human resource management, and human factors.
